Day 18 - NVIDIA

Foolish Trader Journal, Day 18

Trading Update

I closed the META Put Credit Spread I had opened yesterday when it reached ~60% of the original premium that was credited.

I looked around for any new spreads I could open, and decided to try a longer term Put Credit Spread. I have tried this once or twice before I started this foolish experiment, and I vaguely recall getting burnt.

Here is to foolish hope! I opened 5 Put Credit Spreads for NVDA, with a 3/21 target for $120/$115 spread that was $5 wide. I am betting NVDA will not fall below $120, one because it just bounced back after a fall, and second it seems some financial companies have tagged $130 as a the price target for NVIDIA.

The LEAPS trended downwards today. The overall portfolio went down a bit today. I am still dialed in.

One of the things I am beginning to realize is as the account size grows, however tiny bit, I am having to fight off my preservation mindset quite a lot, in order to take on the risk necessary to keep growing the account.
