Mindful Trader Commentary For December 12, 2025


Hey Guys,


The market is down a bit to start the morning, but this comes after it showed some strength in the afternoon yesterday.  The S&P 500 is around 6,890 right now.


My options account had a mixed bag of results this week.  There were a couple of small profits and losses in the trades that reached their time limits yesterday and got closed, as well as a bigger thud of a loss from the CAH option trade.  That offset the profitable JNJ trade I had earlier in the week.


My stocks account fared better this week.  My HSY stock position reached its time limit this morning and landed a profit.  That brought me up to a win-loss record of 5-0 for the week in that account.


I've taken on one new trade so far today.  I bought shares of BTI in the stocks account.


If you have any questions, just reply directly to this email.
