Curious as to your take on Gold-
Doesn't seem like you play commodities much, but I haven't seen anyone else on Ihub that finesses the charts better then you-
Much thanks-
And that GLD chart....
Looks just as bad-
Almost an evening star pattern there. Hope a gap down in the morning confirms it-
You can tell people loaded up AAPL on Monday for earnings-
Should be a solid and easy play for most of the month simply by playing the hourly chart, but we'll know on the 25th whether the next big move is up or down-
6 am in the morning they open-
And just as a follow-up since I cannot edit a post via mobile app-
Pretty sure TVIX just did a reverse split, hence why there are no options trading on it yet-
And though not all, a vast majority of these levered ETFs trade options
Can make a comfortable living just trading those
TVIX is a 2x Bull ETF based on the VIX that can be traded with options-
Just like FAS, FAS, SPXU, etc...
Very good traders in volatile times-
Lurker here, occasional poster in places-
Just want to say thanks to everyone who posts here for creating a high quality board here-
Nothing better then listening to intelligent people discuss the market-
Wish success to all and a great 2013 trading year!
dead cat bounce with AAPL at the ~500 area-
1st hit- 20% bounce
2nd hit- 10% bounce
3rd hit- 5% bounce...
nothing left in it over 500
think gold/silver was telling you something is up with it's action this week...
let alone the bloodbath this morning
Money will be made once the conference starts-
It will be the anti-AMZN
Still remember when they showed the 4s and what happened-
and there are many many gaps below-
Thought for sure they'd run it one more day. Been a very profitable week and change though-
Believe it was 137-
Felt like it was 140
Regardless, totally agree with your point.
Curious as to where you got your 2% estimate with your math, as well as estimated % of those unlocked shares to be sold-
Would help in the future if you pulled those from past performances in other stocks. :)
Doesn't matter too much, bought heavily in 22p this morning and did all right. Should be a bloodbath the first hour or so, planning on exiting then-
Think people don't realize that with stocks at this price point, you need to play ITM, else premium decay will destroy you-
Surprised, other then madrose, no one has seen the ominous chart on AAPL right now-
Saw that today, maybe a spike up then a sell-off from those who bought much earlier and cheaper?
Really keeping an eye though, it it doesn't break 645, could be a helluva double top...
With so many people locked into the 4s, and many carriers not offering discounts like before, sale could be underwhelming.... Relatively speaking of course. Why I just play trends with AAPL and never stake a claim up or down on her. Can make a helluva living just playing options on AAPL with the liquidity in them
AAPL has lacked conviction in this run-up
Has been very easy to trade the last few days, which isn't like it. ;)
Remember the massive price action/swings when they unveiled the 4s last year, thinking the same here real soon
I'd say neither-
Kinda hoping this thing keeps matriculating up, cause the following downdraft will be nice to play
Which ever way the market chooses to go... Should be a solid move in that direction
This has been some listless action...
Wow-
Haven't posted or read this board in years. Actually got out back in the golden days and thought I made a huge mistake selling out at 9...
But it is sad to see essentially the same things being said now as was then when the pps came crashing down. Just dig back a few years-
Hope the people in now aren't trapped and those that get in make some coin, just don't hold your breath for 12 cents again...
Good trading-
So little volume on the SPY too...
Been a sideline day thus far
Remember last year 4th of July week was a big melt-up week that lasted till August, and we saw what happened-
Kinda curious how they will play it out this year-
bummed that i sold out of my NKE puts too early...
but still was a nice profit today, and flipped that into LULU anyway, so maybe all is not lost ;)
Does that look bear flag-ish on the SPY?
Have seen that similar look on many charts...
And you can thank Prime Minister Monti for that EOD rip-
Said on Italian TV that Eurobonds were supported by many at the Summit, and Greece isn't leaving the Euro. Exactly the same things said last night...
you can thank Italian minister Monti for that rip-
all it took was him saying that most people like Eurobonds and he doesn't think Greece will leave the Euro to cause that rip
kinda like how you said Da' Boyz have keyword triggers for orders, that looked like a prime example of it
relatively speaking, volume seems suspiciously heavy considering the upcoming long weekend...
looks like no one wants to hold anything over the weekend that isn't the dollar...
I dunno-
I bought in later in the day when the hourly chart trend line was broken
Hoping that the China PMI data is good, that will solidify a good open tomorrow
AAPL is up almost 3 bucks in AH...
should be a good open tomorrow, hopefully it's the same 7 or so it did on Tuesday morning
Greece... the gift that keeps giving... ;)
Apparently Papendemous (sp?) told some big news outlet there are plans for a Greek exit
it could-
but me thinks a pull-back is coming looking at that 30 minute/hourly chart...
still will be a helluva run when it starts back up though
and that's on a Monday, not a Friday, which makes it even more incredible-
Wouldn't surprise me if this is just covering before the Euro Summit on Wednesday-
That will be the key afternoon of trading this week
5 minute chart supports that-
wonder how many people will be chasing AAPL for a couple days kicking themselves in the ass for chasing FB instead ;)
yes they will-
and totally agree with your thesis on the highflying internet stocks getting rocked-
loaded up on CRM and LNKD puts Friday, as well as some VZ puts cause that chart looks damn ugly with that Friday candle, and telecom hasn't broken yet like the other charts, but looking like it might
what do you have for volume on FB?
watching CNBC now and they are poo-pooing the drop saying it's on no volume...
but I got almost 2 million shares traded on my etrade platform.
really confused now.
but my LNKD puts might be good today ;)
Depends on the open Monday for VZ ..
Thats a big red spinning top with a gap at the top of an uptrend...
Almost seems though that there is a self-fulfilling prophecy in the markets-
Wouldn't surprise me to see a repeat of last August, just on a smaller scale
i dunno...
that L2 is thinning out from an infinite amount to a possible amount
edit: nevermind
here is 1292...
wanna be the first to say it-
boy that Facebook chart looks ugly...
I don't see exhaustion yet-
all the charts might be screaming that, but using the eyeball test, seems there are still plenty of sellers out there, which is why this seems different then last year.
with the crazy dips there was buying, and volatility was crazy, and playing indicators and charts reaped a gold mine-
this time it's just slow and steady. so a bounce will prolly be coming, i just think a little lower then where charts might say so, or maybe a lot lower-
still makes for great theater though ;)
