Volume is almost dead in the market, simply the most boring week in a long time. Just looking at the market is making me sleepy :(
I only have a level 2 non-margin option account. May be I should consider opening a margin account now to sell premiums.
Horrible week to trade options. Tech stocks are barely moving.
what an ugly week so far, the market is moving nowhere and looks so confused.
PCLN lets go
PCLN down $100 lol. Wow
End of this year. lol
NflX weeeeeeeeeeeee.
Not a great week, $1,700 loss(GMCR& LNKD) in earnings play and $450 loss in day trading.
Hope I'll have good one next week. Good night everyone.
KCG $4.15 up 60% wow
Dow up 250 wow monsta day
Reload: In 15 AAPL $620 call @ .27
AAPL chart looks set for big up swing in afternoon session.
Bought 10 AAPL $620 call @ .45 Will ride it all the way to powerhour
PCLN is a day trading stock, it's not a volatile stock and typically moves only around 5-7%. Options premiums will aready be priced in before the earnings.
My last earnings play of Summer 2012
3 LNKD $85 puts @ 2.60
that's it no more earnings play till oct-Nov.
I think they screwed both call and put holders. Options premiums are priced in for 21% move. Stock is only down 11% now.
Bad move today :(
Cuts forecast with only 15% to 20% growth est for fiscal 2012.
Just Wondering how the stock will react after it opens.
GMCR halted?????
AAPL Nice $5 move from lows!!!
Selloff over, now Buyback buyback buyback. lol
Market SELL SELL SELL
Earnings play: 7 GMCR $16 puts @.89 avg
I'm playing it both sides, 50% haircut very much possible or could go up 25% if it beats.
GMCR ripping higher, Earnings due today.
FB knew what they are doing. Pump up the company's valuation showing some impressive growth number as private company, hype the IPO and dump the shares on market to poor small investors.
Its a well laid-out master plan by Facebook.
PCLN going back to $630 again????
AAPL $10 gap up again??? wow
On HLF Q1 earnings conference call,
Noted short-seller David Einhorn asked the company about some of its previous 10Kdisclosures.
Herbalife (HLF) was having a rough day dealing with an earnings forecast below expectation offered last evening, but it just got worse as apparently noted hedge fund manager (and short seller supreme – think Lehman Brothers) David Einhorn got on the conference call to "ask some questions". Once Einhorn gets involved you can bet a ton of institutional "me too" money will piggy back. We saw that in Green Mountain Roasters (GMCR) last year.
Eihhorn specifically noted that the company had listed three groups of distributor as "at the low end" in a previous filing but stopped disclosing that in its last 10K. In response to the question of whether the company stopped tracking or stopped disclosing that information, an Herbalife executive said the criteria for grouping distributors in to different classes was based off of volume purchases. The company said the reason it took the information out of the 10k was related to a change in CFO, noting it did not view the information as valuable information to the business or to investors. The company said its "objective is to be completely transparent."
PCLN down $20 from high
PCLN call options unbelievable, never seen this of monsta rally this year.
PCLN anyone considering puts here???? lol
PCLN up $51 today, God damn I'm still shaking my head in shame for leaving all the money on the table. Fck :(
DOW 14000 close today, Mark this post. lol
PCLN holy $hit, Unbelievable WTF????
PCLN awesome freaking moves this week.
Dow 13,000 and AAPL is roaring now. holy $hit
AMZN options were freaking expensive, option premiums on AMZN did not justify the avg earnings price movement for AMZN. So I only went for the puts.
Where as in case of NFLX the risk was well worth it to strangle. The Avg price movement of NFLX is 15%, where as for AMZN it is less than 7%.
Had I played a strangle on AMZN, I would have been double screwed as this POS has not moved A/H yesterday.
Every stock has its own trading logic, it varies based on the stock volatility and option pricing.
Sold 20 FB puts @ $2.6
