Good place to enter Pfizer (PFE)?
I am really watching Pfizer right now and preparing to enter for my 2023 dividend portfolio. I am not sure they have formed a stable price base right now, which will dictate the type of trade I enter. You might ask, why not just wait? A couple of reasons. First, I want to get the […]
GOOG Deep In the Money Covered Call
With the market moving up and into resistance I am trying to stay active without taking a lot of risk. Of course, trying to keep risk down also means taking less profit. As I look at my goals for the 2023 members portfolio, I am up pretty good so far in 2023 and an comfortable […]
EEM – 10/12/18 – Iron Condor
EEM – 10/12/18 – Iron Condor This was a hedge trade I had on a Diagonal that was losing money. I wanted to try and take advantage of EEM moving into a sideways range after a move down and use that premium to help my Diagonal. I entered this Iron Condor with EEM trading at […]
COST – 10/8/18 – Iron Condor

NKE – 10/2/18
NKE – 10/2/18 – Iron Condor NKE had a big earnings Implied Volatility drop after earnings but still looked pretty good for an Iron Condor. I could have gotten more premium trading before earnings but there is a huge risk doing that, which is why you get more premium. On 10/2 I sold the 11/16 […]

CRM 9/28/18 Iron Condor

TLT 9/25/18 Broken Wing Iron Condor
TLT – 09/25/18 – Broken Wing Iron Condor I got on a little bit of a habit of placing these Broken Wing Iron Condors during this time period. Great if you are expecting the market to move a certain direction, but don’t over do them. If the market suddenly changes on you and you are […]
