Herm, thanks for response. I'm still reading through first few hundred posts and like what I see. I have a different opinion about TJX. All points your had made are valid, but TJX broke out of 5-6 weeks base and made a new high. They have 2:1 split coming, retailing group is strong, people spending more, etc. Chart of TJX iqc.com RSI = 52, which is OK, momentum is positive, stochastics are on overbought side. Stochastics could stay overbought for a long time same as RSI. Bad sign is when they start to trend down. From Big charts you can see that MACD turned positive also. 2 insiders sold 281K shares in last 6 month, but almost any company had insider sells reported. About possible news coming: Retail sales report, etc are out every month. Disclaimer: I do not own any share of TJX. I planned to use your ROST study as blueprint for CC paper trading. TJX and ROST a competitors and have a quite similar fundamentals. I have another few questions: 1. How far in time is reasonable to sell calls? 1-2 month out? 2. Do you sell calls at the money and 1 strake higher, or 2-3 strikes higher? 3. Do you see a difference in CC for $10, $20-30, $40-50, etc stocks? 4. Is it make sense to stay away in CC from highly liquid and moving stocks such as Dell, INTC , etc? 5. Do you use same method for selling naked puts, if you want to buy a stock? Thank you, Slava Chechik |
