A DAY EARLY

I was a day early on my pain trade call.

My original call from the weekend is that this week we’d work off overbought conditions by consolidating. Til this point, the consolidation seemed a little weak. We needed to see a gap up to see how the market would react.

I like energy names here on the day if crude finds a bid. Top pick: $OAS.

Other than that, I am tempted to take on some longer dated $LULU calls. I’ve been trying to do less this week as the market goes nowhere, but these two ideas I like at these spots.

More later,

OA

    Leave oil alone, it doesn’t like iBC.

    Short ES at 97-00 level. Risk is only a couple points.

    I have a small order in for UWTI @ 10.24 to act as a hedge against my short. While price will dictate, I anticipate a smaller build than the API in the 10:30 EIA repor and the possibility that oil is bid for the next several hours.

        Pivotal report today. I’m long via SLCA. Planning on holding SLCA longer term, but today could kill any prospects of a recovery in the oil patch.

    OA: +1 on space ghost pic; +100000 on transparency. IMO this had a gap and crap feel at open; starting to develop into a chase higher.

    Hmm, sold all WING stock Friday and checking out Dec 35s, seem pretty cheap with a chance to make 700% based on IH&S measured move to 34, which I figure takes all of Nov or slightly more…
