cptthunder - did not connect withmy bud on Sunday. Looking to connect today.

HNDL - my Tech/Bond barometer having a funky day, but appears it's pointing more toward Tech/Bond issues versus being in a stabilizing area. Down $0.07.

T - Great news on the Warner Media/Discovery venture, but the T ~50% cut in the dividend got my attention. T shares currently up $32.47/+$0.23 (were up early at ~ $1.60). I'll be keeping an eye open to a dividend aristocrat play if T starts to slide.

Fruit is in a spot where IMO some weekly Call Spreads are somewhat easy money. It's trading down from the 8 EMA at $126.77 which is $1.75 below the 21 and 50 EMA as both of those are at $128.5. I don't do a lot of spreads but I have to think a Call Spread at $129/$xxx is a pretty safe play. Not a lot of premium but it's there for the taking, IMO. I got into a $129/$132 this morning for $.38. Small win that I doubt I'll carry to Friday because who the hell wants to be in an AAPL Call on Opex but for a day or two I'll see how it goes.

Thanks for the heads up, really appreciate it

Let's go bulls !!! Get with the program here.

Pullback day for #ES_F as shown in my weekend post, and expected after last weeks 148 point rally. As long as 4125-30 zone holds (important support May 4th) upside targets of 4205 & 4270 remain in play

4hr RSI (5) cooling off nicely towards oversold giving "fuel" for a new leg https://t.co/W6fQuKRkSZ

Buying AMC weekly 14C. It is a lotto so hero or zero. $1.11 entry

Dr Mike Burry (The Big Short) discloses a $534 million put option position in $TSLA today, his biggest position. Wow!

Well someone had to light the fuse, lets get ready for fireworks. Goodness

SEC 13F Filings do not reveal the strike of put options but I can venture a guess based on big put trades over last 2 months and open interest for Dr Mike Burry’s $TSLA put trade,
My guess Burry is long $TSLA Jan2022 $350 puts

We are at 414.50ish only $9ish all ATH. Think this is consolidation and chop.

A LOT lower than this if it wants to.

Think either Will or CNBC has their math wrong.

Hard to believe this trading day is almost over. Power hour coming up.

Which way will she go?

"Apple announced Pride Bands for Apple Watch."

This F'n company man.... worried about everything but shareholders and stock price.

They have over $200B of FU cash money just sitting in the bank. They can pretty much do what they want....

I'm sorry...well not... but that was my gut busting laugh of the day.

Much thanks!

30,120 open Int for the Jan 22 $350 Puts currently at 23.43.

I am not very PC. I am sure someone will be unhappy with me being immature.

I think TSLA rebounds a bit here to ~609 for daily 8 MA touch and hourly 50 MA touch, gets rejected, and down again.

Put scalp incoming with the rejection?

How long before one takes off the "training wheels" (thanks FJ lol).....

X number of trades logged?
Y number of days successful?
Z number of weeks completed with successful P/L?

What is your barometer?

I'm thinking I want to see and ride a few more trend days because what's funny is that the complicated days I'm doing better on paper than I am on the "easy" days.

AMC gets above $14.32 and I think we might have a winner.

I bought some 6/18 $15 calls last week, so hope you are correct.

Broke the intraday downtrend and has back tested it. So I am ready for it to get a move on now.
