3 Options Trades (done in my options class)

This YouTube video (click here) demonstrates how I (Lilia) closed my profitable options trades on Expiration Friday.  I also explain the timing for each strategy and how I selected the strike prices.

The following 3 trades were done in my options class.


TRADE 1 (sell "naked" put on GLD)
6/2/2014 (check out my impeccable timing!)
sell (to open) 1 July 2014 $117 put at $1.27

7/18/2014 (exp)
let this put expire

Gross profit:  $127


TRADE 2 (buy "debit put spread" on RAD)
6/6/2014 (see timing on chart)
buy (to open) 10 July 2014 $8 puts at $0.55
sell (to open) 10 July 2014 $7 puts at $0.25
Net debit:  $0.30 or $300 ($0.30 x 10 x 100 = $300)

7/18/2014 (exp)
sell (to close) the July $8 puts only at $0.90
let the July $7 puts expire

Gross profit:  $600


TRADE 3 (buy "calendar spread" on XLI)
6/9/2014 (check out my impeccable timing!)
buy (to open) 1 Sept 2014 $54 put at $1.08
sell (to open) 1 July 2014 $54 put at $0.40
Net debit:  $0.68 or $68 ($0.68 x 1 x 100 = $68)

7/18/2014 (exp)
sell (to close) Sept $54 put at $1.17
let July $54 put expire

Gross profit:  $49 (ROC = 72% in 5 weeks) .... that's right....72% ROC!
