I was heavy in tech, and today's sell off in the nasdaq has practically put me back to yesterday morning's levels. There was a thread on home run...
Hey Jeff, Yes, that 2800 level for the SP500 is going to be the level to look at this Summer. I'm sure every trader on here figures that the...
The PVH move today is what I saw when I traded PVH before earnings last week. I doubled down to 8 PVH Jun 160 calls at avg 2.825 betting PVH would...
I had PVH setting up for a breakout above $163 after this shallow base on base pattern. It also has fundamental support for the shares after a...
Nothing much today, just adjusting my stop on ADSK. I initially had a 50% stop loss on ADSK, but decided to remove the stop and allow it to run....
Homerun options used to be my kind of options. The low volatility of the past couple of years have really hurt home run trading, but it seems to...
That's a very good point. Buying the highs of an individual stock where the sector is also making new highs should give you a better return. I'd...
What you can do is sell 1 while holding the other call with a stop loss. That's what I would do a lot when I'm not sure whether to close out the...
That's true jL575, I guess everyone does have a chance to make profits in this bull market. I'm updating to adjust my stop on PVH. The other...
Well, this has been one heck of a bull market. I should also mention that the simplest strategies work the best, and history repeats itself. We're...
That's a nice trade. I saw ANF Friday morning taking a big hit. As for trading, the tight stop is what I've fixed over the years. In option...
Thanks Thanks newwurldmn, One thing I've learned and continue to learn in my own journal is to let winners run. I've let my winners run much...
I've started a new position to park another $10K. I'm using AAPL Jul 185 calls. This will be my third 10K position, although they are actually...
For the week, it looks like only 2 closed trades. I locked in profits on LULU jun 105 calls for +3725 and the loss on ULTA was -802. My gains for...
Thanks, but LULU was all you and Haj, I just put some skin in that game. The only thing that kept me in were some of the strong retail earning...
Well, I thought about using oil as a place to put about $10,000, but I've settled on NVDA using the Jul 255 calls and Aug 260 calls. I'm looking...
I've added to PVH this morning. I still believe in the strong report last night where Q1 beat and Q2 guidance was above estimates. FY being inline...
But there are patterns in trading earning reports. Ex. I traded INTU on a pattern where my initial risk on INTU Jun 195 calls was about -$1000,...
I used to know someone who would use that strategy too, and the issue occurred when the stock moved beyond the short straddle. He would tell me...
Yes, these are definitely different strategies. I'm setting up for directional moves that could take more than one day to follow through, where I...
