TLDR: Most of our portfolio got REKT, so I had been sending my US portfolio into "hibernation mode", while staying the course to use PUT options to DCA, and trading options to try and earn some extra dough. Luckily, I had learnt how to use options to reduce the pain, and it had helped a lot mentally and financially. Being a long term investors, this high interest rate environment (hopefully temporar...

I never recommend trading short dated far out of the money options. It is very risky and is almost always a losing bet when you are trading just about any ticker. Most of the time there is just not enough liquidity, or buyers and sellers, to make an option contract's price move. Even if you chose the correct direction of price action sometimes there are no buyers or sellers to push the price up.

Today The Buyers have prevailed and put an end to the selling for now.
10 year US Treasury Bond Yields hit 14 year highs today.
But have then Declined to turn Red for the day so far.... This is allowing the Equity market to JUMP up!
This is Good news and a Needed Relief for the Market.
The Indicies were Green Monday and Tuesday of this week (10/17-10/18) But the Sellers won out for Wednesday and Thursday. Although Not without a LOT OF VOLATILITY in the market during the day.

Investors are preparing for what may be the worst reporting season in two years when Wall Street's third quarter earnings season begins this week.
According to FactSet, analysts expect the S&P 500's profits growth rate to be just 2.9%, which, if realized, would be the worst year-over-year (yoy) growth since Q3 2020.
The index's projected revenue increase of 8.7% yoy raises additional concerns because it would be the first quarterly revenue growth below 10% sin...

How's your trading in Q3 2022? After a strong rally in July, the equity market turned lower and registered negative returns in Q3. The Federal Reserve raised interest rates even further due to persistent inflation and energy-price shocks from the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Markets are dynamic, but most trading strategies are static and do not adjust to changing markets. By analyzing volatility and adjusting your trading approach accordingly you can take your trading to a whole new level. As a trader, you have to know what to change, when to change it and why. Then you can succeed. No trading strategy will work 100% of the time, but it’s a trader’s responsibility to find ways to make his trading str...

Not that great but also not at the worst since I'd already made adjustments before the negativity happened
I think is the 3Q 2022 earning press released results & maybe the unemployment data news
I'd reduced my holding positions long ago as I'd already expected an earning recession & a bad proven past CPI re...

● Which news event had the biggest impact on your trading results?
People usually sell stocks when they hear bad news. The most recent is that the Federal Reserve will continue to aggressively raise interest rates. Government bond yields in the United States have risen sharply, adding to the turbulence. Interest rate expectations also have an impact on the Treasury yield. The CPI report triggered the market swings...

MonkeyGee : I agree, there will be no growth with this president. we will have to wait for 2024.
doctorpot1 OP MonkeyGee : oil price hiked in October as well, so not optimistic about Oct CPI
GoLeopard : thanks for sharing.
I learnt something from your post about BBBY. Be Patience.
In the case of selling Put, market fluctuations always drop near to the strike price, and one has to buy over the shares. I have no intention to keep the shares. So sometimes i choose "Buy to Close" the positions, just get rid of it and incur losses.
Next day, the market reverses. and there you go, pulling my hair again.
Paper loss is not the worst, but if you can roll the options and wait for months, and get back your money with some profits, why not?!
Always remind myself, roll if possible before close.
doctorpot1 OP GoLeopard : glad this had been of help to you![[undefined]](https://static.moomoo.com/nnq/emoji/static/image/default/default-black.png?imageMogr2/thumbnail/36x36 "undefined")

yea rolling option is an interesting concept as we always earn the time value... the drawback is opportunity cost and taking on continued risk of the share price dropping or company going bankrupt.
but if there are no better alternatives, then rolling is not that bad.
GoLeopard doctorpot1 OP : yes, options preferably traded on good stock with sound fundamentals. For speculative stock, have to exit fast and also protect with a spread. BBBY is one example.
