    1.bought back put spread in AMZN for 2.80 this was a $100 loss. This was a mistake on my part

    2.rolled up put in AMZN from 365 to 375 for 3.33 credit big move up today made adjustment

    3.rolled call in S for .20 credit call was going to expire out of the money so rolled it to collect more credit.

    4.rolled put down in BABA for 2.40 debit Put side of this trade was in the money so I rolled it out of the money still have a credit for the over all trade

    Trades after the close on Fri.

    1. 155 call in AAP expired worthless will not replace this trade as I have rolled other calls

    2.put spread in FXE expired worthless
    this closes out FXE condor trade for $60 loss

    3.10 call in P expired worthless.
    100% win on this part of the condor

    4. 11 call in P expired worthless
    100% win on this part of the condor

    5, acquired 1000 shares of P for 8.30
    Time to sell calls against this until I can close it out for a win

    6. acquired 100 shared of P for 9.02
    Time to sell calls against this until I can close it out for a win

    7.acquired 100 shares of VXX for 15.20

    1. closed 8 put in P for .88 credit. taking profit on this part of condor that went bad.

    2.sold 7.5 call in P for .10 credit selling calls against stock to turn bad trade into good trade

    3.sold 14 call in VXX for .43 credit was assigned stock as selling call would bring in more credit than just rolling puts

    4.rolled call in AMD for .15 credit with this roll trade is now a winning one

    5.rolled put up in RUT from 1350 to 1370 for 2.62 credit. big move up in price going above upper call so I rolled up put to collect more credit, this might turn into an iron fly

    6. sold 997.5/995 put spread in AMZN for .95 credit good move up trying to score a quick win will expire this week

    7. rolled TMUS for .54 credit trade still underwater so I roll for more credit

    1. closed out XOP call spreads at .17 per share profit. nice trade time to move on

    2.rolled call spread in AAPL for .19 credit This is from the condor that went wrong, so I am rolling to collect more credit.

    3.rolled call in SNAP down from 20 to 19 for .15 credit. 20 strike was far away from the current price so I rolled the call down to collect more credit.

    4. sold naked 22.5 put in KR for .81 credit. seemed like a good trade so I jumped in.

    5. closed out put spread in AMZN for even. with the option set to expire this week seemed like a good idea to close for break even versa possible loss.

    1. Bought back naked put in KR for 50% win. you know the deal by now if you get to buy it back for half price do it.

    2. sold the 370-367,5 put spread in TSLA for next week for 1.00 credit I sold right before the market made it move down, still think I will make money on the trade might have to roll it a time or two.

    3. sold 62-68 strangle in XLE for 1.25 credit. Good stock to sell a strangle in as it does not move that much.

    A strangle is when you sell in the trade above 62 put and 68 call, naked.

    1. closed out naked 17.5 put in SNAP for 50 % win. same old song and dance 50 % check please !

    2.rolled AMT for .29 credit. I have strangle on that was out of the money so I rolled to buy more time and take in more credit,

    3.closed out condor in XBI for a $15 dollar profit. This stock has been known to jump around alot so I cashed out when it turned profitable

    4. rolled put up in RUT for 1.25 credit. This trade is a condor. with the big move up today it blew past my short strike on the call side. so I rolled the put up to collect more credit. This trade could still turn out to be a nice win or a bad loss !

    5. rolled calls in SNAP for .57 credit. The block of stock these call are on is still from an bad earnings trade , and are still under water. So I rolled for a nice credit and very close to getting back to even.

    6.rolled calls in X for .58 credit Same song and dance as with the SNAP trade above.

    7. closed out naked put in X for 30 % win With the big move up I had a chance to make a few $$$ and reduce the total position I have in X.


    Today lesson is about iron condor trades- an Iron condor is when you sell both a call spread and a put spread out of the money on the same stock expiring at the same time. You place this type of trade when you think the stock will not move much in price. it is a defined risk trade so going into it you know what your max loss and your max win can be.


    If you have an option question please feel free to ask. after all you cant beat the price I charge for an answer !

    Hi Ronzoil
    nice and interesting at one point (last year) I was getting interested on condor etc... but it looks very complicated to DD further
    then again I thought why complicating my trading life when I do fine with scalping the stocks :p:D
    I do few options from here (Paris) had a bad one in USA lost nearly 4K$:eek::( but that was my fault (lucky it come off my profit and not the capital) c'est la vie :D

    take care you doing a great job.... shame not many options trader here ....
    they could have a good teacher and he doesn't even charge for answers ;):D:D

    Thanks for the kind words. I think most people are scared of options because you hear the bad stories of how people lost big time.
    Well if you dont know what your doing you can loose big time.

    But with some education along with learning you can be profitable.

    1. rolled put in GT for one week for .30 Credit the reason for this is the rate of return .30 a week on a 35 dollar stock is 41 % a year.

    2.closed out earning trade in MU one day trade 50% winner. I did it an earnings trade that is a winner !

    3.closed out put spread in TSLA for 1.68 loss. I hate closing a trade out for a loss, the only way to repair this trade was to roll the short put but that requires around 37k of capital. and with all the winning trades in TSLA I guess I can afford to give some back.

    4. closed out condor in AMZN for a $100 profit. With all the movement in the market I had a chance to close this trade out for a nice profit and take the risk off the table.

    5. Close out strangle in WBA for a 50 % win. you know the drill if you can get 50 % take the money and run.
