Hello nesyo03, Thanks for saying so and taking the time to post. this month sure has been pretty crazy as far as trying to keep my head above water. Best of trading to you Robert

If I am correct I believe it was the day Geez and I were on the opposite side of the large AIG move up. (I didn't know it at the time) Geez was long and I was short and Mr. Geez was right and I was wrong. The only thing that I wish geez would have done differently is to have been able to...

PRX became a frustrating trade for most of the day I was glad that I exited as much as I did in afterhours trading last night. I also even had some bids hit that lowered the loss after I posted. When it opened higher today I correctly faded the move and that did bring my average higher but it...

I had my latest article published on seekingalpha about why I am short the 30 yr bonds. I been bearish (I am net short some synthetic calls and net short calls in other strike prices) for about a month now and I have talked about being in the trade but never gave the reasons. This was...

Pretty slow day today other than the open and the close I was able to make some lemon-aid out of some lemons from a few months ago. HURN broke out today with a big gap up. I traded HURN to the long side and MRX and PRX to the short side. PRX traded up strongly into the close and I covered...

update now + 2969 after covering some of PRX in AH

Hey Surf, Thanks for taking the time to say so. I just submitted my reasons for being short the US 30 year to seekingalpha so maybe they will run with it (they have been publishing more and more of my thoughts). let me know what your thoughts are please. I am looking forward to having...

Hi BostonKiller, LOL yeah, I really don't go long very often anymore. While I have always tended to be more of a short I actually went long a lot more often before a bad UAUA and then again after LEH In proof that you can teach an old dog new tricks I took some lessons from when I was...

I think perhaps some of what I said was not as clear as it could have been. We do not make money in the markets because our normal emotional 'fight or flight' response is followed but rather from overcoming our emotions with logical responses based on backtesting and results we experience. For...

Hi NoDoji, I would not "hijack" your thread if I was not also trying to assist you as well so I hope this is of some value. Oracle77, Firstly let me say congrats on your winning trades and I know from experience how that feels along with having a "streak" broken. With that being said I...

Hello TraderSU, Hey thanks a lot !! I hope your trading is going well and thanks for taking the time to post. Looks like I might be setting up a bank of stock finding computers in my attempt to scan all of my ideas. Respectfully Robert

Mostly traded to the long side today Market was way down and it was hard to find anything that was up today. Once exception to the down rule today was with ALGN. Not only was it fighting the tide it did so very well. It was higher than 30% up at one point near the end of the day and even...

VERY GOOD WORK !!!! Back in the green for the month and feeling pretty good about it. + 3001

Surf, Nice call and best to you with your trade. Respectfully Robert

Just one trade today during the open I traded ANF and that was my one and only trade for the day. Spent the rest of the day doing research and looking at setups. ANF + 453 + 453 Day + 12650 Week - 893 Month

Hello TraderSU, THANKS !! Not a bad week at all. Going to try to repeat it next week as well. Hopefully we can have some up days in the market to make it easier to find trades. Have a great weekend Robert

Pretty slow day today with only one trade during the open + 453

Just two trades today I also did short the Treasury 30 year Futures 118.50 Sept call option at 11/64s. I may add to this trade if the underlying moves higher tomorrow. I did not short any of the gap ups I was following at the open as non of them fully qualified for me. My first trade was...
