The country is divided on the executive order of banning certain Muslin countries travelers into the US. There were protests and statements from tech companies against the ban. Market gaped down on this Monday. SPX and RUT lost 1 and 2 % respectively at the highs of it but recovered partially before closing. RUT is back to the low of its current range while SPX closed on top of its prior range. I don't expect the drift down will go to far during the earning session unless Wednesday's FOMC surprise the market.
Made 5 trades today. 2 rollovers and 2 ratio hedges. Also closed my USD long trade. Despite the fairly large drops none of my put sell orders got filled. It really tested my patience during the day. I may get another shot tomorrow.
Net liq increased 14K to 151K. It put me back in the safe zone for now. Margin ratio is above 40% after added new hedges to replace the expired ones. Margin is still on call side. Will continue to hedge and reduce cost.
