    Grinding it out, day after day

    austin p the problem with the mkt is the short side is very very hard as the dips have been very shallow. thus few people jumped on thursday price break. most technicians saw it as a breakout day and were probably caught long. and most of us have been trained to never short in the hole as it...

    Shorting Apple with a target of $250

    ests $4.10. based on the once in lifetime run i'd say apple needs $5-$5.50 min. puts are outrageously juiced and i think one needs a straight short to make any money on a short

    I love options i wish i had 10 of the 540's. But if you do the math you'll see that can't be the case as they traded at $12 and that would mean i put $12 k in it. I bought right near the end of day and you can figure out the strike i bought.It was for shits and giggles and i've probably lost 20k...

    What if QE2 does not come?

    its insanity to do more stimulus. as far as earnings they suck outside a few tech names. remember co's like intc and csx and jpm had there ests lowered huge in the past few months. The mkts added $2 trillion in wealth the past 7 weeks. theres no need for any stimulus

    What will be the catalyst to cause the markets to drop?

    Thats why i'm so wary to short. Everyone from stock boards to the real world is so negative and everywere i go people shorting. I think we spike to 1200-1300 by year end just because no one thinks we can.
