    My guess on ANTM is that you'll be alright tomorrow but that it will blow through your terminal BE and then retrace.

    ANTM didn't make my screen for some reason, not sure why. Maybe has to do with data issues.

    NOC. Brings back memories. I shorted NOC and bought GD when the F22 contract was up for grabs. I was in my early 20s. I'd researched the thing for weeks and arrived that GD would win the contract. I bought vol in GD and shorted NOC.

    GD was awarded the contract exactly 28 years ago (today!). My straddle was pinned to the strike (or near enough) and NOC dropped only slightly.

    Yikes, I was hoping to get out after a +/-$5 gap before 9.45. Intraday volatility has picked up quite a bit the last week, definitely do not want to hold on to this thing for to long!

    We are currently just above break even on EBAY (stock @ 38.88) . Confrence call starting in 20 min. Can management pump this thing up? This could be a big winner!!

    closed EBAY for 1.83 :(. But closed ANTM for a big win of 7.15 (big winner).

    I closed GD for 8. With NOC, I didn't get filled while it was at 288 (I offered 7 when the spread was worth less than 5). Finally got filled for 10 on its way down. Up overall today, but could've been so much better.

    Screen for today: 'SCCO', 'MO', 'ESS', 'AEP', 'IP', 'RTN', 'WM', 'XRX', 'UPS', 'NEM', 'HES'

    Some of these are very illiquid or too cheap to be worthwhile, but I'll probably be trading a few of these around 3:30.
