CLOSE: United Airlines (UAUA) Iron Condor -7.4%

United Airlines continued to trend down today pushing the chart into a bearish stance.??? We are sitting right above support at 30.? If it falls through it will be rapid and ugly quickly putting us at our max loss of -70%.??? I chickened out and decided to use some of my profits from today to close down the trade for an actual ROI of -7.4% in one month.

CLOSE: Deck Outdoors (DECK) for +14.6% in one day!

I didn’t get a chance to write this up before we exited…? I entered this trade at 3:45 yesterday as a short straddle on earnings.? I got a credit of +20.62 and exited today for a debit of -14.85 giving us an actual ROI of +14.6% in one day!? Man, these short straddles are doing very well!

CLOSE: Arch Coal (ACI) for -23.9%

We closed ACI today for a loss. I look at converting it and just couldn’t see a decent way to do it. I’m no longer bullish on the chart and feel like a calendar would be much more appropriate. (hint hint)

With this exit we ended a slow death and generated an actual ROI of -23.9% over three very hard fought weeks!? I just suck at diagonals right now!
