Small Time Trading

[benchman]

Account value up almost $1,200 today. Mostly from ESV.

ESV closed up .25 to $7.95. Oil was up .7%. Despite this nice gain from ESV, it actually way underperformed it's peers. Kind of a bummer. I put up for sale 1,000 of my 5,000 shares at $8.09. The HOD was $8.06. So close. Would have been the first unwinding of this position in the 19 months I have owned it. At least the trade is finally profitable. I also gained $50 today on receiving my ESV dividend.

AVOI closed up .0048 to .03 today. I added some at .023.

My Oct AMD puts fell 3 cents to .07. My September's expired worthless today. They were at 1 cent yesterday. Total loss in value today was only $300, however I lost a little over $3K on the total trade. AMD closed down .16 to $31.02 today.

MAAFF and SDSS were unchanged with no volume today.

That's it. Another good week here. Have a great weekend everyone!
