Apple is trying to break that downtrend line 2nd time with rather low volume.
Can it succeed?
I'm looking for opportunity to buy in my 2nd batch. hmm.gif

I would not chase. That's why I sell PUTs. If I don't get it, that's ok, I keep the credits.

The major catalyst would be China Mobile deal with cheaper iphone. If that one success, high chance super bull. shocking.gif
Anyway, I agree with you to stay cautious for now. Monitoring closely perhaps. My major concern is actually not Apple, but the overall market as SP500 is now 170x high high. sweat.gif

I'm still hoping for 10-15% will be good enough.
Scouring for shorting opportunity..

The stock that used to be weak aren't weak anymore.. like AAPL  sad.gif

whole world market bullish. do they really digest QE exit so fast? hmm.gif
do you think this could be the last leg before massive sell down for QE tapering? unsure.gif

Don't jinx it yet.
Lots of resistance between here and the last known high: 688 (this is when iPhone 5 was released)

By the way, where's our fav AAPL fan? I think he should turn up now.  biggrin.gif 
Hopefully, he manages to recover his calls spread after this big roller coaster ride.

I doubt he managed to deal with that long draggy drop. He was so over-optimistic that time, I hope he didn't get loan to buy shares. sweat.gif

I hope he turns up.. I don't really wish anybody to lose money whether they're bull or bear.

You're correct. One cannot be overly optimistic over a stock whether it is AAPL or any company.
This market is vicious and at anytime it can turn around and bite you and teach you a hard lesson.
I learned my during the dot com bubble days..  sweat.gif

Just need to be discipline and follow the trend.  nod.gif

dot com bubble must be damn painful! sweat.gif
Now i like apple because it's cheap, cash rich, strong cash flow, still super strong and unique brand even after 2 to 3 years of non-event. When it finally decided to pay back some of its cash to the shareholders, I think it's time to buy.
When it was 700, it's not that cheap if without strong growth, which is uncertain since being attacked by Samsung fiercely.
In fact, my US friend who doesn't concern on Economic news actually have no idea Apple was being attacked by Samsung. He thinks iphone5 was good, he has no desire for a big screen phone.
However, I may sell it if it gets expensive without clear growth path. hmm.gif

Waah.. here comes the pull back. Everything 'ang' 'ang' (red red) tonight!  biggrin.gif

WMT (big retailer) missed earnings (Dow component)
CSCO (big tech) also missed earnings, weak guidance - placing blame EM for slowdown in business.
CAT (machinery) pulling back as well - part of Dow component

Eventho with better initial claims, futures are selling off.

Ready for some shopping?  brows.gif

Did IBM miss earnings?

No, in fact, it beats market expectation. The selling down is more on uncertainty of its restructuring process, as well as doubt on its cloud business facing high competition from Amazon etc., I guess. laugh.gif

is APPL a good buy even at $500??
APPL haves been under fire lately ... be it their product line up... or factories in CHINA.
I personally think that it would be great purchase if it's under 400. biggrin.gif I missed the chance and have been following closely with their news.
*
I also want to know. biggrin.gif
However, I'd rather wait for pullback before adding position. Before any kick ass product announcement, it's all uncertainty on Apple. cool2.gif

Has anyone took a look at Indonesia stock index (IDX) lately?  Really busted to pancake level.  shocking.gif

Anyway.. 3 years chart indicate this maybe good chance to buy at the lows (22-23) level again for bargain hunting.
