Day Trading and Stocks Review

Day Trading is another one I’m ready to purge.

At least it’s easy to review – We have 100 BA Nov $60s that are down almost 50% and we discussed in comments today about rolling them into a Sept vertical but I’m not too keen on that as it’s just money laying there so I’m thinking it over.  We have 50 FIG Sept $10s that are up 83% and looking good and then we have the 40 GOOG $470s, that finished poorly but then popped back up in after hours so we’ll see tomorrow.  That’s it.  The DTP is up 196% since 5/19 and has $169K in cash as I’ve gotten back to more pure day trading and less long holds (BA being the one old one we’re stuck with).

Stocks are up very nicely for a 10 day-old portflio at 7%.  Lots of sold puts and just our naked SIRIs and the HOVs with those puts sold as well.  The only put I’m worried about owning is C and I’m not worried about that because I don’t mind owning C for $17.40 if it does get put to us:
