Not much action was taken last week in my options trading — aside from closing out all my put positions. According to my own standard, the returns were solid, and I’m satisfied with the outcome.
I did set a few put options that didn’t get filled, but that’s perfectly fine with me. Every strike price and the premium I choose reflects the level of risk and reward I’m comfortable with — and staying disciplined matters more to me than chasing every trade.
Looking ahead, I think this coming week will be especially interesting in terms of market volatility. Many of us will be watching the progress of trade deal discussions closely. So, time to buckle our seat belts and stay alert — it could be a bumpy ride or a smooth ride, which we do not know and that is the beauty of stock trading, isn’t it? ; )
