Nice little late day whoosh there to push us back over the line on all indices today. I bought the dip.  Bought some AIG today at 37.45, and right here at the bell it's making me a loser after being slightly green all day. Ah well, $80 or bust  I stared at SQNM wondering if it had bottomed but didn't feel like pulling the trigger to find out. But it was close.  No other trades. Hope everyone made some money today and will do so tomorrow. Members, please post your results along with your RDA of smileys!  |

Picked up more SOXL at $66.7
Just watched. ERX had a nice little spike there at the end I guess on the Gulf Drilling news.
TNA had a nice spike at the end too. Overall nice day.

Another slow but satisfactory day that actually started fast then backed down. I had a GTC ext sell order for LVS in from Friday and I had kinda forgotten it. It filled in premarket at an annoyingly lowish price. Sold some April $48 puts. Scalped a few LVS shares. That was about it. Overall up about 1 1/4% of portfolio value for the day, 3 3/4% for month, 7.5% YTD. Pretty happy overall and I expect this creeping up to continue throughout the week.

sold my 2 41strike USO calls that were nicely green last week for a loss now this week. Buy 1.12 - Sell .63. Was just a spec play, and I think oil might just go up higher soon, but i think i can get them at .50 in a few days.
USO is a flippin scam anyway, look at the performance from 09. It is worth less now then 09 when OIL was only like 50 bucks.. ALL the OIL etfs are scammy with that kind of tracking BS
My silver calls are up Nicely, going to sell perhaps tomorrow if we get a big red topping tail candle to 34-35.. I think its a psych barrier and may pullback, but the Demand for this is just insane.
SLW reports friday so prob will buy in tomorrow for a scalp
Also thinking about buying SIRI stock and then selling calls on it as it gets to 2 bux.
Ideas they are a flowing. Mojo back and not 100% tapped out ! woohoo
AND I GOT A JOB TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Long day - had to get some work in before I go on vacation later this week (heading out of town Wednesday until the weekend), FFR was level at .15% yet again - still not wanting to show us whether the middle east unrest is real or not  My FAZ was red while MNKD was green. Added another real life trade by buying some SPY $133 weekly puts / $.94. Probably not the best day to start them up since I couldn't watch all that much - but I know I was up 30% at one point before heading to meetings.. came back to see myself back at even. I had to inquire with TDA whether I could reuse those funds if I day traded (I heard back and found out it takes day for the funds to settle). monopoly world - took another leg down, forced to make some moves tomorrow no matter what  , no moves account down -5.4% on the day Worst of all, the market is now beating me by 1.6% since inception.  I remain 100% short and quite bearish despite needing to sell some losing positions tomorrow |
