out with the fed

I bought at 1.50 and sold 1.45.  The option is now sitting at 1.20.  Everyone saw this a mile away.  My thesis was for a long qqqq holiday run, but I had to protect myself….. Now… 1.13.   Fed news seems to lasts 24 hours.  Mid-day the next day……

Todays final conclusion

Posted on August 6, 2007. Filed under: Market, Markets, Money, Stocks, investment, options, trade, trading |

 
I have to put into place the “no look” policy.  Why?  Well, one of the rules is these trades need to be boring.  If I’m watching, I’

Based on my picks, the stocks [...]
