A Smattering of ONTs

Finally had a chance to try some new overnight trades....admittedly, a work in progress. But, through the first week I survived two upgrades on short positions (2 out of 7 trades, what are the odds of that?) as well as options expiration Friday.

10/18 BZH short + 1.11 %
VPHM short + .94 %

10/19 NDAQ long + 1.45 %
MYL long + .82 %

10/20 KBH short - .61 %
ALKS short - .46 %
BOOM short + 1.39 %

Would love to be able to try MAX trading, but my work schedule sort of prohibits that. However, I can screen for trade candidates during the lunch hour and manage to get a couple of minutes at the close to make trades ( or enter "market on close" orders if done prior to 2:30 central time).

I can avoid announced earnings dates, but, the pitfalls of unexpected news and upgrades/downgrades loom. Will try to continue this with weekly updates if my motivation maintains (ie, if the trades work out!).

Happy trading all. Beautiful fall weekend here in central Texas.

Cheers
