I just got a news flash that Trump is sending 3k marines to Iraq. Don't know if that's additional troops or a late print from 2 days ago. I'm on mobile and don't have time to verify it. The markets did sell off at the time of the release.

More troops to Iraq can hold it down.


Damnit why do I have to be on my B Billet... I want back in the fleet with my grunts!

I'm gonna stick it out for a bit. This market seems pretty strong considering the futures market recovery less than 12 hours ago. Fingers crossed. Good luck to you!

I'm with you. I sold my SPY puts at the open and flipped to calls so I think it goes higher Monday provided there are no attacks by either side.

Locked and loaded on both SNSS and ONTX!

oil/ gas and tanker stocks up today: I'm in NAT and TNK

NAT - when it gets to and holds 5.20 it can run to 5.70's.

Today the markets were caught with their pants down. There is little doubt we would have had a big squeeze open this morning without taking out the terrorists. So the question now becomes did today jolt enough big money to change their planning over the next quarter? If so then today's push higher after the low start is just cover for getting themselves aligned. A lot of options action today, so what I'm suggesting is buy a cheap $323 SPY Put expiring Monday just as a hedge against some weekend sentiment change.

I'm rather thin except for some PYPL calls and such that have limit loss built in.

Closed my 1/17 FB calls. Didn't feel like dealing with the uncertainty overseas over the weekend. The gap up will probably come Monday now.

What did you set your limit loss at? I'm wondering if it closes half of this gap and bounces up Monday.

On PYPL? I didn't because I bought SPY Puts as hedge but if I were to set a stop loss it would be $0.38 on them because a down opening that is going to move upward would stay above that IMO. A strong opening and those will be good to go. The weekend events will have much to do with what happens early next week.

Agreed. Just wanted your thoughts on it. I'm averaged down to $.80. Hesitant to average down more due to uncertainty but it's very inviting.

108.24 would be gap fill. It would also bounce off the bottom support for that wedge of it keeps on this short term trend.

Cashed out on PER.

This black swan event allowed a small profit on 2 energy stocks today. Bought some COP and COG as they were lagging the others a bit.

Sold 1/3 of my SAVA position today, locking in a double on my initial investment cost for all of my shares.
Will ride the other 2/3 to see where things go.

Smart man. I sold half of mine when I could go net free. Would have been nice to have waited a bit, but the remaining half is looking good.

Futures down 15. This is all a typical sell off over nothing the markets like to do on such occasions, so watch for the same old "V" bottom on volume and then buy without questioning or caring about short term moves thereafter. This is where you make big money by being firm in your conviction.

Options 4 weeks out just to capture best premium.

Sold half of Puts on the weak open. Markets pushing up but I didn't pull the trigger on anything more than I have.

SNSS is up at resistance area. If volume floods in it will be a runner.

Gonna be alright on PYPL as with all of them as long as markets don't turn over. That means no huge negative event coming.

OA - you mentioned options 4 weeks out, but are you still thinking PYPL will run for those Jan17/113Cs? I was able to catch it and average down when it was in the .30s .. positive moves already this morning, but curious as to if you are thinking it will continue?

*just saw your post above.. Thanks!

Yes - It's going to wake up for reclaiming close to $5.50 is my 1st rung 2020 target. But that has to be the longest darn cup and handle in market history! Achieve that and candle is lit for further continuation above $7.
