Afterhours all three of these companies reported earnings and it looks are going to cause a nice drop tomorrow morning. This is good for me since I added to my shorts. I wish I didn’t get rid of the intraday QID position today.
I forgot to mention that I dumped PWAV taking about a 1% gain [...]

The money I threw into the index longs yesterday was removed this morning for a decent gain. When the 3:55 started rolling around, I went back in with the cash I took off the table from the morning trade. I’m back into the NDX and RUT heavily. I’m not expecting fireworks tomorrow, but next week [...]

NDX crossed 1900 and now is testing 1900 as support from above. If support holds the NDX and the market in general can run today.
The QQQQ calls were up as much as 13%. They should be up much more if the market can get some traction.

I noticed ONNN is popping today.

On a weekly chart, the NDX has done zippo from November 2006 till [...]

My "target" was reached for the day. Essentially 2% in the QID was my mental target stop today, so I sold the QID and the Q puts for nice gains. We could go down lower and if we do I’m still short in my 2x beta funds.

Spec buys: BPA, ONT, GTW, and TGB. As well as the YHOO Feb 30 calls which are currently down a little bit. Small call [...]
