My last trade post - profit for tonight, the -53 is my 300 VXX shares, which is my only open position now - time for beddy byes J_S
VIX is up 8.03 - was up to just below 9.00 - lets see where VXX opens. Could have made big money if I held NQ shorts, but as say here..if my aunt had balls she would be my uncle..lol Take the trades and move on - and never complain when you make some money! J_S
Ok, my last post showing trades, to keep PT happy - this IB mobile app is one load of shite - they could learn a lot by looking at some of the SB apps. Closed my 300 VXX for $924 profit - time for gardening J_S
Would not be surprised to see test of low on ES, and maybe slight dip below - buying into close should also be watched today - just in case! Heard a lot of margin calls in london this morning J_S
Made one fuk up last night due to using mobile - forgot I had sell limit in for my ES put spread, and as I closed legs individually my sell limit was not cancelled - so currently holding one short 2070 + one long 2055 put - not too worried...YET..as expiry Jul01 Always double check mobile orders before closing app..current spread on both is bout 10 points J_S
It's funny, back in 2007 I was also outside in the garden when the shit hit the fan - but was on the other end of the stick! I know what way the poor bastards with margin calls are feeling today, but as the saying goes... "no one to blame only yourself" Overtrading can, and will, ruin you if you are stupid and thick enough to do it! A real fool never learns from his mistakes. J_S
Just done a NQ trade on PC with booktrader - think I'll go back outside and use mobile - it's like a fiddler's elbow J_S
That mobile phone screenshot is very big!! Anyways, just to prove I do not lie, as I have no reason to - last one PT, promise Seen as my weekly target is $500, I think I will stop and not push my luck, even though there is no such thing Back in 2007 I was shitting bricks, and when greedy and trying to make 10K sterling, I lost about 17K sterling - now I tried to make $500 and made bout $3.5K - easy see which way is the best - what a fukin dim wit I was, but, that is life Will leave PC on and come back in if they decide to drop it down to test the low, which is very likely, and then a rally into the close - seen it before, many times, so it might happen again, or might not? Hooray for brexit Back to gardening for now! J_S see if you can spot the fuk up
