Day 15 Options expiry date today and it will hurt me. My experience with options has been so so. To me its pretty much like a gamble and I think unless I test new strategies with different contexts, I should stay away for the moment. All week long I was chasing a stock down (NVDA) and I lost big time. It affected my whole week performance. My first strategy is still profitable and I should stick to it. Like this morning again. Made a few gains to soothe the pain of losing with my options. What I did: Bought 400 shares of HTHT at market price of 39$. Sold it immediately at 39.50$. I also open another position in SNAP before definitively change my mind about options. Averaged down my NIO position because its at new 52 Low. My 4 open positions are at least one month long and I will not open new position unless I come out with a better strategy than just trying to bet on stock's direction. Did some research on Crude oil and I bought a call on UCO for a quick win. P/L: - 420 U
