Aug 19th Trading Log (third update):

I sold 50 DIA Oct 100 puts at $10,500 (about 101), sold 100 DIA Sep 100 puts at $14,500 (at 100 3/4), and bought 50 INTC Jan 22.5 calls at $9,000 (at 22). I bought INTC calls to hedge the DIA puts, which have huge leverage (perhaps, I'll eventually make gains on both calls and puts, while managing risk).

My portfolio is at $910,000 including over $805,000 in cash.
