Next Week Trading (Oct 15th):
I'm expecting more volatility this month and big rises in VXX. So, I'll buy more calls on pullbacks. I'll also buy more SPY puts on market bounces. If PDD opens low or falls Monday, I'll buy calls. There may be an opportunity to trade NFLX options after earnings Tuesday and TSLA options after earnings Wednesday, e.g options that expire in a few days. SLB reports earnings Friday. Other oil stocks, e.g. HAL, report earlier in week.
My portfolio is over $340,000 including $148,400 in cash.
Calls Contracts-Shares Long
VXX Nov 24 2021 400
SLB 2,000 shares
Puts Contracts-Shares Short
SPY Nov 450 2021 60
Portfolio at $100,000 on March 1st, 2018. Portfolio stop loss suspended. Scaled up and adjusted portfolio. Both prior portfolios, since early 2000s, rose initially and substantially, and then failed quickly in “irrational” market “melt-ups," where stocks can go straight up month after month. |
