YHOO has recovered early losses of today and is almost flat now. Considering the fact that GOOG is down over 4%, YHOO stood up well today.

I made 22K on selling PUTs and covered calls on YHOO on just December. I am bullish on YHOO but I don't buy calls. I sell puts and then if I get assigned, I sell covered call. I was doing this on 15 strike price a couple of months ago but I switched to 16 as the price went up. I have a little...

I was on vacation. I am doing good by selling PUTs. I am not expecting YHOO to go to $30. $17 to $22 is the probable range.

I see no selling pressure. This might cause the buyers and traders to jump in and commit themselves to shares. These are just my thoughts and observations.

YHOO has ben down for 3 days and the close on Friday was 15.52. The drop was the reaction to the new CEO. I believe that YHOO will start going up to 16.30 in 5 days. Time to trade the stock or buy some calls or sell PUTs.

If you are following the news, you should come to the conclusion that YHOO's sell deal should be very close. I believe it should be by the end of 2011 or max by Jan 2012. The deal price should be between $20-$25 (much less than $33 offer of Microsoft in 2008). That makes trading YHOO very...

Were turkies sold this year infected with cracks? I see everyone is high. I don't see any problem in the market.

Hi Turkeyneck, HFT trading is not an edge. It is a kind of strategy that you might lose or win. To clearly explain it, let's put it this way. HFT traders are like very professional basketball players. Not all professional basketball teams win. A professional basketbal tea,m competes with...

Up 58% for the year. Was up 67% a week ago. Down 9% in 401K since it is mostly managed by mutual fund experts !!. I trade options and my strategies are naked call, nake put and risk reversal. Thats it. My trading tip: keep it simple. My only position is YHOO. Loaded with naked PUTs...

Congratulations for your success.

My account is loaded with short 15 and 16 PUTs for December. Not to mention with shorts 15 and 16 PUTs November which I hope expire worthless.

More buying rumoros are hitting the street. deal should come in 2011. We have about 45 days but I expect it happen sooner.

You made a good point. My prediction was based on gut feeling. I expected the market to go up today and it started like that in the future but it turned around and I don't see any reason for that except profit taking or contrarian traders that should reverse as we get close end of today.

Futures were up last night and then in the morning they became red and now the market is all in red territory. S&P was down over 0.8% at some point. Something is telling me we should have a reversal at the end and market should close green. I know this thread might have no value but I believe it...

I agree

Many people complain about IB auto liquidation. For me, if IB gets rid of autoliquidation, I will run awy from IB in a second. I have been autoliquidated many times but that has saved my ass big time. If you are against autoliquidation, just fund your account beforehand or trade smaller. I...
