Good morning, you're braver/better than me
I've had no luck with energy at all. I did have some moderate success with UGAZ not long ago, but I can't be around for every tick recently which is what those ETNs require in my experience.
Good luck on that one!
Good morning Wildbilly I'm going to wait until after earnings. I like this company most of all the coal/nat gas ones though FWIW

I normally don't post/lament over charts that got away (missed this bottom buster up cycle), but I'm pondering this one for channel drop.
Hesitant based on less options volume/open interest than I'd like, but someone took 20 Apr 11P @ 0.30, which by my calculations is spot on estimated intrinsic based on 3 previous down cycles. If it drops to channel bottom support, there'd be a ~double gross profit movement...

Good Morning charger The activity here has dwindled down quite a bit from the past 5 years. domain311 decided to concentrate on his business a while back-- he certainly has been missed as I learned a few techniques from his sharing.

So this is where my buddies are hanging out.
Can't believe you have domain311 as a mod on here,
He was ruling the pincher board like 4 years ago.
Boardmarked!
You're welcome Sam-- really hope it turns out well for you! Albeit a short session Friday didn't get the buy volume conviction one would like to see, the Money Flow chart looks hopeful for tomorrow's session.
GLTU
3 out of 4 ain't bad MassP-- congrats I work with the chart as much as I can-- but I am like you in a desire to close trades within a few sessions. I do have a time cap on the options trades although I have rolled a few losing positions to gain more time. If I have shares, I have more leeway and can hold for a few months though (i.e. I am in F since the end of August)
Continued good luck to you
Thanks my Friend!
Thanks for your Huge Help to figure out the Pinch Issues on DROP.
Really Appreciate you taking the time to do all that.
Big Sam
Thank you Jimmenknee. I closed my short trades on TSLA, NFLX and GPRO. GPRO went against me. BABA has not started yet for long trade. May be on Friday or Monday I will enter long on BABA. I trade short term swings, may be 2-4 days maximum in a trade. Day trade I find very hard. How do you trade?
Yuck sorry Sam The good news is that the Money Flow 3 cycle out is bottoming. The Money Flow rules I follow WRT OTC stocks (FTR I only sparsely trade them anymore):
--Watch MFI 21 push up threw the 50 line. This is the realm of "smart money." Setup is MFI 21 > 50.
--Then the next MFI 3 cycle up begins the P&D clock if CMF 3 (ask slappers AKA retail) is also up and 5,15,0 PVO (volume) flips w/ buy volume causing the increase.
--ChiOsc (money momentum) needs to either be green or begin to move to green.
More detailed explanation of Money Flow TA here: #msg-72504953
In DROP's case, I don't know what is causing drop as I have only scanned the board briefly. If you compare this movement with the last Pincher setup in May, you might have to wait through a few false starts
The other Money Flow indicator to "watch for" is Raw money flow. Some brokerages have the indicator available on its charts, Bigcharts.com has it too but Stockcharts.com does not. I use Raw money flow for intraday monitoring on five down to one minute charts.
Hey Jimmenknee, Need your advice. I left a message on the Pincher board.
Also, I am grabing Nov 28 SLV 16. Calls, should get there easily and I picked them up around .08 and .09.
Big Sam
I cant post private messages for some reason.
Very nice MassP Do you trade short-term cycles? I like BABA's positioning for a long trade and the other 3's downturn looks to be decelerating FWIW
(Save for NFLX duly noting an analyst downgrade this morning)
@jimmenknee, Thank You very much. Currently I am Short NFLX, TSLA, GPRO and looking to go long BABA

BB Pincher is a TA Setup looking for a turn/bounce off the lower-BB. Key TA is compression/release of:
(1.) %B (thru EMA 5)
(2.) ADX 3 downturn
Also;
(3.) TRIX 3 movement up thru TRIX 7 (key to confirm)
(4.) CMF 3 up thru signal line
(5.) The Aroons (8) to be moving in the right direction (for ultimate green-red crossover)
(6.) Inverted MACD calibrated to previous BB Pincher confirmations for MACD green-red crossover
Thank you MassP and welcome I have 4 different long chart setups: default (has both Money Flow and Standard TA indicators); "Bottom Buster" (borrowed from charger); Bollie Pincher (Bollinger Band chart looking for bounce off bottom BB); and the Standard Pincher (ADX/PPO chart that comes from the Pincher board).
I'll try to fit your picks into 1 of these setups. Are you long on these (shares/options) or looking to get into a position?
@jimmenknee, I like your charts. When you have some time, could you please post NFLX, TSLA, BABA and GPRO charts. Many Thanks in advance.

I've come to the conclusion that being willing to take smaller gains in options (but still comparatively larger than share gains) in this market helps to maintain a nice win % (> 80%). I also like ITM options because the premium to intrinsic gap is narrower and the probability of worthless expiration decreases.
(DVN looks like it wants to run into the close )
I was up 80%+ this early morning Jimmy on DVN. I was trying to put my a sell in and the market started to fade away. I stalled on the sell because I stopped to think "wait this is up 80% right now this could be one of the big ones that options can be." Lesson don't think so much. Take it and run.
ah gotcha-- nice call on the weekly chart Jan 65C on the bid looks like a steal @ 1.60
I am playing DVN . LL looks like it technically broke into that gap already. I like the inverse head and shoulders that has formed over the last month which is breaking the neckline. The weekly chart shows the pinch with the PPS resting on the 200 day moving average for support.
Thanks for the alert/chart interloper I had let LL off my watch during the flat recovery. I like the company and the options volume is decent enough. Are you looking for a gap break?

DVN in Nov 28 $67 C @ .90
DVN I like this one due to it breaking above recent R of $65.00
