- Start date
yeah, I'd say over 75% of my gains this year have come from SPX. Sometimes I ask myself the same question. I've been specifically trading broad-based indices more since I filed my 05' taxes and decided that I need to trim some fat off of my strategy.
SPX @ 1285. I decided to go ahead and tempt the MMs with the 2 leftover b-flies that I've got on this thread.
Order in to buy back the 1235/1245.

Sure.
BTW, are you the one who told the MMs not to fill my SPX trades today?
Nope, closed part of the flies yesterday. I was actually trying to get filled on some JUL bear calls today.
