Recap

What a crazy day yesterday.  In a way a lot of fun, but it will make it hard to stay in swing positions if they start to whip it back and forth.  For me, I am taking the signal and playing the trend towards a Thursday low (Thursday before OPEX week, generally is a short term bottom).

The signals and trades are:

AAPL short and a 104 Jan/103 Jan week 2 put spread is on.  Both legs are profitable and the signal is still short

VXX call Spread 19/20.50.  Closing it today.  Profitable.  Signal is now on sell, but will likely flip back long today.

I posted how I legged into both on Twitter, in real time.

SPY Jan 195 put. (placed yesterday) Signal is on a sell.  Trade is underwater, although looking better this morning.

IWM signal is a sell and profitable ($110)

XLE is on a sell, and not profitable ($59.40)

Tuesday into Wednesday usually brings on Gold weakness.  Watching for a play here.

Enjoy the battle.
