Warren Buffet ....... about 10 years ago there was a picture posted of him wearing an ET shirt - I think Baron was next to him. I doubt he ever an ET member though.

Also keep in mind that the probability of an OTM option becoming ITM increases if you are short the option and decreases if you are long the option. This is know as Murphy's Law.

1 to 7 days.

You have to go with your gut feeling and ignore articles like that. TSLA's momentum is still upward.

Days will turn into months. IMO ...... Google is going to drop Google Finance.

Google Finance has been scaling back for a few months. Yahoo Finance is going to launch a subscription service.

I think those 400:1 leveraged FX accounts are obsolete now - and for good reason. I'm certain they are shut down in the USA and Canada.

You answered your question in your previous post. The short 280 put capped your gain.

No ...... I prefer long positions only. No selling of options at all, no credit or debit spreads.

I would close both legs since you are at maximum reward. And reconsider debit spreads in the future. Open new long put position with a strike below 280.00.

IMO ..... Your biggest hurdle will be the bid/ask spread and commissions.

I don't know why tech companies don't buy these brick-and-mortar companies more often. They should take advantage of their sky high stock prices and diversify. AMZN bought Whole Foods but that's a rarity.

$176.57 +7.47 (+4.42%)

Earnings season coming to a close. TSLA at $302.55. Up 10% after earnings. TSLA May04 330.00 call at $2.16. Thursday's price target $330+.

Happens all the time and for no reason - the whole market surges up or down at the same time. And there is always an exception, one of the big techs doesn't participate and they trade flat. I find it odd that everything can move suddenly like that on no apparent news.

Fundamentals are insignificant to short-term option trades.

My post-earnings target remains the same - $180.00+ - on Wed. May 2, 2018.

AAPL - Earnings May 1 AAPL at $165.26 AAPL 180+ after earnings. 167.50 Calls $3.00. On Tuesday (May 1) at about 3:30 PM EST buy 1-strike OTM Calls in the $3.00 range for a 4x trade.

The risk:reward ratio of this iron condor is slightly less than 4:1, which is OK.

The EURCHF incident was a Black Swan Event. Black Swan Events are impossible to predict, but easily explained in hindsight. Hindsight is always 20/20. :)
