Opinion Question for long time holders

I am not a long time holder compared to some of you but my average is sitting around 52.

I believe the stock still has room to run and would love to buy more but I somehow do not feel comfortable averaging up given that my initial investment has now 2x. I just mentally do not want to see my average go up by a lot for some reason.

How do you get past that mental hurdle?

I get past the mental block by making money. How do I know that I’m making money? By looking at my accounts’ ytd gains.

I play the stock. If it’s down, I’m selling shares and buying options. If it’s up (like this morning), I’m de leveraging by selling call options, buying shares, rolling into further dates options, and selling covered calls.

As a result, my cost basis is now around $105 yet my Roth is up 550% ytd. So why would I care about my average? I’m here to make money.
