LOL

I have to agree with you and zdreg. selling naked penny puts and calls is not wise at all. No delta but loaded with volatility.

Thanks for observing my trades. You are right. Those trades are a part of my complex trades. They are a kind of covered by my long 18 Calls. I am squeezing the profit by getting some money by selling naked calls 17 since my 18 calls will expire worthless.

For those who are nagging about commission and canecllation fees in IB. Check out my orders today and see how much I paid for commission. If you can find any broker that charges less than 20% more than IB, let me know and I will send you a $1000 check and leave IB in a heartbeat. Remember your...

As of now 2:15, I believe semi is a buy again. that correction is done. Buying list ADI @ 35.40, SMH @ 30.87. ADI will announce numbers next week.

Log call 20 can be more rewarding but shorting put has more chance to be profitable. Anyway, Today is a hard proof that you should get into YHOO. There is absolutely no stock in my list that is green except YHOO. YHOO has also pulled back from it AH high but I believe the condition is temporary...

Based on AH action, this prediction is quite plausible.

what is going on? The bid is 16.45 and ask is 16.10 !!!! in IB.

I don't do that trade either. That is too speculative but sometimes those trades pan out and if you do it a good size, will turn around your financial life.

Happy BD :) A good speculative trade on YHOO: Buy 18-19 Nov 18 Call spread for a debit of 5 cents. If YHOO goes above 19 by Nov 18 because of a buyout, your 5 cents would be $1. An increase of 2000% You have to pay about 1.5 commission so you are actually paying 6.5 cents. 10...

My prediction is that we hould see 17 by Friday 11/11/11 which is weekly option expiry day if no deal happens till then.

Up 2% in pre-market. Rumor is that Facebook also might be interested. BBC TV on financial section: some European companies also have an eye on YHOO.

I am bullish through shorting PUTs. I have over 200 contracts naked PUT 15 and 16 for Nov and Dec. I am a kind of protecting myself this way. I know many people would disagree with me. If there is a buyout of say $30, I will get only my Puts premiums. I believe the best strategy is Jan 2012 rist...

AH on Friday there were lots of news that it seems the deal is imminent. Considering recent stock's price drop because of two factors (1- market drop and 2- a rumor last week that yhoo might consider other avenues than selling) I believe it is wise to go long YHOO this week based on recent news.

Someone should tell the Greek people beggers cannot be choosers.

After considering all the facts and reviewing the earnings, I believe semi stocks may have topped in short term and we might see some 3-5% correction. SMH at 32.43 Time : 2PM Friday 11/28

I admit. I have been wrong manay many times.

Looking back, I guess I was right. Again.:cool:

I am enjoying this rally and I was predicting it but looking at the low volume, I want to say this rally should be a crap. Maybe volume will come in the coming days but so far I think it is a sell signal but I don't have the conviction to short.
