    DIA in the $25KP is a lucky break as we ended up in the bear spread, rather than the naked short puts.  Notice it's better to be up 40% of $3.10 than 50% of $1.31!  Same with CMG – that's why those bull and bear spreads are much better ways to play if you want to be more conservative.  

    28M on the Dow at 10:30 so 7M in last 20 mins and mostly down volume.  So, what do we see – 11M all down volume in 10 mins followed by 30 mins of 10M flat, followed by 7M in 20Mins down again – that's no proof of a bottom – big volume is pushing us lower and the pauses only leave us flat – no buyers showing up yet in enough volume to matter.  

    USO/DC – Good question but, as you can see, better to buy some more time.   Oil not even holding $86 at the moment.  

    NYSE down 2% at 8,165 – they were our furthest above index and they are playing catch-up to the downside – not good…

    I'll be more worried if the S&P fails 1,400, of course.  RUT 800 in sights too.  

    LOL Pharm!  I like that Letterman one. 

    You're welcome Ink.  

    Germany down 2.25%.   

    Tempting/Hemas – Best to set a stop on 1/2 and another on the other 1/2 – keeps you from guessing a bottom.
