Miss the team
Miss you guys. Wishing you all the best!
Hi Johnny. Which chart are you seeing this from
Happy Holidays everyone. I hope everyone has been doing well.
Been busy with the new job that demands a lot of time so just wanted to check in with everyone; nlightn, CN, and all.
Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
Morning guys. Glad to see everyone again. Watchlist: FB and MSFT for options.
Great going CN.
AMZN is on a run
AMZN is on a run
Same thing I was thinking nlightn. Thinking volatile sideways action but for how long....no clue. May get less volatile as time goes on but anywho that's my WAG.
Good call Kraigger. Seems to be growing some legs at YS2. Think its preparing for turn?
Alot of the charts I'm looking at have resistance and sometimes profit-taking has been occurring after or sometimes before the holiday. Last year it did.
Thinking puts on Tuesday

Nice play Howie!
Oh no way Kraigger. It may have already bottom. I'm always open minded to the possibilities. Just what I seen from the charts. No money in it
A good morning to you nlightn. How have u been sir?
Good morning all
Good morning all.
THink this is setting up to be a win for Hilary?
Not much Howie. Just been busy with this semester of school. With the markets being stagnant been looking into long term trades.
Only holding GPRO as of right now for BHS. And TWTR 36 calls for options which expire about 3 weeks from today but I expect that to expire worthless.
Good to hear you got back even Howie. Good going. Wishing you the best.
Wanted to share Arthur Hill's download of pretty much all the market charts to get an overall feel of the market. I only downloaded the ETFs so I can get a perspective as I had none. Not necessarily using the indicators but just wanted to share with everyone the set-up instructions on Stockcharts.com. Just requires uploading to your stockcharts account.

Yes sir. What ya holding?
In some GPRO and thinking something in oil (still searching).
Good Morning all. Everythings up due to Yellen. Just try to stay patient as a reminder not to chase if you werent in already. Looks like pullback on move but not the usually movement when she speaks.
Usually +/- 1% or more on indexes
Nice trade there Kraigger!
K gotta do more research on this one but I do like the chart
Yea great trades on all of those. Only in GPRO right now for long term. Bullish on all three
Hey Kraigger, just reading nice profit I see you had a good day there on the other board. Nice going. Glad u stopped by.
Long term wise
Nice find CN. It may have bottomed
There's at time for everything CN. Looking for long term also in oil until things pick back up.
MUST READ! HFTs tracking social media

I'm with u CN
Hey CN, I only recently discovered it so no position. I may use Buy Hold this time around so that the same thing won't happen as it did with TWTR for the long terms. Will use options on paper to compare ROI once I do get in
I like using options for short term trades. Price seldom Moves in a straight line. I like buying calls on Monday or Tuesday if we gap down and vs versa if we gap up to a weekly pivot. 80% chance price will come back to the Wpp by Friday.
That's my style. Every trader has their comfort level.

What the reason for trading weeklys and front month based on your experience? Time decay?

I don't trade options in my IRA. I recommended TWTR at $14 last spring with 1st target of $20(fib ys1). I recommended last week taking some profits off at $20-21(wr2). I buy and sell at pivots. No guessing!
When I do trade options it's usually weekly's or the front month. I use the pivot price to guide me with what strike to buy and sell. The is no right or wrong way. Every trader has to find what works for them.
Best

TWTR was not the exact the best way to trade at the time we bought. I think it's only helped out those who used BHS at the time the big boys got in at around 16.55/share. We need volatility in options from the time we buy to the time we sell in my opinion.
However JY mentioned to me awhile ago that he would never use BHS ever again. Only options. Wonder why? Will ask.
