- the Jan11-90p from 7/8 trading is...7/13 trading:<br /><br />- the Jan11-90p from 7/8 trading is a TLT. Sorry for the omission.<br />- Some profits from GOOG's 50-point, 5-day run need to be locked in so I took the Aug-460c off the table at 39.00 (up 27.22, +231%). <br />- TBT is recovering nicely and maybe some of those bigger positions from before will break even or turn positive by expiration Friday. The rushed put purchase on 7/8 was probably unnecessary and will cost me $760.<br />- Bought 3 more (already have 2) DIA Aug-98p for 1.11 for some general downside insurance. The market has been running pretty hot, and starting to back off the uber-bull portfolio position I'm currently in, to a more regular-bull....<br />- Sold 100 sh. of TNA at 41.18 (per my comment above of backing off slightly). I had these since 6/29 (up 2.26, + 5.8%)BDChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16285056426782169685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3462319599838466856.post-16844199841046134452010-07-08T19:25:03.424-07:002010-07-08T19:25:03.424-07:007/8: market up-day number two:

The 5.15 made on the Jul call comes off the Aug call basis.)<br />- Bought 4 Jan11-90p at 1.80BDChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16285056426782169685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3462319599838466856.post-41968802936805710842010-07-07T13:04:50.205-07:002010-07-07T13:04:50.205-07:007/7 trading:
