7 weeks out and the option on the move...

Hey


There are 31 trading days left and the stock is still well above the strike price. The interesting thing is that the option's time value of the option is actually on the decline and actually below what I paid for it even though the stock has rocketed past the strike price of the stock. That is not to say that the option itself is below, just the time value of the option is. This didn't happen with the previous trade (HGSI) until late in the strike month. But the time value was higher when this trade was originated so maybe this is the normal level.

There will be new product info in the next two months or so I have read on other blogs/posts. The chart is a little unpredictable give the jump in the last week. But it looks like the trade is still in very good shape.

This type of trade is what the account is looking for. If a stock can be found with an unusually large time value attached to its options, the account will look to exploit that. Stocks like this not only provide an indication of bullish sentiment, but they also provide the seller with an added risk premium not usually seen in other stocks. This added premium received is where the account will create its revenue and quicken its size overall.

-As always, I do not fully divulge information on open trades. When the trade ends, I will give out the rest of the details (stock name, price purchased, call purchased, news on company/ETF, chart info) that sort of thing. Please feel free to ask questions and I will answer them the best I can without endangering the trade.

New trade

Hey


There has been a new trade this week (Monday.) A company was found that had a September call within range that allows a profit of 11% if the shares get assigned and almost 20% if the shares don't reach the strike price and don't get assigned. The chart shows a bullish trend. The options activity is also bullish. The company has some new products coming in the next couple of months that should keep a bullish sentiment throughout the trade. Armed with this information, it was decided to buy the shares and sell calls against the shares.


The one thing I have noticed with the last trade of HGSI (links below) and this one is that there has yet to be a trade that can end in one month and still guarantee a profit. This is due to capital levels of the account. It will take the ability to buy more contracts to handle the effects of the trading costs.

When the trade ends, I will give out the rest of the details (stock name, price purchased, call purchased, news on company/ETF, chart info) that sort of thing.
