          So this conversation occurred yesterday as $SNAP went red:

          Degenerate me: “I should seriously trim this $SHLD position and just go all in on $SNAP.”
          Responsible me: “No, no – that would be imprudent. SHLD still has a big move coming.”
          Universe: LOL

      WATCH LIVE AS $SNAP SHORTS ARE OFFERED TO THE STOCK GODS.

      That should have been the title. F*ck was I thinking.

    What kind of gains in the stock are you projecting? Test of the post-IPO high at 29, or something more modest?

    First thing my TDA platform did sound wise after the market open bell was the sound of my SNAP 24MAR17 weekly calls locking in a 100% profit! OA you da man!

    missed a chance to add more yesterday .. but essentially fully loaded here

    OA, you think there will be a chance to roll up the Mar weeklies into next month at decent pricing?

    Great fucking call. Followed you in a bit tardy, SNAP was @20.13, bought Apr in the money $18 calls for very little premium. Now up about 50% in a day.

    OA – when you say trend then gap, can you elaborate what that means to a more novice options trader?

    Where do you see this early next week?

    Thanks

      FWIW, since Thursday, I’ve been giving out the next day’s newspaper before its been printed. Perhaps if you continue to read, I might keep doing this?

        That would be great! But I’m more so asking if there’s a sentiment that I should now wait until tomorrrow to enter.

        Yes, I know it’s my trade. But I’m bought in.

    Now I’m a spectator, as my bid never got filled on Friday. My own fault.

    Glad I power loaded this week near money and next week near money 30 seconds after the opening bell after immediately selling down a good put position in NKE. Also got next week TWTR near money calls a little bit ago.

    What do you think of this $TDC retest? Looks good enough to me to add, particularly if the funds ear-marked for a last add to $SNAP may go unused. Though I won’t be nearly so presumptive just yet.

      Chart looks “bearish” intraday, perfect spot to reload IMO.

    wondering if I’ll be able to roll up my weeklys. chatter on the twits getting more balanced. Lots of people talking the investor psych trade here.
