    sold 3 $SPY call cts $370. exp 19 oct @$6.27 bought @ $2.27 see post #182....acct @$5315.00.
    Im out of $FRO not posting any info since no specifics was posted.

    I have nothing on radar at this moment. Now it's a waiting game for the next trade to take this to +/- $5315.00.

    I won't be posting anymore emails from iTrade showing trades open or close. I will just post $NAME and the objective for the trade.

    GL rest of the week to you all.

    It looks like a trade is in the making, if $SPY goes below $369.75 I'm looking at a trade to the $366.00 - $365.00 level. Exp would be 21 Oct.

    Trade taken $366.00... 3 cts @$2.34

    Trade closed 3@$2.75 acc@...$5438.00.

    if $SPY trades down below $367.50...$366. is golden, manage your risk to reward.

    bought 20 $SPY $380 calls cts @.32c exp 24 oct

    TD is not on the side of this trade a few adjustments should rectify losses.

    If $SPY stays above $365.00 at the close today 21 oct then $380.calls should be good Monday for a small profit. If there is a major over the weekend then restructure accordingly.

    need to get through $368.50 10:50 - 10:54......bust through 11:30....its a problem.

    gone for a walk with my girl.

    breakeven now....it's all up to you now what you do.

    will update end of day.

    trade closed sold @.68c....acc@$6158.00

    see you lot Monday

    the week ahead prep, a couple names on the radar these 3 names top priority $PBR@$16.50, $T@$17.10 and $INDO@$6.75.

    Upside
    $VALE@ $14.33 its a go @$15.20
    $NI @$24.49 its a go @$25.25
    $BOX @$28.05 go @$28.55
    $DBX @$21.42 go @$21.80.
    $BK @$40.23 go @$40.90

    $CAT @$190.22.... long to $215.00

    Downside
    $LOW @$182.37....short to $170.00

    Looking at $SPY for this week I think tomorrow we get up to the $380.00 then struggle, once it get past the $380.00 then $390.00 is in the cards, now if $390.00 is not taken out then back down then back down, so we need to keep an eye on futures this evening.

    If you are holding $SPY....$380.00 calls from last week GL

    bought 3cts $SPY $380.00 puts exp 26 oct@$1.81

    above $383.60 - .75 going to cut it loose.

    watching the outflow and inflow before decision is made, so far it's even. 11:44

    this is one of those trades that's a tug of war, the outflow is more than the inflow so it should be showing weakness.

    past $382.40 then it's $381.23

    took a $240.00 loss acc@$5918.00

    I f**ked up badly today and if you are following sorry if not then nothing here to see. I didn't remember $GOOGL , $MSFT and $AAPL was reporting this week otherwise I would have stayed with the $380 put trade. So adjustments will be made to rectify the $395.00 call if needed . There is a balance of $1423.00 in the account so enough to scratch out a profit.

    if $SPY gets past $387.85 then next target will be $390.75. manage your trade if you in. Good to see a nice recovery today but tomorrow $AAPL reports...decision time today if you see $AAPL beating then $390.75 in the cards.

    Moved out of $AFRM @$21.66. prf $242.00.

    I'm having a look at $W, $GRPN, $CVNA and $VERV. these are high SI plays.

    not taking any trade today just looking to get out of $SPY breakeven or a small loss. I just have this gnawing nagging feeling about $AAPL this is just based on scenario analysis.

    out of $SPY for a loss of .37 x 5cts of $220.00....acc@$5940.00

    $SPY 380 puts @$1.92/4 cts. exp 28 oct

    not holding this into Fri 28 oct, letting go 27 oct

    I have to run an errand so sold @$2.20...prf is a prf $1.92 - $2.20.

    see you lot tomorrow

    acc@$6052.00 down $106.00 from last week....we will finish this week strong.

    the last 2 days a lot of $s was left on the table due to errand runs that was necessary at the time. this is a lesson for you younguns if you are single then you get to do what you want when you want but if you are not single/a family man/woman take the time to do the little things that will make your partner appreciate you everyday or else someone else will take your spot take this lesson for an old guy here.

    Next week the 1st target $7000.00 will be accomplished then forward march to $10K before year end.

    Have a great weekend all.

    in $SPY $365.00 puts 5 cts. 04 nov exp @$1.51/ct

    The reason for this trade is, as I see it $375.00 was the floor since it opened below the next floor is $365.00. Now risk management comes into play and how strong in my mind I believe I'm right. Manage and adjust to the trend.

    added 5 more @.70c... average @ $1.1050
    sold out @.60
    for the week down $740.00
    got to go walk my girl be back later
