Hey Nolerman thanks for your thoughts on FB today.
FB turned into one of my best trades lately.
In at .17 out at 1.88
I missed the higher trading range today since I couldn't watch it while working. But I will take .17 to 1.88 any week!
Thanks... doesnt look I will get to watch it much longer, so I will probably sell soon.
In your opinion how much do you think FB has left in the tank for today?
I'm kicking myself for not unloading my 110c yesterday. Hoping I get an early chance to get out.
Thanks
Jb, What would you expect to see today from FB after that huge move yesterday?
What time is the CC?
SPY $214.00
AAPL $132.05
Gold $1160
SPY $214.72
Options in premarket?
How can an option have volume in premarket? My JPM $64.00 calls just put up volume of 232.
Mistake? Or can some people buy in premarket?
Thanks
Hey 13, I'm trying to find that happy middle area of taking profits and letting it develop into what you see that makes you buy it in the first place.
Example, I bought a PCLN call last week for 5.30 and sold it an hour later for 9.00
Had I kept it all week it did exactly what I thought it would and went to 30.00 at the high and closed the week around 27.00
I will say I am finally having more runners then in the past. Not all huge winners but they move in the right direction for me. I still seem to be a little early on some of them. And the run the following week after my calls expire. But I still get some positives from that knowing I am finding the breakouts, just gotta get better on the time go since I deal strictly in options.
I knew what you meant. Thanks for taking a look!
Thanks Loniee. I bought in at .05 and they closed today at .17 after hitting a high of .25 today. Hoping to see a nice day tomorrow and possibly test $64+.
YELP $58.28
Griff... your not the only one. I had 128's that expired Friday.
Seems to be a common thing with me lately, the week before I had PCLN 1120 calls that expired worthless only to see PCLN hit the 1120 mark hours into the following Monday.
So much for the market going down today haha. It sure can change course in a hurry can't it.
Seems like night and day, from Friday until today.
$130.65
So if the market looks to be going down in the coming week, what is the best way to capitalize on it?
Spy or IWM puts?
Thanks
Anyone playing GOOGL here?
Whats your take for the rest of the week on GMCR? Nice close above the 200ma again today.
Think it might take off this week?
Thanks
I have 136 for this week. Crossing my fingers we have more days this week like today.
Hey JB you playing GMCR this week? Had a nice day closing above the 200ma.
Any thoughts?
Thanks Cap, that's the way I was leaning as well. I got into some weekly GMCR calls today. The death cross was my only thing I was alittle worried about.
Death cross?
How reliable is the death cross when it relates to a downtrend coming? Or is it just every other indicator? Just something to watch?
Just curious how people view it.
Thanks
Hey 13, I got my book the other day. Looks to be just what I might need.
Thanks!
JB you hearing anything about BIDU?
He has like a 4 part seminar taped for youtube. It's a weekend seminar so part one alone is like 7 hours long. Very interesting though.
I looked up Mark Douglas on youtube. I started watching one of his seminars and next thing I know its been an hour watching it already. It seems to be exactly what I need.
I already ordered his book earlier.
Would you say that you have gotten past the doubting that you can be a successful trader?
Hey 13, thanks for the advice on the book. Sorry if I was being a downer yesterday. I was having a mini meltdown. haha I was really questioning if I was ever going to be able to be a successful trader.
I will probably be ordering that book later today.
Thanks again!
Thanks I'll take a look at that book.
Absolutely, it seems to be my hardest issue at hand. My gambling side kicks in as soon as I see my call moving. It has cost me many decent trades.
What gets me is if someone were to hand me the money I could have made today I would have been happy as hell. But then it doesn't seem to be enough when the trade is happening.
What is the book?
thanks
Well today GMCR did exactly what I expected and moved exactly as I had laid out. And yet again I did not stick to my plan and lost out again.
It seems like every time I make a good trade that makes me think I might actually make it as a trader, I follow it up with a stinker that depresses me and makes me think I may never get the hang of it.
Has anyone else had these days where you really question if you will ever catch on and be even remotely good as a trader?
GMCR looking nice so far.
