Buck. I bought UPS late last year at the worst time. I had a sneaky feeling that the recovery this year was fools gold. The retrace has cost me 12% of that position. Thank goodness it's my 3rd smallest position as I only bought 100 shares. What was it that you saw/suspected that led you to believe a huge earnings miss was coming?

I hope you didn't short BAC based on my comments earlier. I'm long since 2009 at roughly $8 and have watched it stall around 30 for the past 18 months, never seeming to break through. For the record, my recommendation was to wait for a dip to the 26-27 range and pick it up there for a guaranteed 10% pop.

Bigfnpoo HEAR is perplexing to say the least IMO..still holding my shares and have scalped profits off of puts but it's been a turd since last ER no other way to say it.Look at MC it's a joke at this point..

Gamble I just liked the chart (BAC)for a put..been putting the same strategy to work on my watchlist and it's been pretty good so far.Thats been my worst option trade by far and I only lost around $800 and was holding 30 contracts.Ive had several small losses trying to nail SPY but have also had some easy profits.

Same goes for UPS, I also hit FDX with a few puts(3) at the same time cause the charts were nearly identical setups...the results were fabulous!!

I know you fellas are a bit conservative when it comes to investing but check out KGKG..its a pinky but the news theyve put out last few months has been IMPRESSIVE.Lots of new distribution deals and plan on being profitable before year ends.I got a ton of shares in the .07s

OMER has just slowly crept up into 19s looking to shed some after ER around that fib line over 21..its coming.Can make back that 12% from UPS here Gamble,you shouldve just bought the 13s bro!!

Also just before starting this post I picked up a bunch of calls on SLV May 17 $14 strike paid .11...opened a swing position yesterday in an oldie that Wall will remember me trading CHK got in at 2.88 willing to add here chart looks like 2.70s are possible..

SPY options are insanely fun to trade!

People make this harder than it has to be IMO..

More SPY puts today and again I closed them way early...once it broke under 292.50 I loaded up and sold just under 291 it kept sliding all the way to 289.50

Missed a good trade in DWT didnt think oil would continue to slide..

SLV is ugly but not much tied up there will let those ride if they expire worthless no biggie

CHK have an order set to add at 2.68 theyve come close to me but not yet..

I thought I'd mentioned USAT in here before?

Sorry yall,not that anybody is buying shares of what I post but USAT has been straight fire for over a month now..I think 1 or 2 red days in the last 25 days of trading

ABSOLUTE monster trade for me.I went in heavy low 4s and just been watching everyday.

Cant believe I was so stubborn with CHK..I thought it might hit 2.68 and maybe see a quick dip lower but 2.68 for sure would be there.Missed my buy 2 days in a row by just a few cents.Shouldve waited to buy anyway I saw 2.70s on the chart.

ER comin,looking for 3.30 exit depending on price action hopefully more.

Expected PR from OMER for their call but nothing yet...love how its traded last month or so...really shouldve parked more cash here after Xmas. Closing in on $20 just the announcement prob good for a small bump in vol and price then the surprise results..I'm thinking maybe $23 is possible in relatively short order.

Held SLV contracts I will get 100% off of those next week IMO, just need SLV to hit 14.15ish and I think we see 14. 20s/30s next week

Anybody with some trade ideas would love to hear em!!

I picked up CVS at 54 earlier this week. It's been in a horrid slump from 82 and are transitioning after the Aetna buy out. They took a one quarter loss to work out all of the financials, but their future earnings look solid. The stock, and the entire sector, are being unfairly punished for political reasons (fear of Democratic health care reform). With the economy humming and unemployment hitting a 52 year low at 3.6%, Trump is in great shape as far as 2020 goes. If you think any of the Democratic losers could possibly be elected as president, maybe you don't like CVS as much as I do.

Oh yeah...it pays 3.75% as well.
