    Going to try to get some SPN sub-21 tomorrow (missed it today). How big a concern is the Street Downgrade?

    • blablah: 21 is the support level, if it breaks down, can go down pretty good in a flash..

            • briandiplacido: ....in the few months before (the election)? I was thinking of looking to get long XIV towards end of summer. Just an idea.

            • Rialto: No specific plans around the election. I chart the 10 day sma of the VIX to let me know which way to go. It is rising, but getting flater.

                60K+shares have been traded before 0700 today @ approx 4.64. MHR. I though you couldn't trade before 0700?

                    Haven't felt this way since HEK. May have to stop the bleeding, MHR.

                    • briandiplacido: Confusing--read breakdown of today's trades, claiming 1.81 bought/sold ration, but 3.77 put/call ration--isn't that contradictory?

                    • briandiplacido: ie more shares being bought than sold is bullish, but puts outnumbering calls makes me think I'm holding NFLX into earnings.

                            Is that a little panic-selling in MHR premarket? Or folks cutting losses @ 20%+?. Dang.

                                SVVC. What's the probable dynamic here? Steady gains with the roadshow, or not much action until shares actually trading?

                                            Only 5% spread between top and bottom dogs on my 20-stock watchlist. Interesting, average more like 12%.
