nothing like a 40 point bear cover.

cover $1475.06. Took a lot of heat on this made up for it on XLF which I rode all the way down.

Good trade. You are braver than me. How would you like to be working the phones over there? Hey, is my money safe? blah, blah, blah!!:) We have a great product for you called ABX, we can get you in real cheap. If the market would just puke it up already, but then how could they front...

good riddance. Their incompetence there could only be matched by a govt agency like FEMA. I just got a mailer for a 40 year mortgage, I am waiting for an 80 year mortgage. I want my grandchildren to pay it off, fu**in losers!!:mad:

Amen.

The greed of all these companies is mind boggling. Nothing like issuing a bunch of sub prime paper at the top of a multi year real estate cycle. Don't worry Griff or Warren Jr as I like to call him is ready to give you $.05 on the dollar, which is probably too generous. When your grandma is...

Oh my Goog is getting a whooping!!

Looks good on a weekly chart, bottom at $99.00. Maybe hedge at $95.00 strike.

Nice reversal, still early took my loss and will move on. Nice stop run though!!:)

DOH!! What a beating these things are taken.

60 min chart.

Not that my trades would matter but it seems like every time I call out a stop, it it gets hit. We are due a beta rally in general. :) Pull up a 60 minute chart, worth a shot on a reversal.

long here $650.00. :)

VIX coming down at the moment.

This is typical of what is going on, better to be on the sidelines then get hit with a sledge hammer. http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/e-trades-shares-cut-nearly-half/story.aspx?guid=%7B2FE9802B%2DA85A%2D4674%2DA43C%2DC3F1FE6980AC%7D&siteid=yhoof

Not buying this rally, currencies are wild with the yen down big again. Make sure you adjust your position size for the greater volatility. Good trading. :)

I meant to post this in another thread; very pertinent to the latest price action, bottom line when volatility spikes reduce position size. http://traderfeed.blogspot.com/2007/11/stock-market-volatility-and-position.html

I went long a little lower but made it back already, this thing got annihilated;I think somewhat unfairly, been buying it all the way down and expected to take some heat. We'll see what happens next week.

I am trying to get the OP to understand that the risk profile is completely different. Selling a naked call is much riskier than buying a put. Your broker will let you buy a call with like $500 in your account, to sell in your average retail account you have to meet whatever their margin...
