SENTIMENT SEEMS RIGHT

Man, what did I tell you about sentiment last week coming into this week? Market apparently wants higher.

I picked up June calls in $PYPL today and May calls in $SOHU.

At the moment, I am deciding between a Tesla or a Maserati with the winship this year.

I got in late last night, but the doctor visits are behind me. I’ll take some time to refocus on the blog as it has suffered quite a bit with all my personal issues in the last two months.

Hope you guys are killing it today.

    Still up 1% today. I went neutral on the long bond this morning by buying TLT calls, APRIL 130 for .90

    Bot more TZA at 11:30 and 11:50.

    So far my lowest price has held.

    Feels dirty to go against my thesis if only for 24 hours.

    As a younger man (pre-Tesla), I parked cars at a beautiful building on the beach in Santa Monica. I got to drive (albeit a very short distance), virtually every luxury car you could imagine. There was something about the Maserati… So effortlessly cool.

    normally after a big up day on wednesday of opex week you get a theta killer thursday…i’m thinking it’s different this time and we just go up.

    too much skepticism early this week. at some point the fear of missing out will take hold.

    Another similar find as OA… this Im more happy about than any gains! Picked up SOHU calls yesterday, FEYE, and TWTR calls Monday and yesterday.

    Serious FOMO on GPRO and FIT. More prescient calls by Jeff. You deserve a Lambo dude!

      I put on some $VXX as a hedge and have an order in for $ADP puts (worst service provider my business have ever had – only because we are not in a Comcast district).

      No – looking for this to run – check out the volume profile on this puppy – if people start deploying cash, the name recognition and FOMO could provide a huge catalyst to the upside

        Does the big unfilled gap concern you going forward if you’re holding?

        Same question with energy / mining stocks’ gaps. Don’t most tend to get filled?

            OA vol gaps are associated w price gaps though right?

            No, they are associated more with time and volume.

            It seems,to me, like every time you show a daily chart for example, the vol profile, i.e. vol pocket is at the same spot as the price gaps? Sorta fundamental sorry I’m confused?

            Here’s my trade in $X I closed out. http://ibankcoin.com/option_addict/files/2016/04/X.jpg

            You can see the gap, pocket, hole, or _____ in $X. Price gaps don’t have to be involved.

            Heckler – yes that’s true…volume comes in at extremes. I’ve never heard the volume profile referred to as volume gaps though. But that brings me back to my point I guess. Price gaps tend to get filled almost all of the time, which is another way of saying prices tend to gravitate to the areas on the volume profile that have the bulk of the volume (assuming volume spikes occur at price gaps).

            That is actually a false statement. I say that because I answered “True” to that on my CMT exam, and it was marked incorrect.

            So back to your point, I am not worried about a gap in $FIT. Maybe I should be worried about the 5 consecutive gaps in $VALE though. Maybe those should have filled too?

    It’s is the first time I’ve seen an article like this in a loooong time:

    http://www.etftrends.com/2016/04/investors-returning-to-stock-etfs-for-sixth-straight-week/?curator=thereformedbroker&utm_source=thereformedbroker

    With tech and utes leading the way simultaneously, it’s tough to argue that this is the smart money charging in.
