Report card of 2014

So, 2014 has ended. Lets see how much options income and dividend had I generated.


Options Income= $3994.84
Dividend=$296.58


So that worked out to be $4291.42.
Total Capital Outlay was $47000.
Current Value was $35555


Still in a lost due to ESI,ARO and VALE. I'm confident that by pumping in more cash to invest other DIVIDENDS ARISTOCRATS, I will be able to turn into profit and higher cashflow in the future..
We shall see how much can I generate in year 2015.

Decided to sell ESI options as its paying good options premium. if I get assigned, I will be able to average down the prices.

KO-$1.22 x 200shares
LOW-$0.92 x 100shares
XOM-$2.76 x 100shares
MO-$2.08 x 100 shares
This works out to be $820 annual dividends which is 2.7% yield.

Sep2014

This month will have lower income generated because I've decided to create a portfolio of stocks to reduce the risk of putting all eggs in one basket.


Sell MO Oct14 45 Put = $0.50x 100 shares = $50
Sell KO Oct14 42 Put= $0.45 x 100shares = $45
Sell WMT Oct14 76Put=$0.58 x 100shares=$58
Sell WAG Oct14 60Put=$0.93 x 100shares=$93
Sell LOW Oct14 52.5Put=$0.43 x 100 shares=$43
Sell ESI Oct14 4put=$0.30 x 200 shares=$60--- Find that ESI is at the low price now and it will be good average out my position if I were to get called. if not I will just received the option income, As long as they remain in the Exchange and did not get delisted, years to come, I believe it would breakeven..


Total Income collected for Sep14 is $289+$60 for ESI sell put on 7Oct= $349.
ARO and ESI I think is gone case.. haha.. will just leave it there and see what happens 30years later... I shall focus on building a portfolio with 10 stocks and try to balance them with 10% weightage on each stocks.


Current holding is 5 ARO, 2 VALE. 2 ESI

Aug2014

Had decided not to sell weekly options because the premium may not cover the comm fee in the long run. so decided to sell on monthly again..


Sell MO Sep14 42 Put = $0.63x 200 shares = $126
Sell KO Sep14 42 Call= $0.20 x 400shares = $80
Sell ARO Sep14 3.5Call=$0.16 x 1000shares=$160

Total Income collected for Aug14 is $366

Current holding is 15 ARO, 4 KO, 2 VALE. 2 ESI

AugWk3 2014

Sell MO Aug14 42CALL = $0.28 x 200 shares = $56
Income collected for AugWk314 dated is $56.


Current holding is 15 ARO, 4 KO, 1 VALE, 2 ESI, 2 MO

I had found out that when stocks are being assigned, theres a comm fee of $9.90, so minimum for the premium must be more than $0.10 for it to be a profit. The good part about weekly is that chances of getting assigned is higher and if you get assigned and sell call at next higher strike price, its is more worth it..
