Mindful Trader Commentary For July 9, 2024


Hey Guys,


The market is still in about the same place as it was when I emailed yesterday. The S&P 500 is around 5,580 right now. It's not giving up the ground it made over the last week.


My ZG stock position reached its time limit today, so I manually closed it at the opening bell. That one ended up with a partial profit. It wasn't anything major, but it's nice to see another one in the win column.


I've taken on a couple new positions so far today. I bought a stock position for NOW in the main account. And I bought options for WMB in the options account.


I had a buy limit order to buy a stock position for WMB as well, and the price got within a penny of filling my order, but then it reversed course and went up. That might bode well for my option position, but we may have missed our chance to catch a ride with the stock. We'll see if the price comes back later on and fills my stock order.


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