and BOX and JNPR. Box was down 18 cents so I grabbed a few thousand shares and just sold those to lower my options holdings.

Funny, I think it's getting drug down by FB due to the privacy law passed in California stating that people have to sign off to sell their data.

Isn't that kinda what you do when you sign up for social media??

It's also getting very clear it's in a flag pattern at this point, just needs something positive and it should take another climb

They already do... It's called 'Terms and Conditions' and it's in the fine print. If dumbasses don't read it, it's their own damned fault.

Truth

There goes JNPR.

OLED options back green and about to be in the money....taking a percentage off the table

Received almost all my fills on $2.50 July 20 AVEO COVERED calls at 25 cents. Still sitting at the ask needing 38 more to finish.

For newbies that is NOT a buy calls post. It's a covered call that if it gets called out I make $2.75 on those under $2 buys yesterday.

my $85 puts out 8/3 are back green! Need the time decay though to make it worth anything.

Edit: closed for a small profit.

Huge gains today!

BOX on the move. Cracks me up every time.

Whats up with SDRL?

Markets been letting the air outta the balloon entire 2nd half of trading session. This is why you get those covered calls in place on your winners and/or take profits.

Bank shares leading the retreat. JPM went red. BAC down 41 cents on a slow decent.

This makes no sense to me. With rising interest rates and a firm capital base, these stocks are poised for a blowout quarter. I'm long BAC and have several deep in the money calls with a January strike. Q2 is typically a stronger quarter than Q1. I'll be adding to my position before earnings.

yep. OLED flipped green was showing $150 profit. Instead of waiting until Aug and hanging 8500 in buying power I closed with the profit and moved on to the next trade.

Well that ended as a bunch of meh for my portfolio today

Yeah my BOX Calls had moved up 18% and then gave it all back.

Anyone looking into the Hemp market? Just read that a bill passed senate for an agriculture market..

Bloodbath

tech hanging in so far. NFLX $9 off the open lows

Gaming stocks are getting slaughtered.

Manufacturer numbers crushed it

Box jumped 15 cents....need the support created last 4 days to sustain into the anticipated rebound up to at least mid level of previous move.

We talk about reversal trades, volume momentum trades, trend trades, Darvis Box trades but my mainstay trade is trading gaps. You see me post them all the time and here is one where I had been posting accumulation of GILD in the mid $60's and then the continued trend move breakout above $67.50. I looked for the gap to be filled all the way up to $71.78. These gap fills happen over and over as posted so many times. So I exited on the initial gap fill because something else happens all the time, that being exhaustion top from filling the gap - at least short term. Over 90% of successfull gap fills result in at least a pullback. GILD did so but note the double bottom on the 2 pullbacks. Screaming buy on that for an eventual move back to this short term resistance top (taking a break).

Tesla actually increasing production. Are they going to pull the rabbit out of the hat?

Netflix and Twitter will be your market leaders if we can get a bounce here.....both in wedge formations and both held their 21 day moving average this morning.

If you want action, look at AAOI

Do you see TWTR coming out of that bull flag anytime soon?

Don't believe it'll be this week......shortened trading week means volumes will be low on everything. Only watching this week.

tech is trying to fight it off after lunch

DOW tried to get back up to even for the day, just couldn't get there

Sold roku covered calls against my current holdings. 46.5 strike expiration 8/3 before earnings release. $1.48 premium per share.

JNPR move continues. Thank you markets! BOX postive and moving slower.

RRTS major signal just went off.
