About market, HSBC Chinese Flash PMI came in @ 50.9% for October vs 50.2% in September, this is a major positive for bulls. Selling pressure has been orderly & not severe. We are only 13 points away from all time high in S&P 500. Brian Kelly's 33% bear exposure will not work again ?.

Hi Stocktrader,

My selling advantage was lost due to my effort to locate news on CIEN & FNSR weakness.....

Hey Saleem,

CLDX got a price target reiteration of $40 yesterday. It looks more interesting now than any time in recent weeks if you're looking for ideas.

Hey Saleem,

Sold YY @ 50.602 based on NQ's weakness and the possibility of accounting fears surrounding Chinese stocks again.

I felt it was a good idea to be safe on this because a turn in sentiment could easily drop the stock 10-20%.

Ideally, I'll buy it back more cheaply.

Hi Stocktrader,

YY is extremely volatile based on sentiment which fluctuates weekly.
