Mindful Trader Commentary For August 27, 2021


Hey Guys,


The market was sluggish to start the morning but is back to its highs as of the time I'm writing this.


My utilities stock positions are showing some signs of life finally, but my Walmart and JNJ options aren't yet in the happy zone.


I closed out some expiring options positions today and I also closed out my UNP options due to the upcoming dividend. For my ED options, I am trying to sell them, but there are no buyers. If no buyers come by the end of the day, I expect it to expire worthless, in which case no further action is needed on my part.


I closed my DFS stock position this morning since it reached its time limit. On Monday, COF will reach its time limit and I will be manually closing the position unless it reaches its profit target or stoploss before then.


No new trades have set up yet today. There were two that came really close but never quite made it and have since gone back up.


If you have any questions or feedback, I'd love to hear from you.
