Let me rephrase that, "maybe one day I'll even be able to understand Mo's translations of riskarb's comments."

I'd just like to thank Coach and the others in this forum for being so forthcoming on their trades, successes, failures, and analysis. I joined just a few weeks ago and already learned much more that I expected. Perhaps, one of these days, I'll even be able to understand a bit of riskarb's...

Trying to decode Riskarb's entries is education enough at the moment.

Well, frankly, I don't have enough experience yet for futures. I'm still learning.

My VIX 10 call I bought Friday just hit my sell trigger @ 18. Didn't expect that to happen so quick!

Makes me glad I bought some VIX 10 calls Friday. Just in case.

Thanks, Mo. That certainly helps.

Aardvark, it was a bear call. I got filled @ $2.00 instead of $1 as I first thought. I'm betting 1290 will hold as the next resistance. :D

Whoops, just looked again and got filled @ $2.00, not $1.00.

I just filled a 1305/1315 for $1.00. Had the oder out for about 15 minutes. :)

OK, that explains it. You had me goin' for a minute. :p

Bull Put?? Did you buy these back at the peak? I didn't see any credits at that point.

I'm still learning. Is there some source that describes how to adjust and when. What would trigger an adjustment. My rule is to roll or close the short leg if SPX gets within 10 points. I was sweating my 1225/1235 Bull Puts Tuesday and yesterday. Is a 10 point trigger reasonable...

Open a bull call 32.5/37.5 on TIE.

OK. I may be sticking my neck out, but I've just bought a 32.5/37.5 Bull Call spread. TIE @ $35.82 at the moment.

RSI has turned up!! Has the bottom bounced??

Well I jumped in for a 1225/1235 P @ 1.90. I'm in the same boat as you---just a little deeper. :D

Credit or Debit?

WOUld someone explain the term "r/r" has used by Arb?

Just got an alert that SPX just hit 1258 and continues down. Where did you think the bottom was? 1250? :eek:
