I saw this up near $81 on Friday. (I was in @$75.50 on Thursday) Normally, I would have taken that 7% and walked. I didn't. TVIX has me getting greedy for more than I'd normally be satisfied with....could be my eventual downfall. I need to refocus my efforts to get back on track....5-7% gainers consistently. Slow and steady wins the race.....pigs get slaughtered.

Anonymous - the online hacking group - has threatened to wipe out the NYSE from the Internet on Monday. Not sure if it is a valid threat or not, but could result in some further "uncertainty". If some sort of Cyber attack is launched, like a DDOS, I imagine TVIX will go up sharply. Couple that with the ever-present danger of the Greek default and we could see a huge down day for the market....Just a couple of the reasons why I held through the $81 pressure. We shall see.
