Prediction Follow Up
We didn't get the quick and fast drop like I had expected; instead we got a slow grind to close down 4% in 5 days on the indexes. Works for me. I closed a few positions (SPY DEC 100 Puts and VIX NOV 25 Calls, did very ni… -
Prediction
Looks like next Monday should be the ultimate top and end to the bear market rally. 1100 on S&P, 2200 on NASDAQ, we already hit 10k on the DJIA. The fun begins on Tuesday. As for OPEX today, it was awesome. Everyth… -
