Subject: Trader of the month nomination- Michael Patruno
Hello My name is Michael Patruno,
I’m nominating myself for trader of the month.
Moreover, I Started the AIE- Cashflow on demand course on the 11-9-18
after studying. And completing the online course I bought my first block of 100 shares
on the 8-10-18 and sold a call option on the 9-10-18 these are the details:
In Addition, I bought Under Armor (UAA) for $19.10 per share x 100 = $1,910.
I sold a November option contract with a strike price of $19.50.with an expiry date of 9-11-18.
The premium was $1.30 per share x 100 = $130
if exercised on expiry another $0.40 per share = $40
Total maximum profit $170
Approximately 9%
As of today, the 5-11-18 share price is currently sitting at $23.70 per share with 4 days to expiry.
I’m really enjoying this journey and looking forward to many more trades in the future. Also, it been such a great learning process and gives me great direction for the future.
Thank you for the opportunity
Michael
So that, what does 9% mean to you? Well, one way of looking at it is 4 1/2 years interest at the bank in one month – And by most people’s measure that is a cracking return.
Then Congratulations, Michael, on a well earned title of Trader of the Month October 2018, from all of us in the AIE community.
