Heads up - FB earnings, Wednesday Nov 04. TSLA and PCLN also on deck.

[Eddiemorra]

I didn't make any FB trades today. Looking at the chart now, I can't see any trades that i'd have taken with the possible exception of shorting the failure near the high.
Anyone here take any trades that can be seen on the chart?

It's all about krushing the options - Cash cow

I have decided to make this my last post on ET, too much time spent posting and replying. But I will still drop-in to read posts in my favorite forums - Options, Stocks and Trading.

FB UPDATE: I'm very bullish on FB and think it could easily jump 12% ($115.00+) after earnings - my goal is to buy the 108 -110 weekly calls before earnings. I will not be updating this thread.









NOT IN SERVICE

Both calls went off worthless, and were never profitable after FB's report. Good call.

Re: Nov06 weekly FB calls strikes 108, 109 and 110.
Expired worthless: True
Never profitable after FB's report: False

Take a look at the 1-week chart of those calls. All were profitable after FB's report, I bought the 108 calls for $0.95 before earnings and sold at $1.70 after.

I don't have access to my old account and I am winding down my participation on ET.

But stalker destriero's post was inaccurate and should be corrected. Most of ET members are option illiterate and unfortunately would have taken destriero's post as fact.

You'r welcome to your opinion of course, but I think he is spot on about you. For one, you claim to profit from exclusively buying weekly expiration OTM options, particularly for ER week. That's just nuts. And I dabble heavily in long near dated OTM stuff.

I also point out the fact he called you out correctly and detected your new identity, which you have now confirmed, so on a credibility scale of you to 10, he's about a ten. Why don't you just "wind" on down outta here. Selling yourself as a Guru knowing what you do seems a bit reckless.

OTM-Options, why in the world are you changing alias's but simply that you are embarASSed from some dopey call?

man up and be wrong, then improve

Nothing dopey about my call. Not as profitable as I had hoped but it was still profitable. What do you think of donnap's pre-earnings FB trade?


Link to trade

• +3 Nov.13 106C@2.43
• -2 Nov.6 104C@2.97

FYI ........ The short Nov06 104 calls took some heat after earnings and was trading in the $5.00+ range. That position is underwater. Perhaps donnap could chime in with an update.
