AAPL: Buying the Dips!

Discussion in 'Stocks' started by cactiman, Oct 6, 2012.

  1. cactiman, does it worry you at all that since 2007 apple has sold more smart phones then anyone else, until last quarter when samsung sold 18m and apple sold 16.5m?

  2. Had a 540 order that got hit and I bailed 543. I also sold 2 $520 Dec puts at $15.90 and chickened out at $15. Good daily money. but to worried for even short term. I'll keep trading it and hopefully leg into a long position.

  3. If AAPL slows down or goes sideways a while that's fine with me.
    That's why I trade out 4-6 months - makes timing much less stressful.
    Everything I know about the stock/chart on a fundamental/technical level tells me it will be higher by next April.

    Have placed all my bets.
    Time to sit back and watch...
    :cool:

  4. i don't know how you make money you been eating the same sandwich 150 points down so far.

    whats the rally based on here? the economy is really not good with or without a deal on the fiscal cliff. i don't think obama is giving up on tax increases for the rich and the R's sign a piece of paper saying they won't raise taxes for any reason.

  5. This drubbing is getting a bit ridiculous. Of course, the market can remain irrational longer then one can remain solvent.

  6. This is true. Since September 18th I have not booked any profits with AAPL, and have continued to bet on it going back up as it's fallen in price.
    How the politicians will kick the can down the road I don't know, but still think they'll find a way - master slither-ers that they are!

  8. AAPL has gone down for 7 weeks, and still hasn't taken out the last Higher Low in its Uptrend.
    I've got 23 weeks (till April 19th) for it to go back up.
    Seems likely to me...

  9. Uggg...Back in at 41. Am looking to sell a 520 put or even lower depending on price action tommorow. Mostly hoping to close and get in lower yet. They are another cash cow company, and even if sales drop they are making a fortune, and I am no APPL fanboy.
