No Market for Old Men

These markets are faster and more deceptive than ever.  For every good idea I have, there are three bad.  Unless I can capitalize on the good by diligent execution, the bad will quickly outnumber me.  I do not care how well you play Halo or Call of Duty from your favorite spot on the map, when you are outnumbered even a gaggle of pwns can take you down.  Straight pwnage brah.  This is who you are trading against:

puke

I have three call positions:

CREE, TSLA, and ANGI

That’s enough call options in my life.

I have three common stock trades:

AIXG, SCTY, and QQQ

That’s enough swing trades in my life

The rest of my book is bracket committed (invested) into TWTR, LO, and GRNH because I am a quality guy.

I added a new tool to my futures trading repertoire this week and it has been a tremendous help.  Loyal iBankCoin comrade and fellow Pelican DVK1970 introduced me to it, and it really feels like the piece I was missing to achieve consistent profitability.

Trading is going well, the stats are solid and I am avoiding the traps I normally fall into.  We shall see what the summer brings, but I look forward to picking this game back up and going live again.  If you are feeling too old for the market, step back for a moment.  I spent most of the early afternoon building out new infrastructure for my grape vines.  It was very relaxing and creating something tangible was rewarding to my soul.  Also, increase your exercise and cut out the booze for a while.  These are a few actions working for me.

Now I am off to till the soil and sow the land.

    Raul, glad to see you gardening. Grapes are fine on their own, but I’m left wondering if you have grandeur plans of vinification… On another note, this always looked like a fun grape trick, though I would only dare think of trying it in a workplace microwave – (Russian version chosen on purpose- I’m long $MTL) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nz0wD_wyQuA

      I made archways to enter the two garden areas, I was tired of ducking under.
