    The latest surf report thread was closed but my short fade from on march 20 is still active:

    https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/surf-report.306890/page-133#post-4427303

    "We have initiated a new long position in the DOW cash 20916"

    This fade is currently showing a profit of over $57,000 USD (size is $50 a point)

    Now if the MarketSurfer had just gone long instead of short YM, he would have made his 1000+ pips



    I think i will hold this one for a $100K profit.

    Looks like he had tremendous foresight in SHAK.

    Well... I wouldn't go that far. I was just giving Surf a shout-out. His initial short call on SHAK was right where its at now if I recall correctly.
    And the ONVO long call, which I actually follow that company now.... was not all that good. Its down over 30%. And 30% is 30% even on a penny stock.
    Just keepin' it true Mr TrueType. ;)

    Where is the post that shows the exact short entry for SHAK?
    There was none made this year that i am aware of, only some vague posts that SHAK is a good short play.
    SHAK has been stuck in a trading range between 40 and 30 for the last 18 months anyway.
