I see you've been editing all your posts now LOL. Can a moderator please ban this gnat from posting in my journal? Thank you.

Thanks for giving up, as everything you were saying was obviously backed by no factual evidence whereas everything I said was. you made one idiotic disproved statement after another and finally ended it by calling me a name. And you want MY thread which illustrates MY trades closed because YOU...

Also, apparently I neglected to mention either put or call, but as you will see in the very first post of this thread: I said: My main strategy for this journal is going to be holding strong, established companies, with dividends ideally but not required. I will be selling monthly >>> calls...

You said: My point is that the price reflects the pending dividend. I said (first): THE PRICE ALSO REFLECTS A $0.16 DIVIDEND TO BE DECLARED THIS WEEK. You are little one of the most ignorant people I've ever seen post on any forum.

I actually wrote MSFT 26 Aug 20 call, which is the way my brokerage firm lists it. Meaning MSFT 26 strike with August 20th expiration. I am sorry you had difficulty understanding such an elaborate concept. Hopefully you understand now :) And the price of an option reflects dividend payments...

I have an option writing journal that anyone is welcome to post on. It documents how I've been weathering this recent whacking and doing pretty decent considering I'm margined and beating the market. I post real time trades and exercise in strategies such as rolling options out and what not...

Start of week: $21,695 End of week: $21,658 (-0.2%) YTD: +$1,658 ( +8.3%) Was obviously a busy week. I did several trades in options to try and ease some of the pain and it appeared to work as I am fully margined and still beating the market on the week. I decided to add another metric of...

Sold to open MSFT 26 Aug 20 for $0.16, this price also reflects a $0.16 dividend to be declared this week.

Just bought back MSFT 25 aug 12 for $0.19 Will be looking to sell probably MSFT 26 aug 20s..just waiting for good opportunity at some point today.

Question for you: Why hedge? Just lower your position sizing? Unless this isn't a direct hedge?

This was a terrible call, he said massive wave of sell orders and market would collapse. Did the market trace down towards the end of the day? Yes. Did it make any new lows? No. I would really like to see at the VERY least a new low before confirming a "collapse" Infact, based on the last...

TBH looks like a bearish downwards wedge but will obviously need some more days to confirm

long basing bottom today when a rather volatile-less price action and now a steady climb up to complete the base of the cup. Looks pretty decent to me

How narrow the mind thinks when being operated by foolish people. If you were truly intelligent you would understand that it doesn't matter if I said i had 100% before I started the journal. The fact of the matter is the market is down 20% from my high water mark and I am only down 8%, all of...

Or, more educated possibilities: 1) Beating the market by 14% as a buy and hold investor in a span of 3 weeks IS something to brag about 2) I have posted all my trades in my journal, at the time of the trades, so if you question my "veracity" then YOU are the tool 3) I find myself in...

Not only that, but how does a 20% drop in the market justify you assuming we should all be bankrupt? I've been long and strong the whole way through this downtrend and have only lost 7% Someone help, no one makes any sense on these forums

mind telling me what's so lol? I'm a long term investor that has +%7.5 ytd while the market is negative.

I started my journal about a month ago and yes, am new to this forum, and find people like you to be rather funny and amusing to watch post.

OP good call. you just didn't know it would form a head and shoulders first. All the doom and gloom shorters on this forum are hilarious, they don't understand markets at all and that valuations of companies are based off earnings. And oh yeah, they are sitting on record cash. Oh well some...

I've been following your journal and your applaud your resilience and openness in your trades. I also believe the market is going to bounce back and am already allin as of yesterday counting on it doing just that. Do you mind me asking what your breakeven is now? EDIT: nevermind, I...
