If you made gains and reached your target and/or get a sell signal, follow your plan, get out, and don't look back. Nothing wrecks a good strategy like FOMO. I speak from lots of experience there.

Earnings play for today: INN. Correction on the dividend - that was a ps dividend announced last week. Sorry. Still think it's worth taking a look at today. Their guidance and how they handle any questions may make the difference.

If the NBA ends up announcing they will play the remainder of the season at Disney World Orlando that would allow families of players to also be in the 'semi bubble', how do y'all think that would effect DIS? I'd expect at least a quick spike since they'd be getting some sort of revenue at least out of that park.

Sorry - was doing some trades but wanted to further clarify my shorter post on when to exit trades.

The reason I posted a general statement on when to sell is because it depends on a wide variety of factors. What was the target when entered? Where is the resistance for that particular stock or market? Do you see further move above resistance? Tons of factors to consider.

EXAMPLE: One I had posted that had broken out of a Darvis Box (sideways range bound period) just as the market sell off hit is SWKS. I posted entering that on the pull back was a good trade because it likely would resume its breakout. It has. So buying on the pullback between $99 and $101 (as market posts were being made about finding support) was an easy decision.

Stocks/Markets breaking out of a technical Darvis Box tend to run up. So I take a dual strategy approach instead of selling 100% of the shares here at $109+ I sold 5k shares (50% of my holdings) and am selling $110 covered calls at $3 into late March. The straight sale nets me $7.27/share from entry). The covered calls net me $112 per share if the stock moves above that by expiration OR it lowers my holding cost per share by $3 if we go sideways or lower.

As for the chart. See the left arrow signal of the breakout? See that it was racing higher but reversed on the huge selloff in the markets. Then see the arrow on the right side showing disciplined entry based on broader market posts about reversal. And now the obvious recovery and continuation of the breakout has sent it trending well above the initial breakout signal. These are the kind of trades that I target above all others.


Old post showing how a Darvis Box works. Note many times you get a post breakout backfill test but the technical trade has confirmed, to go long, so this is where I load the boat if it comes back within $28.

Similar question if the NBA opts for Vegas re WYNN and CZR. Not sure which properties they'd stay at in Vegas.

For NET, would that box start around 3/20 until 5/6 when it broke out? Or does it start more around 3/30 where it was more or less flat for all of April?

Got in BJ at .02 and sold at .06, thanks!

Question on that trade. It said they were at .075, but could set that as the limit sell, so I sold market at .06. For options that don't have a ton of volume like that, is that your best bet? Or should I have set limit to .1?

As of now, would point towards MGM/Mandalay Bay.

there has been a lot of volume on the 155. Probably not showing up because the price is pennies.

these orcl calls for fri are really messing with me. every day last week there was big volume on a different OTM strike but most were lower than my 57s (weird ones...54, 55.5, etc). Today there's volume on the 60s. Someone just had a grand they wanted to throw away today?

you and I are not even in the same ball park as far as experience, etc, but I'd hold. That's a lot of time to play with, and I assume ddog is running on strength not hype. I have september calls for another company that went into the money today and I'm not even thinking about selling for exactly the same reason, it's finally coming into favor and I think it's the start of a good run.

I got first fills at $2.80 and just slowly selling at ask each move higher. $3.80 is target exit for 50% remaining or all if we get pops that bypass ask targets. If you see a 200 option sell then I'm out.
