FEB/MAR 09 trades



Put on a few postions yesterday (see pic). Some trades are closing existing trades or risk management. Put on a bearish bias SPY trade with pos vega, put on a slightly bullish QQQQ trade and a OIH trade for long oil spec. Also played a slighly bullish XLE vertical on. Oh yeah and a RUT iron condor for some good measure.
I wanted to have more of a positive vega exposure as the vix was at a support level and just was so unlikely that it would dip under the 40 mark. Well, today 1/14 Vix is up to the 50's again and if I was able to put the postions on with some more pos vega my losses would of been mititgated. taking a bit of a hit today as the market is all down 2-4% respectfully.
