AMAT calls (see post 5218)

Believe you were considering AMAT stock or calls. Hence my post 5218, where I suggested buying the Oct 27 1/2's near $5, on continuation of the double-top breakout at 33. I didn't hear that you bought, but hope you did. Just got back from a one-week vacation, and saw AMAT reached 37 3/8 last Friday. Thus, could have exited these calls at about 10, for about 100% in one week.

Whether you did or didn't, it was a good example of trading a p&f DT, supported by some additional fundamental info. Here, the DT actually helped to time the buy.

Good luck on future trades like this one. (I missed the buy on this one, what else do you like? I'll be happy to take a look at them.)
