$HPQ has its ER after hours 2/24/15. The chart has been showing weakness in the current uptrend. Analysts place pps targets at $40-$47, with the pps ending at $38.37 2/23/15. News of HP's entry into cloud computing has some analysts saying this will be an ER beat reported.

It takes time to find decent option trading volume and ER catalysts that will net larger than usual pps moves.

$DE missed ER expectations 2/20/15 but is still trying to uptrend.

$CRTO earnings release was 2/19/15 and it beat expectations. Calls on my mid-term radar.

$SPY 2/18/15 thoughts: http://instagram.com/p/zPnBJMK-zz/
$SPY looks to follow the trend that occurred 2/10- down and then possibly up. The 5-day chart shows overbought with candles starting to fall end of day 2/10. The 6-month chart shows buy signals and if the pps can rise above the $206.50 and $208.50 resistance lines then a bullish uptrend will result.
ER misses hit hard and on watch for reversal:
$ANFI
$BIOC
$COUP
$DF
$UWTI took a good fall this AM but looks to be ready for recersal.

One of the first go to ETFs I've been taught to trade is $SPY. Go Google research the $SPY and you'll find it is one of the highest volume option traded ETFs, as well what an ETF and SPY even are.
Technical analysis can aid in determining the $SPY's next trend. Below is a 6-month free chart from stockcharts.com with my favorite chart overlay and indicator mix. I trade, research and analyze exclusively via mobile. I've learned to analyze while presenting charts via mobile apps. Stay awhile and see the possibilities :).
The SPY has been trading in a sideways price channel almost predictably the past month. Traders can harness gains within this mini volatile period by buying when the pps hits the green line and selling when it hits the red. Movements above or below the lines can signal new trends. Which way do you think the pps will go next week?
A glimpse of the SPY's top ten holdings...
The 90/90/90 Rule
Understanding that 90% of new traders lose 90% of their new trading account value in 90 days is important. It helps a new trader grasp accepting loss while being cautious to get TE gains. Trading options is very risky and knowing some risk mitigation can be key to not losing 90% quickly. If a trader does lose 90% then it would take 900% in gains to break even.

I've started a TDAmeritrade paper trading account to track Pricelessprofits suggested option trades.
The suggestions were documented via Instagram for my HighLo profile.
Swing Trading Goals:
1) Trade no more than 20% of account value per trade. When starting at $500-$1,000 account value trades of 30% may be needed to accelerate balance due to fees per trade.
2) Sell at 20% loss unless chart shows estimated trend still possible.
3) Trade option expiration at least 3-4 weeks out. Monthly expys are goal.
4) Trade based on technical analysis of overbought or oversold, or earnings strategy (trade before and/or through ER).
Start: $1,000.00-> $969.00 2/6/15 balance if all sold. TDA paper trading account has $100,000 in margin showing no matter the account balance. Options aren't traded with margin.
