Pabst's Blue Ribbon Trades

Discussion in 'Journals' started by Pa(b)st Prime, Mar 29, 2007.

  1. Bought futures near the close at 1422. Still short some deltas but I very well may unwind everything to-morrow and get flat. On the other hand.....

    I'll let ya all know.

  2. Well said.

    I have a blue ribbon special this week. Is anyone interested in such info, and does anyone want to suggest a workable time for me to post such info?

  4. Actually, what I meant was..if I have a blue ribbon special earnings play that reports say...wednesday morning...should I dislose it before or after trading today? As long as people don't come forward and request it be made available before 4pm to trade, there's really no difference for me, since the earnings are reported the next day anyway. Either way, i'm posting the blue ribbon trade "ahead" of the fact.

  5. Tired of only making +1% to +2% at a time in the stock market ?

    Short mos today, and take +5% to +10% by wednesday morning !

  6. Amazing the stony silence, like Tyson getting knocked out in Tokyo.
    I bet lots will have something to say tomorrow when I make +10% overnight on a substantial position ! Gotta love ET !

    Maybe we are waiting to see how the trade plays out? I take it you expect people to congratulate you now?

  8. When do they release? Tomorrow, eh? I'd never heard of MOSAIC COMPANY before. :D

    Hey, you hit one after another though!

    I stayed semi hedged (long ES futures, long 1480 long 1440p, s 1400 puts) Short just enough deltas to have a decent day.

  9. Man give us a second, looks good so far. You are short from around $91.00 at the close correct? looks like it tanked to $87.00
    and bounced. So you should take profits in the low 80's otherwise its Old Milwaukee for you. :)

  10. I don't get it, please fill me in. This post hit 4 minutes after the close with the stock at $88 and change. It looks to be up after hours. Next time get me in at $96.
