New Highs, New Norm? 10-3-17

RUT pulled back 0.3% in the early session but made another new high by closing, up 0.2% at 1511. SPX and Dow also recorded new ATHs. In fact market do crash up. The assumption of Tyler is proven to be wrong which I believed in. A dear price paid.

Made 11 trades today. Using ITM RUT calls to fund 3 rollovers. Low vol condition didn't produce much of premiums. Rolled some small contracts as well. Collected over $500 premiums but it didn't help much of my net liq. I need switch more attention to other assets to keep it small and generate more income streams.

Net liq got pushed to the edge of cliff again. With 3K reduction I am barely above 100K. I have to wire fund in again tomorrow. The reserved fund is stretched as well. It may not withstand another 2-3% surge in indexes. I may have to take actual losses instead rolling if it happens.
