It’s been quite a “meh” day for me so far. One of my zillion shorts, GCI, surged by nearly a quarter, so obviously I got stopped out of that at a loss (and was reminded of why I keep any individual position to less than 1% of my portfolio……….) And equities are stronger on the whole, although not by much. I covered some of my positions, most of them with profits, and updated the stops on the rest. I’m down to about 64% committed right now (the rest in cash).
With all the excitement around Japan, I was privately bemoaning the fact that I couldn’t see real Nikkei data on ProphetCharts and had to make do with lame ETF symbols like NKY and EWJ. However, it occurred to me that I had actually never tried entering the Nikkei futures, so I took a stab at a symbol, and………voila!
I have no idea if this will work with other ProphetCharts folks or if I just have special Wonder Twin Powers, but at least I can fire up Nikkei charts now and watch their market collapse 20% in the space of two weeks while ours does nothing but levitate.
