In spite of the numerous posts, I am really busy here, so I haven't had any chance to read any of the comments. It's pretty humbling to jump up and down about being bullish on the NDX yesterday when, yet again, the market is falling to pieces. Of all people, you think I wouldn't succumb to any bullish temptations. But I did, and it cost me.
Not to say I entered the day a pure bull. I still had about 40 puts, almost all of which (obviously) are doing well today. But I got hit in the gut pretty hard with some of my bullish players, and much worse, the opportunity cost of NOT taking advantage of the marvelous run-up in the $RUT yesterday afternoon was regretable.
Maybe the lack of sleep is starting to affect my judgment!
