    Favorite character.

    A direct descendant of William Wallace lived in my building in Chicago. He was a CME local for PRU, IIRC.

    Dest is clearly fluent in markets. I can manage a few dialects (niches) pretty well but will still resort to using hands and feet in most cases.

    The trade at the top of the pic was a 3-lot ATM fly that I bought as a delta-generator (SPX 2930/60/90). Expires this Friday. I'll be flat D here at the open tomorrow at 2933 SPX.

    Net liq at exactly $60K in the IRA. SPX dpos is -200. Hedge flies up $1,200, thankfully.

    That's a lot of conviction for the fade here. Are you going to add deltas today or try stay this short?

    I am short 140D (three ES) here. I want to be clear that it's not 200-lot for those that don't trade it.

    There is a lot of stuff coming off tomorrow. There is a ton of gamma/ddecay here. I only need a close under 2950 cash to hit 63K tomorrow. I bot SPY hedge (ITM calls).

    Just hit opening cash (net liq) at $60,400.
