TWTR - Earnings this Monday October 27. Buy OTM Oct31 calls on Monday

UPDATE

  • TWTR at $48.65
  • Earnings October 27 (today after market close)
  • Bought 1 contract TWTR Oct31 56.00 Call at 0.96
  • TWTR price target after earnings $60.00+

  • FB at $80.30
  • Earnings October 28 (tomorrow after market close)
  • Bought 1 contract FB Oct31 85.00 Call at $0.95
  • FB price target after earnings $90.00+


The TWTR trade is one of my more aggressive option trades at 16% OTM and a price target of plus 24%, my plan is to close the TWTR position on Tuesday October 28. I have also entered a FB earnings trade, my plan is to close the FB position on Wednesday October 29.

I'm still Very Bullish on the Nasdaq / QQQ and since Facebook and Twitter are the #1 and #2 most popular social networking sites they could be the catalyst to push the markets higher.


:)

Only thing QQQ gives a shit about is AAPL and Feds with the exception of MSFT who already reported, rest are very small components.
 
FB matters a bit more but the TWAT is nowhere to be found.

You guys are too focused on the losing trades, keep in mind that "Losing is part of winning-- only true noobs don't get this".
