My Options Account on August 9, 2013, Part 2

Well, today didn't finish exactly how I envisioned it but it could have been a lot worse.  My PCLN strategy worked out well as I finished up $732 on my options.  I was also up on NFLX and GOOG.  That's the good news.  The bad news is on AAPL, HLF and MA.  I was disappointed that Apple and Mastercard were down so much today.  I had expected those stocks to stay the same or move higher today but it didn't work out that way.  HLF was equally as disappointing as the stock was even or up most of the day but started going down towards the end of the day and finished down .74.  I had to buy back my 11 66 put options for .65.  I still made plenty of money on HLF this week but today I lost $133.  I was down $783 on AAPL and down $587 on MA.  My account lost $580 today and I finished just over $200 on the week.  Not bad but I need a few consistent 10% plus weeks to get me back on track.
