Bought some (5) UBNT Mar 50 calls today @ $3.35. UBNT was breaking out and this should be the entry point. I also bought 4 SAVE Mar 50 calls @ $3.80 this morning. Used about -$3225 on both trades. I'm setting up for March to see if this rally stands.

Note to self, FB post earnings is good for a profit. Sold FB FEB 14, 2014 $61 calls today at $3.95 for a gain of +1,570.02 and took off the TRIP call spread from yesterday at $4.15 for a gain of +810.06. Overall, I'm not sitting at $5,005.71 +$905.71 from my initial account of $4100. Glad to...

Added 4 TRIP feb 85/90 call spread at 1.90 today.

Looks like FB wasn't done trading higher. Bought these 61 calls on day after earnings, and it is going to give me a net profit as I finally shake off that ugly start.

Used the rest of my cash to buy FB calls just minutes ago. Let's see that momentum run, and I'd like to make my money back.

Well, FB is at new highs. Those 4 FB jan weekly 47/51 put spread I bought at $1.45 is going to $0. On the bright side, my call trade on V nailed the reversal play with the call spread as V is up to $224 this morning. Looking to recover FB loss and more.

I think FB is going down and Visa is going up. Just set up V Jan call spread @ $1.48 and FB put spread @ $1.17. Cost for both trades came to -1471.90.

Damn me, feeling like I saved someone on the other side of the IBM trade. I thought IBM would stage a rebound at levels yesterday, but screw me. IBM is looking to drop below $176 and I think my put options would have been as high as $6.00.

Alright, cash is $2965.11 about a loss of -1135. I felt like I got away with one there. There's a lot of movement this week, will probably take a position on FB and ALGN. Those are the two I'm looking forward to.

Out of IBM puts with a smile :). Just glad to lock in a big profit here.

I already had that loss on IBM call spread, but took additional losses on CREE to a total of -1,116 on that trade and the SNDK call was a total loss of -508. Overall, Not looking good again, except for my IBM feb 180 puts, which are close to a double and will cover some of the losses. Starting...

And used the remaining capital on SNDK jan 24 2014 $75 call @ $0.99 costing me -$508. Got $98 in cash left, looks like I'm putting all capital to use right now, all or nothing on CREE IBM and SNDK

Yep, took some hits and losses but I'm back at another try, this time with help. I bought 3 CREE jan 24 2014 $62.5 call/ and 3 CREE jan 24 2014 $62.5 put for -2160 plus comm. I also bought 3 IBM jan 24 2014 $190/$195 call spread @ $1.80 average price for -540 plus comm. I believe both...
