Options Cocktail: June 2009

http://optionscocktail.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html

Surfing the waves of volatility. Monday, June 22, 2009. So far, so good. I've got some good news. All my short option positions expired worthless! This month, I'd like to share a little about how I plan on trading options for extra income going forward. Last month I pocketed $2,522.36, thanks to the markets not tanking. Let's see how I plan on making even more this time around. The word is that we're in for a correction. So I may not do as well this time around. AMZN JUL 75 Put. SNDA JUL 45 Put. The way ...

Surfing the waves of volatility. Saturday, December 26, 2009. My trades for the new year. My December puts all expired worthless, and my CMG calls caused my 200 shares to get sold at $85. My positions after expiration consisted of my 900 FUQI shares, my 500 NTES shares, and my 1800 STEC shares, along with the STEC backspread I described last time.

Options Cocktail: A cool book, and an interesting "stock repair" idea

http://optionscocktail.blogspot.com/2009/12/cool-book-and-interesting-stock-repair.html

Surfing the waves of volatility. Sunday, December 13, 2009. A cool book, and an interesting "stock repair" idea. I came across a very interesting book, Options for the Beginner and Beyond. And what if I could get paid to do it? That's what Chapter 16 in Olmstead's book describes. The idea is to sell a call ratio backspread. what's that? It's like a vertical call spread, but we're selling the higher strike in the ratio of 2 to 1 to the lower strike. Here's the trade I put on last Monday:.

So I was carrying the cube half-asleep and it slipped and wham! It hit the floor and the pieces splashed everywhere! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
