order selling June 1750c @ 125

bravo -- glad to pay it forward! but-- I think you got out more than just a "little" early. But ---hey it wouldn't be a challenge if we did it perfect each and every time, now would it? :D Did you consider scaling out of the 10 lot or exit all in one trade? Current bid (after a bounce)...

SOX + 4 SJX NG (Feb 535 puts) @ 5.40 avg

DNA EBAY someone up above please explain to me how the F these stocks can be doing squat on a day like this?! How is that possible. Defies all probability. :D Is there anything more frustrating then keeping underperforming trades- while watching a trade like TTWO go exactly as...

TTWO sometimes I amaze myself! Guess all those CME classes with Ken Shaleen paid off ---- or maybe it's the peanut butter oreos! :eek: Well--- maybe I should have stayed in the strangle. But it feels just as good to know my trading intuition and analystical skills are well-focused this...

bjdhawk got PM be patient and try to milk it keep eye on volume JMHO GL

bjdhawk hope you kept front month 1750p you said you entered-- and exited the long (calls) side -- assuming you took the trade idea off this journal. You recall my original premise was the uncertainty (and short interest) surrounding TTWO, and that a reasonable move was thereby imminent...

SOX to short or not to short today's upside that is the Q? I think today presents a decent short opportunity - however we may not see any significant PB until after the close of January. I'm actually long Sox Feb510/520 calls -- but got impatient and sold upper strikes too soon. Thus I...

how do you define risk/reward, and establish a plan for trading Dell based upon the following observations: "possible" DB at 29 "if" it can hold 29 "could" see a "nice bounce" and move a "little higher" (by the way what is a "little higher") just curious why you posted if you...

p.s. and IF I take short stock @80+ ---- I still have some (cheap) calls to act as cover.

I dislike not taking profits on the +leg of what was initially an OTM credit spread - and rolling/repairing although many do not get cute like this- and will lift both sides and take net profit or loss. I prefer to take a look at open interest and the underlying's s/r levels etc. before doing...

I just realized that I FORGOT to check the IV/Hv on the OIH puts before entering!! So---- how did I make ANY profits then? I gotta buy some more options books, I guess. What's the URL for AMZN.com . :eek:

when I get my "signal" guess I ought to begin scaling in; "maybe" yesterday was a good entry level??! I got cute wating for a few more pennies on the downside. BUT let's see if I still get a 2nd chance to enter my APOL 55c at a price I am happy with-- market usually offers them IF we are...

AAPL sold all Feb 7250p @ 2.80-310 (+approx 8 x 1.95) :D :D I figure AAPL is "likley" to hold 70 level - so puts at expiry will have 2.50 intrinsic - and 75p would be maxed out - on the other hand IF aapl rises then 7250p may be -0- at expiry IF AAPL is pinned @ 75 strike - so why...

AAPL figured it was going lower today - said on my other Journal I was entering front month calls "against my bias". short front 75c/75p (straddle) @ 5.125 + feb 7250p (will sell more 7250p @ 2.80-3/roll into mar 70p) + mar 70p will watch to see if it reverses and closes hgiher...
