Lotsa bad advice out there about shorting treasuries by going long term short on $TBT. It resets daily-you'll get sawtoothed. Better ideas?

Following book review links from @gilesbowkett may cause $AMZN's recommendation engine to consider u a wannabe pimp into GTD & weight loss.

FWIW, I'm still short $BBY from back in the day, with a $26 cost basis. It's probably a good time to bail, despite renewed short interest.

@howardlindzon re $THQI Go w/innovation (e.g. $ATVI) not with repackaging tie-ins . Category makers win (GH & Rockband) not rebranding crap.

Crushed on the $SRS today. Picked a bad week to get busy this past week, but buy/hold gains are more than offsetting trading short losses.

Crushed on $FAZ, but out now. Epic bad call. Need to quit messing with these ultras when I can't watch like a hawk.

@johnnymartin I'm asking @fortune8 over on his blog re $FAZ Probably look at pre-market first, then set limit before work. I'm lame.

Thinking about getting on the $FAZ bandwagon for 1 more ride this week. Market "rally" seems like an artificial Pandit pump and dump to me.

Sold to close $AAPL calls for +36%; sold last bit of $INTC calls for +80%. Averaged down on $BBY puts and $SPY puts.

Sold off about half the remaining $INTC calls. Trading account down due to net short positions, but buy and hold made up for it and more.

Tweeps: what think about $ATVI? Bought $ERTS "Rock Band 2", and it is painfully clear that Harmonix is secret sauce over Guitar Hero III.
