some thoughts on CSP

if holding a CSP and the stock falls below the strike price, and you still favor the stock,
roll-down or further out, or both.

If the stock doesn’t soon recover, keep rolling.

Eventually, well chosen stocks should recover.

If it doesn’t and you end up with shares,
then sell covered calls, you could also average down share price by buying more shares.

Again, the stock must be well chosen, one you believe has sound fundamentals to come back from a drop in price.

update on vol switch trade

holding long XIV 12 shares, Dec, 29, EOD $134.44, $1,613.28

for 2017 went live with a vol switch trade strategy that I had been working on for about
2 years. opened an account with about $500 to get it started.

the account ended the year at $1,613.28.

for 2018 was thinking of adding more money, but after more thought, think
I will pull out the gain and ride with the $500 again.
