Summary

SGD portfolio:

  

Portfolio value increased by around $3.3k. Didn't add anything this month as funds are limited.

Several of my counters have reported excellent results with increased in DPU in their latest updates.

 

I have done a quick review over here.

Syfe Core Growth portfolio:

 

TWR hit a nice 6.38%. The absolute profit is not big since this is still a small experimental portfolio. But the feeling is still good nonetheless.

 

Have DCAed into this portfolio yesterday and plan to continue this every month.

USD / HKD portfolio: 

 

Added a small position of PayPal when the share price dropped below my entry target price. 

 

The Futu PUT that I sold for $3.60 took an unexpected hit when the People's Daily reported that Futu Holdings and UP Fintech face regulatory risks as China's new personal data privacy law takes effect on 1st Nov 2021.

 

The share price of both counters dropped swiftly within a short period. I decided to close the contract early for damage control but still took a hit of about US$1,085.

Such is the risk of China stocks nowadays.

This single contract turned my otherwise profitable month to a loss-making one of US$577.17 (~S$778).

Overall I'm still in the black for my options trading since I started in March this year.

Current P&L is around S$2,700 off a base of S$20,000. I think it's not too bad for a 7 months endeavour.

Hopefully this amount can continue to grow exponentially. 

  

Moving forward I will continue to use options to supplement my investable income.
