They published data that could put them on top of the fight against Multiple Sclerosis. They are too small to take it all the way to market without big time help though.
I see it as a long term stock play that I hope to flip a few times to accumulate a decent free ride over time.
I thought the same thing about MNKD and that didn't go so well... Splat...! Still watching it although they intend to milk shareholders as much as possible
IMO

Getting ready to load up on VXX puts if I can't find a good reason not to...
GE puts still cookin...

RAD no doubt that chart is all systems go...
Good to hear from u mate.
Check out TGTX.. Looks like they have strong MS data. May take it a while to get to market but I like it...
Didn't you mention FSLR a while back? 52wk high today...
And those AMZN calls OMG I passed on the 980 calls last week...
Ugh
C'mon TV. Grab that coffee and
Let's
Get
Motivated !
Woooooo....
LoL
Cashing in on most of the vxx puts here. Gonna reevaluate after the 1030 shift change.
GLTA

LoL It dang sure did...
No doubt. Played it both ways today. Most excellent times...
Couldn't help myself... VXX puts...
TGTX looks interesting. ..
LOL I want to carpe some freakin VXX puts so bad. Think I'll wait to see what tomorrow brings though. Not sure the SPY 254.50 is gonna hold. May test 253.80 if not.
VXX beast mode activate...
VXX is on fire this morning...
Wow... Just freakin wow...
How awesome is this crew and how many trials in such a short time the Mates here have endured...
Guys, I honestly have no words that can describe my condolence...
My wish and prayers have not changed.
This group will aceive what it set forth to accomplish. I have no doubt...
In time, we Will carpe the freakin diems and we WILL honor those we've lost with huge light in the night and dance...
Man dang. So sorry to hear that mate. I know first hand what you are going thru.
Let us know if there is anything u need and do take the time for you and yours.
We'll be here for you when you return.
Wow... SPY, DIA, QQQ aanndd VXX green.
WTF is that all about...
GE... getting taken to the woodshed this week.
Puts => $
VXX surprised by it's staying power. Might have to start calling him Bubba.
There is a good chance they will send gold on a gap up morning Thursday. The overall trend for gold looks to be down right now though, so I'm not sure I want to gamble on it. Who knows though. I am chronic that way at times
I see the ECB is scheduled for 7:45am Thursday. Could be a crazy open that morning depending on the language they use to say how they are going to ease up on the whole "proping up the market" thing that everyone has been into.
Looking for something fresh to trade today. Stocks im watching look to be making a shift... Gonna give them a minute more.

...Reloading VXX puts that is... Definitely not SPY...
Thursday central bank talk could rattle markets a bit though. One to watch VXX calls for a quick scalp IMO.

GM Sand. I had given up on DOLV as well. I literally waited months for that and had even taken it off watch. Sam's alert was a perfectly timed reminder.
Crazy day at SPY yesterday. End of day was awesome for reloading November puts. I'll likely be selling most of those this morning to lock in profits, but looking to add on any significant move up. Markets are just so beast mode it's hard to beleive...

GM Cap'n.
Got the kid in the Dr office for strep. Booo...
Taking a quick look around while we wait.
I should be around later. I'll sing out if I see anything looking good.
GL today crew

VXX puts have been very consistent $ for quite some time. I find it odd that no one talks about it...
CREE testing our 100ma
I saw the same thing. Nuts... Looks like it wants to close green.

I saw mm ascm shorting it today and stayed away. He is one deep pocket and ruthless mf'r...
Still on watch though
I found it as it was breaking 32. I had to run out so I didn't play it.
Checked in on it just before noon and face-palm...
Dang... Who dropped the TWNK
MTBC just left the launch pad
MU looking good also
CREE is a machine today.
OMG. I gotta ease up on the rum...
LoL
Nice...
I had to fly to Seattle a while back and I always board the plane last. I hate dealing with everyone trying to get settled and I travel light so it's not a problem for me.
I grab my adventure team bag and get my swag on to my seat and find the hotest chick ever in my window. No way I was telling her to relocate so I can have the window right..
I start stashing my bag under the seat in front if me and break out my tablet, phone, charger cables and testing what I have to work with. Of course I don't bring up my stocks but go straight to the NASDAQ $ gain list. LoL
I log in to stock charts and run a scan.
Hit the big board news and be sure she can see the headlines.
It's Delta so I start my display and bring up fox news and a few seconds later start googling tax reform update... blah blah blah.
Gotta vet them with the fox... Even if u agree u gotta pfft and shake your head to see if they smirk... Tail tell...
Time for take off...
We accelerate and, being a people watcher, I like to see the reaction of people around me when I raise both hands and go Woooo... when we start climbing.
Anyway...
I start princes bride and don't bother with the head set. I know all if the scenes by heart...
We settle in and I ask her what she would like before I get my jack and coke...
She just wants water, damnit, so I'm good, nothing for me thanks.
I ask if she is flying to Seattle for business or pleasure. She says business. She is speaking at a conference.
Oh yeah? I'm interested...
What's the conference?
No shit... Sexual confidence for women
WTF?????
Working IT and having years of pizza delivery experience during college, I have a thought or two that are totally pro babe in the workplace...
I asked what her topic was and she went off on how she was a sexologist and how a person's nationality and cultural upbringing can be used to predict their sexual prowess.
Dude!! I was totally stoked...
According to this super hot chick that obviously had no problem conducting research into the matter, there is some legit shit there.
I couldn't even begin to tell you what she said for the next 5 freakin hours. I tried so hard to look interested in what she was saying, but those boobs and tight pants made it too easy for me to look in her eyes, then down a bit and down more and nod with a serious consideration type expression. I was focusing more on not giving away my inner thoughts as much as anything...
Hard work....
Long story short though, she says, not blacks, but Native Americans are the most well endowed. And forget the French, Jews are the most attentive lovers. And the one I already knew, rednecks last longer in bed. Duh!
Then ding ding ding, time to land, fasten seat belts we're goin in hot...
Then I realize I never got her name. She asks me mine...
I gently grab her hand and say..Squanto Berkowitz but my friends call me Bubba
My bad... thought u were talking BTGI. Got it mixed with other posts and pennies I was following today. Crazy times...
G
Stuff like that happens when u play pennies. This board and many of it's crew have had very similar experiences. When u slap the V twins, they take a step back. Slap them again and a new mm joins them. He'll sell short all day for u mate. The V twins drop the hammer and he covers. The company debt holder gets his cash and the short cover...
OTC 101...
I've been wanting to create a filter for my scans that will include only stocks with a relatively tight option spread. This is the preliminary list containing stocks with significant open interest. I still need to go through them to check the spreads but these should be relatively tight. Ultimately I would like the list to include only stocks with 5, maybe 10% spread at most. Since there are near 650 symbols here, it may take a while, but its a start...

Not recently. I did a straddle a while back on SNAP. It crashed. The calls tanked and the puts didn't move. I haven't played a straddle or spread since then.
I like the bull call spread though. Where you buy a call at strike or one higher and sell a call significantly higher. That has worked for me in the past, but you have to have the cash to do the deal if the contract you sold is executed.
Almost always, I am trying to get in and out same day, take the money and run. Rinse and repeat...
EXEL bounce off our 100ma? Let's see...
Missed the XLF puts this morning. Read interesting info on increasing defaults and such, then got distracted...
