Manic posted his buy the BA put at the bottom of the bollinger band, which did not make any sense. He should have waited until it breached the top band before executing.

I've heard mumblings about DUCK being a copycat, is anyone on here following SAM and can they advise if DUCK is indeed a mirror for SAM?

One thing I've noticed is that I catch some of DUCK's calls IMMEDIATELY and within 3-5 seconds I'm checking the option price adn it's already moved 10% from what he's stated his number was. This could potentially be the case, but could also represent a delay in a call made by someone else that he mirrored after engaging.

Been following both less than a week, they definitely are playing lots of common stocks, but those are your typical day trade big ones...

Duck also talking about LUV, X, EBAY, etc that Sam
Never mentions


Small sample size, and not defending one or the other.. also only getting my intel from their free twitter

I've seen some very similar numbers, but haven't been paying close attention. I can keep an eye on it and see.

I think someone already mentioned this, but would not surprise me if the same person/group has multiple of these types of accounts.

Some accounts will hit, some won't. Ride the "followings" from the account that hits -- quickly turn it into a premium service to collect quick profits while building up the next one.

I'd be cautious of an optionsniper repeat...

Funny you say that about optionsniper...noticed that duck uses sniper a lot and was wondering if it may be him.

Agreed about multiple accounts and see what sticks. Out of all the ones I've seen, Sam seems to be the most legit and one of the ones I see most copied. Not saying that because I follow, but there are some people that are definitely following him and posting as their own. He caught one last week where the guy literally DM'd Sam a question that his follower asked him, and then answered that guy on his service with the exact numbers Sam gave him. He posted the screenshots.

If any of y'all are still holding FB, it may try to form a cup that it has been working on since 4/30. It could push back to that 217 spike over the next couple days.

Bollinger bands or Fib levels, which do you guys prefer on a chart? If I try to use both, they seem to get too cluttered. I realize they are both useful, but if you had to use one as a first look, what would it be?

Edit to add: or VWAP?

Of course, the stuff I didn't follow Duck on... SHOP and NOW have all gone thru the roof.

SHOP went 11 to 28
NOW went 6.2 to ~17

Any of you guys ever used Elite Options? Just curious what their strategy and success are...


Uses levels same as manic. Less lottos and plays more for singles and doubles and taking profit on the way up. You need to be able to be near a screen a lot and able to make your own trades, not always easy to follow exactly what he gets into because he actually has really great timing before moves.

Same. Duck seems more engaged and thus far has had more winners.

To be clear, by uses same levels I meant same style of trading based on support/resistance/pivot/fib. They definitely come up with or post different levels for the same stocks and look at different stocks as their main trading focus.

So here's where I get into trouble. Those BA puts (2 sets) are doing well right now. I'm tempted to get out w/ a profit. But Manic hasn't given the signal. I know if I sell, they will be much bigger tomorrow.

The thing is you don't actually know that for a 100% certainty. Trade according to your risk tolerance.

well done!

From when I bought to when I sold I made a total of (get ready):

$7.22 on that SPY. Was in at $1.07 (2 contracts), Sold 1 at 1.36. The other at .88

Smh
sold for average of 130%.

try to time spy on back up right before close and missed it. lost 20% but sold. overall today was up $1480. small improvement over yesterday. I will take it. I know i have two options that will be 1000 loss coming. i will have a negative on friday unless i can make some trades to offset.

Was up $305ish before the big flush this afternoon. Only around $185 up for the day. I really only play 2 contracts on most plays and 1 contract on lottos.
