October Trades

Trade History:

• Dividend of 9 cents per share ($9 per contract) on a total of 600 shares of CIM -- 0.23% ROI for December
• November 8th:
• Sold 8x RENN Covered Call Strike 4.00, Limit 0.10, expiration January 19/2013
• Sold 3x YPF Covered Call Strike 12.50, Limit 0.10, expiration January 19/2013
• January ROI will be about 0.34%.

Gut Check:

• Everything's down. Thinking of wiping the slate by selling everything and putting the money into dividend-paying stocks, but I'd never recover the loss. For now, selling what options I can. If I get assigned, it wouldn't be worse than selling right now.
• If either of the Calls get assigned, losses will finally be more than paper losses and will be pretty ugly.
