August is still prime school break time for the UK, however Biden has had the entire UK on a red list since January. No vacationing Brits over here whatsoever. The UK on red list makes zero sense.

FWIW, I still have 60% cash position to manouver any complete panic meltdowns in the markets.

Bought some $25 October call options on NCLH at the bottom ticked low of day today. Money I am willing to throw away entirely, but plenty of time for this delta variant to really play out. (Also hold whole shares of this name in my retirement account)

Same boat that I can be early on the travel timing. However, I always leave a cash pile on the side if my timing is off. As soon as the case count decline circles wider media, the rotation should come back in. We’ve got another 2-3 weeks of lagging hospitalization media sensationalism to get...

$2.7 Billion to the buy side MOC. That's crazy.

I am in DAL, NCLH, TRVG, and DIS for travel bump when delta variant fears subside. Tracking cases daily now and it looks like it has plateau'd for now.

Taking a swing here on DIS with it at 200 day support (plus oversold travel names). SPY also near 20 day support here. As always, leaving plenty of room to add lower in quality names. Already have a healthy profit margin on this from 7/19 sell-off and sold on the earnings high of day.

Funny enough. I had my trade station up premarket today when the news broke. Had the same $20 order sitting out there for a while. When the news broke premarket, it hit 20.01. Another penny fill miss. Irony of this lawsuit is, most spacs are guilty of the practice accused in the suit. PSTH...

News on CNBC today is a lawsuit from a former SEC commmissioner on PSTH. All spacs could have precedent on this. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/17/bill-ackman-spac-sued-plaintiffs-say-sponsors-got-staggering-compensation.html

Anything remotely linked to reopening/ travel were hammered. (Delta COVID worries)

OPEN fade short from 100D SMA, over $1 so far,

OPEN possible gap fade play today. Not sure if the SPY is going to help or hinder.

White House reporting a leveling off in delta cases. My travel sector swings love this news. Could possibly be further downward pressure on MRNA too, as it was massively overbought recently.

+20% on that NCLH 7/19 swing. 7.5% on DAL

COIN reporting tonight after the bell. Should be interesting!

18% return on NCLH since 7/19 purchase. Just solidifies I make the biggest returns on those market washout days. I love seeing red!!

All travel names are decently green today. As predicted, I think some investors are realizing delta variant isn't the end of the world. Oversold sector predictably moves higher.

RNA Tech Firm GreenLight Biosciences to Go Public in $1.5 Billion SPAC Deal https://www.wsj.com/articles/rna-tech-firm-greenlight-biosciences-to-go-public-in-1-5-billion-spac-deal-11628586000 Got about $10k fun money I had invested in this. Might actually hold this through merger to see what...

Double beat, not much movement AMC. The CEO said "Not out of the woods yet."

It will matter when those hodlers get smashed on a potential miss. Still no release

AMC earnings due after the bell. Going to be interesting for the WSB crowd.

Anyone else waiting an absurdly long time for their tax refund? Filed mine on May 23rd (previously filed an extension), it was e-filed and accepted on the same day. Here we are now over 2 months later and still haven't seen my tax return. Their tracking service still says it is processing...

FCEL having quite the day.

I have also been in NCLH (Norwegian Cruise Lines). Easier chart over the last year, and also massively sold off on the 19th last month.

DAL has been the easiest to trade during pandemic. I was buying originally last year in the $25-$26 range and sold ~$45. Busy loading the boat again during maximum fear overpanic about the Delta (covid) variant. The increase in cases is, for the most part, in the unvaccinated. Since this new...

Step ahead of you on this.

Each their own honestly, I tried paper trading for a month and felt nothing. No matter how much I mimic'd my real trade plan, it felt like a video game with zero consequence. Trading 1k share blocks scaling in and out = zero emotion. Then going live and trading with 100-200 share size I was an...

Trading in the Zone is great for audiobook. In fact, I signed up for a free trial of Audible and you're given a freebie and I took this. Trade Mindfully has some charting examples and encourages you to work through some exercises. Probably best grabbing the paperback for that one. Both are top...

I have a couple required reading I recommend before actively day trading. https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/trading-in-the-zone-mark-douglas/1100623183 Think you can also listen free on YouTube. and https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/trade-mindfully-gary-dayton/1124374790

Back from my month+ of vacation. Seems I came back to typical august low volume chop. Only plays I see are long term trades on the beaten up travel sector. Possibly an oversold paranoia about the delta variant. I had picked up some DAL / NCLH / CCL over the rough last week(s) for the...

Yikes!! A SPAC Earnings Disaster Leaves Advent Facing $800 Million Loss A SPAC Earnings Disaster Leaves Advent Facing $800 Million Loss

Up another 9% today

Bought NCLH yesterday and it’s up 9% today.

Some serious selling over the last few weeks in the travel sector. some airlines and cruise lines the lowest price since last year.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/electric-truck-startup-lordstown-motors-discloses-justice-department-investigation-11626443066 Color me shocked.

Travel stocks have been fairly beaten up. I’ve picked up small DAL (pre-earnings). I’d like to go bigger, but still cautious of an overdue market pullback. *Disclaimer: I’m on vacation and unplugged from news 98% of the time here.

PSTH in the $20s. Man o man. Imagine those bag holders. Do you really think remainco keeps its nav with no actual spac protection? Highly doubt it with this price action, which was part of my concern and one of my reasons for selling in the first place.

PSTH new all time low. Very happy I cut bait during the DA presentation

Polestar has been out with vehicles sold for a while though. It’s not a Lucid or Lordstown.
