meant: IF market hits st top

how do you know it won't trade back to <140 in market hits st top; maybe even 130-135 I am going to buy a strangle on PNRA and then leg into short side accordingly (convert to debit & credit spread depending on entry prices and direction therafter) - will post what strikes after I take a peek

b.t.w I shop at WFM twice a week (earnings should be good - but how do you know it won't sell off since it may have discounted same )

did you enter PNRA calls or puts i was going to enter puts but thought it was a crap shoot maybe trade PNRA now if it gains traction, and looks like gap might fill

why didn't you tell me that 4 weeks ago!?? lol

everyone runs around a group of chairs until the music stops... then they all sit down. But each time someone is without a chair! So at what level will the 'music' stop on the NAZ and SPY, etc. Even the healthiest bull or bear markets have retracements/ pullbacks lasting for more than a few...

do you really genius! what a dufus! LOL

hey hotshot let us know when you turn bullish - ok?!!! (nitwit)

PNRA looks like nearing a good time to enter puts maybe do a long strangle with March and Feb today or on 2/5 last earnings it gapped higher and is already up 50% this year; gotta suspect maybe this time the expectations are so much higher and there is complacency that it could gap...

just now BIIB hit 118 AH and is now 121.26 if a stock gaps higher post-earnings, and the overall market is bullish (as it has been) then typically the gap may not be an exhaustion move but rather a runaway gap and the stock might continue further in said direction perhaps forming a rising...

simple is very often better but with all the volatility last year i got in a habit of selling front month or even weekly premium (put or calls) against back month longs. So I buy July AMZN (and march) and then try to figure out what front month (feb) strikes to sell that might be a number...

seems like all my trades this year are hope based - lol i need NDX to sell off tomorrow and/or close at or below 2500 so my short weekly 2500c expire - just to be safe I took some feb16 2550c overnight - to hedge some deltas; plan on selling feb16 2500c or 2475c late thursday; also long feb...

I find whenever I change my mind and set up a spread to try and "reduce risk" - there will be times when I limit profits; that's OK If the move (trend) continues and you have an account that allows you to roll out of one strike into a higher (or lower), and maybe at some point hold naked or...

you're first gut feel is always (usually) the best - just like taking tests (wish I would take my own advice!)

just curious - did BIIB hit 118 AH and then rally to 121? never traded it

july 190c

hope you're right - it's in my 401(k) lol

+AMZN July 190 @ 905 + AMZN March 170p @505 gong to sell front 180c/170p

hey Ryan as I mentioned before, why do you only trade front or weekly... why not pay for some time, and if you get a move like FFIV/NFLX etc. you still perform OK. Of course, in your account you cannot convert you long puts/calls into a spread to try and recoup or turn a loss into a...
