may i humbly ask, do you guys trade on earnings
 ? meaning hold an opened position till the announcement announced?do you observe the option open interest of a stock that's going to make earning announcement as part of your decision makings? Yesterday, the call open interest as well as its volumn of AA showed a high value at ATM compared to its Put. This post has been edited by countdown: Jan 10 2013, 01:39 AM |

AAPL too expensive for a newbie like me. Most of the time, I trade with AAPL's suppliers which are closely correlated n more affordable entry point

QUOTE(zamans98 @ Jan 16 2013, 05:21 PM) Fantastic movement for Apple. Newbie, need lots of reassurance. Expectation of holding tight is due to "Stalled Pattern"?From 585 down to 485 and based on my assessment, 475-485 will be holding tight before next gap.

If new home sales improves further, this might give a good January Barometer that will lead 2013 as a bullish year.
aapl will bounce today... |

new home sales figure didn't deter or tame the bulls. Awaiting for a healthy dip before longing for short term of DJI.

QUOTE(zamans98 @ Jan 29 2013, 11:51 PM) no, he entered when Mother share price is $453.now is 457.39 Up 7.56(1.68%) Thank you.I had looked into the 5 & 10 mins aapl respectively, @ $453 mother share price, it was neither a dip of an uptrend nor a draw back of a down trend. What makes him to choose this long entry point  ? The only reason I can think of is @ 10 mins, it's a Bullish Harami candlestick pattern supported by volumn above average?? danmooncake?

QUOTE(danmooncake @ Jan 30 2013, 11:16 AM) Hey guys, did you read AMZN results? Rinse and Wash to the maximum! That's the reason why I seldom trade on earning announcement They missed on both eps and revenue BUT... stock price GOES HIGHER!!  EPS: 21c vs. 28c estimates Revenue: 21.27 bln vs 22.26 bln estimates P/E: 3000 Income fell 45% for Q4 and extremely thin profit margin. This how Wall Street works.. if you miss badly, it goes higher. P/E doesn't matter. If you meet expectation only, that's 10% haircut.  This post has been edited by countdown: Jan 30 2013, 10:45 PM |

do you guys keep records of your trades? Like a trading log and a trading journal?
Trading Log = Tracks your profit & loss. Trading Journal = What's your entry and exits point, reasons of selecting that points, signals that indicates which direction you should select and etc.. Thank you . |

QUOTE(danmooncake @ Jan 31 2013, 09:48 PM) IMO, traditional Feb will be a tough month to trade as the upside could be limited. So, be careful going long into Feb here. Hold on to your tight stops and be ready to short or get some puts protection now to protect your long position. tks for your guidance . Finance sector usually will be tough on Feb and reverse on Mar This post has been edited by countdown: Jan 31 2013, 10:08 PM |
