How's that $18,000 in CHDN doing? Up $1200 in over a month. If you were really any good... that CHDN trade would have made you over $25,000 using options and 1/4 of the capital... but you don't have enough confidence in yourself to run with the big dogs.
A Trump win, as un-intuitive as this sounds, would probably knock it down because he is gonna drill drill drill, and natty will be so plentiful, they won't be able to store it all. It may be good for a few more dollars, but anything above its 100 day at $19ish, I would sell.

Buy some of the May 24th puts then. If it drops $30, you will only make 10%. Buy the $310 puts... at $15 and you'll make over 100%. Duuuh. So put your money where your mouth is. $310,000 to make $3000.... or $3000 to make $3000 Or do you lack the confidence to stand behind your short call? Personally though, since you haven't got one short call right... you might wanna stay on the bench and watch the game from where you're safe.

But we're gonna help Stoney today. WE LIKE TO TEACH. Say you did really do your paper trade on BOOT and bought it at $90... 50 shares cost you $4500 The May $95 calls that day were $2.75 (I just looked at the T&S for March 28, the last time it was $90)---> so you could have bought 16 contracts at $275 per pop. Results: Your $4500 would now be $24,800 Actual results: Your 19% on $4500 netted you a whopping $855. If only you believed in yourself Stoney, and put your money where your mouth is instead of being an ET paper tiger filled with self proclaimed grandiosity that we all see... sprinkled with heaping teaspoon of spoiled pomposity... you'd actually have some money. Stick with Van Stoney... I will teach you how to make real money in stocks. 355K unique clicks says it all. The readers want more Van!
