No trades for a while. Was debating grabbing VLNC at 1.41-1.42, but have been trigger-averse lately.

Interesting day. TDA says I basically broke even on the day but that's not the whole story. Scalped LVS and also bought 4k more LVS shares - left sell orders for those extra shares at 30 cents and 80 cents above the market at the close. They got filled at 4:01 and 4:02 as LVS popped up on the strength of WYNN reporting Q1 earnings almost double expectations. So, I'm inclined to believe I did better than breakeven today.

After a nasty down 2.7% day on Monday, the ole portfolio bounced 3.65%. led by big gains in HAL and WNR. I added to both of these on weakness yesterday. Long EXK, NGD, HAL, and WNR.  ......Oh and no trades today. |

Stopped out of one SOXL trade for small loss - ended up buying it back @ 51.78 and still holding it - hoping to sell it tomorrow AM.
INTC is up around $20.80 AH - I think it'll be sub $20 within days.
That thing has a history of being faded no matter how great their earnings were.
