Bought 6000 shares @ 7.35 Sold 40 Feb 19 8.0 calls @ .38
Notice I did NOT sell the entire set of shares as covered. This is a hedge against another sudden rise in SQNM. With this hedge, though I'm still in good shape selling the 8 calls, I can further profit on any sharp rise against the short position. Downside is still there but I think this is a relatively mild play.

Both positions will close today OTM, and I will receive the full premiums. Currently, the play is technically red as SQNM has fallen below what would become my adjusted basis with this dip.
I will add most likely on this dip next week, and prepare to sell another batch of calls on strength.
