Option Trades (Week 47 - 2024) I was concerned with $Marathon Digital Holdings Inc(MARA)$ not filling the gap as majority of the other miners had a nice bounce after filling the gap. However, the price movement today showed a strong support after filling the gap and quickly recovered. As part of the monthly income series, selling 1 lots of the following $IREN 20241220 9.5 PUT$ $CLSK 20241220 12.5 PUT$ $MARA 20241220 18.5 PUT$ as part of my proxy play, taking advantage of the current high IV climate for good p
As shared previously, trump's victory resulted in BTC breaking out and I mentioned that if this was real, it is just the start of the rally. Crypto miners continue to be my proxy play to BTC but do note that these companies are never fundamentally strong and really depend on BTC price to really moon. Do manage your risk to reward, it is okay to have some allocation to these instruments. Volatility is your friend in the option market.

$Marathon Digital Holdings Inc(MARA)$ As expected, the results failed to meet estimates and is looking to pull back sharply. In my opinion, all the mining companies would need to transit through at least 1 to 2 more quarters of earnings to settle with a new baseline post halving and for their expansion plans to play out. This is in conjunction with BTC price going up (hopefully) and pull the miners along with the improved sentiments. Am overall bullish. Lets Freaking Go Please! LFGP!
Option Trades (Week 46 - 2024) Sold 1 lot of the following $MARA 20241213 21.0 PUT$ $IREN 20241213 11.0 PUT$ $CIFR 20241213 7.0 PUT$ as part of the weekly income strategy. It is difficult to make any move when the stock price is moving fast but the increase in IV provides for the premium even at lower delta. This would require a fair bit of risk management with the run up in prices. However, I continue to bet on this being the start of the rally. Do exercise caution. Lets Freaking Go Please! (LFGP)
Today, like to share on how I manage my portfolio across various brokerage. The current allocation by asset market value as follow: 35% SG Market, 45% US Market and 10% in Cash (for expenses) and Bonds (SSB etc.) SG Market - 50% REITS across the blue chip REITS, not more than 8% in a single holding. 35% across all 3 banks with OCBC and DBS being the most heavy. 15% cash. While US has been doing well as of late, SG market may be boring but boredom can be enjoyable as it provides some peace of mind. The strategy is to DCA monthly and collect dividends with the cash flow helping to DCA or even to aid in expense short fall when required. Cashflow is like blood in investments. The peace in SG market has provided much calm to the overall portfolio during periods where US face high volatilit

$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ TSLA has risen quite abit over the past few weeks and is due for a correction. Long term wise, the technicals remain bullish with the current political climate favouring TSLA more than before. It would be good to correct to between $300 - $310 range to retest support and close the gap. While people often say dont fall in love with a company, I cannot help it with TSLA as I love what they are doing. Lets Freaking Go Please! LFGP!
$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ Tesla has been performing well overall, with strong sales growth and expanding production capacity. The company continues to innovate in electric vehicles and energy solutions, while facing competition and regulatory challenges. Recent earnings reports often highlight increased deliveries and profitability, but keep an eye on market dynamics and economic factors that could impact its future performance. Technicals is pointing towards uptrend and should hold and/or go back to $300 by this year if $220 can hold. Am long/bullish.

DCA continues as BTC continue higher. The high IV continues to provide for good premiums. I continue to remain bullish at least up till end of 2025 or early 2026 given that Trump will be taking office. LFGP!
In my opinion, regardless CPI coming in hot or cool, it might be a sell the new event. If it comes in hot, it may lead to a pause in Dec's rate cut decision with market further correcting. If it comes in below or within estimates, it may also be a sell the news event, which we have seen often in the past more often than not. Instead, we should focus on the company fundamentals, plan your trades, trade the plan. Lets Freaking Go Please! LFGP!
