Good luck my friend. QID in the green for me right now. Amen!
Bought QID May 61 Calls @ 2.64. Fucking markets are turning now.
.13 spread.
I like a few but like I mentioned the spread is .20 to .30 cents.
Ten contracts & you're down $300 trying to catch up to the ask price.
I like Lockheed, Ford, GM, Rig, Alaska air lines to name a few.
They said that HFT would tighten the bid & the ask.
I've never seen the bid/ask so wide on a lot of these options.
Scares the hell out of me to put in a trade just to get even with the bid moving up to your ask buy price & then surpassing it to make a profit.
Never seen it this bad.
anybody looking at something solid today?
speak up guys. we're all in this together.
Deej, put me down for a loser on the EXPE Puts.
Pissed. Shot through the 50 Day & still hung on.
How did the trade work out? I already closed up. Couldn't make out the numbers.
Man, my eyes are dilated from the eye doctor. Having a hard time seeing the monitors, typing & feeling a little light headed.
Hope you guys had a good day.
Yellen Interrupts the Fade (for now)
Monday, March 31, 2014 11:29 AM
The markets were not even open for 15 minutes this morning, and the typical fade was already beginning. But then, Janet Yellen made the comment that the “QE taper does not mean reduced stimulus” and that the economy still needs “extraordinary support for some time.” And on that news, the markets abandoned the fade and moved higher. At least for now.
From a trading perspective, one comment from Yellen is not enough to change the “fade” sentiment that’s been occurring all month long. Plus, when you see momentum stocks like TSLA, NFLX, and FEYE still trading lower today, this indicates that the fade tactic is still in play. Since these high-flyers tend to give you a good idea of tactical sentiment, nothing I can see right now warrants us changing your strategy. All my humble opinion.
The trend lately has been a late sell off almost everyday.
That's why I positioned myself with puts hoping the trend continues.
EXPE down over a dollar since I bought it. Line down .12.
Premium wise EXPE is in the green while LINE is like watching paint dry.
Heading out to get my eye exam. Talk to you guys later.
There you go. Nail the bastard.
Bought EXPE April 70 Puts @ .95. Site is slow again.
Bought LINE Apr 28 Puts @ 95 LOL Finger twitched!
GN DEEJ & SOU!!!
That was LULU. Up .30 cents in a half hour.
Struggling. My league drafted last night well past midnight.
Waiting for a possible afternoon sell off. The trend the last few days. Not sure which way to go. I got call & put candidates but just don't want to be wrong.
You probably don’t know this, but World Wresting Entertainment (WWE – NYSE) (formerly the World Wrestling Federation) has been one of the absolute best performing stocks in the market this year.
The damn spreads are too wide to get in!!!!!!!
Even after this recent 10% pullback, it is still up a whopping 60% since the beginning of the year. Sharp paper has been all over this name the entire way up, buying calls, and then rolling them higher as WWE gapped higher day after day.
I’ve been itching to get into this name for a while, but the stock offered no pullbacks, and there was never really an attractive entry point. On top of this, options in this name have been thinly traded for so long, that option markets have been too wide to consider making a trade.
At this point, WWE has gotten crushed a few days in a row now, and the traders late to the party are bailing.
One, this stock could still drop a bit further, and two, option premiums are pretty expensive. As I mentioned earlier, the call activity in this name has been incredible for quite some time. At this point, there’s monster open interest in the April 30 and 35 calls, and there’s also 18,000 July 40 calls out there. (.15 spreads)
What’s almost prompting me to enter this trade now is the activity in the last two sessions. While the stock has been getting hit, the bulls have still been coming in for the April 30 calls. Over the last few days, over 5,000 calls have been bought for roughly $1.50. That’s “only” $750,000 in premium, but it seems like more when you consider that this customer is looking for more than a 10% rebound in just under a month.
The bulls have been right on this name all year, so maybe let’s hop on board with them now after this recent pullback.(Worried about a Friday afternoon sell off).
I bought Ford straight up when it went under $9.00. Bounced back to $13.
Wow! I'll take 3 out of 4. Nice job!
Should of got into GILD yesterday. YELP taking off!
Your private life does not belong on a public board. Just saying the brother part sort of hit a soft spot.
YO MO FO!!!!!
GM Y U, DEEJ!!! & Self!
Face Book is spending a lot of money lately. Maybe they want to be the next Google. But Zuckerburg doesn't strike me as someone who could achieve the same results.
Opens up a ton of questions. Human nature. But none of my business.
Take care of loved one's @ home. The market & the board will be here when you get back.
Anyone get in?
OK boys, have to do some homework for fantasy baseball.
My league drafts Thursday night, 15 teams & another draft, keeper league Sunday morning, 18 teams.
Good luck in your trades.
looking @ GILD April 70 Calls. Not in yet.
GILD has seen a healthy pullback to $70 (see the long candlestick tail yesterday), which is now acting as a support level. With a possible extended move above $73 today I might bite.
GM was mentioned in the Wall Street Journal & The New York Times.
I think there will be more opportunities to get back in as long as the negative news keeps flowing.
Just sold for a .28 profit.
Sold GM June 35 Puts @ 2.36. .28 Gain :-} Post 20496
So do we. A relocation package from her company would be sweet.
Her company US HQ is in Costa Mesa.
GM looking good. 2.19 x 2.20
Just got back from San Diego. My wife wants to move there.
But here company wants her in D.C., Maryland or Virginia area.
Watching Squawk on the Street. CNBC. They are all over GM.

Dangerous on a green day.
