I might have gotten a little trigger happy today.  My limit orders weren’t hitting, so I reduced a few of them and two hit 30-40 minutes later.

CELG – I sold one April 55 naked put (LQHPK) and received $239.25 after …

I’m still betting against SFLY.  It found support not far below its current price, but I think the upside is very limited.  I lowered my targeted strike and today while SFLY was trading at 16.27 I sold three April 17.50 …

NVDA – Those who are tired of my rambling on about NVDA will be happy to know …

I updated my diversification table on my Current Portfolio page and below.  I’m far too heavy in Tech since options expiration.  What kept me balanced before expiration is no longer part of my account and …
