Question about closing a Sell call

Investor summaryNeutral

User confused by discrepancy between displayed market value and actual buy-to-close cost for a short call option.

Post body

I made a sell call last week and collected a prime of $25.

Today when I look it says that market value is -$1.00 so I was thinking on buying back the contract to keep the $24 difference and sell another call.

The weird thing I'm noticing is that when I try tk buy the contract back I need to pay $65.

I am lost. Can someone explian me why is this happening?
