    String of losses, time to sidestep

    the put-call ratio was about 2.5 before the market started plummeting a week ago. you could have been contrarian and sold naked puts, in which case you would have gotten your a** handed to you by now. also, any negative surprises this week would probably cancel out any options related gains.

    Which is Better!!!!...the HUGE & CRUCIAL Question!!!!!

    haha, no that was much more complex. The BNB method goes something like this: If the market goes up, you should be bullish; if it goes down you should be bearish. Also, momentum is a secret that the pros do not want you to know about... bc its, uhh a good indicator.

    Futures are marked to market daily = realized gain/loss = no tax advantage. The benefit of the 60/40 election is that you can claim a loss higher than the typical $3,000/yr capital loss. Blowing up an account or two will also ensure you do not have to pay tax for some time.

    Im up a ton today. LOVE these down days. Thanks for all the liquidity longs

    Fair enough: 1. Halloween rally 2. Black Friday (thanksgiving) rally 3. xmas rally To break up the rallies, every so often Greenspan will raise the % chance of the US going into recession. This will causing a 1-3% market dip each time.
