Going long on US market

One call option with strike at 305.

The base is simple - Recent FOMC announcement revealed that the Fed will continue to push the market higher. The hitting of a new high level signaled the buy.

Kommentera:

@ShastryAnanth, I was using the minor guidance of buying the SP 500 at the close of the market.

At the moment of this review, I see that it dipped but eventually began to gain going into the green.

Kommentera:

Note - 24.62% profit on the option since June 20.

I am considering implementing an update to the risk management side. Namely, having a mental stop loss not for the option's price, but a market level.

Kommentera:

I stuck to it. Incoming rate announcement..
