Trader of the Month – June 2018

Well, another month and more success, against a background of choppy market conditions. And this month’s Trader Of The Month nomination is a great example of taking action steps and following the process. Also, this member has a stronger appetite for Higher Volatility and is trading well with that view.

Moreover, This is a great example of just how important taking action really is and highlights the importance of taking what you know and applying it with Action! A Huge Congratulations to Damon Parker. And our Trader of The Month June 2018.

Hi Andrew
I’d like to nominate a trade please in Chessapeak energy (CHK)
On the 17/5/18 I bought a parcel of Chessapeak energy a gas stock in the US (CHK) shares for $4.11
I immediately sold the 29/6/18 calls for $4.50 strike for $0.29
I set a stop loss at $3.80

Upon expiration the shares were trading above $5 so were called away but achieved a capital gain of $0.39 and an income of $0.29 so a total of $0.68 or 6% for 6 weeks, if my maths is right.

Being a newbie I had a position of 100 shares so made $68 a great learning curve though. And a higher IV stock. More spicy than you recommend and teach. I haven’t seen an email for who the trader of the month for June was must have gone missing somewhere

Regards Damon

Starting small is what this is all about – bottom line is 6% over 6 weeks is an excellent return, all with active risk management in place and all from out on the land in the middle of Western Australia – great work buddy!

Furthermore, Big Congratulations to Damon Parker who is our Trader of The Month Winner for June 2018, great work and truly well deserved!
