Here are my morning trades in Apple Stock and as you can see my first trade is above the put price Amy sold. https://www.fullyinformed.com/members/biweekly-put-selling-trade-alert-apple-stock-profits-accelerate-oct-9-2015/
I don’t see why not. Same thing as with most trades, just keep a watch on it and close it if things look poor or most of the profit has been made.
I will get my trade up. Just a lot of other articles on the go and so little time. LOL.
Hi Donald. My market direction portfolio is set to profit either way for the unemployment report. Here’s is an outline of trading the unemployment report or any other such market moving news https://www.fullyinformed.com/members/quick-comments-on-trading-the-unemployment-report-on-friday-oct-2-2015/
This really has been an exceptional year for trades in JNJ Stock. I see no change coming next year yet either. The company is well-managed and the stock is easy to trade against as the chart pattern is well defined.
I’ll take a look at this. Not sure I follow it all but basically you want to know if I think this was done right? What would you like to know or need assistance with?
Not sure how many members are still in the Nike Trade. I will be posting my trades to date so far, but the returns have been excellent. I see no cause for concern with Nike stock. I am posting my article today. You don’t want to hold the calls, but trade them. I will post a link to the article here but I will be moving this topic shortly into a Nike Category.
I don’t know about the 2040 level but today’s action seemed bullish at times. The market is very oversold and so a bounce would not be surprising. I know JPM thinks 2100 by end of the year for the S&P. It really depends on revenue numbers which are going to be heavily scrutinized as they are released.
Hi Amy
With the jump in the stock I will be waiting to see what happens. I may pick up shares next week if I have to turn my trade in covered calls. I am holding the $118 calls naked at present. I have some other ideas as well which I am working on an article for.There are a multitude of strategies you can employ. The website is full of strategies that can continue to assist your trades. I will post you a short article as well.
Hi Denis;
This is a great stock for the Home On The Range Strategy. I’m glad you are enjoying the profits.I’d have to look at the stock again. The problem is they have diluted the shares so badly with their share offerings. ABX though I would think should survive so if you are in at $12 and sell puts at $6 and are assigned, you are basically averaging yourself lower as long as you have the capital to tie to the trade. Personally I think gold will fall below $1000 in 2016 but that is based on economic reasons and not on technical reasons so it is a personal opinion only.
This is such a great trade. You are more than welcome. I enjoy following specific stocks and this is a great company with a solid management team at present.
Busy selling the $48 put strike now in Merck for the same Oct 2 expiry. Here is the latest update https://www.fullyinformed.com/trade-alert-and-trade-update-merck-stock-mrk-sep-22-2015-the-decline/
It is the $26.50 put strike. The paragraph above the trade details heading discusses the put strike being sold as the $26.50 and mentions it a couple of times. The trade details was a misprint but it seems most figured out from the article itself that the $26.50 is the put strike I sold. Thanks Amy.
for intraday trading I use the 7 for %D and 21 for %K
No problem. Monday looks definitely down. I plan to add more SDOW positions in the morning. https://www.fullyinformed.com/market-direction-outlook-for-sep-21-2015/
I guess it depends on your outlook. If you think the market will fall further and break the lows of August 24 or at least retest them, you mayw ant to hold on. However on Monday if we get a strong move lower you should earn be able to earn more for the $25 call for October that interests you. Personally I think there is more downside ahead and as the SDOW is not an option but a share you can hold it longer without worry about expiration. Just my personal opinion.
These are cash secured puts. As long as there is cash to cover the trade you can sell puts in an IRA. It’s actually a good idea and one that we in Canada are not allowed in retirement accounts.
