    Didn't read it. I saw a $1.00 spread on the bid ask on options which is too illiquid for me.

    Got short this morning. This 2040 area is what I've been looking for so I came full size with this one.

    Limited drop today. Low volume. Holiday. Bond market closed no red this week other than China news Wednesday evening. They could run this thing to 2050 before any significant drop and pull it bad to 2000 inky to close at 2045 for the year.

    Individual stocks are hard to peg. You got some momos off the top today. Then you got tesla trying to fill a gap at 254$ and pcln up $20. Really hard to figure on the equity side

    I agree that we might run to 2045, but I like the risk to reward here on a swing trade. I got in near 37 this morning so I see my risk as about 10 points. For a swing trade I'm comfortable with this entry.

    If you are trading futures, then it's a different story.

    Nice negative overnight moves. I still think drawdown can be 2017 then 2000. It's hard to tell what equity down movers there are yet.

    DANG looks like an interesting play here. They're having an "investor analyst day" on Monday, and an earnings release later this month on November 25th. Looks like the market is hoping for something big.

    I'd say go for it. Collect almost 6% in dividends while you wait.
