5 point range on the "bonus" and it barely touched 73. So what are we to do? Buy every penny on the way down to 68? The shares are below your 77.6 entry, so talking about a 79 cover is worthless. A stop loss almost 14 POINTS under your initial buy, with adds all along the way, and a profit...

Yeah, a massive 1% stake in the co.

That was a quant on reaching a big figure, but it was very hard to buy in light of a >5MM unit miss on the iPhone and fraudulent reporting of sales out of China Mobile.

"For the want of an eighth the kingdom was lost" Sucks to miss PCLN on the quant-buy (25 higher on the gap). ES was never close (4 pts off my long entry) and now up 9. AAPL filled, but not a good trade even in light of the $5/share gain.

sure you are, bro.

Out AAPL 509.12 avg.

..... Baller!

Anna, what's Surf's new handle? Congrats on the baby.

Yeah, I was simply proposing a preferable risk. The AAPL 2-lot fly structuring was a $2500 risk against $5000 in shares. I bot some stock at 503.88 in a retirement account, but I am nearly flat mkt here other than a large GOOG bear position in an OPM account. I am personally long ICPT from ~281...

lol no. I have a "China Mobile" thread where I state that China Mobile released bogus numbers on the iPhone pre-order. Obviously I would not be long into the release of the forward look. I don't take price-bets into earnings, only vola. I did go long just under 504 in the AH, but I was simply...

No, just stating (the opposite) that it's a house of cards. I am long (small) from 504. The China Mobile pre-order number was outright fraud.

Where? wtf did you mention $500 on AAPL? Mods, please delete this asswipe.

High probability of a short-term bounce on ES in the overnight/tomorrow's session. Buying: 67.25 ES PCLN 1136.18 AAPL 503.88, limit buys on all.

Fixed it for you.

Where are you on the record shorting AAPL? Your broker lets you short AAPL with less than a $2k account?

Much better off in the Feb7 50/00/50 call fly at <$13 premium. Better than a double at 575 in two days.

I was long some backspreads and bear verts which are gone now. The largest positions remain intact (Numerous flies, asyms and calendars out as late as Jan15 struck at 1050 (neutrality)). Up ~20% on those.

Yeah, I am looking for the GOOG apologists. I wonder where they at?

(edit) 1082 last. Down >7% in a week.

Oh shit, they disregarded key support?!
