Well, now the little matter of closing the puts that protected a long position over the weekend so I didn't have to buy a lot of antacids.

The muppet in me says "hold; this is going south again any minute now, wait and get a couple ticks more."

Discipline, though, says "its job is finished, close it out."

I choose option "b". Back in a little.

We had snow over here this morning , very unusual weather pattern for us
The wind gust that toppled a stage at the Indiana State Fair Saturday night, killing five and injuring dozens of fans waiting for the country band Sugarland to perform, was a fluke that no one could have anticipated, the governor and others said Sunday.

example of what we had ...

spinning tops merely represent indecision, doesn't mean much here.

I don't know, I am a muppet myself!
A spinning top doesn't mean anything all alone and without confirmation.
I see the last H1 as a bullish candle inside the wick of the previous one that might want to test the top of it
If you look at it, it could not print lower low compared to the previous one and closed higher

No sign of going lower yet...let's wait

So that's done.

BTW, one point about unintended consequences of banning short selling. An underlying "anything", say, U, and puts P and calls C on U at same strike are kept in equilibrium by the so-called "conversion arb:"
a. Long(short) U
b. Short(long) C
c. Long(short) P

Since b and c together provide a certain, fixed, close out price for the position in U regardless of U's future price, the net prices of C and P must be related to keep the position in U from having riskless, arbitrage profit. But if it is not possible to short U in the first place, that side of the arb cannot work.

Leaving at first light tomorrow as part of a search team looking for the 2 missing planes..just hope this freakin weather clears up overnight
I remember a few years back there was an "internet" search for that man whose name escapes me (the high tech ultralights ... the Gossomer (sp) fellow) where volunteers scanned sat photos looking for the wreckage.

Do you remember what I'm talking about, and how did that turn out?

Hey OQ,

had a nice dinner?

tested BIS volume rebalancing of the indices a bit today with the one markit uses for anually rebalancing. Has some points here and there but i think it has to be dynamic tapping into one or a few exchanges...
