July Updated

 One month after I posted, market continues to melt upwards.  Portfolio up from 166k to 215k.  It struggled slightly at the end of June and beginning of July, but it's been straight up with the likes of AMD, PLTR, NVDA, HOOD, AAPL, QBTS, GOOG



And with earnings seasons ramping up, time to pick up winners and losers.  TSLA dropped 10% from 330 to 300, bought some calls and sold some puts.  Continue to play two strategies, long term (covered calls + cash secured puts) in one account.  And monthly options (naked calls) for the other account.  Both are doing well, however the monthly options account continues to jump exponentially.  The temptation is to go bigger and bigger each time with the trades (as well as more trades).  But risk management and managing greed has to come into play.

Lord help me.
