Support for sell OTM vertical put.
Good Morning, The markets took me by storm yesterday and I was not expecting it to react as it did to the rate cuts. Nonetheless, the following weeks will bring volatility back to the market which is great for option traders. I did a quick and dirty of of AMD and decided to hedge my position to the downside. I should have done this yesterday but I didn't...
Good Morning Friends, It has been about 2.5 weeks since I last published on AMD. Yesterday it Reported earnings meeting analyst expectations. The price has now dropped to sit right on our lower trend line . My speculative assumption is still very bullish. You should be able to pick up some very nicely price slightly OTM call options on AMD today. This is due to...
Understanding The trade: As an options trader my goal is to identify trend change and utilize a breakout strategy to leverage profit off of major trend changes with minimal risk. Even though this contract does not expire till 8/16 I will be looking to take profit by late July as the rate of decay factor starts to come into play as the contract approaches expiry....

Albeit lazily drawn, I present the dreaded “vomiting camel” pattern. I’m not making this shit up. There’s actually a pattern you can look for that is a serious fucking bear when you do. It’s got this ridiculous name for obvious reasons, but here it is and I’ve decided on the 4/46 long put, 17 strike. It cost .66 and is at .69 as of 1053am 4/12. I’m not going to...
Abercrombie & Fitch ANF american Stock short opportunity at weekly supply level. Abercrombie weekly supply level around $27 per share has taken control, the imbalance is very strong with lot of room for price to keep on dropping much lower to lower weekly demand level. There is a great daily supply level around $27 that also gained control. Nothing to stop price...
OKTA's trend is bullish and has been for quite sometime. OKTA grew its revenue by 60% last year (2018). That’s a head and shoulders above most loss-making companies, especially in the cloud space and SSO. And the share price has responded, gaining 126% in the last 12 months. OKTA has reacted bullish more than bearish on earnings historically. Currently the market...
In the final week of January, NIO (NIO) announced the offering of $650 million convertible five-year bond to raise funds and utilize the funds “to pay the costs of the capped call transactions.” The bond offering closed on February 4. Tencent Holdings (TCEHY) purchased $30 million worth of its proposed offering, while Hillhouse Capital Management purchased $5...
Going to setup a trade using April $47.5 calls stop-limit $4.25 (tweezer top at $4.20 on the options) with a $1 stop. Risking $100 per contract. Upper targets low to mid $50 range. Only concern is that the gap from the last two days has no been filled, but let's see if the sellers jumping on at this resistance get squeezed up. Cheers!
While the SPY is fighting $280 resistance, AMZN has been making higher lows inside its major down channel. A break towards 1672 then 1723 (5% move from the closing price of today and the 200 day sma) looks to be in the cards as long as the overall market can break through 2800 on ES and hold. I also like that the daily has closed well above the daily 9 day...
A lot of volume came in on Friday closing as a doji at major resistance. Shorts are most likely hopping on board here. Going down to the 4H you can see there is an ascending triangle. My plan is to enter above February 7th's high with March $85 calls. Should be a strong momentum move to the upside if volume moves in on a breakout of the downtrend line. Let's see...
Descending triangle on AAPL 's faster timeframes. Looking to take the break of $172 with 2:1 target at 178 then second target of $185ish or upper downtrend line. Setting up an options trade with April $165 calls stop limit entry at $10.85. Stop will be at $9 (or $8.85 to make the calculation easier for more contracts/different risk).
BABA is breaking out of its weekly and daily pennant pattern so put in an order for March 165 calls limit buy 8.10 with stop at 6.10. Target is 180-182 on the share price. Let's see if we get filled :-).
SHAK One of my favorite setups is to take a stock long at the break of a resistance or break of support to catch the momentum of the move. Earnings are about 2 weeks out too so SHAK may rise into the ER like most stocks do. MY setup is taking the break of Thursday's candle with March $50 calls. Keeping a tight stop in case it's a failure on the break up. Target...
