Great Morning!
Closing Prices From Yesterday
Yesterday and Today
Yesterday
TODAY
Today or Monday we would expect to see the Dow and SPX test the start of the year highs. I am bullish as they get (as POT people can attest to), but am not real happy with the overall scheme of things.
Th entire planet with the exception of the US is weak. China just made #1 economy in the world and now it is weak. The US numbers show this economy is no better than the rest of the world, it is just we calculate our numbers differently (can you say fudged?).
Yes unemployment is great. Everyone who ever dreamed of one day working at McDonald’s or Costco (not that there is anything wrong with having a job there) is now gainfully employed. It is a problem when that is the only jobs being created. The $150K a year jobs people had back in 2008-2009 are lost an have not come back.
The US economy is giving confidence to the rest of the world that things will get better, but if we even stumble a little this whole house of cards may fall. I STILL SAY this is a bubble created by the Fed.
Keep in mind that the Fed is coming under pressure by the Republicans now to be audited. This came up before in 2008 when there was a push for the Fed, Fannie an Freddie to be audited but Barney Frank assured us the housing industry was sound and there was no need to do an audit. Well, it is that time again. If it does start an begins to look like a political witch hunt, instead of a true fact finding bi-partisan mission, GET OUT FAST will be my war cry.
We are only at 18,000 with an inability to sell off hard because the FED is creating this bubble to fix the last bubble (banking) to fix the previous bubble (housing) to fix the previous bubble, etc. The only problem is the bubbles are now so big that we may not be able to get out the $1 trillion dollar bills and patch up the hole.
BUT FOR NOW
But the bubble will keep expanding until you hear a POP sound. There is no point in trying to fade it (get short). One goes for the free ride while hedged. Then when it does pop you blow out of all but the hedges and go for a fun ride down. That will be where the real money is!
POT is held each Wednesday night at 7:00pm eastern.
We kicked some butt yesterday. We added a new risk reversal sale (long $10 call spread and short $5 near ATM put spread) for a very small debit. We cleaned up some positions expiring today and took some profits in the RSX. Fun times!
Positive Time Decay (the good kind) and positive deltas.
What is there not to love!

DISCLAIMER (Seriously!)
Trading is almost as much fun as black jack in Vegas, but without all the annoying distractions of free drinks, Broadway shows, gorgeous people with low morals, and free buffets. It also has about the same odds of success, so when you lose all your money you wont have to walk past a smiling pit boss. Even Bruce Wayne lost everything with options in The Dark Knight Rises, and Superman keeps his day job at the Daily Planet newspaper.
We have the utmost respect for our attorneys who tell us any attempt to trade is throwing money out the window, and investing is risky business (still a great movie). Past performance doesn’t mean a thing. The future is even scarier. Random Walk and everyone associated with it promises absolutely nothing. We guarantee nothing. We wont ever do anything right unless it is an accident.
Random Walk only provides education (and a great cup of Starbucks if you visit our office). If you want advice please consult an attorney, licensed broker, Joe Kearnan, tax consultant, investment adviser, etc. Random Walk, LLC is full of morons, dolts, has-been(s), chromosome damaged individuals, thieves, losers, and carnival barkers. Any attempt to find a semblance of intelligence or integrity in Random Walk would be a waste of time. We will sell products, but advise against buying them. We Do Not Give Advice.
When reading this you acknowledge that you agree to hold harmless Random Walk, LLC, its employees, independent contractors, authors, managers, owner(s), spouses, children, cousins, friends, bail bondsmen, and favorite bartender. In fact, you agree to grow up, accept some responsibility for your own actions, and stop believing the media that sells you on how nothing is your fault. You further agree in the antiquated and lost values that America is the land of opportunity and not the land of handouts. You agree any loss in the markets is a result of your own actions as we told you NOT to trade without consulting someone other than us.
All paper trades are SOLELY for example and to illustrate how certain strategies could perform without the benefit of hindsight and back-testing. You agree NOT to trade based on anything we say, do, write, advertise, etc. If we were smart we would be teaching high-school math and making the really big bucks. You agree to abide by the laws of your country and that it is legal to accept this transmission.
Every attempt has been made to ensure accuracy, but we are clueless. As a result it would be foolish and impossible to assure the accuracy of any numbers and/or come close to writing a sentence that is grammatically correct. You agree not to get on our case emotionally, physically, spiritually (no Voodoo dolls please) or legally when we screw up. We are doing our best to keep up with evolution, but it is a fast race and we are falling behind. If any of this stuff is too hard to accept please let us know and we will remove you from our mailing list and short term memory.
Random Walk deeply cares about each and every student. We try to keep the selling of products to a minimum. We believe our students are a result of attraction rather than promotion. This does NOT mean that the more attractive you are, the more we promote ourselves (in general).
Our products are written ONLY by floor traders, fund managers and retired floor traders. But that really doesn’t mean much. They are expensive and unique. That does NOT mean they (materials) come on a tablet of concrete from Mt. Sinai. . If you are still reading this, you will likely be the first to have gotten this far. No guarantee for accuracy is made. Nothing we do is audited and we make no promise of accuracy.
Because of the proprietary nature of our materials and the ease of electronic copying, all sales are final. There are far too many people who have no problem stealing our materials and putting them on torrents or copying them. These are the same low-life, selfish, whining, half-wit hypocrites that would cry like a newborn with a wet diaper if someone stole their car radio. They have to pay for our materials before stealing them, and live with their karma (and our legal team). Yes, we have caught a few and now have one person working on detective work solely.
Sales are far from our largest concern. If you are a whiner, complainer, or generally unhappy with life please go to someone else in this industry who values money over happiness. We can point you in the direction of other firms that only care about the bottom and top line. Jerry Springer can also point you in the right direction. Besides whiners are a total distraction from the awesome group of students we are fortunate to have. We are truly blessed and thank them (provided that is fine with our lawyers). “Thank yous” are only handed out in countries where legal and void where prohibited. If your country does not allow “thank yous” please refrain from accepting it. This disclaimer is copyright material and not a joke.
