$10K Virtual Portfolio Status

Not a good day for the $10KP!

Our AAPL bear call came back to haunt us and Dell’s little move is too little too late to make us happy.  We’re almost all cash though and the losses are very much paper losses (other than DELL) as our Apple caller has $3 in premium and we can fix him on a run-up by rolling him into more premium while our AMGN caller is all premium and on track, as is out NEM caller and XMSR is dead center in our range.

All those spreads read as negative because time is a factor that is assigned no value in your virtual portfolio.  This makes it very disconcerting for new spread players becuase your virtual portfolio balance will often go negative, sometimes to the point where you really want to bail and that’s why it is so critical for new members to read back a full month of posts and comments as well as the most excellent K1 Project as there is very little you will go through during a month of trading that isn’t old hat to the people who have come before you. 

Why go through the anguish yourself when you can just read about it?
