Continue to sell put options on semicon stocks for second half of 2026. I aim for low delta and strike price below technical support to collect options premiums.

My gain for first half of 2026 was 8%+ and slightly underperform the indices. On the bright side, it is at least doing better than last year and can pay for my caifan.

Staying cautious during H1 and not being too greedy when selling put options. Will continue trading cautiously as US markets defy gravity. 🚀

Found issues with TigerAI. When I ask TigerAI the risk of my sell put options getting assigned, it retrieve incorrect current stock prices. It also doesn't seem to understand options which could be seen from the screenshot below.

Not buying the dip now if Cathie Wood is buying. Wait for it to near $100 first.

Avoiding IPO stock. Could be To The Moon and Back.

Looking at AI software companies in June...🚀

$Schwab U.S. Large-Cap Growth ETF(SCHG)$ Making some caifan money.

Will continue to sell cash secured put options in May. In fact my account was positive during May 2024 and May 2025. Not selling stocks but sell put options in May. [Smile] 

Sell far OTM put options on PLTR.

Both countries don't seem to be giving in. They probably will escalate or Trump will postpone the deadline again.

Arkk can't even beat QQQ performance over the last 3 years. I would start to worry instead if they are removed from Nasdaq instead. Not a fan of Ark funds.

Wait for US troops to reach Middle East and see if Trump will flip again. He can always change his mind.

Not so optimistic. Market would probably give bigger discount when US is run by a mad king.

Hmm...as the saying goes don't fall in love with the stocks, perhaps they don't exactly work the same way.

HALO seems like a better bet. TACO may not work this time round. Trump could start the fire but he might not be able to put it out.

Don't believe it is really over. Trump words can't really be trusted unless all the 3 countries involved in the war officially say it's over. Cannot believe Taco man's words. https://edition.cnn.com/2026/03/09/politics/trump-iran-war-contradictions

Not hopeful if situation doesn't improve and Iran war drags on.

Can buy if 1 lot is 1 share. If 1 lot more than $5k, I would wait. [Sad]  

Sold put option on PLTR to make caifan money. ☹️
