roll to Dec16 2225-2250 -1.8

[venumpro]

Closed IYR at 50% of max profit.

Mexico position is also at 50 % of max profit. Don't know what to do. Hesitant to take it off. Want more $$$$

roll to Dec16 2225-2250 -6.32

Why do you trade SPX? The markets out their are so wide. Did you consider SPY, which is pretty much same thing, but smaller in size? SPY has way better liquidity than SPX.

I don't have any S&P positions now. All action in Russell now. Have 120, 122, 130, 131 and 132 naked calls in IWM I treat it as insurance from expanding volatility. I think this is the best trade for December.

поправил вверху. why? ликвидити, и peace of mind of no early assignment.
незнаю как ты живешь с этим.

I've been assigned 3 times in my life. And trade a lot.
Assignment does not change your risk. You just lose your levarage

Ended up the day with $3.05 in profit. Made money EWW, FXE, TLT, IYR, and GDX. Got killed in IWM, and FXY was a wash. You cannot write it better than that

Sold Dec 114 puts in GLD @ 2.06.

Sold few Dec 119/116 put spreads in TLT @ .94

I'll have to take off Mexico positions. I thing I squeezed everything I could from this play. Volatility in their dropped pretty significantly and I don't see any reason to keep it. I may sell few puts in Jan if prices are OK, but very small. I think the play is over in there. It was best play of November.

It looks to me that all action is in currencies. Selling puts in FXY and FXE looks very attractive.

TLT and gold feel oversold. Have small positions in both underlyings. If they keep going lower will buy more (by selling puts) of each. No hero crap though. Will do it small.

By default, I am short RUT and IWM. But I don't really care about it. Keeping them as insurance against sudden increase in volatility. No positions in SPY and QQQ.

Other than that, no ideas. If you have something interesting, please share

[venumpro]

Closed all Dec puts in EWW, except 46.
Rolled 46 puts to Jan 20 for .67 credit and sold 46 calls.
This is it for Mexico. Position got ten times smaller. It was a great trade

Конец месяца, хорошее время на разбор полётов.

1-го февраля, открыл $12,000 брокерский екаунт для ребёнка. Так вот, интересная статистика получилась:

Number of trades: 1,011
Number of stocks: 54
Profitable: 45
Lost money: 9
Biggest losers: APPL (-$268.00), DIA (-$195.00), IWM (-$193.00)
Biggest winners: SPY (+$1,524), VRX (+$602.00), SPX (+$595.00) TLT (+$480.00), QQQ (+$434.00)

Out of 9 losers, I am still holding positions in GLD, FXE, IWM, and FXY. I expect to make money in all four by the end of the year.

Теперь SPX expirations чаще чем раз в неделю, но не все брокеры показывают промежуточные quotes.

Сегодня всё как по нотам. Рассел - даун, золото - ап, евро и ена - ап ....... solid day. Third best day this year.

Простo забыл про AAPL. На етом счету я практически AAPL не трейдал. Так что результат закономерный.

[venumpro]

TLT, GLD & FXJ positions grew way too big. Used up almost 80% of my buying power on these stocks. Keep buying this crap on every down tick. One more down day in these understandings will hurt.

But greed is not allowing to stop buying them.

Sosnoff опять открывает брокерскую кантору - Tastyworks. Только что пришёл емейл. Интересно, сколько он будет комисионных брать за контракт?

[venumpro]

Sold 117 puts in TLT.

Reached my limit

по моему, более важно, по крайней мере для меня, насколько эффективно будут исполняться заказы. Поскольку это новая контора, то у многих будут сомнения в переводе своих счетов туда, даже при симпатичной платформе.

I signed up for Tastywors just to see how their platform would look like. Their current platform - Dough - a total piece of crap and it is untradeable.
If their platform is better than TOS, I'll give it a shot. I also hope they remove all charting options from their new platform. this feature is completely useless and significantly slowdowns the soft.

ну что господа спикулянты, калитесь кто сколько капусты срубил на этом замечательном lift-off ??
я в минусе.

[venumpro]

Сегодня в минусе, завтра в плюсе

No-brainers: Short Russell/DOW, long Yen, and long gold. After Mexico play, I consider it as the second best trade of the year. Free money
