And we’re done…

Posted on December 31, 2007 at 3:08 pm         By Ryan in Investing | Disclaimer

2007 has come to a close. The Santa Claus rally didn’t really do much this year and we ended on a down note.
The RUT closed the year at $766.03 down ($5.73) for the day. All of the other major indexes shared similar performance for the lackluster close of the year.
Overall, 2007 was a [...]

Posted on July 24, 2007 at 9:23 am         By Ryan in Papermoney | Disclaimer

holding on while we vote

Posted on November 7, 2006 at 10:47 am         By Ryan in Papermoney | Disclaimer

Looking at all of the data out there, I’m pretty comfortable holding on for the next 9 days on both of the SPX and RUT positions that I’ve got open currently.
Based upon a quick analysis in the tools from thinkorswim, the SPX has about a 0.13% chance of expiring above 1430 and the RUT has [...]

Posted on July 27, 2006 at 1:50 pm         By Ryan in Options Trading, Papermoney | Disclaimer

Over the past few days I’ve been able to secure fills on two August positions. The first in an SPX Iron Condor and the second position was a result of two RUT Iron Condors. I’ll run down the positions here; however, they are also reflected in the portfolio section of the site.

let the profits roll in…

Posted on July 20, 2006 at 11:05 pm         By Ryan in Options Trading, Papermoney | Disclaimer

July was a nice month. Apple reported great earnings and I was able to close the position opened earlier this month for a quick gain. Thursday late in the date I unrolled the RUT and SPX plays for next to nothing and I fully expect the MSH play to close completely profitable. [...]
