Update Transaction - United States Natural Gas (UNG)

While UNG was still hovering around the $12 mark I decided to sell a $12 call for November, which was below the $13 call I had in October, but at this point Im simply trying to exit UNG at a profit. The performance metrics are below:

7/2/2009 -- Sold To Open 1 UNG August $13 Put @ 1.15
8/21/2009 -- Stock Purchase @ $13
8/24/2009 -- Sold To Open 1 UNG October $13 Call @ 0.60
9/2/2009 -- Bought To Open 1 UNG October $8 Put @ .4275
10/16/2009 -- Option Expiration
10/20/2009 -- Sold To Open 1 UNG November $12 Call @ .45


The important purchase metrics are below for insight into possible profit and loss (these all include commissions):
Purchase Price: $1190.00

Possible Max Upside: 6.04%

Annualized Max Upside: 15.61%
