BIDU options

  1. Should I buy BIDU calls or puts in the coming days? I nibbled and bought a BIDU call. It went down in value 20% already :(

    stock went from the 100$ low all the way to 820$ (pre-split price)

    and you buy a call option? not a very good trade even if it works out..IMO

    but I wish you luck
     
  3. ...here is a trade idea i posted in the stock forum yesterday:


    05-12-10 03:55 PM

    ....5/12/2010, BIDU @78.12, target $100......time, ~6 mo.

    ....wait for pull back

    ....go long a call option, strike just OTM (or just ITM if more conservative), time ~9 mo. (or longer if more conservative)

    ...select a time or loss $ amount to get out if it doesnt move in right direction

    ...select a time or profit $ amount to close if moves in right direction

    ....monitor market and position for changing conditions

    ....jmhdao
