Attention to My Followers on Covestor

I just wanted to send a quick message to those following my portfolio on Covestor. Please keep in mind that Covestor does not track options positions which has resulted in a material adverse impact on my performance as tracked by Covestor.

For example, my Covestor portfolio lists a long stock position in (Raymond James Financial) RJF that was called away due to a covered call trade. In addition, the thrashing my longs took in the market meltdown was offset by puts I owned on US Global Investors (GROW), which skyrocketed as that stock collapsed.

Note: Incidentally, I initiated a covered call trade in RJF yesterday.
