Working on a basket of positions

by Ryan Barr on January 22, 2008

in Papermoney

Okay… So I think this is the bottom.

Could I be wrong?  Yup… If I am I may blow through about 100K of the paper money account, however I don’t think that is going to happen.  I’m working on a series of positions right now.  They are along a ton of different ‘minis’.

When I get fills on these tomorrow I’ll update the portfolio and describe my thoughts on each of these.  Overall, I think we have hit a temporary bottom and I’m willing to play it.  So here are the tickers:  IWM, DIA, SPY, QQQQ and the VIX.

My orders are as follows:

  • Sell 100 VIX Feb 32.5/35 Call Verticals @ $0.45
  • Sell 200 DIA Feb 110/100 Put Verticals @ $0.13
  • Sell 200 QQQQ Feb 40/39 Put Verticals @ $0.13
  • Sell 200 SPY Feb 122/121 Put Verticals @ $0.18
  • Sell 200 IWM Feb 61/60 Put Verticals @ $0.14

I’ll post the updates as soon as I get them.  Good luck, hopefully I’m on the right side of this.  If not, it may be quite costly.

Trade smart!
