Yip it's quiet. If I may ask what do most trader's do here if you're long on a company and there's a strike. Do you exit then or wait for your stop loss to trigger. I ask this because I seem to be good at picking such. Thought if I stay away from the mining sector I will be better off and then SAB had one....

Stop loss.....but you can cheat, put the rule into the system, that you will exit when there is a strike, then the decision will be mechanical .....

ndabs, learn how to use options to hedge against equity held for long term holding. Options are complicated, but a rather exciting tool available.

As for options, agree with Preston, "exciting".....Goldman et all, went short, while others hedged their portfolios, Goldman made a lot of money, and they still here, the hedgers disappeared .

There is still some anxiety regarding fed tapering, so this market is primed to go either way very fast soon.....
