Hey Guys,
The market is up again to start the morning, which is the third trading day in a row that it's moved its way up to start the day. It's back near the top of the range that it had been in at the early part of this month.
My GOOGL stock position reached its time limit. That one ended up with a small profit. It wasn't much, but it's nice to get the week started on the right foot.
I took on some new positions today. In the stocks account, I bought positions for WMT and HRL. In the options account, I bought options for those same tickers.
A note about tomorrow's watch list for options: it's going to show expiration dates of Dec 26 for all the options, but for my live trades, I will be using the Jan 2 expiration. The reason is that Christmas falls on Thursday this week, and the Dec 26 expiration wouldn't give the trade enough time to make its move (the watch list doesn't currently have a way to account for that properly).
If you have any questions, just reply directly to this email.
Eric
