Updates: Closed out USO for $1.04 credit - winner Closed NFLX strangle for $3.20 debit - winner Rolled short EEM Sep 40 put to 42 put for $0.29 credit New Position - Sold FDX Sep 90 calls for $0.80
Closed BBBY 60 Put for $0.06, will let call expire worthless tomorrow. Closed HPQ 18 Calls for $0.08. That trade is finally over for a nice gain. Rolled GRPN and ZNGA Calls to Oct.
New Position: Sold KBH Sep 15 Calls yesterday, way out of the money for what I thought would be an easy $0.15 overnight. Stock made a huge 16% move today and I let the position go, so will be short shares of KBH at 15 on Monday. Was really pissed off about this so sold the Oct 16 Calls for $0.32, which then went as high as $0.74 and closed at $0.59.
I wasn't even aware of any spam on the blog. Actually I wasn't even sure if anyone besides me was still on this blog - good to hear from you again, hope your trading is going well. I will be doing an update shortly now that Oct. expiry is over.
