Trade Journal for Dummies(LOL)!

Totally playing da-Boyz for FOOLS and selling Short Apr34 puts at 2.38!

Wow, we're gonna be Waaaayyyy Offf, well, AGAIN, LOL! We're gonna GAP down instead of Up! As is true to dare nature, 4cast, TA, Charts, Fibs & Lies are just dat, a Road to da-Poor-House, oh boy, sighhh!!

That said, we feel quite fortunate to get an opportunity to RE-Load the Long plays on the GAP down and like to take a moment to give a Shout-Out to da-Boyz for their Awesome ability to, well, Paint Pictures of Armageddon while configuring for a Break-Out of meaning, THANKS BOYZ!

The 4cast has changed slightly but more up is on the agenda for today with New YTD High being part of da-Boyz Full_Court_Jester_Mode festiv-a-tees, Sweeet!

Date Open High Low Close
3-Apr 32.11 32.40 31.83 32.35
6-Apr 31.97 32.24 31.68 32.27
4cast
7-Apr 31.89 32.62 31.23 31.45

We be buying calls and selling puts on this mornings weakness and we LIKE IT!

Posted last nite with the "Update" post:
It day’s like today that jeopardize da-Game as da-Boyz “Manipulate” prices in such an Obvious manner that even the Ignore-a-muses figure it OUT, LOL! I’ve spent mucho time and effort rat-ing da-Boyz out and today they help me case, oh boy, sighhh!!

We expect more Up-age and more Pain for the Shorts as they get to the point of no return, OUCH! The good news is there are people who can help-em cope if they can get out of bed and make the appointment, otherwise it’ll take intervention to bring-em back from the “Insane-a-tee” of, you guessed it, da-Boyz wrath, LOLOLOLOL!

Should be an ALL Green day, across the board tomorrow, as we prepare the shock absorbers for the Alcoa earnings after da-Bell!?
