I ran, in all different directions, and abandoned stuff as well as positions as i went,
- held on to all DRDs (equity, short puts, short calls),
- off-loaded all SBSW (phuck commodity inflation danger. GLD / SLV and DRD can take care of commodity inflation)
- held MSTR though closed all short puts - ouch, but also closed short covered calls of no longer necessary high strike, whew, and net net still down but better, and shorted more covered calls at lower strike, so let’s see 19th March - happy to be called if called
- Of course held on to all negative wagers (long DIA puts, SDOW, SQQQ, SPXU, TZA, short TSLA calls)
- Held on to shorted puts on GLD / SLV - happy to collect but as gold recovered, currently all still out of the money, so good as am in no hurry to collect. Must say the Au / GLD / DRD / SLV behaving okay (which raises obvious question - “why?”)
- Cannot and no need to do anything about SBER (Bank of Russia) since market closed
- Shorted calls on EWZ (the Brazil ETF) in some size, strike-35, March 19 expiration; happy to add, and okay to roll, for it is meant to be a longer term short until and after regime-change Am good. Time to sleep.
Oops, almost forgot to mention (had to return here and edit), offloaded most GBTC and BTCC, to protect most of profit earlier made during the first round. I wait to buy back. I do not believe there is a hurry. Let’s see. BTC remains fun, and the insurrection has a chance.
90% cash in brokerage a/c. Remaining 10% chips on the table are taken care of by contra wagers embedded w/i the 10% total wagers.
Waiting for Hindenberg Omen to go net short beyond notional term. |
