Off for the day. Tomorrow is travel, I'll babysit my trades from airport lounges.

Shorting DRI with Feb put spread, chart building an island reversal. Apologies to any "Dead Lobster" fans.

My scan shows 5 major stocks below 52-week point, 4 are health stocks. Watch XLV as a potential downside leader.

Sold the last batch of SPY puts, could be dip-buyers ruling the market close.

Letting my SPY puts from Tuesday do their work, up nicely. Likely will sell them at the close, "best-before" date is next week.

Protective stop hit on short puts, decent profit. Riding 1/2 of long SPY puts down the ski slope.

Stopped out of half SPY long puts, riding the rest plus the shorts as a ratio spread.

SPY puts: selling against my longs to make a spread. $SPX volume below Friday - Big Boyz are still absent, I must be prudent here.

Screens. Above 52W: ALK, AVAV. Below 52W: none (some ETFs). It's a stock-pickers market with no real leaders/laggards.
