May 15 INTC $65 calls @ 0.55
I think OA did too around 1.35, but I'm sure he stopped out around 1.30....unless he is still waiting for $2.60.
how did i miss these? too late?McInnis 03 said:
OA's NET $25C is taking off right now.
I wouldn't buy them here since I just sold a bunch.AgShaun00 said:how did i miss these? too late?McInnis 03 said:

When picking up the put and call, what should you look for in terms of the difference between the premium of both? Would you want them to theoretically be the same or slight difference? Just trying to understand the mechanics of this.oldarmy1 said:
Expiring today $290 Puts under $0.55 would be a hedge against all of your glorious gainers and SPY calls. If you want to grab the $292 calls for potential breakout then you cover both ends for decent chance to wipe other premium loss out and gain.
probably a good call.oldarmy1 said:I wouldn't buy them here since I just sold a bunch.AgShaun00 said:how did i miss these? too late?McInnis 03 said:

Too much to give an easy response. Depends on your major positions. I'm call heavy out to the 13th, so for me this is intraday protection of a complete failure sometime today. Not expected but always possible. So I pay a little more to be close to the Put side and then juice it with a cheaper call that serves to negate.BearkatRunner88 said:When picking up the put and call, what should you look for in terms of the difference between the premium of both?

Well said .... Personal responsibility + each person should set financial priorities in your life. Like I tell my kids, it is those little things you buy monthly that add up quickly and are a significant part of your spending that can be eliminated easily. Do you really need to spend $5+ at Starbucks 15-20+ days a month.oldarmy1 said:
True, but we should also say "If you haven't invested in yourself and are being reminded that it's up to you then please don't speak about those who did, and do."
I went without cable, drove a clunker, didn't dine out when money was needed to invest. I don't drink but I challenge anyone this Friday to go to your nearest grocery or convenience store and watch the number of obviously poor people grab cases of beer.
In this country 99.9% of anyone with financial struggles (exempting mentally ill) are self-inflicted or a choice. So choose wisely.
What's the plan with this one? You holding over the weekend?CrazyRichAggie said:

Screw you guys and your OTC stock.... that I can't buy until next week.Aggies75455 said:Dale Earnhardts Stache said:What's the plan with this one? You holding over the weekend?CrazyRichAggie said:

Hold. This hasn't really moved like this before and I don't think the weekend will change anything. If anything it will increase Monday. I think we touch 1.70 today.
Did you just open the account? It's an OTC stock, if so you can't use your "insta-deposit" credit and have to wait for the funds to clear.chrisfield said:

Beautiful call - I love this thread!Fightin_Aggie said:
Was looking at GLUU today. Earnings tomorrow. Strong balance sheet doing online pay2play games with a Disney game coming out soon.
Hadn't seen it before. Curious if anyone else had any thoughts
Yeah, that worked well today.59 South said:
Can't believe nobody has mentioned the near perfect model T on ROKU. If you entered those 130 calls in the first 15 minutes you should have been unloading them on the flash above 132.
Take away those debt riddled poor consumers and youd have to become a bear.oldarmy1 said:

Yeah, I can't buy it on TDA either and I've had an account for a while. So you have to just sit there and read about everyone else making a lot of money on it and rubbing it in.chrisfield said:
