That's a very nice profit. Damn..

 

I reckon market sees a small bounce during trading and then finishes towards the lows of the day.

Usually when we open down below -110 we add and continue to add to -135 to -145 and if we pass -145 then we dip below -200. Let's see what happens today. Hate myself for not buying them weekly SPY puts last week mad.gif

Predictably enough, and just as in real life, AAPL doing its best to shove GOOG in front of an oncoming bus.

It will be very interesting to see if money that usually goes to hide in bonds will now go hide in AAPL instead, because AAPL guarantees a weekly return far superior to bonds right? biggrin.gif

There was a downgrade?

 

Ill be damned, there was!

 

CNBC: Apple received its first downgrade in nearly six months from Wall Street after an analyst doubted wireless carriers will keep offering giant iPhone subsidies, hurting profit margins for the tech juggernaut and world’s largest company.

 

“We expect post-paid wireless operators to remain firm in their plan to stunt the pace of phone upgrades in 2012 and we expect to see some initial evidence of their success in the current quarter,” wrote BTIG’s Walter Piecyk, a veteran technology analyst, in a note to clients Monday. “This will increase the need for Apple to grow its business in the pre-paid dominated emerging market space, in which handset subsidies are a rarity and the $600 ASP (average selling price) of the iPhone represents a big chunk of a household’s monthly income.”

I caught my 635/640 spread at a great time and got a 3.50 credit for it.

 

Also added GOOG 625/630 spread @ 2.4 credit

haha nice man! I got impatient, i was holding for almost an hour which is like 10x my normal morning hold time lately lol. My computer crashed when i went to sell the 635c at 7.30 (6 entry) and thankfully that helped and not hurt me when i exited at $8. They touched $11 now lol
