Busy busy day. I still have my June SQNM calls which have done well, along with the shares. So as a hedge, I sold an equal number of May calls just to scoop up some premium in case the price collapses here. Most of the shares are still uncovered. I picked up some Sep puts on a few bios (not SQNM) that have not lived up to their performance requirements. (NOT JAZZ, Fredo lol) There have been a few that got rejected that didn't have total price collapses... so I am playing some longer term puts ATM in the hopes of scooping up some bio-carnage. I sold my remaining shares of Pfizer. Hope everyone made some money today and will do so tomorrow. Members, please post your results along with your RDA of smileys!

I found a new toy to play with. SWSH But being a scaredy cat I only played 200 shares. I managed to bumble my way thru buying and selling 100 at a time and ended up with a giant 100 bucks. But the thing is it is a brand new stock. No history and the PE is like 5 bazillion. Can't tell if I should hold any so I am not for now.

Basically a nothing day in terms of portfolio value. Bought back some short Friday LVS $44 puts for a nice gain. Bought a few FNSR shares and a few AMSC shares.

I have not looked at FNSR today but if the train has left the station then the current buyers better sell quick. You imply that it will not go any higher.

Excellent day -- completely different experience compared with yesterday's horror.
CSCO short 18 puts up 75% FNSR up ~9% SOXL up ~5%
short CENX position down ~0.5%..
I recovered most of unrealized loss from yesterday.. keeping my fingers crossed.

Yesterday - sold remaining S shares for a small loss, still holding august calls. Sold a day early - oh well.
Today - bought LVS June calls, ENTR, and MNEAF for a silver play. Maybe silver hits 40 this week, it's not far away now. Looking good so far.
