Yellen
This is much ado about nothing.
NUGT
STO December 60 put @6.30
NUGT
BTC December 185 call @11.10, my cost was 11.24 so I broke even on this one but took the risk off the table.
NUGT
BTC December 250 call @5.80, sold @21.94
Good morning
Only 2 more days until Yellen.
NUGT

NUGT
BTC September 16 185 calls @3.50, sold @7.19
STO September 16, 140 covered calls @14.40 which will offset my assignment over the weekend.

NUGT
I am finally long some NUGT stock against some naked calls. Have a nice weekend to everyone.
August 19 expirations
IRA: covered calls on SVXY
60 calls
65 calls
45 puts
Trading account:
NUGT 120 put
NUGT 150 put will be assigned after the battle of Stalingrad
SVXY PUTS: 30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,45,50,55, which will free up a lot of margin now that Fidelity is at 100% margin on these VIX levered products.
Market
These summer Fridays are boring. My only option assignment that may happen is my short put on NUGT at the 150 strike. The open interest is only 30 contracts but there is a mighty battle going on into the close at 150.
SVXY
We are still in the trading range of 70 to 74 that we have been in for the last 2 weeks. I don’t have anything to do today so may go to the gym early. The VIX is still in contango.
SVXY roll
My last one. BTC August 19 55 call and STO December 60 call for a credit of 0.80 cents
SVXY roll
BTC August 19, 56 call and STO December 62 call for a credit of 0.40 cents.
SVXY
On the weekly chart I see a head and shoulders bottom that measures up to 95/100. Just my humble opinion and I have been wrong before.
SVXY
BTC August 26, 50 puts @0.05 with no commission. It was sold @2.33 and that is the last of my exposure on that date.
NUGT
STO December 90 put @12.10
SVXY Roll
BTC August 19, 57 call and STO December 57 call even @ 13.44
SVXY covered calls
I sold the balance of my December 85 calls this morning from 5.20 to 5.30 and this completes my covered call position. If the FED does not raise rates I may get called away and if it does nothing I get to keep the premium. Either way, I will be happy.
SVXY Roll
BTC August 26, 60 calls, STO December 70 calls for a credit of 0.50 cents.

I have been building up my cash balances in my accounts so I need a nice correction in late August or September. I was thinking that a sacrifice of a few politicians would help my positions.

If we can get a close above 65, I see the possibility of 85 to 90 as long as the FED is stable until the end of the year. FD, I have been wrong before.
