  2. Just put in 7 as a demo for class, GE only +14 cents.... 10 minutes later would have been about 70 cents, LOL.

  3. Wow, got burned on CAT. I missed taking it out this week. Oh well, made some back on GE.

  4. "CAT giveth, and CAT taketh away" - I finally stopped dealing with the ups and downs of the stupid thing a few months ago, LOL.

  7. Yep, NYSE is where the OPG order has to go. Some choose to cover the trade on ARCA to get the extra few mils, I don't at this time.

    Quite a selloff today. Let's see what "they" come up with next to fix the financials. Banks down 5-10% today.

    Back to it tomorrow.

  8. Yeah, so long for the free market concept, lol. It was a nice cheerleaders show again we had in the last week (Paulson, Bush). I almost peed my pants when Paulson said "the financial system is sound" on sunday.... "but expect more setbacks". Meaning, things are really bad but please buy, hold and pray.

    In gold we trust.

  10. 5 long, 1 short, +811, 4400 shares

    Haven't posted since getting back from vacation.

    In case anyone wondered where the hell I went (which would be very presumptuous of me), I've been putting more work into a couple of my other strategies and haven't done opens every day (and have been doing them with reduced size when I do).
