Looking at Thursday
This is interesting. The chart says most likely will go up, and todays candle is an 'up' candle. So why did I buy a put? Lets take a look...
You can see that the majority of the signals on this chart says Thurs will be an up day. But I think its a fakeout. Here are my reasons:
1. The overall trend is still down
2. The global economy sucks
3. I think the report from china was a 'relief' rally
4. The ADX black line isnt showing reversal territory..its...
Buying a SPY put
I dont usually triple up, but I am throwing in on a SPY put. I was looking at the calls, and soemthing was just bugging me, I couldnt put my finger on it. I just dont think that we are going to climb up and its up up and away. We had a relief rally today brought on by a Chinese Consumer report. Im going to warm you guys that going 3 times bet in one direction usually isnt good. Its bad for the bankroll, but I am going to go ahead and do it. I just...
New Pick
RENT- This is a proposed merger that the smart money says is never going to happen. As soon as this was announced, the stock jumped.
COMSCORE, Inc. (NASDAQ:SCOR) said that it will buy Rentrak Corporation (NASDAQ:RENT) in an all-stock deal, creating a firm that provides analytics and data services for the web, mobile, media, television and marketing industries which may rise to rival dominant player Nielsen Holdings PLC (NYSE:NLSN)....

So thats what happened...
When I saw that the markets were up 200 points I knew that there must be a news item that made the technicals be ignored, because they were showing imminent drop:
However the mood Wednesday proved more upbeat as investors appeared to welcome a report from the payroll processor ADP that showed better-than-expected job gains in the private sector in September, while they shrugged off a dismal reading on Chicago-area manufacturing, which dropped into contraction territory.
Helping overall sentiment are gains in overseas equity markets. In...

Market heading toward cliff...QQQ put issued
It looks to me like its about to go over the edge of a cliff....the warmth has dissapeared from this mornings consumer reports and now the pros have taken over in the afternoon....I dont think tomorrow or the day after is going to be a very good day for the market.

One eyebrow raised- Consumer Report
I did not expect an up day today, and the charts did not tell me to expect one, either. The consumer confidence report came out today, so the news trumped the techs. The report said that things were looking skippy:
U.S. consumer confidence rose slightly in September and was just a shade below a postrecession high. The consumer confidence index increased to 103.0 from a revised 101.1 in August, the Conference Board said Tuesday. That's the highest leve since January, when consumer confidence touched an eight-year high. Economists polled by MarketWatch...

CHART SAYS DROP IN NEXT THREE DAYS
Watching the charts, I am very happy that I have some SPY put novembers ready to go. In looking at the chart below, I am now able to glean some pretty clear timing:
It looks like the market is going to drop and drop to the extent where we have a double bottom form.
Now for a lot of you, this might very well be a 'holy shit' moment. Maybe a few of your will get a margin call. Maybe yet more of you will sweat your 401K.
Don't panic sell. HOLD. As...

Ok, this is what Im doing...
Im about to purchase some QQQ puts and some SPY puts. You might be thinking watching my activity, "why not just hold the puts that you exited today?"
The reason is so I lock in my gains. I just made twenty something percent on one, and 40 something percent on another. Thats cash on the table that might not be there tomorrow.
So what Im doing is pausing, taking the money, then re-positioning myself.
Ill be back with some more orders.

We are set for the week
We are set for the beginning of the week with two puts. The Sept. jobs report will not happen until this coming Friday and who knows what will happen Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. But according to the charts, things don't look too good and I am protected from down days with my puts. One short term, one long term for both possibilities: a slight drop or a more deeper drop.
You might say, why not any calls? What if the market goes up?
It just doesn't seem like there are too many up days in our quiver. The market already moved due to Yellen's upbeat...

Monday-Tues-Wed
I see a bit of chopping next week. This chopping back and forth, however, is just putting off the inevitable: A second drop that will be the second half of the double dip that is going to rock us within 2.5 weeks.
Oh, the worst of it isnt over. Lets take a look at things: the structure of the entire thing is still rotten. The global economy is grinding down to a slow beat, and China is undergoing currency manipulation, and we are still printing off...
I'm feeling a drop next three days
Im feeling a cold draft. Don't know what it is, maybe the enthus. is running out of Yellens bullish comments. Everything is still what it was. I feel like a put. A QQQ put.
My in:
I wanted to get in before close for next week. I think we will be angling down a bit. So now we have a put from Nov hanging out there for a big drop and this one, for a smaller drop.
Now that I think about it, thats a pretty good system Im easing into. I hang the outer...
My purchase order yesterday for BMW...you're welcome.
I knew that was a knee jerk reaction to the VW problem and that BMW had a panic sell off yesterday. In proper contrarian style I looked at the numbers, decided that the market was freaking out with panic and fear, and ran in the burning building. Today I had a nice gain in the stock overnight.
But its not really about the short term with this one. You are going to hold this for quite a while. Put in the money in and forget about it.
Yesterday:

Exit QQQ call from yesterday for Profit
Today we make some money on that QQQ call from yesterday...our in was 1.77 and today we are out at 2 dollars. Ill take 11% any day of the week.

Time to purchase BMW outright
Q: Hey Mark, should I get into BMW now for the long haul? I mean, just like Buffet, purchase a block and sit on it for 20-30 years?
A: Yes
Lets take a look at this chart:
You notice that
this is a solid company that constantly increases its market share. Look at the dip in 2001 and then the dip in 2008 when the markets crashed. Then look what happened. The stock keeps climbing like an early Microsoft or Home Depot.
Today is an excellent day...
We dump that QQQ 108.50 call: worthless.
Well pay attention to this because its probably never going to happen again: I made a big mistake buying way outside the money figuring the markets would roar when there was no fed raise. Whoops.
1. Yes, the above. In actuality, the market saw no rate raise as a weakness, that the market was sick so the market dropped.
2. From now on in order to take full advantage of volitility I will always purchase at or near the money so I dont have my cheese...
