We have a monster rally from the getgo today which I so naively thought was tied to index option expiration, and now we do nothing, no chance to trade and try and make a few bucks to cover losses on positions, I got one decent scalp on the long side in MPG common stock but no movement in the market - zilch. That has been the norm lately you get a huge move and the market just sits for hours - as if it has been put on cruise control. That MPG trade made up for the silliness of being short Nasdaq futures. MPG rallying 34% should be continued tinder for MPGpA to continue its ascent ( i hope).
Is it wrong of me to want to get to a certain amount of dollars in the bank and then never work again - if I could make the money - could I do it? Could I just chill? I think I could - my kids are young 11,8,5, and almost 2 - so its not like I could just pick up and move to a lakehouse (which is what I want to do) and of course my wife would have to want to go with me - I dont want to be miserable with anybody else - but Id love the opportunity to try it out. Why else be in such a high risk business so that I can slave away until Im 75? nope.
