ONGOING EVALUATION
& TRADE
This is a non-retirement account. I am selling naked puts
against the stock.
This trade started in October 2008 and by June 2010 I had
made enough income to pay for 500 shares of Kraft. Rather
than accept assignment I am continuing to sell naked puts
until eventually assigned as Kraft remains in a tight
trading range making the selling of options viable. The goal
was to own shares of Kraft through other people's capital.
This goal has been realized. The objective now is to add to
that income until eventually assigned shares.
YEAR 1: 2008 - Trade Commenced Oct 2008 Goal for 2008:

Someone might ask WHY KRAFT? Here we are in the midst of a
market meltdown and I am looking at Kraft? Why not run to
the hills! Well it's all in the range. Kraft has been stuck
in the range of $28 to around $31.00 for literally months.
Ranges are what I look for when selling naked puts. I want
to own shares of Kraft, but not until I have made enough
capital through selling naked puts. Stocks stuck in a range
are much easier to select strike prices from than those that
travel wider ranges.
