I made 13% in my IRA in 2018. Mostly selling credit spreads when volatility was higher than whats been realized. Currently short a credit spread on apple JAN 257.5-260 JAN call spread and short a credit spread on JAN SPY 266-270. Hopefully we get another big down day soon(That pushes the VIX closer to 30) so I can sell a FEB credit spread on each of these tickers too.

Play the market in front of you, not the one you want. Thanks Trump!

Funny how the usual posters aren't here yelling about

DOW +633

But I guess they only care if its down because they feel like its proving some political point, which it really isnt, but oh well.

Selling opportunity?

Looks like the Fed Powell heard me !!! A little cooperation with Trump and me goes a long way !!!

Dow punches 600 points higher after jobs data, Powell comments
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/sto...dist=bigcharts

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell Friday morning that the central bank will be prepared to quickly adjust interest rate policy if the global economic slowdown investors have been fearing of late comes to pass.

DOW erasing all of Thursday’s sharp losses after a better-than-expected jobs report showed employers adding new personnel at a robust pace, while average hourly earnings rose faster than expected.

Woohoo! Must be due to the change in Congress yesterday. Blue wave and all.

(Wait, do we say that gains are blue wave and losses are Trump, or is it the other way?)

If the rally continues will it be the Pelosi Rally? Trumpies have been blaming the drop on the Blue Wave. So surely they'll give the Dems credit for the turnaround. But ignorant phonies that they are they'll give Trump the credit. Then when the markets tank again, which they will, it will be the Dem's fault.

I'll accept your expertise on leg humping knowledge if you accept mine on having my leg humped.

Lets compromise as experts and show the way for others to do the same !!!

It is great to see today's increase but It is a blip of what is to come. The market is close to pairing yesterday's losses but it is still early. I think the market will be down as a whole come January 31st.
