Fear has reached an epic level on Wall Street. Every one is running scared. Consider selling to close the DIA December 2014 170 put today, as well as the PETM October 70 put now deep in the money. Once you close out those positions, consider buying to open the DIA...

This has been an interesting week. This week, we fell 270, and then ran up 276, and are now down 340. I’m still shocked I have hair. On October 6, I issued a buy recommendation on the DIA December 170 put. Hearing that some of you bought up to $5, I tracked that in...

This has been quite a market. One day we’re down 267. The next day we’re up 165. Then we’re all over the place. Then today we’re down more than 120 at open. It’s madness, as we near the end of QE3. Hold all positions, though with the exception of the Staples (SPLS)...

After a beautiful string of wins since December 2013, we did run into some losers. We continue to hold everything, though, with plenty of time remaining. All positions in the portfolio are long-term holds, despite pullbacks in a very volatile market. In a week’s time,...

At the end of October 2014, QE3 will come to an end… It’s already spooking the market, sending us down 267 one day, only to send us back up 200 the next. Volatility is here in a big, big way. The only way to trade the market at the moment is to be a bit patient… and...

After a great deal of solid wins since December 2013, we have run into losers in one of the most troubling months for the markets in recent memory. We may have closed out nine solid double-digit wins since August 2014, but we have losers after the markets 350-point...
