Asking 1.70 for BABA July 29, 84 puts.
The stock decline is slowing, may ask lower for the puts to clear a good profit. Indicators are somewhat indecisive.
The Chaiken Osc has stopped declining and tending toward flat or upward in the last hour. A/D and OBV continue south. RSI and WM%R have printed slightly higher lows.

trading.jeff was saying yesterday that being a beginner he's welcoming some help.
Been there done that for years at this desk. Lots from a guy named farooq. His posts are useful. I don't miss many, even needing to check other boards often. Decades of experience have a lot of worthwhile thought.
How is Pakistan these days. My MDS is not gaining on me much yet.
Azacitidine every fourth week (five days) for 2 1/2 years now. Pretty stable on platelets and neutrophils. Trouble a year ago but okay after chemo cut in half.
SP500 heat map 62% green, or so.
farooq, amen. But if a trader has little experience, it can be good to get tips from "seniors" such as yourself.
Correction: Post 30190 TSLI should have been TSLA

Getting a bite. Weary; this is difficult. No positions open.
Best single day for I don't know how long. Lot of dry days since.
Have not had time to talk, Kiss. I will when I can. Out of three puts this morning for 2x, unusually good in the market for quite a few days. Beer is usually more on the calls side, so I'm not surprised he is quiet when so many prospects are weak. I try to follow his trades as often as I can. He is an active teacher and much better long than I am. He has been for years.
I still have NFLX 86 puts from .28 this morning, looking at everything in my quiver to decide a better exit.

Okay, Kiss thanks, let's go. My trading and preparation during sessions becomes first. I do not post times of my trades, but usually it's within 5 or 10 minutes. I skip often if it has to be longer.
What brokerage do you use? What does the options chain look like?
I must have minute by minute bid/ask ques on each option I am trading or considering.
What chart service do you use? I need to know everything you can see or know that is available to your choice on chart styles. Where do you get information on indicators, algorithms, etc?
Come back. When you can. I am pretty busy today.

Kiss, hi. Thanks for your post.
I am an experienced technical analysis options trader. Several (many) posters on this board have asked your question over months and years. Many say they are technical, but practically never have actually named indicators and how they use them. It's usually just "technically, so and so". I have made detailed descriptions of my indicators and how they are used, many times, but have almost never received significant replies.
So I keep posting here to be able to receive useful technical notions as well as share my own. If you would like to start a good technical conversation I will be happy to share about my "system", indicators, chart styles and everything else, without reservation. I have no secrets. It's just hard work day after day. Few traders actually are willing to do that.
Time is valuable, I must conserve it. It's my job. It's the way I make a living and improve my estate for 6 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren. I am 88 years old.
A reply will be appreciated. If you would care to mention your on-line brokerage, your chart service, and any other sources of technical information you use, that would be a good start.
Thanks, Roy
