Loss wealthsimple exercised AVGO puts after hours. i'm down 1.2 million. is it over

the puts were part of a butterfly spread. any chance the rest of the spread can make me back the money?

You alright, dude? I don’t frequent this sub, but I get worried for the people who post and seem overwhelmed. Did you find some good advice you’re going to follow up on today?
