 (1:56 PM) arak99: Tom, does it make sense to go short on the close around ES 915 (ES >920 is not good for shorting)
 (1:56 PM) arak99: I mean ES 915 to 919
 (1:57 PM) tomthetrader: I would now go by the clock more than price...meaning we want to get short but don't want to sit out the weekend with unrealized losses

 (2:00 PM) tomthetrader: tough to trust...downside now to 875 next week upside limited to today at 922.50
 (2:02 PM) tomthetrader: yes ..in theory but considering it is all computer generated there trully is a unlimited amount of shares
 (2:02 PM) tomthetrader: so even if call option exceeds shares available they still trade knowing only about 20% are actaully given back
 (2:02 PM) tomthetrader: or bought back
 (2:03 PM) tomthetrader: most retire worthless
 (2:04 PM) tomthetrader: SLM Cramers best pick in 20 years in my opinion ..makes me mad

 (2:04 PM) thomas_Poland: unless they are lucky or real pros
 (2:04 PM) thomas_Poland: if 80% of options retire worthless why trade 20% chance ?
 (2:04 PM) thomas_Poland: you do it great Tom .. but most people loose at it
