A Tip of My Hand

Yesterday I picked up calls in YELP and SODA as well as a chunk of shares in ZLC. I took off the SODA off the open this morning, and am riding decent sized moves in the other two positions.

At the moment, I am positioned in YELP, OPEN, BIDU, CRM, SHLD, FSLR and GS calls.

I have long positions in KNDI, ZLC, STP, JKS, LEDS, GLUU, STP, IQNT, RVLT, PACB, END, MTG, USLV, NUGT, OSGIQ.

On the day, I am considering calls in GMCR, SINA, and DDD…and longs in BLDP, JVA, GV, and BV.

What’s on your radar?

    LA: I got in late into Yelp today at $37 strike, cost 0.75. Also got SCTY yesterday $44 strike at about 0.48 after The Fly and RaginCajun both posted their info.

    Hard to compete with those good ideas there. FB above 25 can run. ACI also attempting to put in the 232nd bottom this week.

    Still can’t believe BIDU came back up, and I sold 70% of it at a steep loss.
    When BIDU hits $100 I will be consoled.

    I have 500 F July 17’s .05 basis and 3305 July 18’s .03 basis.

    Thesis: stock ramps into earnings 7/22. Sell entire lot morning of 7/19 or potentially at end of wide range / high volume day.

    Target 18.75-21 (expecting an upgrade or two before report)

    Thoughts?

      Monthly options expiration week may have a lot of zing, Bernak addresses the House on 17th, the Senate on the 18th, rumored topics sequestration, debt ceiling, budget deficit, and beige book comes out.

    Dear OA:
    Thanks for the lessons you posted years ago, on your blog. Now I let my winners run. But I need to learn when to stop.

      I started buying this back in the upper 5s. Was in the Chi area over the 4th. General consensus is people love the place, and the stores are nice. It’s a competitive sector, but they are growing nicely. I’m personally a buyer on a pullback my basis is much lower than 9$ tho.

    BX 20s and 21s for July with earnings on the 18th . I try to avoid earnings plays , but this one should
    discuss significant second half growth .

        Thanks for commenting . You’ve been a great addition to this site .

        I doubt very many here realize how much effort and agony it can sometimes be to try to help individual investors .

    Been long in SCTY, AMZN, FDO and weekly QQQ calls since I said I will be going long few days ago. Feel that banks will either fuck up the earnings calls later this week or traders will sell the news on whatever good they say. So going to start eeking out of longs and going back to shorts in couple of days.

    My losing position is SUPN July calls and GOOG weekly calls now in red. Any thoughts on those two? Should I hold or liquidate?

    my indicators are calling for a july 11-12 minor turn date and July 19th as a MAJOR turn date. Bulls are on the clock.

    Dear OA: According to another chart service, if CRM does not stay above $38.75, it should be sold.
