Gottfried, RE “To get my feet wet in options I bought 2 VPJAJ [Jan '03 $50 calls] for $15”

Finally You did it!

For a number of years I’ve been secretly wishing for you to Buy and Profit from AMAT LEAPs.and join the Ranks of the Others who have profited tremendously from this AMAT Investment Vehicle. I like the way you handle yourself in this Thread, always Helpful, Moderate in Views —- actually I see you as the Unrecognized Moderator of this Thread..

Add some more LEAPs if you can and Remember: —- Don’t Sell Too Early (like what you did when you sold your AMAT shares during the last Bull Market at 70, only to see the stock YoYoed itself Up to 230 or 115 Post-split. After all, you already got not only the V shaped Bookings Tool to correctly guess the Bottom but also, if you reverse the V to make an A —- a Bookings Tool to correctly guess the Top.

Here’s another to correctly guess the Top. I’ve posted this numerous times in the Past but unluckily for me, I’m a Guy who sometimes do not follow his own advice and as a result paid a Hefty price each time. This can be summarized in these words: —-

“Whenever AMAT the Company reports All Time RECORD High in Earnings …but, as a result … AMAT the Stock does not hit an All Time RECORD High in Price —- then we are AT or NEAR the Top.”

PS —- Like Richard, I’d like to keep this saying of yours: —- Bookings will improve [month over month] some time. When they do, will AMAT investors sell?"
