Hey Guys,
The market is kind of hovering near where it ended yesterday. The roller coaster has slowed down a bit for the time being and things are calmer at this moment.
I haven't picked up new positions yet today in any account. Each day I set up buy limit orders for the tickers on my watch list using the Potential Entry Price as my buy limit price. Today none have been filled yet. Some days, like today, there is an added wrinkle of working with limited buying power. That means that not every ticker on the watch list is one that can fit into my account, and that's why the column for Stock Position Value can be handy. It tells you how much buying power each stock position uses.
The IBM stock position from my main account reached its profit target this morning. I also closed the CSCO stock position from my low-priced account this morning since it reached its time limit. That one had about a half-sized profit.
I have an update about the HRL options. I failed to notice that tomorrow is the ex-dividend date. I don't want to own the options overnight. I am going to be closing that position near the end of trading today and I updated the site to reflect that.
I'm going to be closing a bunch of other options near the end of trading today too. I have 12 other options positions that reached their time limits today, so I'm going to manually unload all this positions near the end of the day.
If you have any questions or feedback, I'd love to hear from you.
