Thanks!

 

Keep it up brother. At this rate, i think u can get there faster.

 

Thanks!

 

What type of investment vehicles do you typically trade and how long do you hold them? Keep up the good trading.

 

Just a quick update on my portfolio. Since this February, I took out more than $50k to fund my start up company.

For 2014, I had +41.9% in 2014 or +136% since Jan 2012:

very good performance.....your journal will become much more interesting if you start talking about your strategy in general terms or maybe some stocks/some trades in specific terms.

One of the successful journals on ET.....Keep it up!!

 

Thanks. I will try to be more specific in my trades.

I attached my latest IB report (May 2014).

 

It's pretty easy to figure it out.

He's long high beta stocks.

 

Well, I don't trade high beta stocks. Otherwise I would get wiped out pretty quickly at any time due to the margin requirement.

There are few strategies that I use including:

- option writing
- long on high yield stocks
- arbitrage on time value
- fundamental analysis

I would admit that over 50% of my profit was due to the option writing which many people told me that I was jumping around a minefield. I have been told that I didn't know what I was doing which I agreed with them at some degree as I didn't know all the terms in option (gamma, theta...)

This is my performance so far:

Great performance!
