Portfolio at $1,000,000 on Mar 1st, 2006. This model portfolio will be compared to the Trading Portfolio for performance. Each trade will consist of roughly one-fourth of the portfolio. Options will normally be held for one to three months or until price targets, including stop losses, are reached. Few trades will be made. Option buying and selling prices will be listed one day in advance. This portfolio is for investors, who are too busy to watch the market closely (commissions $1 per contract).
