I realize we have had a ridiculous up trend the last 4 months on the S&P 500 here, so who knows whats in stored for 2007, other than BLUESTREAK of course? What do you think of going a little conservative and doing an IC spread here at the year high mark? (incidentally, this would have...

Amazing - someone hit the bid on a bunch of the JAN 5 put strikes at .50. One block was for over 700 contracts. That will be a really nice chunk of change to pocket. I can not believe people are willing to sell these options. Is that decision going to hit by year end?? I still think if you did...

Good for you! I am always happy for fellow traders making moves and scores. I am just giving you a friendly word of caution. I know those Jan 5 puts look delicious to sell write now bidding .50, but you do know of course that in the next 2 weeks or less, the FDA decision is going to hit. And you...

This is something many people are overlooking. Vista is simply not going to be practical from both a cost and support perspective. When I mean support perspective, I am talking about big places of business that currently have tons of PC's and/or networks to maintain. Not to mention the fact that...

The OI is kind of interesting on those Jan 5s. You could take it either way really. That is a heck of allot of time to buy for March at a mere dime. A very attractive contract for sure. That is an insane OI though on those Jan2.5P's man. Not sure. The only way they could of sold those...

Cool .. well its in the money by a dime, which is not subtracting from your bottom line -- so the net cost is .20

You probably read my post too fast. It says to buy the $4 strike JAN put for a net cost of .20 for an ultra cheap five week hedge OR just go long on the $5 strike JAN call for a nickel

Regardless of where any of you stand on the stock side of this, or what you think of Howard -- I think we can agree on this fact. From a standpoint of pure strategy and speculation -- you could go long on the stock here, and buy $4 strike OTM Jan puts for only a net cost of 20 pennies - --...

Man - how about now? A five bagger. I got to start taking my own advice more often.

Technically speaking, the stock has not looked good in over 2 weeks. It triggered a sell signal back around $92ish range & is in limbo still right now trying to find traction.

NO :p But seriously, there is barely any open interest at the 20 & 25 strikes and a little bit at the 22.50. The 4X trading volume today speaks loud and clear. People are really believing in the CEOs comments this morning and are very bullish on the bottom line benefits to the ATI merger.

I have said this before. A really simple formula. When the VIX breaks 20, accumulate long equity positions. When the VIX breaks 10, accumulate short equity positions. I know an engineer, who barely has time to research much of anything, much less follow the market everyday like we do. The VIX...

People are piling in on this thing today. It just made a nice .10 gap like move to the high of the day with a 99000 share block fill above the ask. So looks like plenty more room here. And actually, the 3mo, 6mo, 9mo MACD are all pointing to buy here. If you also look at the chart from the...

Much further. When you look at their sales revenues, last quarter alone, they had nearly 5 billion dollars in the bag with a net profit of well over 500 million bucks. Thats a crazy number when you think about it. Also, consider the fact that they have barely tapped the market with respect...

Anything is possible. It would be pure 100% speculation as of this very minute, because technically speaking, AAPL is in limbo. On 12/5 a sell signal was given both on the MACD and STOCH & this was confirmed on 12/6. On 12/7 it broke down revisiting a 1 month low at $87. You would really have...

I have heard many different dates from different persons. Hopefully within the next 5-6 months. Its going to be really cool. Here is some jargon on how the changes will impact options traders: NASDAQ plans to operate a fully automated, price/time priority market with an opportunity for price...

They always do!
