Next Week Trading (Feb 1st):
I’ll continue to buy SPY Mar puts (e.g. 270 or 272) on bounces. I expect a pullback or at least enough volatility to make gains trading 100 puts at a time. Given the quick SPY run-up from 233 3/4 on Christmas Eve to the 271 1/4 high today, some type of pullback is expected soon. I plan to keep 50 or 100 puts for a bigger pullback, e.g. SPY falling to 265.
My portfolio is over $480,000 including $376,000 in cash.

Puts Contracts-Shares Short
SPY Mar 270 2019 200
Portfolio at $100,000 on Mar 1st, 2018. Portfolio stop loss raised to $300,000. Stop loss will be strictly enforced and extreme caution will be taken if triggered to avoid large losses and preserve capital in "irrational" market periods. |
