LionOption: May 2008
http://lionoption.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
A risk tamed is a reward captured. Tuesday, May 13, 2008. May08 wfmi earnings trade ( 185 308%). Bot 1 may 32 put @.60 with 3 days till expiration. Sold for 2.45. Total gain 1.85 308%. Whole Foods is also facing a slowdown in consumer spending in the U.S. A loyal customer base should help but how much? There is a positive argument as well, that it’s customers might not have been yet hit by slowdown in consumer spending as they are little middle to high class. But how much moat? Profitable trading, OP.

A 'don't try this at home' small time Options "trader". Thursday, December 27, 2007. Buy - 1 GS Jan 210 Put @ 5.50. Usually finds support/resistance at 215. After that level was broken, it wasn't able to get above that. My initial target is 210. Stop loss above 215. Posted by AJ @ 7:56 PM 0 comments. Links to this post. Buy - 1 AAPL Jan 195 Put @ 6.30. Looked a little overbought. My short term target on AAPL. Posted by AJ @ 7:49 PM 0 comments. Links to this post. Saturday, December 22, 2007. Today and mo...

A 'don't try this at home' small time Options "trader". Wednesday, April 01, 2009. Buy to Close 1 FAZ Apr 20 Put @ 4.00 (Sold @ 4.90). Blah was hoping/expecting to make more on this trade. I closed it ahead of the MTM decision. If the market rallies on that news, then FAZ could take a big hit. Just trying to play it safe. Posted by AJ @ 6:36 PM. Comments: Post a Comment.

A 'don't try this at home' small time Options "trader". Thursday, November 29, 2007. Bernanke Hints of Further Rate Cuts. Bernanke seems to be hell bent on kicking the bears in the nuts. Tomorrow could be a strong day. We'll have to see how DELL's earnings affect the day's proceedings. Today's day is what the markets needed, a long deserved rest. We're so used to 3 digit moves these days, that today might have seemed like a boring day to most. It's still very volatile out there, so be careful. Not too su...
