Hey Guys,
The market has quieted down. The S&P 500 ended up down 10 points yesterday but is back up 10 points so far today. The net effect is that it's been flat for the last couple days.
I had a few more stock positions lock in profits. My ES and BCE stock positions hit their profit targets. And my CL stock position reached its time limit, so I manually closed it at the opening bell. That one also ended up with a profit.
Over the last two weeks, I've had 12 wins and 1 loss with my stock trades. It's nice to see after such a tough month in July. It would have been nice if some of those stocks had options available so that I could have tagged along with the options account.
There have been no new trades yet today, and in general, there has been very little activity in the options account recently. The trade opportunities can go in cycles. Some periods are the exact opposite of this, and instead of there being limited option trading activity, instead there are option trades pouring in. So I stay patient and go with the flow.
If you have any questions or feedback, I'd love to hear from you.
