The market is breaking a support level so it makes more sense to close and reset the SPY trade that expires tomorrow while we still have a slight profit or slight loss … depending on your fill prices.
We are closing the current double calendar/diagonal and will re-open new leg(s) in the live trading session tomorrow at 10:30 AM Eastern.
With only a day left to expiration the gamma effects make any adjustments minor and often not enough to offset the movement in the market.
