I went into the longs heavily this morning and markets continued higher all day closing at the highs. For a very very brief moment in time after the market gapped higher the NDX went and filled its gap and went negative for a few ticks then it was off to the races. I saw this [...]

I didn’t get to make a post yesterday due to a debilitating migraine.
What I did yesterday:
Remained in cash from yesterday’s morning sell.
I bought more CROX Jun 10 calls.
Today:
Bought UWM, went long the indexes this morning, sold most of the index positions this afternoon and will look to buy in heavily on a down open. I’m [...]

What should have been a What Worked Today post is really a What Sucked Today post because I made some bad decisions. First I was lightly long going into yesterdays morning window -WHICH was good because after the fly [...]

Being LONG! Another great trading day today except this time big gains in the indexes and better profits on the equity trades. The markets soared today, but they really soared from the morning Rydex trading window at 10:45. The NDX was down 2% at that moment and its where I added to my NDX longs. [...]

Being long. Indexes just dumped today. I lost about 5% on my NDX position. NOT GOOD. Its fucking up my yearly performance bigtime.
CSCO didn’t help. Very similar to ATVI. Good numbers…well ATVI were amazing numbers, and the good news is getting sold.
Late day CSCO calls buy - What a flop this trade is. Certain stocks [...]

Being long. Not listening to noise. I went on a little tirade yesterday about noise and how it affects trading. From alot of what I was reading, people were expecting fire and brimstone today and for the market to drop, not breakout to new highs. I was very confident this wasn’t the case. If they [...]

JPM - JP Morgan
CMGI - I talked about it being oversold  on 7-27. Its only 7 cents from those levels or about 4-5%.
GIS - General Mills got as oversold as it did the last two weeks back in 1999. This might be one of the good ones thrown out.
Some Not So Badly Oversold Plays Too
MORN [...]

This post should be called bitch fest, but a post about CROX over at a blog I read: MadStocks reminded me of my days in CROX, DECK, and EXM. Two stocks I’ve either personally been in or should have been in (CROX).
Historical posts on DECK, and EXM.

I can pick em, but I [...]

I mentioned CROX on Sept 25th and several times before that. On Sept 25th I thought it got away from me. However, I was a fool. What I should’ve recognized that it was just the beginning based on the cup and handle. CROX was on my radar for at least a week before that too.
I [...]

Well, I really bought Crocs, the shoes. My wife and I both. However, I have been scouting buying CROX the stock because of its cup and handle formation. In fact that was the reason for buying the Crocs shoes in the first place, was to check out how they are selling in the stores and [...]

As I said in this post that CROX was a solid short. CROX is down another 4.5% today. 18%+ off those two days.

I was going to mention that CROX looked like the guarantee short of the day, but it had already dropped 5% to 8% really fast. So I didn’t. I’ve stepped away from the computer and now see the DOW up about 20 pts more, the NDX a little lower, and CROX down to 3% positive. [...]
