I increased my short positions for the KCU C180 and CTZ C75 to normal position size. COT data for both commodities look bearish , and the USDA Report on Tuesday should reflect the jump in planted acreage for cotton from the June 30th update.
Can you help answer these questions

Bought back the cotton calls at a loss of 90 %. The reaction to the USDA report that I expected bearish or neutral was bullish .
