    I see the CALLS made a shallow move. I never got a signal for CALLS. Was watching Friday, but never happened. I show the chart with pressure down and sideways. Don´t know what that means? I tried to do a CASH money CALENDAR, but couldn´t make the TOS CALENDAR order list thingy work for me. It keeps defaulting to April and May. When I wanted April short and long JULY. I could change the MAY box to JULY, but the spread box would not change price in that box. With a bad internet connection on Friday afternoon and a bit of time trying to make the order work, I just gave up and wrote the ASK premiums down on paper and will make a paper trade experimental test of it, to see what happens this coming week. Probaby my Guardian Angels on the other side in another dimension protecting me?
    In the meantime, I had decided to not waste the week coming and was going to do a STRANGLE, but was unable to get that right either and ended up with a STRADDLE for $2500, 5 contracts. July month. It worked okay a couple of weeks back, so thought I would try it again. All else failing. Still testing and learning some of these classical strategies, but on paper for the moment. 5 out of 6 tests on paper worked out last week. Made money. Trouble is, it wasn´t real money. Give it another week on paper, before risking REAL MONEY. Want to learn the nuances.

  7. I couldn't stand it anymore, and sold AAPL 520P Weekly @ 4.4. Willing to keep the stock. Maybe dumb move before earnings, but I still think AAPL is a good stock.

  8. Only dumb in the sense that the May 500P is at 5.60 and all of the realized vol will occur on the day after they report. The July 430P is 5.00 mid and expires prior to the 2nd quarter release.

    My guess is that the July 430P will open under 3.00 (on 4/25).

  9. I like your JUL 430P idea - seems much safer with that strike price. I was thinking of annualized returns, but as you said the vol should come in and you could exit right after.
