Bank Stimulus Plan Announced - Taking Profits

| 0 Comments
The Obama administration is promising an aggressive effort to combat the worst financial crisis in seven decades, unveiling a program that could mobilize well over $1 trillion in public and private support to get the frozen credit markets functioning again.

Well as they are speaking the markets are in free fall. The Q's have gone down over 2% from the open and I decided to take my profits on my put trade here. They may continue lower, but I'm taking what I can.

For recap I was in 40 put contracts of the Mar 30 Puts on the QQQQ (QAVOD) with a cost basis of $1.10. I sold my contracts at $1.35 which gave me a greater than 22% gain on this trade.
