Investing Journal - T2S

Just went all in TGT @ 49.80 as it's underperforming pretty good lately and it just tapped the gap up price. will look to sell calls or maybe just ride this one up to around 53-54

Edit: Not sure why I keep doing these all in plays..at least they're on relatively safe underlyings
 
This is why I don't do earnings plays, yet I got forced into an earnings play here on the early announcement by TGT.

That hurt.

Just sold 21 Jan 49 C @ .50 on all my holdings

EDIT: Scratch that. That would be a revenge trade. The technical damage done here is too great, I am closing this position today. Will update prices when I do so
 
Bought and sold Ebay before earnings for +600 and bought IBM after earnings at 185 and still hold it.

Account is at 27,700 so completely recovered and more after the TGT wipeout.

I haven't really done much here lately because it takes up more time then I would like considering I'm not really getting anything out of it. I will try and at least update trades and acct. I don't plan on doing the spreadsheet or anything like that anymore.

I've switched from selling calls to swing trading as the VIX has dropped and I don't feel like call prices are adequately priced based on the risk the market has.
 
Although I may be 4-5 points late, I'm looking to put a 3-6 month short in on TLT

Does anyone have any opinions on this? Maybe going long TBT would be easier. Anyone else been watching this rollover? My 3-6 month price target for TLT is 105ish
