I have been away this morning.
I posted the aapl $300 weekly calls I bought at 9:39 for $7.90.
Had to leave the computer so I had a sell order at $11 which hit at 10:02. Wish I would have been able to monitor it as I would have been able to squeeze out another $2-$4 out of the trade.
Anyway 36% gain.

TICK has been overwhelmingly negative today.
But $VIX is not up as much as one would think.
If we can absorb all this selling and continue moving up today, I bet today puts on a nice bottoming tail and we do shoot for 1200 still this week. I had no thoughts of us being down over 1% today though, so just a guess...

The selling is big boys taking liquidity out of Fed actions. It's as good as printing money. And of course, it's the easiest way for the Fed to inject cash into the LP's

Maxi has posted a couple of those before - and then I believe other people have showed that TOS has a live feed capability.
I like them too but have very rarely seen one. Let me know if you find any links (work server doesn't support TOS) or anything, thanks!

Well, I am still in my $280 weekly aapl call trade. I wish I would have sold yesterday.
Today has turned out better than expected as I thought I was going to be down pretty big.
With appl having a mac conference tomorrow it makes you wonder what will happen to the stock price towards the end of the day.

sentimentrader Jason Goepfert According to my vendor, and this is preliminary, the NYSE TICK just hit its lowest level in history, more than -1500.$$

Yes DM was just trying to find out if that was the lowest ever. So far I can't figure out what it was on flash crash day.
I've been a buyer here - covered my AAPL weekly puts from this am and added to SPY $116 weeklies, bought FAS $22 ... GL
