Mindful Trader Commentary For December 2, 2022


Hey Guys,


The market is down this morning. Yesterday the S&P 500 reached a peak of about 4,100, but right now it's around 4,035.


I picked up some new positions. In the main account, I bought stocks for BA and HON. In the extra options account, I bought the options for HON. In the low-priced account, I bought positions for HDB and MGA.


When I first posted the HDB trade, I listed it as HDFC accidentally somehow. I fixed it within in a few minutes. I appreciate the patience of those who saw the typo!


None of my positions got closed today. At the end of the day yesterday, I manually closed two options positions that reached their time limits, and one was profitable (INTC) while the other one wasn't (VLO). I caught a bit of a break on the timing of selling those INTC options because the market went down last night and they would be in the red if I still owned them now.


If you have any questions or feedback, I'd love to hear from you.
