LeeAnn 11:02 AM replied to a thread:SPX & dollar inverse correlation - see it now? Do we have to have this discussion again? We all see the correlation. Did you see that it is at time unreliable in all the charts I posted? That was the point. Damn, man.
aztecs99 11:02 AM so, took profits down
Kingpin 11:03 AM seriously LA.....good point, you can find multiple things with inverse-correlation and post them as the reason we saw recent market weakness. its always something. (edited)
LeeAnn 11:04 AM https://explosiveoptions.slack.com/archives/C9C9RC5AB/p1599737465301700
LeeAnn Like I said, on a long term, backwards looking basis, that's right. On a day-to-day basis in the present, it's not that helpful. It has not been a good forward looking or reliable indicator lately. It can be up and the market down and it can be down with the market donw, etc..... Posted in #eochat | Sep 10th | View message

Blueace Buckeye 11:43 AM FYI...I share a brief thought from the Saut Team this morning...."current action has us thinking of trader Jesse Stine's "buy, cry, die" bottoming setup in his book Insider Buy Superstocks. The pattern forms when three successive new lows are made in a short amount of time. The first low everyone and their mothers want to buy, the second low makes those buyers cry as they double down on losing positions and the third low makes them want to die. We want to buy when those others are dying."

Kingpin 12:21 PM this new iphone may have the same camera samsung released in 2011
Neil M 12:21 PM @aztecs99 what do you mean? Apple usually releases their phones in september and this year they did not. Price isnt doing much because of it. They are expecting a super cycle for the 5G phones.

aztecs99 12:23 PM added some 327 at 2.65 spy puts for fri 9/25

LeeAnn 12:24 PM I think eventually 5G will be fantastic, but it's being pumped so much before it's reality that it's sure to disappoint (not talking Apple, just in general). (edited)
2
Doss the hoss moss 12:24 PM Added some spy 326 puts for Friday 1.5 earlier today
Justin S 12:25 PM Yeah i just never understood the whole 5G thesis for the past two years. It’s nowhere near the scale or speed to be a game changer (its barely faster than 4g in its current state)
aztecs99 12:25 PM what news drove the price of apple before the stock split?
LeeAnn 12:25 PM It's current state isn't 5G.
12:26 It's just labeled that way for marketing. But it's not the actual technology if you read the fine print.
1
John H 12:26 PM the key point Justin, in that current form, technology is seldom fully comprehended until it presents at scale. (edited)

Chuck 12:27 PM 267.89 200ma support on 15min for QQQ qqq 15min.png
CW 12:27 PM Yes, the 5G standard is considerably more powerful that 4G. The initial implementation will not meet the 5G capabilities, but it will get there. And fully implemented 5G is better than most people's wifi. (edited)
Neil M 12:28 PM @aztecs99 aapl services growth moved the stock this much. Last ER call, cook said their services are growing like crazy. This new phone release has "potential" for another super cycle so it will be a hype release when it comes.
aztecs99 12:29 PM stock moved much sooner than that july earnings report

Charles L 12:31 PM Aren't these terms severely abused by the marketing departments at these carriers? I mean, I'm reading that the theoretical speed for 4g is 300 Mbps, 100 is realistic, and as an example Verizon 4g LTE actual speed is between 5 and 12 Mbps (edited)

Chuck 2:29 PM My heart goes to those new traders getting hit with margin calls. It is a terrible feeling. I cried when it happened to me and sold my positions in late December of 2018. If I was able to meet that call on the futures position I would have survived.
Blueace Buckeye 2:29 PM Yom Kippur is Monday....remember....sell on Rosh Hashanah buy on Yom Kippur.....after these last couple of weeks....hope this repeats again
aztecs99 2:29 PM ummmm...are you talking to people in theroom?
Doss the hoss moss 2:30 PM I have yet to have that happen to me
aztecs99 2:30 PM chuck, that is
Blueace Buckeye 2:30 PM I'm not Jewish....but it would be just fine with me....I'd like to put a chunk back into the game

Vedula 2:31 PM no all of sudden Wife's have lost confidence in husband's abilities to make money. Hence puts. My wife sure lost
2:31 YES Justin.
Blueace Buckeye 2:31 PM Chuck...probably a lesson you don't intend to learn again....right?
Vedula 2:32 PM yes
Chuck 2:32 PM Never again.

