While the Diary of a Mad Hedge Fund Trader focuses on investment over a one week to six-month time frame, Mad Day Trader, provided by Bill Davis, will exploit money-making opportunities over a brief ten minute to three day window. It is ideally suited for day traders, but can also be used by long-term investors to improve market timing for entry and exit points.
I would like to make one adjustment today on APA.
My suggestion is to close the short call position.
Buy to Close the October $52.50 call on APA for $1.30.
The will result in a profit of 25 cents per contract and we will still have the uneven strangle in place.
