How much are you trading to get out after a 1% gain??? 100k?Out GPRO $45.35. +.55 Moving into congestion. I am happy.
1000 shares this time. Lotta my action is on margin usually.How much are you trading to get out after a 1% gain??? 100k?
$500 net is a good nick for me. A scalp here and there - several trades a day - close out all positions end of day and I am happy.
I don't win em all.
I have been pleased that this summer has still provided a lot of action to be gamed. It often is so slow that I really get stressed out looking for trades that aren't there.
This trade was pretty conservative - I wish I had the courage to let it run. I just locked up a win and moved on.
GPRO triple top here at $45.75. This animal is really interesting. Chaps mentioned the growing short interest. That is setting up a monster squeeze to hurt those folks and shake them out.
Gonna be a good battle.

GPRO closed $46.31 It touched a high of $45.80 approx several times today. In the 9th inning today it blew past that number.
Chaps mentioned the growing short interest (doubled). Folks betting GPRO misses or has a bad forecast Thurs.
Q: What's the best way to fuck with them and make them lose money - NOW?
A: Run the price up at the end of the day. What a way to ruin a guys night? Move the price against his bet. Do it in a sudden and big way. Make it hurt. The poor fuckers give up and buy to cover which is more buying and the price moves more.
A short squeeze. Anyway, that's what I think I saw.
I scalped a little off of the $45.80 break.

Invest in TYDE. TYDE is a Mexico ADR that is breaking out right now. Could hit 8 year highs. Earnings call on Sunday.
GPRO squeezing pretty good, hit 48.
edit: WWE reacted nicely to it's ER, faded a bit tho. Still looking good overall, imo.
Oh the pain.
The conspiracy theorist in me says GPRO misses and this is just a mammoth squeeze-eroo.
I had a meeting this morning and was dying as I watched it break 36.00 on my phone. Look at that volume at that point. You can just feel the panic.
Great entertainment value.
Went to meeting about FaceBook marketing. Rapportive & Connect 6 just the beginning of creepy FaceBook "surveillance" & targeting. But wicked cool shite.
I still have never done FaceBook and am in fucking crisis mode cause I feel like I have so much equity vs others in still being dark.
I think I got a glimpse into how the cool kids can so easily Dox you. I kinda knew all along but I never knew the tools were so powerful.
But it is hard to play the FB game unless your in.
Edit:
Funny Twitter app:
LIVESON
Tag line: When your heart stops beating, you'll keep tweeting. Welcome to your social after life.
It's an app that generates a digital "twin" that will learn your preferences in life so that it can eventually impersonate you in death.

GPRO misses. Getting hit after hours.Oh the pain.

No, the results weren't leaked. Right.
It's like playing in a fixed card game. Except you know going in there is collusion.
They guided well above expectations. Revenues rose, costs fell. I just don't get wall street reactions sometimes.
GPRO
The hardware and software solutions company reported a second quarter net loss of -$19.8 million, or -24 cents per share, greater than the -$5.1 million loss, or -6 cents per share, a year ago.
Lost more money on increased sales.
However, I think we both don't really give a shit about fundamentals. We know that there is very often a disconnect between any given days price and fundamentals. They move the price around for their own purpose.
Diane Sawyer told me tonight the Dow fell 300 points because traders woke up fearing a Fed rate hike. Thanks ABC.
Russia, Ukraine, strong dollar, pending American League World Series win - nonsense. All this shit didn't just happen today. It's just shifting emotions, and fib retracement.
Some days, bad news is ignored and other days bad news is just bad news.
Don't think. Just trade what you see.
You want action DJ?
God I hate social media stocks. And I love bubbles.
Look at TWTR. Do we have gaps to fill? We are due for a retracement up so I am not completely sure about this.
6 month daily
5 minute
August $45.00 Put bid $2.41. Ask 2.54
We gonna drill the daily???? Wish it would bounce first
Fuck, I am in at 2.56
Fetal position
While it did drill this is a bad trade. The chart already had 3 legs down. Due for retracement. I just couldn't help trading the breach of daily low.
I need someone to report seeing Stukas over Disney on Twitter.
you see go pro today?
Oh yeah. I shorted when it broke 42 and covered @ 40.80 when it bounced off daily low.
I missed the big dump off the days high. I just couldn't find a clear set up.
I thought TWTR was just more interesting to post cause it has a huge gap. (between $38-44) Stocks love to fill gaps.
The prop trader Chaps would appreciate the gap.
Nice run in WWE today. Not sure what to make of that afterhours trade, prolly nothing.
Without much of a squeeze off that gap up, I am leaning towards TWTR fading and filling.
Some noob fucked up his order.
I am still holding those puts at 2.56 which is rare for me.
I coulda grabbed 2.80 but passed. Bid 2.53 Ask 2.58 here
Hope your right
Some noob fucked up his order.
When I was prop trading, for some dumb reason we couldn't really trade a/h and would be forced to punch out at awful prices (could only go thru NSDQ, iirc). I had to erase a nice gain once cuz I got greedy leading into the bell, and hadn't got flat in time.
