    Between 3:30-4 today

    I was just gonna buy 100s like I usually do when it has several down days in a week. It must have just started trading options recently so I'll take the assignment if it gets put to me. Real small part of the portfolio. The swings on the ultra shares are pretty wide so no worry here.

    Gotta love ZERO RISK in the SP500 = $$$

    "You'd think that a $13B company would have a computer system that can keep up, or even have one that's over-engineered to handle double or triple the maximum volume they expect." This is what happens when you have to call tech support and get put on hold by some guy in India.
