The Accumulator Trade 1 Update 03 March 2011: Position Closed
Wednesday, March 2, 2011 at 03:36PM
In todays trading session we sold the remaining 50 Call Options on Silver Wheaton Corporation (SLW) for $2.72 per contract. These are the March 2011, Call Options, at a strike price of $42.00 for which we paid an average cost to $2.19 per contract, so today’s profit was in the region of 24%.
In total then we have the following:
100 contracts sold for a profit of 5%
50 contracts sold for a profit of 32%
50 contracts sold for a profit of 24%
The average return is 16.5%.
This trade spent most of its time under water as silver prices were sold off fairly aggressively during the period that we have held them. We did average down in the belief that we could catch an upturn and had to sweat it as prices headed south. However, with time running out on this trade we were in danger of a total wipe out so decided to take some of our cash off the table when it first showed a small profit as safety precaution and so we sold half of the position for a 5% profit. We then followed up with another sale for a profit of 32% and finally today we closed out this position for a profit of 24%.
These call options are 'in the money' and you may wish to let them run a little longer and that’s your prerogative and good luck with it, if you choose to go that way.
This has been a very difficult trade to handle, real messy at times, so we hope that trade number two will be a cleaner buy and sell move.
PS: Just in case you missed it we have just closed an option play on www.silver-prices.net with an average profit of 96.5% on Silver Wheaton Call Options. Click here to read more.

I just closed out my trade. I averaged down to 50 contracts @ $0.89 per. I sold 25 @ 2.85, 15 @ 3.40, and 10 @ 3.55. That is roughly a 250% profit on my total position.
Well done, its always a boost to get good news from one of our readers.
I must say, I thought SLW underperformed the metal. With $35 silver, I thought SLW would at least hit $50. Maybe it will next week and I left money on the table:)
Our target remains unchanged at $100.00.
However, the chart looks rather oversold at the moment, so its a battle between the technical indicators and the fundamentals.
