Please change my Win pool pick to CAR for wk 2.
Thanks!
Wk 2 - ARI/W & SF/L
Thanks
Truly looking forward to that ... I'm pretty sure I will be doing one more trial run and will be in Cocoa Beach on the 24th and 25th so we can meet there, or I can stop by on the 26th when I head south ... We've got a plan to make a plan!
Is this your move back stateside?
Fred
Check it? ... Wanna buy it? LMAO
Logged 2500 miles and looked at a couple of dozen RV's before I bought my bucket of bolts!
Been a couple of surprises (Dash AC, quirky tranny and an f'ing roof leak) but I think I'll be happy with my decision. Good experience, I'm probably going to upgrade to a class A type within the year so I'll do better on the next one.
I've also been delayed by a robust real estate market ... right now it looks like no sooner than mid-Oct for my tour.
I'll try to figure out how to post some pics later.
Fred
You noticed I was running a horse with only 2 legs ... You are my idol!
Howdy
Looks like my pony is DQ'ed for price ...
Been crazy busy trying to wrap things up and not paying any attention to the market.
I'll try to pick another pony this weekend.
Wk 1 - W/SEA L/MIA please
I'd vote for tradition .. besides, I ain't gonna pick no losers this year ... LMAO
As a Stenson picker ... he shouldn't have withdrawn ... the dude needs the practice! LOL
Spieth, Reed, Stenson, Kuchar, Watson, Rose, Grillo, Lingmerth, Horschel, & Furyk
thanks
Maybe I'll see you in October .. when's blizzard season? LOL
Don't spend much time looking at the market lately. I know you love gaps ... the SPX has a few open gaps below. Wouldn't be surprised by a retrace to 2100 to fill a couple.
Congrats!
I came close to stealing it ... if only Hideki could have made some of his 92 birdie putts! LOL
It was a good watching tourney!
Day, Kuchar, Grace, Matsuyama, Garcia - 274
I sure wish you could teach eTrade that math!
DRYS is off to the glue factory ... let's try ICLD at .57 close
Thanks
Fred
Hey CC ... I think you need to check the math on my total ... looks like a decimal point off.
Funny, I meant to pull that pony from the track! I'll try to get a new pick up this weekend.
Thanks for all the work buddy
Fred
Wasn't me!
Hope life has been treating you kindly. I've been crazy busy
I've logged about 2500 miles in the past month ... that was driving around the state looking at RV's that the owners lied thru there teeth about.
Just bought one today. An 1989 27 ft class C winnie.
You can unblock that date ... I've moved very slowly at getting ready to hit the road and will be shifting the RV trip back a month or so.
Be well buddy

Hey buddy ... always nice to see you pickin'
Most of my recent picks have come from a variation of GB's volume scan combine with an "Estes" scan.
WTF is an Etses scan you might ask and I'll answer ... Not sure I know WTF it is but I think Estes is from stockcharts.
DRYS @ 2.19 close ... thanks
Hope I didn't just doom you my good friend ... bought some 14's for .21
Now I really mean GL Buddy
Let's see if that red wave kicks in after 1
Wish you better luck than I had ... ran with -30%, my discipline is to run at -20% so I did take full advantage of the opportunity to suck twice. I'm going to track these mistakes, I should have switched sides at -20%
Here's an interesting observation to share, I think you follow Walmart ... I had the opportunity to spend 13 hours travelling to Tallahassee and back on the Turnpike, I-75 and I-10 ... I did not see one WallyTruck on the road. May be some reason but I drive these roads fairly often and normally see dozens. Not sure what it means but I found it quite weird.
I'll probably do something with the VXX tomorrow, most likely in whatever direction it opens and looking for 10 min signal.
GL Buddy!
fred
POS - ARNA @ 1.57 close
Thanks
VXX 15.50 calls @ .52 ... hope to be out by the bell
McIlroy, Rose, D. Johnson, Matsuyama and the Mick -267
Thanks
I used to like working, course real estate is flexible. I'm only kinda working nowadays ... new sleep pattern makes real estate tough to do but a few deals still fall in my lap. Had to file for soc sec, pays to be old!
So I am actually going to try to see if I could live off of trading the VXX. If so ... or maybe either way, I sense my real estate days are coming to an end later this year.
Alas my friend you are right again ... work sucks! I'm sure you have an exit plan from "work", hope it's close!
Thanks .. crappy job on the impulse play ... not much discipline!
C'est la
Have a fun weekend!
I remembered ... barely!
Driving on the highway at 4:52 and I thought to myself ... Happy Hour.
Exited the highway and at 4:58 I was able to use my phone to search "Historical"
Click the post I replied to and you will see $33,433 is the mark to beat.
Note: that data is as of 2013
Worked for 2x ... now holding VXX calls with the profit for an SPX retrace
Glad I played golf .. read was okay on timing of moves but the 1:30 dip was unseen by my eyes and would have made any trade a loser!
Today I am looking for a market bounce to start around 11:45-12:30 to play VXX puts hoping to exit around 2;30.
Market opened to the upsiade but is retracing ... I'm playing golf, if I wasn't I'd be looking for a 10:45 or 12:15 opportunity to buy VXX puts. I'd be hoping to exit around 2-2:!5
Today's vision ...
one more retrace (SPX) around 3 and a bounce into the close between 3:30 -3:45
(Edit: don't think this bounce is playable on a Wed but would be on Friday)
Tomorrow I want a gap down on the open. If it does, the next move up between 10:30 & 1:00 should be good for VXX puts.
Friday will probably continue the market bounce, if so There may be a good play on VXX calls late in the day
Most excellent!
Real Sweet play on the VXX buddy ...
Too bad it isn't Friday, that would be 5-6 bagger!
I thought about VXX calls this afternoon at the close ... I didn't because I'm trying to restrict my play to Thurs and Friday, it's a big dif in % rate of return without the added premium buying so far out (5 days is far out!)
I'm still guessing the market goes down for another week or two and see a decent move up start in 3 weeks
There's a record to be broken ... not sure what it is or who holds it ... but ...
Somewhere on the board is a recap of our history ... if you are a paying IHUB member you could search this board for History or Historical or Statistics
Of course I could do it during happy hour ... every week I think of something to search for and never remember until happy hour has past!
Hell of a pick dude!
fred
Be nice if I could paste and show you, wouldn't it?
