    Good job 12631!! On another note, in markets like this, the good news about options is you can’t lose more than your defined risk. The bad news is you lose your defined risk. Once you get the clever idea to straddle,strangle,or condor the market takes a directional bias.

    Congrats OA! Much deserved as usual. Quick question about your trade alerts. Do they mention what contract price you bought at? For example, in the example above, would you say $RLYP $12 April 15 Calls at $.70? Thanks.

      “Long $RLYP Apr 15 calls $.70”

      The alert is sent at the point of purchase. I bought April 15 calls at a price of $.70 per contract.

      Or perhaps I misunderstood the question you are asking.

        I should have been much more clearer. I meant to ask, whether the trade alerts indicate what strike price? Sorry about the confusion.

          It did list the strike price.

          “Long $RLYP Apr 15 calls $.70”

          “Long” – purchased postion

          “$RLYP” – Stock ticker

          “Apr” – Expiry month

          “15” – Strike

          “calls” – ___

          “$.70” – Price paid

          April is standard April expiry. Had it been a weekly, it would say Apr1, Apr2, Apr4 or Apr5 and “wkly” to denote the week it expires.

            Ahhhhh I gotcha, got confused because April 15 is on a Friday this month. Makes sense now. Thanks again for clearing that up.

    Nice call OA! I had my finger on the enter button for a few April weeklies in $RLYP yesterday as IBB was catching a bid, got distracted. Arrgg. I was watching IBB based on our discussion After Hours, Tues night, about IBB and related stocks having a trend day Wednesday. Thanks for the mentoring.

    The positive move in oil cut my losses by 60% so I am positive for the week.

    Not sure what’s up with Natgas unless the build was less than expected.

    Holding my unhedged long oil o/n. Expecting another 2% upside before I’ll consider trimming the position.

    Nice pull guys.

    I ended up peeling back a lot of risk right at the open today. Was in a bunch of positions looking for follow through. Maybe its just a one day thing, though. Trying to protect some gains in case the whole EEM / XLF / IYT / TNX / European Banks rollover spreads into everything else.

        Yeah I went from about 50% long to 90% long yesterday right into the teeth of todays selloff even though I knew the whole biotech run reeked of chasing.

        I knew as soon as I saw the futures this morning that I got caught wrong footed and pulled everything after the open. I’m just staying flexible this year and open to anything. I’m sitting on nice gains so would rather be picky.

    OEW RecaP: “We can now count three waves down from the SPX 2075 high: 2043-2067-2034 so far. To keep the momentum going to the downside the 2019 pivot would be the next support level that needs to be broken. After that there is a large gap for the next support at the 1973 pivot.”

    Fed is having a meeting on Monday?

    http://www.federalreserve.gov/aboutthefed/boardmeetings/20160411advexp.htm

    Topic: Review and determination by the Board of Governors of the advance and discount rates to be charged by the Federal Reserve Banks.

    Obviously the big players know about this and we are still rallying, but wanted to put this on the radar.

    Oil is my bitch!!!!

    I was asked when my suggestion of 40 oil returns. “Next week” (referring to 4/4 to 4/8).

    39.18 and counting. OK chest thumping done.

    Seriously, we’ve overshot, the expected range in oil for the day. Trim some if u can. USO still needs to sell some April contracts for its rollover.

    Busy day (by my standards):

    -closed my $W weekly puts. I was going to be out of the office for much of the morning and I took $40.50 as a blessing. Of course just got back to my desk and kicking myself.

    -opened $HTWR shares for a trade.

    -opened $CREE in the long term account (with room for 1 add). Reallocating part of my $VA sale.

    -and if I catch a little momentum towards the close, I will probably book my April $BOFI to finish rolling that out to May.
