What are current calls on this? I'm in a 145c Feb 19
I am in the same and just doubled up. Last time OA was pounding the table on a trade a just dipped my toe in and missed out. Not this time!

This post is not sour grapes, pointing fingers, or being ungrateful. I've made a lot of money in a short time thanks to OA and the regulars here.

This is a warning to newer traders like me - don't get greedy. 3,4,5 of the options in a row had hit big and quickly (bigly?), so I entered an AAPL position 3x larger than normal based on the overwhelmingly enthusiastic sentiment.

Guess what? The one time I did a 3x trade, it's the option that went to zero. Not all of these are gonna hit. Keep your positions reasonable. There will be more scores.
This is extremely valuable experience being shared. Take heed. Regardless of who posts positions the disciplines need to be set in stone for growing traders.

I might add that, although Buffet sold some of his AAPL holdings, it is STILL his largest holding...

I still see it moving above $150 and as high as $170. Everything is negative on AAPL. Short volume doubled. Spotify competition pressure. Warren Buffet selling some and entering 3 new positions.

But AAPL still is the King. Has designs on 20 new technologies and leadership that knows how to innovate and select the right things to focus on.

AND AND! Has a shareholder meeting in 3 days. Let's just see how it does.


So you're saying I should double up on my March 136 calls.

Anyone considering $RIG? If we reduce shale play production, would we not go back to offshore drilling? Higher oil prices would support that as well. I'm watching this one looking for a potential entry.
I could be dead wrong, but aren't the economic and political factors that are reducing shale production even worse for offshore?

Economically, shale production isn't dropping because of lack of supply. It's dropping because of lack of demand. I think offshore isn't lucrative until all the onshore shale acreage is drilled and production curves drop due to less of product in the ground.

Politically, there's plenty of private shale acreage that can't be touched by executive order, whereas dang-near all of the Gulf is federal. And really I think it's the economics that's key. If onshore, private lease holding were tapped out, the politics would drift away. It's easy to play games and act like you care when there's plenty of drillable oil still in the ground.

Something to point out is that 99% of the short term trades on this thread, fintwit and retail in general is purely Beta based and not by finding any Alpha.

This strategy will only be successful in a trending market like we have had since 2016. You can clearly see this on a day like today - markets are barely red and I'm sure many are seeing deep red in their ports due to the high beta names that retail heavily trades.

I see mentions of people wanting to do this for a living. You have to have an alpha based strategy if you ever want to do this for life. If you only rely on beta as a strategy, its always feast or famine, and if you play long enough, you'll incur heavy losses.

Trying to learn options, and scheduled for OAs course next weekend, but I own EBON, is it suggested to do the same? I got in around 6.40, and sold net free, but would like to experiment with options.

I know people cant offer financial advice, just trying to learn.

Wrong emoji, sorry

The reason I asked is EBON March $15 calls can be sold now for about $3.00. That's $300 per 100 shares (1 contract) you sell the call (right) to for someone to buy them by March 19 for $15. You get $18 total if called out on those. If they don't exercise them then you keep the $3 X 100 = $300 and move on.

These are a great way to make money on shares you have zero cost basis remaining.

NXTD

I entered at $2.10 and added at $2.20. Sold March $7.50s for $0.30. Gives me a cost basis of $1.85 (right at major support) or called away for $7.80 total. I'll take almost 3.5X on half my shares should that happen.

Edit: Also sold March $2.50 Puts for $1.05

I sold some March $5 puts a week ago for $1 when it was in the $6.40 range. They're holding up pretty damn strong here actually. Can't believe they're still $0.625 each.
