  1. got out of SLV calls for loss.
    bought 32.04 to 33 this am.

    maybe bottom at 32 for this week, maybe tag 30... pretty good moves in this thing.

  3. nice trading in SLV recently.

    bought 33 ITM calls that were delivered and sold at 37 last week.
    might be a short setting up here to 30 and below. either that or 42... waiting at the moment.

    tried to fade SPY through puts this morning, missed entry by .02. unfortunate.

    faded APC through puts at 80 strike price though, and just got out of them for .60/contract. think still more downside, but looking to reenter. (note: move in equity was 80.60 to 79.30)

  8. i havent been swing trading as much lately, but bought some APC calls today that I'm looking at holding until Opex (two weeks). believe 84-85 could happen if upswing takes off from here.
