Nothing is easy..Every trade involves capital and psychological risk especially during Trump's liberation week and mid Oct to November sell-9ff. Each trade requires informed judgment and conviction. I missed precious metals, just manage to catch gold in Q4. AMD breakeven. Still a good year at 67% YTD return, beating SPY and QQQ by large extent.
$SNDK VERTICAL 260109 PUT 205.0/PUT 210.0$ Expiring in 2 weeks, closed at 67% profit when price reach over $251. As price chops a lot, I can open a new position when price dips in support level.
$MSFT 20251226 490.0 PUT$ Stocks got assigned, computed that loss would be lower if I sold this long put and sell the stock, instead of $5 per share(difference of vertical spread), net loss became .99 cents per share at closing price ($487.14 vs $488.13). Since current price is very near support and MSFT has been trending, a a dollar or few is highly possible till year end.
