You've been missed.  I had a bad fall while fly fishing and screwed up my knee pretty bad.  I'll be stuck on the couch pestering all of you regularly for awhile.    I'll have to be careful or I'll run out of cash next week.  

Had to roll a few puts forward this week.  Or at least I chose not to get exercised today.  RDS-B and EXC are looking weak.

I have been fighting the temptation to dabble in more oil as it's under 1% of my port. My big moves this week were the same as last, trying the pick the near-term bottom in QQQ and MSFT and selling puts that are 4-8 days from expire. So far so good and I breathe a sigh of relief every Friday when I have cash again. All the covered calls I sold the past few months are expiring worthless. I'll have to resist selling any new ones on stocks I now think are fair to underpriced.

Told myself I was going to buy some new big tech shares with all this weekly income. I am about ready to pull the trigger and at least start some positions in GOOGL and MSFT. Pulling back to AUG prices doesn't encourage me to get too aggressive yet. I am working under the assumption there will be a largish stimulus passed within weeks. After the election is too late. They will be busy litigating the election in some states by then. I don't think I will regret restoring some of my cash before election night. That is the plan for now.
