Noice! I been scalping the Monday 390's, while watching VIX. out at the moment, but maybe I'll dip one more time.

---

cmon QQQ, gimme 388+ ... 1 more scalp. Brew on fire today. I'm liking this scalp thing, to hell with holding overnight!

Interesting spot gents.

Quad witch go time is about to start. Pick a chart of a big name and have fun watching. Sometimes it's crazy, sometimes it's not.

I choose AAPL

Buying SPY at the close

47 mil (shares bought) 1 min candle at the close. Wowzers!

And here I was thinking the pterodactyl pattern was extinct .

Covid scare risk in the markets is high with me. Globally the case counts are up but the global death count is almost flat the last month. I don't know if that means omicron is less fatal and all these people dying from Delta or if still too early to know if omicron is fatal. I think it's possible there will be one more scare. A lot of vaccinated people are getting sick now. I think a lot of scared people that got vaccinated who felt a sense of immunity will lose that faith seeing so many vaccinated people getting sick.

I'm thinking it's possible we start the year with another Covid scare and earnings get the market back up

Anyone think that's related to firms rebalancing? Either taking the shares they wanted or selling the shares they needed, through option exercising, to meet their policies?

Retail sales surveys are not good. Rates going up. Inflation high.

You are staring stagflation in the face, with democrats in charge. It is 1977 all over again

There's some big volume spikes all over the place, par for the course on QW.

I think this is the excuse to break the 50 again.

Lockdowns coming soon to a theatre near you

AH looking pretty solid so far.

I'm pondering the market for 2022. I think we will continue to see Covid scare until Q3 due to elections. The public is/will continue to tire of it but I think a big possible market mover is a paradigm shift in some large corporations moving away from Dem states.

I think if dem-controlled states keep pushing the mandates and lockdowns, we may see several corporations move to more corporate/freedom friendly locations. I think that could have a huge positive impact on the market. If many of them considered moving to states with low corporate taxes, we could see some additional future earnings get pried in to the market in expectation. Just something I'm thinking about and would like to know your thoughts?

I got assigned on a bunch of DIA shares. I could have bought to close but I think it will be OK to keep them.

Absolutely!

Dow is one of the clearer charts of all the indexes. It's not being melted up by a couple rogue big stocks. They're all big! Just sell some covered calls far out of the money on Monday with the first spike and then check back in a week after January expiration. I think you'll be pleased.

None of my bs lotto flies hit this week. None. I also rolled my CLOV $5 puts out a month for $0.22 more.

But ROKU. ROKU! If 59 is reading this I promise not to scalp this time and sell all my shares and LEAPS prematurely.

Anyone on here trade through 2008?

I panicked and dumped everything into AAPL. And shorted AAL out of principles.

Second paragraph, I agree with. Scary part of that is corporations move away and the blue state starts losing tax base. Tax base that pays all the public sector pensions that are crazy high. Then blue state goes to Washington DC looking to get bailed out because tax base does not exist to cover budgets & pensions. Congress loves a new federal tax, but they like spending more so Congress bails out the blue state with a spending bill. Result, all the tax payers foot the bill for the bailout. Don't see a way around it.

I wasn't trading yet in 2008. Rough year from what I've heard.

Yes. It sucked. But you know what, 2009 was awesome.
