I can see why you thought to short the YM, as VIX futures and options are being bought up by some of the big players, but as always, timing is of the utmost importance when you are trading with limited capital (the big players do not have to worry about a few hundred points move in the YM). There is a big difference between daytrading and swing/position trading, and as such, in a journal (to do it right) it should be clearly stated what type of trading is being done, the duration, risk, potential profit and reason for trade. Anyway, it appears that this is turning into a circus, as we have lots of monkeys here now, so I am going to leave and not waste my valuable time here any more. Making money trading is easy, providing you know what you are doing and how to do it correctly. If you do not know both, then you really should not be throwing away money, as it really is a fools game, but only if you are a "fool"! Till we meet again some day
#1...it's lonely at the top, Surf...truly an elite club -- Dwarfing the competition And skewing the curve, o' yea~ like a Boss. Right below it is 'Fund loses 600mil (15%)'...usually after pride and gluttony comes a downfall -- that's the Only direction to go after that. Think about the whole matrix, and Free...your Mind, it never rains, but it Pours, -- Coming at ya like a dove with Power from above. The DOW set a 9-day straight record streak today, not seen since 1987.
Make no mistake, the market is loving Mr. President! With that said, i like the "dove" quote. Did you write that ??
