    Option trade idea on YHOO

    So far my prediction looks good. YHOO opened at 16.70 and peaked at 15.75 and now it is trading at 15.59. It should drop more. FYI : I am short 49000 shares of YHOO.

    I correct myself from " the last good day.." to "one of the good days...". My previous post showed a kind of urgent rush to jumprt band vagon whih is not wise. You should trade when you are confident and calm and should not rush.

    Your post seems that you are disagreeing with me but actually you are saying the same thing. YHOO made profits but it was almost the same as the last quarter.

    Option trade idea on YHOO

    B the way, my price target to cover is 15.90 to 16.10. Expect for an at least 50 cents correction. YHOO is not a $14 stock but the current price is also overvalued.
