Well said JB3

Wow what a day. I started as expected in the hole with FCN. FCN started out as a simple scalp but then instead of letting go I held on with the belief that it would turn again into my direction (I was shorting it). This did not happen and I had no business riding it out. I can not stress...

After having a day like today it sure is not a fun day to post the results. Both my account and chin are still holding up for the year : o )

Surf, Thanks again for doing the planning and hosting. Thanks also for taking the time to read my journal. I look forward to having dinner in NYC with you. Respectfully, Bob

Today was a tough day as I record a loss. I did have some nice trades today. I also really dropped the ball with FCN and did not see how strong it really was. Blockbuster was reported it may have to go into bankruptcy and lawyers are working with management. That sent the stock into a free...

I am glad that you and your clients are happy. Best to you Bob

Not one of my better days.

The HSI is actually for Hong Kong. close but not exactly the same thing. china does not have: an above market min wage, OSHA Juries Unions as wide spread of free health care like the US Welfare food stands unemployment insurance high income taxes in relation to the US a...

I hope it goes well for you. I have been shorting the USO puts myself in the thought that oil may not go higher soon but that its starting to hit the floor. Bob

My over the weekend trade with BCSI turned into a real nice trade. Opening lower as expected and gave enough time to close out before moving to far higher. + 4248 DISCA was a quick scalp + 63 FCN, fast scalp + 73 Otherwise a pretty slow day today. + 4384 Day / Week / Month ~ 14K...

Good start to the week. Most of today was from one trade which is the best so far this year.

Well thats what makes a market. those willing to sell and those willing to buy. Best to you Bob

Surf, Very nice of you to say so and thanks again. I look forward to the next time we get a chance to talk again. Respectfully, Bob

Hello, The events that I attended in NYC where not get high and drunk either. You may not have known that as you did not attend. I wish you the best of luck in NYC Bob

Hello BG, Sounds like you had a good time at that event. I was not invited to the event in March but I did have a good time in NYC in Feb. Bob

Thanks for reading my journal and taking the time to comment. Yes your right. It left a couple of marks. It was the first losing day in about four months which is never fun and took away a whole weeks of gains. I was able to make a respectable gain on Friday and I hope to have the rest...

Hi Bubble, Thanks for asking. I hope your doing well. I am still writting LVS puts. I am unsure at what point we will start to see Singapore get priced in. I do think that once it does and with good news coming from Macau (in terms of the visa restrictions) that LVS will pop and pop...

Sure wish there was a way to short Venezuela (and I been saying this for a year) Unless Chavez takes a total 180 from his wealth destroying ideas they are headed for a long hard road.... I expect this to be one of many robberies by the government until there is nothing left for the...

Interesting as I am also short puts and long stock covered with non front month OTM calls. Even at 10 cents the yield is great and the PE is also. I dont think the economy turns this year or next but I do see GE as a stock worth having at least some of.

Hi Nod, hmmmm, u know... I think it is !! I should go out and have a cigar and beer. : o ) Open to anyone on ET that shows up at the bar tonight I am buying the first round.. Have a great weekend and very nice trading yourself !! Bob
