Yeah, I'm in the same boat with you. My dividend stocks I don't want to sell, my MA's are fine, have a bond position I am thinking about exiting, but I have been holding it for 6 years and treated me well. Next week, I need a nice run up (nothing big) to sell Calls for 30 to 90 days out on some positions I want to keep and go from there. Those Calls I may ladder like a bank CD play and go longer than 90 days. Homework for the weekend. Have plenty of powder for a pullback.

So look at about everything then look ASAN and DOCU.

Relative strength defined.


Ran scans through the sector indexes (xli, xlf, xle etc) and most everything has already been trending down for several days except tech. Tech/qqq looks like the sector holding up the best. Once qqq goes, look out below.

SPY & Options Scalp Test

Well gents my 4 week SPY & Options scalp test is finished for Phase 1.

10k Cash Account
  • WK 1 - $3,780
  • WK 2 - $2,180
  • WK 3 - $2,160
  • WK 4 - $3,970 (lottos helped today!)

$10K < $22,090

Made a LOT of mistakes. Mostly not cutting losers quick enough and not letting some winners run correctly. Will adjust and regroup and make some adjustments and see how the next 4 weeks goes.

While really good ROI, it is hardly anything someone can hang their hat on. It is a small streak of luck until otherwise proven.

Well....maybe Gus

WOW...they tapped my SPY 414.40 at the close.

Let's see what Monday brings but I am hopeful for a gap up to start.

Ugly daily chart look though.

That is absolutely incredible. Do you feel you're taking risks that you wouldn't take with a larger sum?

No that was the point of my concept. I did not YOLO or all on black or red to inflate. My goal is a system that can be used for income generation/cash flow. This isn't a wealth building thing IMO....except I did roll profits in to ELOX and a few MAs then moved the shares into that account. I am a big believer in what OA and 30K do for wealth building.

Trade sizes were from 4%-10% of account value with the most being an AMZN at about $1700 or so.

5-10% of an account isn't normal and would never do that in my main account on an options scalp. I manage them closely to levels. The 5-10% I guess you could say is never 100% at risk.

I did take a few in the backside for letting something on waaaay too long in 'hope'.

Between that and ASAN's and BIGC I was up 6 figures on an absolute blood red day.

Lot of study to do over the weekend. Hope all faired well.

Betting we continue to 413.44 before a rebound.

But I also bet we would continue yesterday's move this morning. So.

Right? Always have to look for the bloody premarket and buy some options at the open if we get it.

Dang I didn't. Was really hoping for some run at least but was so weak today.

Maybe next week I can. Kicking myself on the measly VIX 30% gain I took on those calls. The whole point of those is insurance and zero or great return.

Will never sell it. But...if it can prove out something of value to people will share it for sure. Needs time though. It isn't rocket science at all.

What some of you do on identifying real value long term plays for wealth building is the rocket science. I just look at pretty pictures and lines on screens.

Thankful I have y'all otherwise I'd be relegated to this.

RUN

Not sure if anyone entered it but I bought the July 55C when triggered close to end of day.

Its +2 ATR and has run the +3 in the past so really hoping for continuation.
Had crosses of the 8 on the 50EMA today and it also closed above the 100 & 200 EMAs for 1st time in a long while

Matching goal post in 2/2020 and 7/2020, But these 3 bars had me. Too much volume to ignore for me.

Hope it has some energy left.

So here's what is now in place. I juiced my July 30 $395 puts with Monday $415's when I tweeted that the move up off bottom last hour was clear level 1 short covering that actioned some losers thinking they were bottom buying.

After hours when we came under $413.75 I started buying shares against 50% of the $415 puts and barely executed my initial buy when it bounced to $413.85 so I quickly finished the order and now those are in the most excellent rocking chair position.

That late surge upward was the greatest gift cause I would bet money on days like today we end up back at or below lows. I did bet money.
