Weekly: Bully Bully and Vacation time

I’ll be traveling for two weeks, so updates may be delayed or not as detailed. Trading may be less, but I will still be checking the markets.

This week, markets rally with a brief pullback on tariff news. Mostly I keep adjusting by adding long delta. I take a loss on one leg on Facebook. I take profits on some other underlyings.

Mon Stocks rally on no news. That means the bias is higher
