    Congratz. Implied volatility is extremely high BTW (at least for the long dated options)....

  2. I couldn't update this during the day as I was standing in line to vote and the AAPL position was being worked on a "not held" basis. I covered today at an avg on spot of 316. My best day ever on a SN vol-position.

    I averaged in a couple times last week, let this one go this morning though for something like -15% on debit. I still think we've went up too fast recently considering the macro picture but this sentiment has proved hard to crack. We keep filling the gaps down and if yesterday couldn't change the short term trend I figure it's time to back off.

    If we sell off hard in the next week I will be :(.

    Congrats with your AAPL trade dest, that must have felt great to have on. Hope all is well with your family Doobs looking forward to the next slew of trades when they come.

    Hey Poopy... you have me on ignore so you probably won't see this, but with regards to saying you shorted from 90 and covered at 55, you also had a trade from last week where you shorted at 3346 because you couldn't wait for it to hit 3351 like you wanted. It clearly went against you by quite a bit if you were still holding it, although you did say it was a 30 day hold. What happened to that trade?
