TRADES FOR THE WEEK OF OCTOBER 31-NOVEMBER 11, 2016

On Friday, October 28th (trade was made after weekly summary was published):

  • I sold about half of the IBB puts today and locked in some of those profits while keeping half the puts and all of the common stock short position in IBB.

On Wednesday, November 2nd:

  • I nibbled a few more shares of $TST-The Street, Inc. I didn’t get filled on many of my orders last week and I’m going to put in a few bids over the next few days this week and next to finish building this position up into a small position. *Consider this a TradeAlert for all of the times I’ll bid on this thing today and/or in the next week or so.
