    Trader P/L 2008

    In the voice of the Crocodile Hunter (God rest his souls): The elusive green comma has finally been captured. Isn't he gooaajuss. Except for one glitch early in the day, very pleased, despite probably being a bit over cautious throughout the day.

    Leh Bankrupt

    This is what really surprises me. GS and others were sure to get their statements out, over the last week or so, that they were still willing to do business with them. But I suppose if you were to go one layer deeper, you could say that GS said they weren't going to do business with BSC...

    I almost never hold anything overnight, but if I do, I am hedged. (Delta neutral, or paired up). I've learned the hard way that naked overnight risk is a bitch. And that bitch slaps you the hardest when you are the most confident with your overnight postion.
