The Super Terrific Happy Hour

  1. Yeah, I've got my full-on bull on today. I like AAPL's pessimism going into this earnings release. I don't think they'll disappoint. Had a debit spread open on this since the end of June over 145-150. Thinking about closing the short side to let this run tonight. I have enough margin to short the position if we see a spike ATH.

    I wonder what the next iteration of the I-Phone (9) will be able to offer thats gonna be new. What more can they do with a phone for gosh sakes?

  3. Now with new, higher profit margins! Maybe less durable screens and more sensitivity to moisture to encourage repeat business and brand loyalty.

    I wonder whose move is bigger on the AAPL release, them, or QCOM.

  6. Another sweet call! This thread has been teaming with them the last few days. Though, honorable mention for @Chuck Krug for catching the lone bear in here.

    Any monkey with a buy button could make money today. I was just that monkey. Chuck actually went against the grain. You planning on holding overnight? I'd lighten my risk a bit with the specter of AAPL's release. That could buoy stocks across the board tomorrow capitalizing on this bullishness--it doesn't look like TSLA is too fond of gaps.

    Just crushed DRYS, went from -1300 to +146....... Once again, thank you to the people in my room who are all smarter than me, this wasnt my idea originally but the more i watched it the more it made sense........

    lol its not much but its a moral victory, after the open today and the bath on UA, i just had to tell myself not to do anything that makes it get out of hand and i kind of chipped away at it all day went up and down, and then finally found my white rhino in DRYS. :D

    Eat my ass Kalani, you dirt bag, i sold before you did. :D

    Wow! The VIX, VVIX, VXST, and now VXAPL are all trending down into the close. Highly unexpected for such an important earnings.
