Honestly a lot more fun playing pivots and briefly scanning the cheddar. Had some big wins on BA and IR short sells today. Nice not having to worry about IV crush and theta decay. Takes a lot more money, but you can use margin and set stop losses so you never lose too much

Between Roku, me accidentally selling all 4 contracts of Apple, and NVDA so far, his last few trades have done well for me.

I bought the SPY 5/15 $278P when spy was at it's intraday high at 0.71, before Manic mentioned it.

Playing well for me today.

Yeah he did good with the AAPL ROKU BA puts he mentioned yesterday, and the NVDA FB BA today.

The GOOGL and AAPL calls were poor, I'm just thankful that I exited those quickly before the bottom dropped again.

Many of manic's best calls are like this. I am literally ready at the screen when I get the signal, move to buy (seconds) and the price is way over what they say to buy at. I don't want to chase and don't get in.

So I haven't bought an option in 2 days. One thing I can tell you guys is that trading pivots with shares is a lot more fun and less stressful. I haven't hit any home runs, I made about $400 yesterday and so far up $200 today. That's with buying around $10,000 of shares at a time. I'm not good enough to calculate the IVR and theta decays but it seems possible to tell if something will probably go up or probably go down, and have a decent Range.

I need to learn more about "pivots", I know zilch.

Same here.

I assume those are just small changes mid-trend?

Yall can get the basic membership of Access A trader. It gives you 3 workshops about the strategy and how to implement it. It also gives you access to nightly recap videos of the day's action and a replay of the day (4 hour videos).

That is what I have been doing. Find good stocks, ride them up and then drop. I did this with Rubi, MOMO, DFS , SDC and a few others. I am up 42.5% YTD. My only downfall is that I don't have a lot of money in my Roth IRA so when I settled on Tuesday.I could not get into anything again until today. This time it was good because I was going to by $Rubi at $5.50 and it's in way below that point now.

My average net gain was 50% on the NFLX. I didn't hold it for the huge move to 2.92

I'm basically all long and need SOMETHING negative to help me balance. I've been snake bit by ROKU so many times though, this will likely hit me again.

i like duck but he is in and out too much with a ton of trades. manic seems to be a little slower pace and can follow better. i like them both but i need to pick one if i am going to do this.

Just saw him with his AAPL call, I'm not taking that knowingly. That chart is on an awesome uptick but I like that move on a pullback from here, not yet. Which obviously means that's a winning decision for him.
yay me. Won that round by not playing.
What was his call on AAPL?

I own a ton of shares and want to exit a large portion to deconcentrate. But I've been too antsy and greedy.
