Pitchforks, Torches, Fire and Brimstone

Here are the moves I made on the day:

Booked gains in:

GS Calls +440%
DECK Calls +85%
BIDU Calls +83%
WFR Calls +240%

Booked losses in:

BIDU Calls(105) -60%
LNKD Calls -35%
CZR common -2.9%

New Longs Added:

AAPL Calls
FSLR Calls (nailed the low)
MCP Calls
IVAN Common

I started rolling back some risk off the open and didn’t look back. The plan is to take off a few more gains into a gap up tomorrow. Into a gap down, I will be buying up more. Funny, but the $NYMO is actually negative here.

That was by far the longest trading day of the year thus far.

Posting watchlist ideas later tonight.

    OA, how did you manage risk on the option trades: did you place stop-loss orders (limit) or did you just instigate the sell order manually when you thought it was time to sell?

      I closed them manually.

      Impossible to use stop orders on OTM options.
