The trade we are making today is a move to repair the damage done on the long side of our condor spread. If you do not already have a position in Apple, Inc., then do nothing at this point. You can follow along with us so you can learn how to adjust a position that has gone against […]

I believe now is the time for us to leg in to the next part of our condor spread. We have already bought the January 2014 570 Puts and we’ve sold the February 525 Puts. This completed the first half of the Condor, which is a Diagonal Calendar Put Spread. Right now we are going to buy the […]

Apple stock pulled back to fill the gap just like we expected it to, so now is the time to complete the calendar put spread that we initiated yesterday. If you have been following along with this trade then you should already be long the Jan 2014 570 puts. Our goal was to wait for the stock to […]

We have had some great results with our Condor Spread in 2012. Now that we have a fresh new year ahead of us I thought it would be a good idea to enter into another condor spread with Apple, Inc. The time premium in the options I’m looking at is very high and this is exactly what we […]

I think now is the time to start looking for opportunities in the small-cap sector. The iShares Core S&P Small-Cap ETF is a great way to get long the small cap market while reducing the risk of having to find one or two small cap companies to invest in. The idea behind this trade is to sell a […]

On November 23rd, I sent out an alert to buy the January 2014 90 Calls because there were signs that Baidu was going to rally. The stock has rallied over the last six days but there is an inverted hammer at the top of this move that tells me we could see a slight pullback in the stock.

On November 29th, I sent out an alert to buy the January 2014 35 Calls because there was a bullish engulfing pattern showing up on the charts. At the time, the stock was trading $38.20 and I set a target price at the gap up around the $40 level. Now that the stock has moved higher I think […]

This ETF, like a large number of stocks, is showing a clear bullish engulfing pattern near a role-reversal support line. The January calls are fairly inexpensive at $6.20. We will have to wait and see what happens with the price movement over the next couple of week before deciding whether to turn this into a calendar spread […]
