smartyone. I knew about the Mercedes competition coming against TSLA early, but misjudged the immediate effect on TSLA stock. I took the double on puts that was available.
I have often taken off some of a position, typically 50%, hoping for the second half to make serious money. This was a poor time not to employ that trick. My history is that more than half the cases I end up having to settle for a little less, not more.
A 25x miss gets my attention. So I will watch for other chances, up or down with better care to my indicators.

smartone, Hi. In some of your recent posts, "Sept 2017" appears. What are you intending to be understood?
I understand what "Sept 13" or "Sept 15" mean.

Nope. Step away.
Chanos spent a good bit of time this morning explaining why TSLA can't make it as a car company. His main idea is "show me the profits" on building and selling cars.
Yeah Beer, you figured it out. I've been trying to figure out why I was too early wrong, checking the comments on the APPL board, etc. My add was a bit bigger than the first entry.
Twelve cents to the good on last trade for the averaged position. I'm watching the Que frequently, expecting better clues for options there.
Cook aint Jobs.
