    You're into my beloved ISRG now???!!!!!

    hmmmm.

    I'll have to look.
    You know I love this stock.
    It's the TWILIO of robotic surgery.... before there even was a TWILIO.

    Hey for real.... you have made some great calls.
    100%.

  2. Thank you VZ.

    Here is an off the wall one: Trump did the right things by check mating Mitch and the GOP into a bigger stim check for the American people. The market's initial reaction to his rejecting the "Covid Relief" bill is off, and ES will be $3750 or higher before the early close on Thursday.

    Whether you hate him or love, Trump did us a huge favor if he follows through on his rejection and the Dems don't screw the pooch by failing to take the big checks to the floor for a vote. If they pass the big checks, don't day trade. Just buy as big a line of ES as you can carry, and add contracts as the profits produce additional margin. ES $5K on the way.

    An extra $2K in everybody's pocket = ES $5K?

    Seems a bit much considering the actual long term damage that was done this year.

    I think people are underestimating the potential for a black swan from post Xmas into Q1.

    Just IMHO of course.

    Great call on the ES drop the other night by the way.

  4. The USA is in a 244 year-old bull market.

    We are a long way from the Hill of Megiddo.

  8. Had the order in at $4 before I saw your post but no fill. It is what it is. When I trade these things I assume I just took the full loss the second I enter and if I get out with a profit, its like a happy ending ;)

  10. No one sits better than me ;)

    I bought QS $100's for less than a $100 and held then for $3000 ... these little plays either pay me or I consider them contributions to the dealers kid's college fund. Keeps the dealers around for the next a score.

    Meanwhile, SPX doing the slow grind. Oh she sure knows how to tease.
