Hey Farooq, thanks for your call, I'm trying to catch up.
See my post here today 31969. I'll be busy on another task next hour.
Hi Farooq. Thanks. Try 432-694-5746. Had internet (phones) trouble for a couple of weeks as well. Now all new lines and modem.

Delated post, executed 9:05. Modest position.
Thanks Beer.
Other problems, now all okay.
Re the computers, both. Major fix on the 5 year old Dell Windows 7 and new Dell XPS Win 10, tons of memory and speed. Both running slick with no hiccups. A modest hiccup in my leukemia, but not worth worrying about. I'm doing most of what I want to, bicycling and upper body weights. Good to go, 89 and forecast for five more years.
I have been trading lightly for a couple of weeks, but not posting until today.
Tip toed into some FB puts this morning. Are you surprised? Naw!

SPX 60-minute shows Chaiken Osc has been steeply down since Thursday opening, divergent from stronger stocks.
Not to be ignored. This combination has been a reliable reversal signal often.

smartone. Good morning.
When you delete or change a post, how about just posting to delete and then another post for a replacement.

Hi BigRed7. Thanks for your question. Three of us are or have mostly been trading on this board for a few years. Beerworld, smartone and me, Roy
Each of us employ some combination of technical analysis and news. I am 99% technical. Each of us is pretty well acquainted with the general trading notions of the others, sometimes getting useful clues so we watch each others' trading, if we have time. Many other maybe wannabe traders happen by from time to time, and we are interested and attempt to be helpful. Always courteous.
I trade most days, I'd say 18 days, at least a little, out of two weeks. Often I attempt 2 or three or up to, say half a dozen scalp attempts in each session. Captured a BIDU puts scalp earlier this morning for 2.06 x. That ratio means the sale result divided by the cost of entry. Right now I see that I stopped out of FB Dec 2, 120 FB puts (while out for medical) at 2.68 x. Unusual to get a couple of doubles and nothing else into the last hour. Thanks very much he says. Beerworld is by far the best trader here, but he has to limit his comments in the interest of his own work.
Out for Chemo this week. May not be back before the close today.
Stop on the remaining FB puts is set.

smartone, your question as to when I bought BIDU 179 puts.
My regular procedure is to post a sale as a reply to the bought post, shown on the sold post. I have used that procedure for some years (except when I make a mistake).
My basic idea as to posting on this board is for the ease and convenience of readers. I do not post multiple buys or sales on the same post because it is inconvenient for readers to figure it out. If for any reason it is more convenient for me but going to be difficult for readers, I skip it.
In the case you asked about this morning, notice that the sale post included the buy post from yesterday. No need for any reader to not see that immediately. Just click on the posted buy. I am surprised that you had not previously understood that.
