July Account Activity

Although July was a profitable month, the market decline may have created challenges for my account. Today I closed two short put positions to free up margin.

If markets continue to decline, I will be required to close more positions to meet margin requirements. Hopefully things will improve and my income will not be impacted next month.

Listed below is my account activity for the month of July
