THE HORROR

Yep, caught a right hook this morning.

I took off RVLT, JRCC – as well as GME, JASO, GOOG, CLF, GME

I am also considering purchasing P and SOL.

After Hours with Option Addict members, focus on yesterday’s RUT set-up. It appears to be working.

I’ll be back to offer some words of comfort this afternoon.

Trade smart…

    Bought FSLR on the low 58 dip – could make a nice YOLO or day trade.

        Look at the 3 day pattern on this – they are playing almost identical. Don’t know if it will hit 61 again today, but SHOULD open high in the morning.

        Good question for OA – it already spiked to 65 yesterday. Either the trade is broken, or a GREAT entry point !

      Joined you on FSLR this morning, was already in VMW, SPLK has me spooked. Was in XONE from 10/25. CZR cash and entry permitting.

      If any of you guys are simply following and do not have a plan of your own, I would strongly encourage you to avoid any Novembers and look to December at this point. 6 trading days left and premium is going to evaporate very quickly if the underlying does not move.

      still holding my RIG Nov 46’s thinking we could see $55 and with time to expiry I’m watching it closely. But it really stands out in a sea of red on a day like today so that has me comfortable sticking here.

    Take profit on Dec 52.50 RIG calls and get back in on dip? Seems similar to your call about what happens 80% of the time in yesterday’s AHWOA session.

      Especially since the dip may represent a wholly different trade setup. This in my mind, is just another form of chasing.

      The volume profile disagrees. Really thin all the way down to ~60.

      See TRLA as a template for Z.

      You buy the bounce, I’ll take the short – plenty of room under 75 and hard to violate law of gravity.

        thanks lanforce. I was. But I am wondering if it is too late to enter now as I missed the breakout to the downside. What you doing?

          Just eyeballing. Learned that trading on days like today is Russian Roulette with 5 bullets chambered. If it breaks down in the 74.50 range I may buy some Nov puts.

      On Thursday, November 7, 2013, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) halted trading in all OTC Equity Securities pursuant to FINRA Rule 6440(a)(3). FINRA determined to impose a temporary halt because of a lack of current quotation information. Therefore, FINRA has determined that halting quoting and trading in all OTC Equity Securities is appropriate to protect investors and ensure a fair and orderly marketplace. The trading and quotation halt began on Thursday, November 7, 2013, at 11:25:00 a.m. E.T. FINRA will notify the market when trading may resume.

    If it’s all the same to everybody, I’d really like FSLR around 61.25 today.

    Carry On.
