 A big fat I don't think many were too surprised though Poll was weighted 9 bears to 4 bulls - I think everyone felt it.  I don't think it's the buyable dip yet for this move. But each stock is moving independently with some reference generally to the indices so play it how you see it as always.  SQNM is a buy here as a start.  Nibble nibble ELON No other trades, still holding SQNM shares, calls, and short calls, BAC Aug calls, etc.  Hope everyone made some money today and will do so tomorrow. Members, please post your results along with your RDA of smileys!

Finished the day better than I started - down only 1% of portfolio value. Most of my stocks were down. Scalped LVS a few times. Wrote a few Friday $43 puts.

no moves in real life although considered selling some more of my IRA - figured it was a bad day to do it with the market pretty red though. if there is anymore strength to come, i may go to about 30-40% invested from my current 60% invested level.. as for trading, still waiting on the FAZ trade from $45
monopoly world, a few moves on a pretty strong day in here - have seen 5 or 6 green days in a row. that hasn't happened for me since turning to the bear side, so at least 6 months i would say
bought to cover 50% of the remaining LNG position @ $7.60 & $7.55 for +9.3% on that batch; between yesterday and today, have cut 60% of the 6x short position.. still holding remaining 2.5x short position avg $8.36 / unrealized +10.4%
added to my IRE long @ $1.92 / avg $2.00 unrealized +6.8% on 2x long position (my only one)
after yesterday and today, i am 4% long, 94% short, 2% cash

Got killed again today. Down about 10% to 12% in the last 2 days. Bleeding to death very quickly. Oh well, may as well just ride it down to hell. Screw it. If I sell it will just turn around and haul ass up without me.

Silly futures look like this was a one day scare again. I bought a tiny bit of SSNS.

No trades today..I should have close portion of the short CENX position but I didn't.
Short CENX position was up for decent unrealized profit. I will try to close some position tomorrow around 10 am EST.
