Mindful Trader Commentary For July 10, 2026


Hey Guys,


The market is at about the same spot as it ended yesterday.  We had some mid-week turbulence in the market but it's ending the week green overall.


I had three different positions reach their time limits today.  I closed my DOV and HRL stock positions at the opening bell and I closed my HRL option position 30 minutes after the opening bell.  All three ended up in the red with small losses.


It wasn't a fun way to end the week.  I did have a profitable week overall in the options account, though.  I had 3 wins and 1 loss and saw my account grow 2.0%.  But in the stocks account, after seeing 6 winning trades in a row, I had 5 losing trades to end the week.


I took on some new trades today.  I bought shares of NVS and CVS in the stocks account.  And I bought the options for CVS in the options account.
