Overseas Shiphldg (OSG)

OSG Weekly Chart

Not a good start for this one. Bought put based on Tuesday break of the asymmetrical triangle. Additionally, the uptrend line also broken. But Overseas (OSG) has recovered back into the triangle. Maybe it is not a triangle after all. A rectangular?

Visa (V)

Visa Weekly Chart

Visa (V) has given me a sell signal. Looks like a rising flag has been broken. Support at 55. Bought put.

MGM Mirage (MGM)

MGM Weekly Chart

MGM Mirage (MGM) may be continuing the downtrend. I'm anticipating a drop after the rising flag has been broken. Thus, I have bought puts for MGM.

August 08 Performance

Simply terrible. I got everything wrong. Gone into negative performance for the month of August.

AKAM Put (2+): Just lucky that it got a big drop after I bought the put.
LULU Put (1+): Sold at the bottom area of the channel. 
GES Put (-): From positive to negative!
TK Put (+): Another lucky trade that got a big drop right after I enter.
GLW Call (---): Expired worthless!
CAT Call (---): Another expired worthless!
STLD Call (---): Another worthless.

It is a tough August for me. Hopefully September will be better.
