Next Week Trading (Dec 7th):
If the market opens high Monday, I'll first focus on VXX calls and AAPL puts, which have been much more volatile than the SPY puts. I expect more volatility next week before the new tariffs deadline on the 15th. Also, even if SPY makes new highs in December and January, I expect a significant correction before the March puts expire to make big gains. I'll add more puts on a SPY rise.
My portfolio is at $775,000 including $500,900 in cash.
Calls Contracts-Shares Long
VXX Dec 16 300 weekly 13th
VXX Dec 16.5 100 weekly 13th
Puts Contracts-Shares Short
SPY Mar 315 2020 40
SPY Apr 315 2020 40
SPY Jun 315 2020 100
AAPL Dec 270 70 weekly 13th
Portfolio at $100,000 on March 1st, 2018. Portfolio stop loss raised to $400,000. Scaled up and adjusted portfolio. Both prior portfolios, since the early 2000s, rose initially and substantially, and then failed quickly in “irrational” market “melt-ups.” |
