I am happy about the minimal DD during the recent market activity. I gave back about half my gains on my gold trade, but am still long. Exposure is good.

Not wanting to be too aggressive here. It could turn out to be a buy the rumor, sell the news on the meeting of Euro leaders Thursday. I am down 13%, ($160) on ORLY, after a company earnings warning. These up and down days are the zone I like to work in, as I am getting plenty of signals.

Unrealized losses increased enough today to trigger a 200 share SDS position. I added 100 shares to my UGL, ProShares Ultra Gold. Now down $53, -0.23%. I am still kicking myself for not selling when I had a $400 profit.

I ended the quarter on a high note. I made the mistake of having the opinion that Facebook would boost the market and took more risk than I should have in May. I hope that with my 100K bankroll, I can be happy with under 50% exposure most the time. I see my strategy as toying with the market by taking many different small positions, while keeping a large cash position in reserve. I think one's edge is that that market has no idea of your bankroll, but it is your responsibility to use it wisely.

Hi Rol,
On Monday 6/25/2012, you were contemplaiting an SPY position.
I got the urge to place a 1000 share position in SPY this morning, but it didn’t feel right. The usual script is to tank Monday then revert later in the week. It would be better to wait another day or two for the selling to subside.
I was wondering if you made the entry?
Also, I have lost track of the basis of your gains. As I recall you started this thread with about $38K, your last statement shows $10K profit. Does this mean you added $52K to your account since January 2012?
