My Happy Trading Community Articles

Our trading was spectacular this month!  Not only did most of our trades produce winners, most winners had more than +50% profits (highlighted in bold print).  In fact, most of our trades had more than +100% gain, with many trades over or near +200% gain!!  Gold was, of course, the big story this month.  We captured the "gold rush" with both November and December calls on GLD.  TSL and CTRP were our only earnings plays and both produced +200% results!  GOOG continued to go higher with the market rally; both the November and December calls (position still partially open) realized big profits.  Here are the closed trades for the month:
