Choking on an AAPL

Horrific trading action, accentuated by steep declines in tech, led by AAPL. I hated today more than any other day because it was sneaky. The gains in the Dow only masked the true carnage.

PREPARE FOR LOWER PRICES.

Regrettably, I did not lighten up this morning and now find myself melancholy from being 110% long into a shit filled tape. I need to start selling right away. If we are on the other side of the mountain, there will be an enormous price to pay for being so heavily long.

I will deal with this HORSESHIT tomorrow. Until then, watch Asian and European markets for a tell. I will only be wrong if Asian markets ignore today’s tech debacle and charge higher.

    Prepared: Into the close I am short AAPL (greed), short GOOG (more greed), short GS (earnings play), and long TLT (obvious)…one of us will be in pain tomorrow morning.

    On the other hand, I’ll take an opening gap down, sell out, and you can have your rally for the rest of the week.

    Nikkei was down large in Japan’s Monday trading action. $RUT did ok so maybe tomorrow won’t be so bad. $RUT has lagged the NASDAQ badly thus far in 2012. So with me being long $RUT and not yet having scaled into long vol and short $RUT positions as of yet, I’m positioned properly for one last, decent $RUT rally and vol pullback.

    I’m 70% long and pissed at this tape. Is it because taxes are due? Was it a sick joke some asshole played to sell off GOOG and AAPL? Who knows, but I know this was some frustrating bull shit. Time to enjoy the nice weather and not think of Santellian[sic] rants.

    One thing is that often one of the most common incentives for utilizing your cards is a cash-back and also rebate supply. Generally, you will get 1-5% back on various expenditures. Depending on the credit cards, you may get 1% back again on most expenditures, and 5% again on expenses made going to convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores plus ‘member merchants’.

    In the great scheme of things you’ll receive an A with regard to effort and hard work. Where you actually confused me was on all the facts. You know, as the maxim goes, details make or break the argument.. And that couldn’t be much more correct in this article. Having said that, let me tell you precisely what did give good results. The writing is definitely pretty engaging and that is possibly why I am making the effort to comment. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Next, despite the fact that I can certainly see the leaps in reasoning you come up with, I am not necessarily sure of exactly how you appear to connect the points which make your final result. For the moment I will, no doubt subscribe to your point however hope in the future you link the facts much better.

    I want to show appreciation to you for bailing me out of such a crisis. Right after exploring throughout the search engines and getting ideas which are not productive, I figured my life was gone. Existing without the answers to the problems you’ve sorted out by way of your good guide is a critical case, as well as ones that would have badly affected my entire career if I hadn’t discovered your blog. Your primary ability and kindness in handling all the things was vital. I don’t know what I would’ve done if I had not come across such a solution like this. I’m able to now look forward to my future. Thanks so much for this reliable and effective guide. I won’t think twice to propose your site to anybody who should get counselling on this situation.

    You got fantastic nice ideas there. I made a research on the topic and got most peoples will agree with your blog. That it is a system where you can create very short news items of up to 140 characters, and these news items to share with others.
