Good job. It was a hard day.

Why did you buy TLT? Options?

I like MYL. Cheap and controversial. Options too?

Not too crazy about Tech here although outflows from Financials could support Tech.
Thanks! We need to catch up soon.

$TLT is from short term volume capitulation (so a bounce trade).  $MYL has some suspicious options buying, yes. 

Thanks, hope you're doing alright yourself - definitely catch up some time.

Tech Trader is 60% long by 40% short after exiting its $SPY trade (still 100% hitrate btw). We might actually do better in a market sell off but hard to say because of stock selection.
