		<description><![CDATA[... However, we can hack around the proprietary nature of WebConnect as it turns out this format is really OFX with one special (badly formatted) tag added.   And in fact, you can download an OFX file, edit it manually, then import it into Quicken.   You can even do this for a UK bank export into a USA install of Quicken!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the things I've recently started to do with my covered call trades is to try and exit the position early by trading a little bit of the maximum profit for a reduced risk of losing money.  Between Sept and Oct expiration, I attempted that by setting a limit credit order for each of my positions.  But this month, I'm trying a limit BTC order for just the call option itself.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And yet another catch up on trades completed but not yet blogged about.  A position using MBIA Inc (MBI) as the underlying is the last of my covered calls done within the GI portfolio for November expiration.  Sadly, it's been too long since I initiated the position for me to remember exactly why I went ahead with this trade.  Which is really another way to say I may be doing too much experimentation and not enough of sticking to a plan.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Continuing my catch up on recent trades, I did another covered call against AFLAC (AFL) for November expiration.  This time, I stepped back from using a screening tool and simply looked for an opportunity where the underlying position was something I'd feel more comfortable holding for a couple months if I got caught holding it past expiration.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I've been *real* busy the last couple weeks and am finally getting a chance to catch my breath and post a few things to my blog.  Since I'm trying to use my blog as a record of my attempts to grow my "Geographic Independent"-qualified income, and I'm still selling covered calls in my quest to learn about options trading, that means I should have written about my recent trades already.  Better late than never I guess.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As I've recently posted, I've expanded my trading strategies to include using long puts on range-bound equities exhibiting high volatility.  Even though I've only completed two round-trip executions of this strategy, both using AIG, I've already come up with a few notes that I want to record for the future.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[October's option expiration was this past weekend, and like last month, we had three covered calls in play that ended with this month's expiration.  Two of those got assigned (AIG and Intel) and one simply expired (Eastman Kodak), thus we did reasonably well in matching our maximum profit.  But before I provide that summary, let me digress with a little summary of what we've learned so far in trading covered calls.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So I've been watching AIG pretty closely given my current in-play covered call trade, and I've noticed that the daily highs and lows can be pretty large swings.  I've also noticed that, over the last few days, it seems to be swinging through the same range of prices over and over again.  Having just read about trading puts, I decided to dip my toe in the water by doing a long put with AIG.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As you might gather from reading this blog, I've been doing lots of research into options and options trading strategies.  I've just recently decided that it was time to position myself for the next step:  putting what I've learned into use on more of my family's investments.  A large chunk of our portfolio is in Fidelity IRAs, so for me, this meant completing the paperwork to move over to one of them to a ThinkOrSwim IRA.]]></description>
