LPSN needs to break $30 on volume.

Trying to play conservative as well, last couple weeks I have taken a huge hit. Need to start slowing recouping my money back.

Roku launches new analytics for advertisers
May 22, 2019 10:25 AM ET|About: Roku, Inc. (ROKU)|By: Jason Aycock, SA News Editor
Roku (ROKU +1.1%) has announced new tools for advertisers to get a better view of spending on linear and over-the-top TV viewing.

The company's Activation Insights combines a comprehensive view of a brand's linear TV campaign performance with an analysis of potential missed OTT audience, and an optimal budget spend on Roku's platform.

Using the company's Reach Insights tool, brands including Baskin Robbins and RE/MAX found their linear campaigns were no longer reaching a sizable audience, Roku says.

And the company's alluding to a shift visible in this year's upfronts: "This year's TV upfront made one thing very clear, OTT is the new cable and powerful new video channel to reach today's consumers."

Yep, not enough delta here. Get what you pay fr, I guess.

NIO with the hopeful v bottom at $4

Anyone following the ripsaw that is the SPY?

If I had big balls I would have been swing trading options all morning. Instead I am watching.

I watched it from open to about 10am. Yep, very tradeable and easy to follow support, resistance, red/green (at least on paper). Problem is if work calls, I could totally get screwed on the 1-min charts. Plus yeah, no big balls.

yeah exactly

O&G stocks getting killed today. The stockpile estimate was only 4.3 Million barrels off.

It seems like the markets have been overreacting, more than usual, to every bit of news the past month.

Need some big Memorial Day travel numbers.

any wild card from fed minutes in an hour?

It's Powell, anything is possible

My WAG is that Powell says something positive, then something a little negative, and the markets sell based on the little negative.

At least the gas prices might be lower for my travel this weekend.

At what I'm down, really they should credit me for gas used.

can anyone make heads or tails of ENPH? Been a hell of ride but trees don't grow to the sky. I kind of want to slowly sell down and hope for pull back.

TLSA might hit 178 by next week the way it is falling

The 177.5 weekly puts are priced like it, too.

Lyft inverse h&s on 30min chart breaking shoulder line and confirming support. In for a couple calls

Here's your QRVO impacted by the China ban that was delayed 90 days. It ripped upward to open but sold off all day. The selloff breakdown began before and accelerated once the Huwaei news broke. Then today failed reversal, and we know why. That news of the 90 day extension/delay caught the big volume traders off guard so they had to kill the move.

So its a wait and see on breakdown towards $56 previous support low or if the majority turned around their trades during the day. Either way there is going to be a big move when you have that much volume building. So a spread of some type is the best approach. But a June 21 call as posted earlier on the cheap would be the solo trade.

Piece on Netflix and why some investors think it's days are numbered

Feel like Disney is about to have its way with Netflix

Futures are bright red this morning

So sick of all this trade war non sense. This will cost Trump the election if not fixed.

I've been wondering if maybe he drags it out until the General Election and then compromises to end it. Markets bump to a peak again and it's a tailwind into the election

I've considered this exact scenario too. However, that's a dangerous move to gamble with, too many variables. If that were the case, China could presumably enact severe tariffs right before the election and kill the global economies to get Trump removed. Their totalitarian government could survive the economic destruction if it meant getting rid of Truump.

I guess I could have just waited to buy NVDA around $150 instead of Naked Puts getting me there.

Futures were down 30 at 4am.

You can blame China. We were close to a deal then they went Chinese on us and pulled out of some negotiated terms.

Exactly. Very consistent with Chinese negotiation tactics, which often view themselves as much more skilled negotiations than they actually are, and typically over-position themselves and the leverage they have

Reality is that Trump is correct - the current situation with the tariffs is much better (or less painful) for the US than China. The problem is that it's being negotiated by someone only guaranteed 18 more months in office and China may choose to wait to see if they get a soft negotiator in the chair before agreeing to terms.

The longer this goes the less costly it will be to China to wait and see. For this thread's purposes what it means is increasing volatility.
