Wednesday, Aug.23, 2023 | Options Trading | Daily Journal

 

|9:30am-10:00am| Started the day buying IWM Calls and AMD Calls locked nice gains on trading room but closed way too soon as IWM trade more than tripled.

|10:00am- 1:00pm| I got chopped in some options contracts so decided to go with stock longs on NVDA TSLA AMZN JPM and locked nice gains. As insurance I was buying some SPY Put hedges just in case momentum faded, but it wasnt necessary.

|After 1:00pm| Tried to fade QQQ but got stopped so flipped into SPY Calls scalp  for +45% gains and done!

End of Day resume| Today was very weird day as I got IWM AMD Calls perfectly at market open but closed way too soon. Today I did better with stock longs on NVDA TSLA AMZN and also trimmed my gains on TLT longs from 92+, so stocks were great, but options trades not the best day. Still made some nice cash flow with stock + options, so I’m happy with my risk management, trading plan, focus and resilience. Need to keep my focus and repeat the process over and over again!
