Hey Saleem,

I don't trust myself or the market right now. Almost every chart I look at is horrible, but I can't pin down a reason for further selling from here except for data that hasn't come out yet, and even "bad" data comes with a bullish offset in a possible taper delay.

I was looking at M strongly last night but it ran away today.

TXTR keeps moving higher and higher. I hope they do a secondary soon so that I can consider a re-entry.

I should have added more FB when it was lower as it is my "easiest" bullish call, and even being my largest position it's only 7.1% of the portfolio.

Hi Stocktrader,

Most traders are struggling with current TAPE....

August & September are difficult trading months as it is a transition from slow to strong Q 4....

If you follow your own hunch ie FB & TXTR....you will do well......but we all second guess ourselves....

I expect another "choppy week"

Hey Saleem,

And just to clarify, FB is my largest *long* position. TZA still represents 23.6% of the portfolio. That was helpful yesterday for sure.
