Opening Orders - 2008

Got lucky being hyper conservative and pulled AIG based on other insurance earnings news. Didn't see any AIG news preopen; looks like it was one of those inevitable "land mines" to hose OPGers.

4 long, all on test positions, 3 wins and a loss, +101, 1300 shares

Hope no one got hit too badly on AIG. That was crap that something like that wasn't communicated broadly much earlier.

 

Missed the openings yesterday. Looks like I didn't miss much.

Today:
Canceled drugs, DD/DOW (goldman ag conference), and a few others.

2 fills, CAT and VZ short: +195

"coulda" sucked on both a little more, ha!

 

2 long, a win and a loss, +144, 4000 shares

 

6 fills / 5000 shares

4 long / 2 short / + 265.00

 

Basically flat +$80.

Don

 

no fills

 

3 fills short which total to nothing

 

Ouch, a little too generous on my envelopes this morning.

13 fills, all short: -670

 

7 fills / 5500 shares

3 long / 4 short / + 599.00

best...gs...+815.00

worst...slb...-381.00

i'll take it !!!

 

One of those days today where nothing really wanted to cooperate. Luckily I was mostly filled on small test positions.

1 long scratch on a test position, 4 short (3 losers and a win, all but one a test position), -476, 3400 shares
