A nominal amount of stock as a lotto for earnings makes sense under the following conditions:

  • You believe in the company and would own the stock anyway
  • Sentiment is worth fading (AMZN was down 7% today before the report)
  • Position size and risk is sufficiently small. In the case of the $50K account it's a 6% position, but the risk really isn't that large. The stock wouldn't go down by 50%, at most it would go down 10%, which is a 0.6% loss. Tolerable IMO

This post can't be starred enough, i keep reading it and going back over that trade. Seems like it was executed flawlessly. Bought a share in the dump into close, sold a couple minutes later for 15% gain. No fear, no fomo. BSG ain't the only surgeon around here.

The last time ROKU rocketed to ATH, is was opening day of the summer olympics last year.

Today is the winter olympics. Fingers crossed.
Not to be a debbie downer, but I'm not sure it's going to ATHs today.

Sounds like we have a few cyclists in the group. I'd love to get together for a fondo. I raced road bikes for a few years, but haven't ridden much since covid hit. I'd like to start riding again and a target event would give me some motivation.
absolutely! and with this brutal weather, look into Zwift. I get my workouts and rides in regardless of weather. A lot of the pros now zwift as well. If not for zwift races, I wouldn't be in the shape I'm in. They are a blast and no wrecks! haha

and I'm in B/CS if you all ever want to ride around here

I'd settle for a regression to the YTD high.

This would be a wise approach if your timeline is not one that is short IMO. 223 shows to be pretty strong IMO

So just two days after the APL job numbers were bad, and the White House said the numbers would be bad but things weren't that bad, they not only come in with a positive number for January but beat it by 300K. They also revise the preceding two months upwards by 600K when those revisions typically come out 4-6 months later.

Sure looks like we've reached the fudging employment numbers stage of the administration's term, just like they did it in Obama days.

I'm over in Austin. I've had a Zwift account since back when it was free but I sold my Kickr in 2020 when someone offered me what I paid for it (it was a 1st gen with no less than 1,000 hours on it). I need to get a new smart trainer and then I'll hop on Zwift with you.

GOOGL trying for r/g. AAPL would be the last one to join the r/g pack, that speaks well for the bulls.

is there anyplace to track the after hours futures market?

I want to see the chart from last night as the NASDAQ goes from +2.3% to negative at the open today.

I can't find any such tool. it's almost as if after hours doesn't exist once the markets "open" the next day.

why do they even have after hours market when you can still trade it?

Watching $F for an entry after this sell off.

Any suggestions for a number? $15 looks good but I can't see it getting that low before selling subsides.

Now is a great time to snag a used peloton for cheap, if you're into that type of thing. People are dumping them. Most of them have less than 50 rides on them, and then was converted to a clothes hanger.

and the unemployment rate WENT UP with nearly an additional million jobs added

during the height of COVID

I thought Covid was the cause of the supply chain problems, high inflation, high gas prices, teachers can't work, lack of jobs created two weeks ago that Jen Psaki told me was caused by covid and the snow?

yet somehow the USA creates a million new jobs. but we need to have vaccine passports, booster vaccines, and masks now.

very cool! thanks- what does NQ stand for?

I assume that tool you are paying for as like a WeBULL or something? I am not a technical day trader I just watch "Meet Kevin" who is an insane technical analyst.

I dumped my $17.50 put this morning for a gain overnight. I then picked up $20.5C for 2/18 on the cheap at that moment. I think anything below $17 would be a good entry but the $17.50 level is right at the 144EMA( a fib level I'm told). Plus I think it will have a hard time breaking that level. If it does, there isn't much support until it gets to around $16.50

WTI over $92. We will be back in the 100s before summer.
With VLO up against resistance over the last two years, if it keeps going up, I can see them pushing through it and moving pretty quick. This is the 3 year weekly.

I bought 4 shares META as soon as they reported earnings and it was down 26% (around $234)

I don't really care if it is a few dollars above a future low-

it's still a hell of a discount from ATH and even the price of a year ago (which I think made it to $375)

I am a long term buy at the dips and hold for 20 years

What service do you use? If you use TOS/TD you can look at /NQ to see the futures charting action.

You can chart futures for free on tradingview.

NQ is Nasdaq futures. ES is S&P500 futures.

as someone who believes seriously in FJB- this is terrific.

the leftists did everything they could to destroy fossil fuels.

now let's watch them whine over the next 6 months as they realize the wind farms in Cali aren't going to save them from $5 a gallon gasoline.
