Vertical Spreads for Aggressive Growth

  1. By the look of todays action, you could be right. This is why I kept the size of this position small and stuck with the 50 strike. I have a stop in mind, so we'll see what happens during the next couple days.:)

    HPQ looks almost ready to resume uptrend. I see the setup, and I'm watching for an entry signal in the next 1-2 days.

  3. I like the setup, but it is too risky right now. I'm gonna wait with you for the right timing to open a position. Either a break above 34 or below 32.:)

    I've also got my eye on AAPL, AMD, and CHK.

    Also looking to add more SPX spreads within the next couple days.:)

  4. Been trying to open some SPX call spreads this morning but I couldn't get filled. I might end up having to leg in if I want to get a good credit.

    What $SPX spread do you want to open?

  6. I was trying for some additional 1340/1350 calls, but I couldn't get filled before the drop today. We'll see where we're at tomorrow, maybe I'll open the put side.

    I understand now: OTM bear spread, probably May, currently at .6 / 1.15.

  8. Yep, but that credit isn't good enough.:(

    I think HPQ is ready to take off.

  10. Mind if I ask what you are using as an entry signal?
