Still not feeling well so spent a lot of the day away from the markets. The action seemed mostly sleepy considering the big break. My feeling was theres really no new money entering the market here so it's just lots and lots of buying and selling between bots with the same money. No trades. Hope everyone made some money today and will do so tomorrow. Members, please post your results along with your RDA of new and improved smileys!  |

Well - by the standards of this glacial week I had a stellar day - up almost 1% for the day and 2% YTD. Had trouble staying awake. Almost sold 2k of LVS before the open - only got 105 shares off and then raised my sell price for the rest. Managed eventually to get the rest filled and also did another scalp for 2k shares. Got a little spooked by MPEL and sold half my shares at around the low for the day but at a very nice profit. Decided to lower my downside and my upside on my May $10 calls by selling May $11 calls - leaving with a call spread.

two one-way trades -
added 20K to short MU position at 11.8 , b/e 11.6 with 50K short shares. unrealized loss of 10K
this is a tricky one.. sold May 190 AMXN calls for 5.6x, which are now trading at 10.. potential loss of ~80%... only good news is that these are short options, so I might be able to rollover these at sometime..

I made $25.02  My employer reports earnings in the AM, so I'm preemptively reminding myself that I knew I should have sold what little I had today..  |
