full moon, is it not? good trading.

HL revisiting those July/August 2014 highs.   Money Mouth  good trading and happy holidays all.

I'm looking at last year's calendar and what was happening this time of the year and then another 2 months forward. time for a repeat? recalling that history never repeats itself, but often rhymes.  Money Mouth

only newbies to this site would say such a thing about Matt and Steve. I've been on this website for nearly 5 years +/-, and this is easily the first time anyone has said such a nasty thing. You are clearly wrong. It would be my guess you are on the wrong side of the market. I strongly suggest you review what you did wrong vs. what was said in last nite's update from BPT. Personally, I only pay for investment advice when i get something in return. BPT in concert with this blog, has provided enough ideas in 2014 alone to pay for a lifetime subscription to BPT. My trading style may be different than many of the folks here (and is only part-time), but, it is PROFITABLE. good trading Haz.

go baby go!

really appreciate the bullish perspective. gives support to my decision to add some short dec puts for several miners yesterday. so lets keep their rally going into year end! Money Mouth

excellent call on reverse h&s. currently 4x overweight (highly unusual for me), after doubling up wednesday (sold dec '18 puts) however, loosing 1/2 tonight with expiration (getting called away). if i had been really smart i would have gone long the stock! good trading.

~41% short interest on existing float. earnings after the close on 10/30. with ~150 p/e. and 2.64 PEG ratio, i'll side with the shorts. 

uh oh!!

SPX Opening 15 bar

there goes the 'baby' out with the bathwater.   Foot in Mouth. just went from an ugly day to an uglier day. looking across the pond, markets down 3 - 4 percent on close and we not yet quite down 3%, but wait  a few more minutes. note 10% correction on spx is ~1817. updating with vix breaking above 30. (lst time was 12/8/2011)

further news reports say 'only' 132 people are being contacted, besides, she didn't show any symptoms until the next day (yesterday). what me worry? nope, panic in the streets.... getting there. wonder what the next shoe to drop is? as in how many more people are symptomatic in the next few days from the 'original' case in Dallas. fasten those seatbelts tighter.... this is gonna be a very interesting expiration on friday.safe trading....

is that it?

RUT took back more than 50% of 15m down candle.

looked like a panic attack (aka puking session) in the first 15 minutes. long bond spiked 5points and 10yr went under 2%. with the spx down ~32. most of europe off ~3% as i write. wonder if the lows of the day are in? with a possible higher low later today? we shall see. good trading....

with vix @ 27+ and climbing, markets will move very quickly. and that's being kind.

watch out with this one

looks like 51.4% of the float is short (~15 days to cover), someone thinks they know something. good trading

courtesy of FBN technical research: Since 1950, the 6 months following Mid-term elections have been positive 100% of the time with average gains of +15%.  wonder if i can take this to the bank? guess i'll have to await the go ahead from BPT (as usual) Money Mouth

interesting short %
