March Account Activity

I have recently returned from a vacation in Jamaica. I enjoyed my two weeks in the warm sun! Although I love to travel, I am a bit of a homebody and I feel a sense of comfort in returning to my regular routine

I hope to eventually increase my weekly option trades to ten positions per week. Although it seems like a high number of trades, it would be easy to manage a portfolio of short puts having the same expiration. I plan to sell puts on ten different underlyingings and to roll in-the-money positions to lower strike.

Listed below is my account activity for the month of March
