Wagging the Dog

As with yesterday morning, I have been busy taking profits and reducing risk. Broadly speaking:

  • Made exceptional profits overnight on EWY (South Korea) short;
  • Trimmed DIA April puts yet again (70% fewer than I started Monday morning);
  • Made solid profits on QQQ as well;
  • Loosened RIVN stop to 14.45 and actually added to that long position
  • Trimmed exposure across three portfolios from 100/80/150 down to 100/70/91 (the “100” is my fully-committed options portfolio).

I am extremely satisfied with today, and we’re only 100 minutes into it. I feel I’ve earned some time with my second-favorite activity.
