Hey Guys,
The market is up a bit this morning, but we're still clearly in the midst of volatility. We'll see where the market goes from here, but it's nice to see the market go up for the time being after taking on a number of positions over the last couple days.
In the main account this morning, I bought positions for COP and CVX. I bought options for those same tickers in the extra options account. That gives me a noticeable exposure to the energy industry this week since I already had a position in XOM from yesterday.
Both COP and CVX came from the watch list. I set up buy limit orders for the tickers on the watch list before the market opens. My orders for COP and CVX got filled automatically. I actually got lower prices than what I specified with my order (I specified the Potential Entry Price from the watch list). Since the price had gapped down for both tickers overnight, there was ample supply of the stock at a lower price, so I was automatically filled at the lower price.
If you have any questions or feedback, I'd love to hear from you.
