I'm voting trump in this poll, so at least I get a consolation prize if he wins. King of the Grifters, truly terrifying given how close to war the world is right now

I think we are in for a period of significant uncertainty. In addition to the election, the middle east is very volatile too. This could be good for gold stocks, with increased demand for safe haven assets.

I don't understand the market recently at all. PAGP has fallen dramatically, despite being right before a big dividend payout, breaking a long standing pattern. Additionally, VRN has collapsed today, despite making strong earnings.

I don't swim because I don't like cold water. I do, however, run regularly and add core strength exercises. Cheap and effective health benefits :)

Got in last year and took good profits early on AEM, NEM, and PAAS. More recently, I have sold DeGrey, Gold Road, and Predictive Discovery. Still holding decent positions in Northern Star and Perseus, while selling puts on GOLD and NEM to generate some extra cash. Will look to add to remaining positions on pullbacks when they inevitably come about.

$GOLD 20250321 15.0 PUT$ Closed before the Mali dispute emerged. Watching GOLD and NEM closely for new short put opportunities.

$GOLD 20250321 15.0 PUT$ Easy directional trade. Closed at 40% profit with 5 months remaining.

$ARCC 20250321 17.0 PUT$ Banked 50% profit with 5 months to go. 

$AM 20241220 13.0 PUT$ Easy money in gas pipelines.

$AM 20241220 13.0 PUT$ Easy trade heading into winter. Now for EQT to take us through until the new year!

$EQT 20241018 29.0 PUT$ Closed this position to continue accumulating income while waiting for shoulder season to pass.

$DVN 20241025 44.0 CALL$ 6 week call options closed after 3 days for almost 50%. A silver lining to the stock taking a big hit.

$DVN 20240906 41.5 PUT$ Wheeling up and out after collecting another divvy. 

$EQT 20240927 29.0 PUT$ Rolled the short put further out after realizing 50% of the premium as profit. Step by step, reducing the cost basis of my shares. 

$ARCC 20260116 17.0 PUT$ Cashed in on long dated puts. Easy money.

$EQT 20240816 33.0 CALL$ More bonus yield while waiting for winter. Reducing effective cost basis week by week.

Cool game! Don't think I'm clever enough to solve the problems though!

$EQT 20240809 34.0 CALL$ Picked up some extra yield on my long EQT position while I'm waiting for natgas demand to pick up heading towards winter.

$ARCC 20241220 18.0 PUT$ Closed this before the sell-off to realize a solid win. ARCC is easily my best performer this year. Just racking up premium, with more to come.

$EQT 20240726 36.0 CALL$ Picked up some extra yield by selling a covered call before ex-dividend day. Turns a 2% yielding stock into 6% yield on a pro-rata basis. Heading into shoulder season for Nat Gas, I will be looking to aggressively sell more calls prior to winter. Prosperous investing everyone.
