Shocked at how US is holding up compared to Europe. Dow should be some 200 points lower given where FTSE and Dax are today.

Oh well.

Greece down 6%!

Closed 50 short on my Dow at 14450, feeling too leveraged.

Trying to run the rest for a while.

Dow down 118 so far. I should un-mute bloomberg and find out why

Euro falling hard, Italy politics in turmoil (isn't that normal for them?), Euro markets off, S&P failed to hit all time high in market open hours.

etc.

Closed the 50 I opened yesterday, got 14450, but should have closed more - I forgot about home sales which could easily swing the market up again.

Just can't believe the Dow is still up here, given how Europe is down anywhere from 1% to 6% !

Last time Dax was here, Dow was at 14,000.

So you have a £200 a point short now ?

yes it is annoying but it will go eventually if not today tomorrow ! normally when your not looking its down 300 ! but that hasnt happen in a while !

Yes 200, it's in profit but only just.

Would be nice to get a huge drop while I'm not at the screen, otherwise I will close in stages such as a set number of points maybe 30, so 14450, 14420, 13390 etc to lock in the profit.

Wish I had chosen Dax instead because the Dow is so much more manipulated by Bernie and his cronies.

don't forget the quarterly gremlins

i got the 6320 figure by option implied volatility on expiration of March contract, wonder if we will have another attempt at it?
