12/15/2009 – ThetatOptions Margin PortfolioPosition CLOSED – Profit $75

No sense waiting around for OpEx on these guys after the recent upgrade.  I still think the MM’s will pin the stock to 20 by Friday, but we’re taking our money and running after yesterday 5% run up (scare).

Risk/Reward: $75/$1900 (original Margin) = 4% return on Margin Risk in (11) days…

Order:

Buy To Close: (5) RSH DEC 20 Call – 0.25 debit

12/04/2009 – ThetatOptions Margin Portfolio – DEC Short Radio Shack

We’ve been watching & waiting for another chance to “short” Radio Shack.  With (2) weeks left to go until OpEx, we feel it’s fairly safe to short Radio Shack now. Our cost basis will be 20.40, that gives us a 5% cushion from the current stock price of 19.45.

Order:

Sell To Open: (5) RSH DEC 20 Call – 0.40 Credit

12-4-2009_RSH_order

Position: $1900 Margin for two weeks to make $200; that’s 10% risk/reward for (10) trading days.
