Week 155 (till Feb 24, 2024)

Added

As discussed last week: $150 went into SPYI, the proceeds went into THW and last weeks $150 went into AB.

Review

I have my first home run in this account. I define a home run as an investment that doubled in invested original capital. The first home run in this account is AVGO. It is now up 105% and has 5.15% of the portfolio allocated. This means. I can't add to it per my rules. However, I will also not reduce the postion. Eventually I will have to think about reducing a position if it becomes to large. 

Plan for next week

The $150 go into PDI. it has currently 2.08% of the portfolio.

Covered Call - BROS - Update 2024-02-24 - Closed

Earnings was interesting. It gapped up and then did sell off. The trading range was big on 2/22. High $29.22 and low  $26.38 or $2.84 for the trading range. The average trading range over 14 trading days is $1.01. On Friday the market had a big up day. NVDA rocked with their earnings. It lifted the entire market.

Thursday night I already wrote in my trade book, that I need to sell another call on Friday. And then on Friday the closing price was 28.70. 
Total return on the trade. $208.87 or 7.51% on invested capital. Total trade duration 4 weeks.

Don't get me wrong. This is a total home run. This does not happen with most of the trades.

In my trading rules, the only exit is getting called out. That means, that I still have some stocks on the books that are down. One reason it is important that the stocks pay dividends. Now they can be cut e.g. WBA or completely suspended e.g. WDC 

Covered Call - BROS - Update 2024-02-17

Trade Update

On Friday:  I bought back the short call for 5 cents and sold a Feb 23 C28 for 1.20 cents.

This is a nice premium, but also indicates anything can happen on 2/21 when earnings get announced. The Market Maker Move is +/- $2.778.

Closing price on Friday was $27.40. Premiums returned with short options so far $69.58 (excluding Friday).
