I agree, but I've already got my positions. I'm sitting in long shares but my trading play has been the 2012 $250s and the 2012 $300s. I just doubled up on the 2012 300s when the sky was falling and AAPL was at $238 in late Aug. and all the TA traders were professing the clear downtrend and the inability to buy but as money flow into the stock remained positive. I use them a lot like my personal VIX now. Those last $300s I got were at $23.80 if I recall.

If this rally stalls, I'm probably going to roll out of the $250s and into more $300s, after some of the profit taking takes place. I've actually considered selling some $320 (give or take) Calls or the like as a hedge, but don't think I'm going to.

It's been a nice, steady climb without the run-away volume. We're above resistance now clearly with only a bit at the $275 level or so but I don't see anything posing a significant negative catalyst going into the next two quarters (save one that I won't even mention) that gives me any great level of pause.

My dream scenario is to see a push to $300 or so and see a 4:1 split.
