Peter D, Just a note of thanks. Eight weeks ago, I entered my first RUT strangles, when the RUT was at 625. Tomorrow, I will let them expire, with the RUT at 625 (give or take). I didn’t care when the RUT went to 650, nor when it dropped to 590. Easiest, no touch money I’ve made in a long time.

Gel1…..I’ve been here 6 months, mostly watching and learning. Lots of smart people on the site and I’ve learned a lot from Phil and many others. //// Inflan - I have to trump your sentiments regarding the wisdom of the board. I have to thank Phil and the many contruibutors for a 80% profit for 2009. I have learned a lot and am still learning ( even occasionally about political issues - ha! )

Just closed out my V put for 50% in 24 hours thanks Phil!

Phil - I’m with you just little bit longer than a month and you can not imagine how happy I am now, and not just because my P/L improved ( and I’m sure that it will be even better), but I found that the worst thing in trader’s carrier is a LONELINESS. Here I found so many bright good guys, I looked for this service for years. THANK YOU AND TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF BECAUSE I PLAN TO STAY HERE AND RIDE THIS CREASY MARKET WITH YOU FOR ANOTHER 20-30 YEARS

The strategy you have laid out pretty much mirrors much of my trading activity. I also mix in some momentum plays and \"drop dead\" bargains that come across my radar. My YTD trading profit is 63%. Back in March when Phil said \"unless you think the world is coming to an end, then NOW is the time to start taking positions in Buy/Writes with the VIX so high.\" I jumped in with both feet - ( thanks, again Phil)

Phil - I caught the interview…. terrific!. Your host recommended that the viewers should \" go to your site, as you will be entertained \". That is for sure if you consider entertainment is laughing while you read, learn and make unbelievable leveraged profits that you never thought were possible. That is my kind of entertainment !

Phil Thank you very much, I appreciate your help and wisdom.

Phil: I am always able to figure out your trades, including the rational when put in the right context of previous comments, etc. Keep doing what you’re doing. It is much appreciated, and invaluable. Your hit rate of successful trades has been very high in my 1.5 months as a member, but even more importantly is your teaching of how to repair and DD positions that haven’t gone your way yet. As with most members, we all have our ‘pet’ trading interests, and learning how to think about trading is much more important than a specific trade, which could see the conditions behind it change an hour later. This is the classic case, of ‘Teach us to Fish’, rather than just giving us a fish once in a while. Thank you!

GLD I took out my callers and rolled down my longs this morning, woo hoo!

WOW, glad I went bearish… Phil, thanks for the help on the QID calls yesterday, I turned it into a partial cover rolling down to the Feb 52s selling the 55s 1/2 covered. Sold 1/2 and now lowered my cost basis to $4.38 on the $52s (fully covered).
