  1. Yeah, it's been all over the tech blogs. I doubt it does much for the shares. And the event will be after exp.

    Ok, yeah I just saw it. I'm in that Oct fly to 645 now.

    Also looking at a slightly bullish SPX fly here, as I think we may rally, also try to fade this vol pop.

    sorry about posting this in your thread atti,but your trading a lot of apple,theoreticaly in mp we have moved out of that upper bell curve and into the one below,if we stay below 641, the bottom of the upper bell,beginning of the lower bell,we will work thru a retrace of the 641-549 bell with the widest spots 604 n 572, areas where the most trades took place as targets, in this case supports on the way down,the narrow spot at 592 being sort of a gap fill between the 572-604...all aapl hype and companies projected earnings aside..THEORETICALLY ..edit, that might be an inverted cup without a handle
