Hope not have 247 calls @ .07

Yeah, written rules, I have them somewhere, the heart and mind fool you indeed.

But the world we live in is filled with, only if, I should've, I wanted to...

I think the key is that you eventually become, not immune, but used to it.

I sold MSFT a few days ago and made $1500, then lost $1100 doing stupid trades that were not based on charts.

I guess having another job, I have a lot of time, no opportunity is missed as another one is there at another time.

I bet monks would be good at the market, maybe.

Yeah I did that last week with MSFT, was up $1900 didn't take, ended up $197 stupid greed.

By not taking 1400 or 1900 I lost it, kinda strange when you think about it.

It's also something I don't like about eOption, no trailing stop.

Yeah I got some SPY Aug 02 2017 247.50 Call @.23 after normal hours, didn't have that much buying power left but a gain is a gain. I'll probably sell that and AAPL calls at open, although I'll somewhat regret it later as this will probably run to 248.

Who knows, maybe we'll be down, doubtful, but you never want to be too optimistic in the market.

APPL has the highest valuation, even though its only $15X Apple is worth more than Amazon, Microsoft, and other tech companies.

Gained 50b today alone on the price moment.

I can only pray to sell my 165 calls at 165. I know they wouldnt be worth as much as I'd hope, but still more than I paid.

Prays.

Thanks, well it's one of those, "wish I would've invested more", but $250 was fine for me to lose. A lot can happen over night and tomorrow morning too.

I just have to remember that I probably wont lose money, and that is about all I can hope for :)

thanks, fingers crossed, at least I should get more than my original $250.
I was going to look back at the history of earnings to look at the drop at open. to try and figure it out.

I bought AAPL Aug 04 2017 W 165.00 Call, not sure how the premiums will work or what the value even will be.

Pretty tempted to sell at Open as pull back I think would be expected.

Close to $160 now, if it opened at $165, I don't think they'd be worth near the $2.75 current ITM puts are now.

I bought SPY call at close, hope everything is green tomorrow

Not sure how accurate: Apple beats by $0.08, misses on revenue

https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/AAPL/earnings

I picked up some crazy AAPL Aug 04 2017 W 165.00 Call for .05, tried for .03, never filled.

Figured its worth the risk as I didn't put in much at all.

I just have a STOP on my puts figure if it hits, it hits.

We have to get a green day eventually where the gap holds. Getting used to the price dropping right after the gap up.

Futures are on fire right now, DOW 87, NAS 22.75, S&P 6.00. Tomorrow will defiantly be interesting one way or another. China is also doing well.

Bought some 247.5 calls for .20 near EOD. Looks positive going into close, we'll see morning, didn't look good at the close of market.

for MSFT or market in general?

MSFT exploded, not sure why, that volume.

Yes it's funny, regardless of how we're doing, the DOW is up.

Don't know if we'll recover today, maybe trying to shake or selloff, amzn dropped $20.

QQQ and most tech stocks too

Wow this dive. Big sell off

Well I e come to realize that the option price dropping probably wasn't due to manipulation. Rather the weekend time decay, although it appears as though it'll only be a penny or two. Don't hold over the weekend due to time decay unless you buy at the very close.

I agree, however, I also don't think it'll be as big of a gap up or run up as the candle yesterday wasn't as big as June 9th. We can hope though.

Hopefully Microsoft can, bought aug 4 call for 74, already down 14% couldn't average down or tried but never got in when I wanted.

I could swear it was being held down, there was no spike up or down at the end. Although there is news that google might steal some of its customers. Idk oh well today's profits are gone Monday of the price doesn't go up. Win some and lose some.

Yeah a slow day or flat in general must be for those premiums.

Well maybe you were right they're just running a couple hours behind. Probably lost my chance for a substantial dip in spy and msft.

I may buy back if there's a dip or red into close.

I sold off everything I had at the height about 10-15min ago for a $700 gain, not a lot but better a gain than a loss. Even if it goes up, which it probably will next week, just too risky.

Still upset I didnt get into BABA and I'm sure MSFT will continue to go up next week.

Guess not ?

Waiting for a big move up today with QQQ, not sure it'll come though. Although Amazon is climbing.

Yeah very true, that's why I just said forget it, 3x% is enough

nice one, now we all know it'll go to .15+ since we're all out

Wow I should've listened to my gut and got into BiDU up 10% now from the 5% at opening.

Closed at .10 as well, was going to wait for .11 or .12 again, but up from .07 that's too greedy. That always seems to bit me in the ass.

Too much decay

Holding the QQQ 144 aug 4 calls

Okay scratch that

Idk INDU dropped along with SPY. While QQQ held

Not sure we're going to see green on those 247 calls soon enough

Yeah I'll give it another 20-30min then sell

Yeah I'll give it another 20-30min then sell

Added at .07, now .06 who knows, worth a shot if the bulls take over.

And then there's BIDU which is just out of control today. +5% is just unreal looking at these other stocks.

I want to buy calls with all of these stocks being down, but you're right maybe It'll be a put day. I think GuTA has a better idea, sit back and wait for things to settle down and see which direction were headed. Then again play puts or calls accordingly.

Sucks having to goto work and have positions.
