I'm buying calls
- Thread starter stock_trad3r
- Start date
Hey Stock, I plan on cashing out on these calls at the same time you do so please post accordingly. I will also allocate some money to GOOG and RIMM (i'm leaving AAPL alone for now) but was wondering what to do with the rest. I followed you into these stocks last year:
MOS
V
BIDU
RIMM
AAPL
CLR
PCX
CLF
and am down quite a bit. Are you averaging down on these or have you moved on? Any thoughts?

If anyone bought those stocks tough shit. I lost money, too. Not much more say.
If this goes according to plan I'll recover all the gains I would have had IF I sold in July/August. That is the goal. To recoup paper profits and recover from the MOS loss from not selling at $150 last year when I SHOULD have.
Futures are holding up very well
these gains won't be erased so easily thats for sure.
Dow 8,178.00 85.00 1.05

Hey Stock, no reason to be rude (the 'tough shit' comment wasn't necessary, I'm only asking). Anyways, I think our entry points were different since I'm down quite a bit on these stocks (and I'm not even talking about missing the high in August) since I bought them (although I thought my entry couldn't have been much different from yours since the stocks hadn't traded much lower prior to your post).
Anyhow, keep up the good work. Hoping to get back to even by summer or at the latest the end of the year. Like I said, please keep the posts coming.
No more laughing about "all the putz that bought puts"???Quote from stock_trad3r:If this goes according to plan I'll recover all the gains I would have had IF I sold in July/August. That is the goal.

You will no go through the hard lesson of learning that its much harder to gain 100% just in order to get back to break even after letting a 10% loss become a 50% loss.
10% loss = 11% gain needed
50% loss = 100% gain needed
80% loss = 400% gain needed

how much did you lose?
You will make 6K on your BIG trade..
how much did you lose buying those POS stocks being a perma bull idiot?
If it's any help Poh, I was down over 70% at one point (no leverage thank goodness. I was going to bet the farm when he first posted the list, but even the best traders slip up once in a while.) Since my entry must have been pretty close to stocktrad3r's entry, I gotta think he felt the same level of heat. Still down over 40% on the list, but hoping some more stocktrad3r tips will right the ship. Cheers!
Sorry for the rudeness. The pain is mutual.
I fell for the $200 oil hype and the 'global food shortage' that was suppose to entail limitless upside for commodities and commodity related stocks.

My spy 85 calls will be met easily and the 90 ones are gonna surge big time @ the open. This fucking sweet. Glad I didn't sell last Friday. Maybe the markets will surge 4% or more tommorow. First time doing this, too. No risk management here. No hedging. No stops. Go hard or go home, losers.
