Arbitrage Account 2010

This is an arbitrage account. This means funds were BORROWED to SPECULATE in the stock market using ETF Covered Call strategy.

As of 2010, it is no longer “kosher” to borrow funds from credit cards to speculate so I’m using other cash sources to fund this account but it may revert to arbitrage at some point in the future. These are the transactions for 2010.
