Weekly Trading Report for Fri 1/13/23

Commentary

I've been testing a new CSP trading strategy since mid December that uses longer term expirations (30-45 days) and 55% profit targets. So far the results have been positive and I'm considering sticking with this strategy.

I'm in the process of writing a new trading plan for the Wheel Strategy, which will become my primary trading plan.

I've also made some changes to the format of this report. I've included a summary of open positions, and changed the reporting of trades to only represent the current options sold (see below). Full P/L will be reported when complete positions are closed.

Trading Summary

This week 8 CSP's (DIA, IWM(2), QQQ, SPY, XLK, XLV, XLY) reached their profit targets and were closed, 1 new CC (QQQ) was sold, 1 CC (IWM) was rolled, and 1 new CSP (XLI) was sold.

Current Open Positions

  • 1 CSP position
  • 3 CC positions (IWM, QQQ, SPY)
  • 12 uncovered stock positions (ARKK(5)*, IWM, QQQ (2), XLK (2), XLY (2)

* ARKK has 4 100 share positions at different strikes and 1 400 share position at the same strike.

The following is a summary of this week's trading activity.

New CSP/CC and rolled CSP/CC positions only represent the current option sold. If multiple options have been sold on a CSP or CC position, the full P/L will be reported when the complete position is closed.

* denotes existing open positions that were previously rolled/continued.
