Options Think Tank

[Toofuzzy]

Well it would help if someone could understand what you wrote.

-90 is not a price.

Then there are bid ask spreads.

I have no idea if you are talking price swings all in one day or not.

Did Robinhood screw me over again?

I have about 12 months experience in stocks. I tried options with Hertz and was successful. I was wondering if anybody could break this down for me. I know theres more to it but in my brain calls=up puts=down.

I unfortunately sold my AMC shares at 5$ for profit. Then bought a put when it went up so much.

AMC current 14.10
AMC $9.00 Put 1/29 minimum 1.34per share
AMC 16.00 my contract was -350
AMC 14.50 my contract was -70
AMC 13.65 -180
AMC 13.00 my contract WAS -1400 (ZERO)

Then amc went up to 14.00 and I sold at -10 wondering if I had selected a wrong with the options. Another weird thing is Robinhood hovered on 13ish for 5 minutes while webull showed it as low as 12.00. My contract also showed +980 for few seconds...

Can someone let me know if I got hosed? I was staring at my phone the entire time watching it.

Is it possible to watch a large option trader and copy what he does to make profit?
If you follow his every step, will you get same result?

[Toofuzzy]

Does anyone use Option Income Engine by Bill Poultus of Profit Run to pick options?

How long have you used it?

What kind of returns have you had?

Were the returns consistent or erratic?

Anyone alive here?

For this coming week, looking for buyable dips in Z (support at 80) CLVS (under 55) and GEOS (support at 80)

All three can move well and with futures looking like they do now, we just may see some of those dips realize

MSTR looking for 100+ next week

ALXN bouncing off the 50day. Would be a good entry point around 106 for calls

WPRT, bounce may not yet be ready, have a position in oct. 31 calls, 2 calls, so room to average down, and better trade then ISRG, closer to itm options with a better delta, just need the chart to setup better before adding to my postion.

[alexed]

ISRG,did bounce, but my oct. 500 calls with the low delta, moved little, should have played weeklys closer to itm, but now the bounce may not occur? I have little hope for now, and looking at turning my mess into a credit spread.

still holding PSA july 155c from 85c. could have sold for 1.5 bagger. heavy vol yesterday and a nice bounce. a recent upgrade and market cooperation can push this past 155 in the coming week

Morning Scandle vn on VRTX and NFLX-- I haven't figured out how to trade islands

Was looking at RNF calls this morning; but the options are very light (R:R seems decent [based on support/resistance) but only vol in 27.50Cs are June's).

(I've also stayed away from precious metals since I strung together a few bad trades in Feb; can't seem to find a bottom?)
