Small Time Trading

[benchman]

Account value up almost $1,000 today. Lot's of contributors.

A lot of today's gains were from my AMD puts. Both the October's and the November's. All I have left are 50 contracts of the October's, which fell back to .05 this afternoon. They were as high as .17, and I sold some at .10 and .13. I sold all of the November's at .58 for a nice gain, probably could have gotten at least another 10 cents out of them though.

I also gained some from my purchase of AMD shares. I bought at $28.95 and $27.

AMD closed down .59 to $28.43, but had been as low as $26.54. I am hoping to sell my shares around $30 or more.

ANY closed up .0264 to .3464 on good volume. I added more shares at .291, which was the LOD. So this position also helped my account.

SDSS closed up .0001 to .0015.

On the losing side, AVOI hurt my value quite a bit, closing down about a penny to .0174.

MAAFF was also down. Closing off .0021 to .004 on a 1,300 share trade.
