Was the Nasdaq the signal today that the Dow would end up here? Seems like it, especially going green during what appeared as a vicious sell off.  No trades today.  Hope everyone made some money today and will do so tomorrow. Members, please post your results along with your RDA of smileys!  |

good decent day
6K unrealized profit on 60 short vxx 25 calls, 1.2K additional profit possible
but trade of my life % wise is "bot 24 puts, sold 23 puts, sold 26 calls for 2 cents debit..cost of trade $100.. max profit 5K, max loss unlimited." -- this is up 2500% yes 25x..

Well we almost had a quad bull today - if you measure it from the lows of the day. I found a new game to play - trading in and out of VXX. Also did a fair amount of scalping LVS calls. Ended up with 25 $39 and 25 $40 calls that expire tomorrow that I effectively got for free as both were 50 lots and I sold off half of the position. Never figured I'd finish the day up 1% but I did.

My portfolio was off by an odd lot today. I made two changes in the portfolio... 1. Bought ERX at 62.57 (hope you saw my post in the SPR thread) 2. Transfered some DD Du Pont stock into my trading account. So, you may hear me commenting on DD now.  ;D |

Liking the fact I'm less in the unrealized red than I was this morning Dan, The Fastopia term for that portfolio condition is "unlost tm PH". Poorhomey gets royalties of some unknown amount from some unknown source each time that term is used. Unlost some on LVS and CLNE, nibbled on PAL (1K at 3.77), up about 3% on the PAL trade. |