Chuck 2:32 PM My mind was all messed up back then. I went in to big too early. Revenge trading a previous trade that I sold out of too soon.
Justin S 2:33 PM Put call barely moved today
Blueace Buckeye 2:33 PM In all our years in the industry....35+, we only permitted one client to use margin and that was to pay cash for his home before selling his home....and it worked out fine....he had an account of a few million

aztecs99 2:37 PM i don’t understand the comment here about margin calls....first, you can't buy options on margin. it's a cash vehicle. and if you're playing options in a margin account, and you don't adhere to risk mgt, you've got other problems
Blueace Buckeye 2:38 PM
Amen
aztecs99 2:39 PM 6 yrs of the chat room, i have yet to hear of anyone here having a margin call...anyone?
Ricky M 2:39 PM Nope
Brian B 2:39 PM negative
Blueace Buckeye 2:40 PM Never!!
Ricky M 2:40 PM Risk is premium paid
Brian B 2:40 PM Me no play with the Margin
Brian P 2:40 PM I've definitely had margin calls over the decades. Not recently; lessons learned.
Sam 2:40 PM sold some SPY Sept 30 320 put’s for 2.5 under my SPY Sept 30 325 puts. This is the second time. Now a credit trade.
Brian B 2:40 PM I could hang myself 6 ways from Sunday on my own never mind with extra leverage
2:40 lol
Ricky M 2:41 PM I’ll dance with ms. Margin for day trading stocks but that’s it
Charles L 2:41 PM options give you plenty of leverage and a built-in loss limit already. Still, some go overboard with options position size, no idea of the value of the underlying they are exposed to. I think that's a big problem for newbs. (edited)
DAttardi 2:41 PM massive neg cumticks here
Chuck 2:42 PM IWM at double support. 100ma and 200ma pretty much identical
Neil M 2:42 PM the margin calls are for people trading heavy shares, many people like to use leverage x 4 when they trade shares and if they get it wrong then they puke during days like today.
Charles L 2:43 PM I've had that sick, stunned feeling before, not nice
Chuck 2:44 PM
I thought margin calls were more of a futures phenomenon. You can't get much leverage buying stocks on margin
aztecs99 2:44 PM added some 324 spy puts for fri at 2.69

Chuck 2:44 PM The more volatile the stock the less margin you are allowed typically (edited)

aztecs99 good IDEA to take some down on roku..... Posted in #eochat | Today at 9:41 AM | View message
3:15 why are they zero?
3:16 if you took enough down to cover your costs, easily done at the open....you have about a free ride to friday
3:16 is everyone just twisted around in this market?
3:16 too trusting of these short term moves?
3:17 not believing that volatility means BIG moves in both directions?
3:17 are you hoping/praying for your positions to come back?
3:17
are you waiting to long to take profits? 3:17
are you over your skis in positions? 3:18
are you listening to others spout off crappy advice and nonsense rather than paying attn to the market action?
3:18 are you guessing?
3:18 ask yourself all these questions...it'll help you get better sense of improving
3:18 a few more questions to ask
PeterK 3:18 PM stc 9/30/20 spy p out at 8.55 in at 4.65 thanks Bob
aztecs99 3:18 PM are you in enough cash?

Doss the hoss moss 3:29 PM @sanjay I wouldn’t
sanjay 3:30 PM thanks
Chuck 3:30 PM I think today might have washed out sentiment in the options market, at least to the bull side.
Neil M 3:30 PM @sanjay problem with google is, its the only company out of all the fang that needs us to re-open as its business profits are heavy in travel and many other things like that
DAttardi 3:30 PM no panic .. not sure tht'e enuff
Neil M 3:30 PM i would wait until you see broad market stable before buying google.
DAttardi 3:30 PM u get washed out w/ panic
Blueace Buckeye 3:31 PM Dave...agree...it doesn't feel like there's panic....indiscriminate selling....not apparent
Chuck 3:31 PM I am looking at premiums so far and no big gambling on TQQQ or selling vix puts. NDX call buying negative.
3:31 There were glimers of hope on the previous days, not today
Justin S 3:32 PM The put call is .7
3:32 That’s not panic
Chuck 3:32 PM The QQQ 14day rsi never hit 30 or below, so that might be a problem (edited)
Justin S 3:32 PM We are short term oversold though
Michael P 3:34 PM dkngdkng
Chuck 3:34 PM @Justin S does the put/call adjust for people selling options on the bid? I don't think someone selling a call or put on the bid should count towards the calculation
Justin S 3:35 PM No idea
