Bot 3 SPY $113 Puts @ $1
Expiration 11/24
HTZ -45% On Watch
Currently $19.89 with lod at $17.20...
Nice find!
Wouldn't mind some $40 options but doubt they are liquid enough...
Picked up GENE today
On the higher side ($1.58) but looks good aside from horribly low volume (25,000 shares traded by 2pm!).
First pincher in a while so hopefully get some beginners luck.
I really like the way the RSI/MACD look, and has somewhat of a bottom in at $1.50, and of course decent pinch with lines starting to diverge:
I like GENE best from your list.
Might get some before market close...!
Yes - Staying away from that one.
Not too familiar with VXX but was under the impression that it is basically inverse the market....IE if the market is way down VXX goes up...
Well...Dow Average is down 40 and S&P is down a few points...But VXX is not green...It is setting new lows!
Isn't announcement at 8pm est?
So puts at 3:59 lol
I'm out (moving too slow)...
very tiny gain ($20 after fees)...Trading very indecisively.
Nice - hopefully works out for us.
My options expire Friday so I'm out even if it is slightly up/down today.
Most likely anyway...I don't necessarily think AAPL is going to go to $100 - just seen a gap at that price...
But...It's performed very well since summer. +30% since end of June ($91 to $118). Maybe time to go other way?
Realistically, I don't think it is unreasonable for AAPL to test the 50 day moving average ($111 as of today), but who knows.
I just seen tech doing great yesterday and AAPL barely clinging onto a 1/2% gain...Only reason I got puts.
Those are overnight changes?
Google goes up 2% and that is the reaction you get????
I make the insane bet of $120 Netflix calls when Netflix is @ $100...By miraculous luck Netflix does indeed go up 20% overnight...And I barely see a 5X gain!!!
Google up 2% and the options go up 10X-20X? Very nice but why is that?
In AAPL $117 puts @ $0.39
Expiration 4 days...Looks like it might close negative on the day...!
Last $117.97 (+.42 for the day with Dow up 85 points)
AAPL Looks Weak
At high of day right now ($118.20) but barely up a half of a percent with the Dow up 100 points.
Looking at the $117 puts that expire Friday (last price $0.35)
RSI is tapping the 70 line...It's got a little bit of a double top @ the $118.50 price from about a week ago...
NFLX $114 / $120 calls
I bought these yesterday at $1.00 and $0.54.
They closed yesterday @ $0.85 and $0.415
Currently they are at $4.82 and $1.21...
I was hoping these would be 10 baggers but looks like about a 5X and 3X.
Still holding for NFLX to run over $120.
***I am new to options and will be looking for some good trades. I will be monitoring this board very closely!!!
I only used $150 total on this options gamble due to the high risk.
I bought $114 and $120 call options NFLX...
Only risking $150 total on a gamble...1 @ $1.00 and 1 @ $0.50
The $105s were at $3.50 so 1 of those would have cost me $350...And is buying $105 calls really the more conservative bet (risking $350 instead of $150)? Everything is going to zero if report is bad anyways...
Anticipating these being worthless tomorrow but loving the chart so couldn't resist...
Call Spread on Netflix for Earnings
They report on Monday after hours I think...
Anyone trading it? How do I do a call spread!?
I'm either doing a small amount of $105 calls or $110...I suspect a jump.
SRPT also ($11.xx)
IONS $35 RDUS $30.51 Pharma Pinchers
Nice! I've been watching the pharmaceuticals for a while as they've been totally hammered this year.
Here are some one's that swing $5 on an average nothing-going-on day:
BLUE (also pinching but already PPO/ADX diverging and not the greatest pinch)
IONS
RDUS (another big swinger - can easily go up 20% in a day)
KITE (weak pinch but another huge swinger)
The only one pinching as good as JUDO is RDUS (check it out!) but I also like IONS.
ACAD looks really good...Might switch from ZINC (was looking at opening a small position in ZINC) to ACAD. Volume on the options look really low though.
Do you think this can/will still pop in pincher fashion (+100-200%) despite chapter 11 filing? Pincher looks very strong picture perfect technical setup...
In POT September $32 calls
Last $30.44
Calls @ 80 cents
