Blashing for Profits

[blasher]

thoughts for the day as we come to a close . . .
AAPL - never really got a Rally going, so no Signal
LNKD - after a weak Open, LNKD Rallied quickly . . bug failed to even get any higher than the Closing hour yesterday . . so that was a Trigger (@ 09:45.ET) to Buy Put options (or Short) . . the Apr 170 Put was easily bought @ 60 . . . then the Drop faltered as a Strong Reversal ensued and between 11:00.ET and 11:10.ET that Put was easily Sold @ 95 . . for a 50% gain!
NFLX - Gap Open Rally on the first bar of my 10-min. Chart . . and easy Tell on the second bar that she was coming Down ... there was some room to Profit from the Put options, but Volatility was so high that put-option-prices did not Drop enough on the early Rally, that even when the underlying DID Drop, there was not much gain . . so an easy break-even.
QQQ & SPY never did rally . . . Dropping from the start then meandering weakly higher the rest of the day to still Close Down some for the day.

So, this is how I do my Plan each morning for Day- or Two- Trading.
I do the research that morning and then stick to that Plan.
Making some money each day or two is nice.
