This post is a combination of yesterday and today. I took my college roommate and his family to Helen yesterday after I placed few orders in put side in attempts to form some Nov's IC. Indices were down in the morning before I left around 11am. The down move exceeded 1% in early afternoon. Most of my put selling orders got filled. I expected today was a slow day due to Fed Min release in the afternoon. Indices tried to move into positive territory but closed down slightly.
Made a total 15 trades across all of my acct in the last two days. I closed my first individual stock stock options trades on NFLX because there is only few days left before its earning announcement and it hit my pre-set target. I closed couple hedging calls to reduce margin. The SPY 203 short was reduced another 50 shares after the exit target got hit yesterday. It was a total losing trade and I let it dragged for too long. There is only 50 shares left. I sold three short calls today on the early pop for reload and strangles. Margin is switched to the call side again. The down slide may not be over yet despite a positive election outlook. Also the earning session just started. We may see some new volatility in near term.
Risk profile is back to a healthy level due to the pull back of last two days. Net liq is 188K, the highest since early July. Margin ratio is at 53% and leverage at 53.
