Forum:Sorcerer of dark magic effect question

Sorcerer of dark magic effect question when you have it on the field and you "decide" to negate a trap are you allowed to activate traps of your own. Or does the effect not allow any traps to activated during the whole turn. Example I have sorcerer of dark magic and a wabaku or magician's circle and my opponent has a face down sakuretsu armor trap.

If he activates his trap and i say i want it negated can i still activate my magician's circle? Or are both negated?
