Day 22 - One Step Forward

Foolish Trader Journal, Day 22

Trading Update

I saw META drop at the start of the day and wanted to risk some spreads.

Instead of allocating more out of account, I closed the remaining 3 NVDA spreads and used some of the released capital to open 1 new META spread.

The account went green today for the first time since I began actively monitoring my trades.

  • Closed: NVDA $120/$115 Put Credit Spread
  • Opened: META %685 / $675 Put Credit Spread, expiring in 2 days

Portfolio Status

Here is the status of my open trades at the end of the day today.

Today, both MSFT and GOOGL LEAPS inched upwards. The overall portfolio went up a bit today. Yesterday, I wrote that I was beginning to lose my patience with the LEAPS, and as if on cue, both LEAPS went up a little.

Here is a Year to date view of the portfolio.

I managed to go one more day being disciplined about not opening a big position on a single stock.

I am anticipating META will establish a floor around $680, so hoping my spread remain safe.

And I am hoping for the LEAPS to grow a bit more faster.

See you tomorrow!
