- closed 5400 puts (micro profit) and opened 6000 calls, :-)

- selling 6300 puts that I bought y'day morning (50% done) - was buying index short term (5785) , closed 5840+ - bought 5400 puts and prepared to buy OTM puts

Closed DAX 6135 but I'm prepared to buy again. I just got positively surprised to find out what a nice profit I made while being long DAX from y'day night ... (have to work sometimes, :-)) Well, strangless is a good idea but according to my experience: - move has to be massive, move to...

Well, got back 10points on that move, but it looks like a turn now. US is breaking 11720-40 resistance.

I guess I do not have nerves for that jumps, :-), ... I give up for a while, lost 15points.

I wait for US open, it would be like driving against the wall. Also, I had good 2 days, I do not want to spoil my weekend, :-).

Whole bloody day I was long DAX from 5780, I even survived move below a bit, I closed 5891. Still, I'm somehow reluctant to go long ...

I just shorted index at 5900 and closed given quick gains.

This kind of moves (6050+ to 5800- then back) stop out many swing traders ... I'm not saying that it was not deterministic but if you do not move a$$ and adjust position it is nightmare.

I was feeling the pain with 6000 puts as I turned in bed dax went from 6017 to 6060+.

I guess, you were stopped out. I cannot say that I thrive either ... given that I've got no view. - lets take ftse it broke 5450, ESTOXX broke 2350, dax is below 6100, DJ below 11700, S&P below 1230 I do not know we still may go up a bit. Ok, I did 6000 puts as a protection of my longs ...

I jumped in too early in the morning at 5930, covered at 5922. At the same time closed 5900 puts from y'day at 5915 a bit too early as well, should have waited for sub 5900. No view for direction, DAX looks like tripple bottom, EU problems partially resolved for time being, but downgrades...

I'm telling myself, 6200 calls should have waited, nevermind, one can still jump on the train.

Well, I was busy with some stop loss of NG, it somehow opened at 500 instead of 642. It makes hell of the difference if you are leveraged. It was sorted on the phone. Otherwise, dax is doing nice waves on which I did not participate. Sold some 6200 calls that I was holding ( that was good...

I bought NOV bear spread 5300/4900 just before US close but it was already y'day. I believe that market is again turning into bull but it may take a bit, :-).

selling 6200 calls into the weekend

If I didn't have DAX call it would have been a pain. Otherwise, we reached resistance points and tomorrow is expiry date. I wonder what it brings.

shorted dow 11383, close 11343, RR 1:2, didn't expect to move 130 points, should have split close Given above I followed Asul.

btw. I would not mind 5600 in 2 days

Tell me about it. It was a good day today but it was mainly about reduction of leverage rather than closing winning trades. I sold my longs at various levels, 5210 - 5331, average 5290 Also sold Sep/Oct 5200 puts, still hold some 5000 and 5200 puts, just in case something happens.
