I only made one trade off that LOF indicator -- RBC puts a while back. Made a few hundred but it took a week.

Yup. I recall. You should've gone long. 35% plus 5% or so dividend.

Anyway, I gave you ample notice on this one. You had lots of time to capitalize on the Kong fall.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Inevitable Kong fall, I should say.

This is a weird market today.

FAANG is having a nice rebound after dozing for a while, while newer tech names are seeing some profit taking.

FUBO getting decimated! Mamamia. Another one that when it was almost $60 last week, I figured would go to $80 this week. Nope, $35. The Costanza method of trading might work for me - do the opposite of what I think short term.

Tis true. I didn't 100% believe in not believing in you. My loss.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

You fucked up.

I concurred earlier -- Weird day. Market looks strong but lots of violent red moves hiding behind the indices

Are you calling me out Greg Moore style again!? That would be twice in two weeks.

I don't presume that people read every word here, so I don't engage in Greg Moore attacks.

TLDR; we're seeing the same thing marketwise!

What a turnaround in some of the individual names today. Incredible swing.

Resulting in an incredible schwing.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Fucking stubborn monkey though.

Green Thumb going crazy in the US market. -- up 4.6%. CXXIF up 9%

So, I have to cancel my Alaska Airlines card soon. I'll use it just before I cancel and assume reward points will remain safe in that account despite 12 months of dormancy?

You're good for 24 months. Worst case buy some miles or get the card again (assuming it's still around) before then.

 

[Preston]

Just make sure you have an Alaska reward miles account. My buddy got this card and never connected his card to his reward account and I don't think he ended up getting any points as a result. Oops.

 

[CH1]

Oh yeah...made my account on the first card. this is my second card, set to expire in Feb. Not very aggressive on it but I figure it might come in handy on a Japan/Korea flight

Nice US redemptions as well. Some other options may open up when they switch over to oneworld this upcoming summer, though I do expect a healthy devaluation...which honestly might be worth it for us folks in Toronto. Our options with Alaska are limited.

Tldr: earn and hoard. Eventually we'll find a use for them. I'm done selling points I think. Time to enjoy them.

Depends entirely on whether LOF applies for the card or not.
