Looking at MDBX, its clear to me that this type of action is the true test of a short seller. If he is still in business after that he won't ever go broke I really think that as a rule one should always cover a stock that goes against you by 100%, specially if that happened in 1 week or less...

HLF takes off after I sell Tiny chance HLF might turn into MDBX or VW "super squeeze" but people might run with that idea in their heads

Sold HLF, market too weak. mini gain

If HLF goes down Icahn will buy more and pull the borrows, other institutions might do that as well(Icahn can get 25% just himself). This must create some kind of floor in the stock since it will force shorts to cover. I bought a small speculative long for a swing trade. Its risky, i'm betting...

A mix of stocks, bonds, REITs, gold and cash. Should return about 6-9% a year with similar volatility(7-8%) and a max drawdown of 15% Me and Cutten wrote a lot about that in my journal Global Macro Trading for a Living

I'm on the einhorn camp that this stock is too hard to invest both long and short. I rather trade it opportunistically every once and a while. This morning sell-off was predictable but I didn't pull the trigger. Either Icahn is selling or the market is realizing that it is fishy to believe him...

lol at Icahn. This is the guy who never wants to disclose anything, refuses to answer questions constantly, is completely paranoid about getting front run now he wants the world to believe that he is really interested in "a going private" transaction with HLF. If that was really the case he...

For these prices it might be better to buy 3 $40 boards instead of 1 high end even if they break every couple years, then replace when they do

AAPL long working well so far. I will take my trading position off either after it breaks $500 or a bit bellow there. Will keep investing position for long-term

You can plug tons of additional monitors through the USB port. There are plenty of VGA/HDMI/DVI to USB converters on ebay (I use one from display link paid something like $45). I have a 'cheapo' MB yet (according to that guy definition but it is a good board with SATA 3 and USB 3) with this...

http://factsaboutherbalife.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Herbalife_Questions.pdf Bet HLF wont answer these and claim its because they don't want to be distracted from their business operations

HLF getting hammered with hardly a bounce. Bet Pershing leaked their response report

Can someone explain this for those that are not option traders?

I might hedge out some market risk by buying vol here. Its cheap, complacency is in the air

What is the best way to bet that volatility will rise in most stocks? VIX futures (or options), ES/SPY puts or something else?
