August Trades

Trade History

• Converted 49.79 USD. Questrade gave me 49.46 CAD. Withdrew by ETF to bank account.
• Changed YPF Covered Call Strike 15.00 expiration October 20th Sell To Open order from Limit 0.50 to 0.25. Executed on July 30th.
• ROI 1.27% if it expires worthless.

Gut Check

• Changed my Sell-to-Open order from Limit 0.50 to Limit 0.25 as the price on YPF had dropped significantly and it was no longer reasonable to expect that sort of premium even though around the July options expiration it had been at that level.
• If it didn't fulfill, I was ready to risk a Strike 12.50 at 1.35 in January. If I got assigned, I'd more or less have broken even and at least got my money back to put into something that required less watching.
• Still stuck waiting for options expiration on the other stocks.
• ROI for the July 21 to August 18th options period is 0.17% because of dividend payments from CIM to both the Margin Account and the TFSA Account. The other open Covered Calls haven't expired yet.
• ROI for August to November at this point looks like 2.26%.
