Short AAPL $632 I got 'em

  1. For this intraday timeframe, I use a tight stop. For the AAPL trade around 80 cents for instance.

  2. 80 cents on a $600+ Stock that moves up and down $15 a day? That's tight what is tight. Need great timing!
    I've never had much luck with Stops - too many whipsaws. So I just keep my Options net prices at a max -2% of equity, and try to get out before they hit zero!

  4. Unfortunately, you're probably right. I bailed out of my long calls today and took a nice profit. I'm going to try and get a better prices.
