Sometimes we listen to each other's advice, but mainly like to make fun of the other when we lose since we bless different strategies. I'm hoping for a dead cat bounce tomorrow to clean up some with my Jan options expiring. Some of those are close to being assigned. Maybe you can do the reverse of what I do and make $ instead of lose this week.

I've wanted to sell more calls, but I'm so busy with my new job that I don't have time to focus on it and I end up just losing more each day. I was hoping for a Fed rate cut today, but when we didn't get it I wasn't around to get out of any holdings. I need to either sell more calls or just close some positions. I'm close to losing as much as I made all of last year, just this month. Robert, sadly I haven’t changed my strategy much yet.

Of course some stocks will keep on going up no matter what. How are you adapting your strategy when most of the stocks are being pulled down by the DOW?

How are you adapting your strategy when most of the stocks are being pulled down by the DOW?
