Sep 10th Trading Log (seventh update):
I sold the PSFT calls and puts at $47,400 [over 19 3/4], sold 100 DIA Oct 103 puts at $17,000 [over 102 1/2], bought 50 EBAY Sep 90 puts at $10,500 [about 88 1/2], bought 20 PSFT Jan 17.5 calls at $6,000 [over 19 3/4], bought 100 QQQ Oct 35 puts at $9,000 [over 34 3/4], sold 50 EBAY Sep 90 puts at $13,000 [at 87 3/4], bought 200 QQQ Oct 36 puts at $29,000 [over 34 3/4], and bought 50 EBAY Oct 90 puts at 21,000 [over 88 1/4]. The implied volatility of the PSFT calls fell. So, I bought calls. The Nasdaq Oscillator 20 day MA is at a very high level, which suggests the market will fall over next few weeks (see page one of Chart Room).
My portfolio is about $855,000 including about $685,000 in cash.
