I'll be brief, $150 by the next week.

Yup. I'll be watching Monday to open a new position...hopefully around the 148.50 mark.

No, still going strong.

Did you stay open over the weekend?

If AAPL doesn't close above 147.5 by EOD, anything can happen next week. Its one to keep a close eye on.

+1

Yes, still long AAPL and short FB.

I gotta ask.... why would you short Facebook?

Poor earnings and just barely hanging on at $150. I have a short call against my investment position.

Poor earnings? What made the earnings poor? Quality, growth, growth forecast...?

The same reason the market is shorting it.

Tone here still bullish with strong 2-3 day accumulation pattern. Friday close at the high exactly what bulls want to see...

I did pick this one back up this morning...but didn't think I'd need my computer for a fast market. Did it on the phone. :banghead:

Left 0.40 on the table before my order (May 19 145 call) filled with a market order at 5.19.

Still a very good winner so far.
