Mar 16th Trading Log (Premarket):
Although a 5% Limit Down is in place, SPY is down about 9%, down 24 to 245 at this time. VXX is up 12 above 55. HAL and OIH are near their lows again. The bigger the pullback, the better, at these short-term oversold levels. Huge gains can be more easily made on volatility quickly. I'll mostly buy SPY Mar calls and VXX Mar puts from the market pullback.
My portfolio is about $220,000 including $109,900 in cash.
Calls Contracts-Shares Long
SPY Apr 280 2020 50
HAL May 10 2020 200
OIH Apr 5 2020 400
Puts Contracts-Shares Short
VXX Mar 40 2020 50
VXX Mar 45 2020 20
Portfolio at $100,000 on March 1st, 2018. Portfolio stop loss suspended. Scaled up and adjusted portfolio. Both prior portfolios, since early 2000s, rose initially and substantially, and then failed quickly in “irrational” market “melt-ups," where stocks can go straight up month after month. |
