atticus' "ship it" vol trading journal

I wanna find a less correlated ticker.... MA or PCLN or something. Just so I'm not super concentrate aapl......my account is small but still!

 

Truly a crap shoot so don't look for much. Hit singles. The 665/695/725 looks ok, but marginal. $14.00 mid. If I wanted it I'd do puts assuming a bit of a bump in liquidity above 695. I would not look for more than $3 in it and would not hold it beyond Monday's close. Maybe do a one lot for kicks, assuming your regular size is a fiver.

 

Guaranteed loser. $5 strikes on a $650.00 stock is not a good trade.

 

Was trying to get it for a quick flip. Did not get filled, canceled order.

 

my 675 calender is doing good.. i'm in at 10.61 -sept/+oct trading i thinjk at 12.35 mid point..

620/665/710 in at 12.87 not much changed.. moving around abit but not burning into profit yet.. bought another one @ 13.07 in another account..

 

glad i sold my shorter winged 640 660 680 fly for profit today.. after hours its up and it would have broken my butterfly

 

^^and I quote....

 

turns out i was right... profit yesterday... competely gone

 

Still like the 665 fly? AAPL looking strong here.

 

I was just contemplating offing it. 12.65 mid. Want to wait a bit. If we don't close under 80 on spot it will be gone today.
