Earlie, I have been killed recently by not taking profits.
However, I think we will finally see 3 days down in a row.

The bid/ask ratio kills you trading in and out, different from being short.

Since 3/4 my funds are in an IRA, I sit tool long too often.

I take that back. I buy too soon too often.
On options one must wait for absurdities.
I guess RIMM at 66 was simply not absurd enough.

Of course I thought RIMM at 66 and 73 were absurd but it went from there to 77.

Still holding 40 RIMM puts (strike 60's) from 66 and 73.

Now, 2 more days down please.
I deserve them.

Thanks

M
