Catching Fire
year-end price comparisons

Winning is grabbing momentum, profiting from it and then releasing it
A winner must be willing to embrace change and welcome challenge. The biggest “fear,” if there is one, is not of the unknown, but of becoming complacent and stagnant. An environment of change and even uncertainty can energize a mentally strong person and bring out their best.

10:51 at print 10:45am cst did combo options on FB and TWTR, in both case, bought 1 option each of write call jan 03 and buy put jan 03 for FB and 2 options each for Twtr. Our google drive spreadsheet program does not recognize option symbols so will manually add those at the end of the session tonight. FB jan3 write 59 call at .29 and FB jan3 buy put 56 at .59. TWTR jan 3 write 71.50 call at 1.95 and TWTR jan3 buy 65.50 put at 2.25.
The options above are now listed on the spreadsheet scorecard.
WC stands for writing a call and what follows is the amount I got for it
P is purchased Put and what follows is what I paid for it and then what is it worth now

Since this is a cash account, I can only write calls per the amount of stock I have. Since I hold 200 shares of TWTR, I can only write 2 Calls.
Thursday leftovers
Thursday Morning
My Catching Fire stock portfolio has had a very good run up. It's time to protect the gains. I will do that with some hedging such as buying protective puts. Please note that the spreadsheet product I use does not recognize stock options. Hence I can only add and calculate those manually. I will do that at the end of the day howeve I will note the transactions on this site.
If conditions are right on Thursday, I will do a combo option play...will sell a Jan Call and buy a Jan Put. Will note the actual details here when it happens.
Regarding the Catching Fire portfolio. My real account in part mimics most but not all of the same stocks at different buying prices and different quantities. I will say this, NFLX, TSLA, and of course AAPL are definitely three of the stocks in my real account.

Are you going after the big fish?
This site isn't all about the stock market. However, with the daily updating of the stock market, it took most of my time. I am still going to discuss the stock market but also going to relate more to other parts of this site - such as the paintings, my hobbies such as estate sale treasure hunting, movies, autos, etc.
I have developed a good following if the Blogger statistics I get are correct. It will be interesting to see how they change in the coming months. As stated, I will start a new public stock market portfolio. There's so technical issues to work out. One being displaying Options.
