This was a slightly unprofitable week with a loss of $450.
Although we have profits in all of the open positions, this was not particularly satisfying since the market had a major move to the upside and our gains were minimal. We were being conservative.
A $10K options account requires careful risk control.
We try to take small losses (mandatory 50%) such as was the case with the VXX.
Currently we have three positions that are favored by an uptrend and one hedge.
We will await a pullback to support, or a continuation of the uptrend to initiate new positions.
We are using just $ 2,410 of the $ 10K.
At present, we are long LNG with Sept. 15 calls that we bought @ $.70 and closed @ $ .95
We are also long the TBT (20yr Bond short) which goes higher with interest rates. This is a play on the move from bonds into equities. The last position we have is long JBHT Sept 55 puts @ $2.75.
They closed at $3.30 and reflect some balance as well as taking advantage of the fact that the Transportation Index (DJ-20) is lagging the rest of the market. JBHT has now fallen and closed below its 200 day moving average but may be on the way to test support @ $50.25-50.50.

Option and Overall Comments
We lost $ 280 last week. Our gain for the year was reduced to $ 44,078.
We have four long and one short in options positions remaining, the CSCO Jan 20 Calls, the JBHT Puts, LNG, and TBT Calls and the short FB Calls against our long position.
The Stock table includes twenty-two long stock positions: ARII, BC, CDTI, GT, HL, NBG, PICO, SNSS, JPM (2), FB, AAPL, TXGE, AIVN, LEI, LEOM, VELT, RIMM, RWM, XCO, XBOR, WPRT.
The options call for a $ 2,500 investment unless otherwise started, while each stock position requires $ 5,000 unless specifically stated. We are basing money management on a hypothetical $ 100,000.00 and are using $ 4,268 in the options positions and $ 87,099 in the 22 long stock positions for a total of $ 91,367.00 with $8,633.00 in cash. These figures are approximate. We do not count commission costs and there may be errors.
Executions that have occurred at or near the open or close of trading sometimes vary from our actual numbers. For example, when something opens down and it is through our price, we take the next trade whether it is an uptick or continues lower. This sometimes results in a 50% trade that is slightly above or below the exact number…
Previous Week’s Recommendations and
