Options aren't my province, but fwiw
tbr + tbh volume 10.4 million & counting. Lot of people will take profits before the weekend. What news will harm vs what will benefit. Best of luck.

RE August Options:

If I weren't in meetings all day, I probably would have sold them (125 Cs) when the stock hit 126-127 because of the large move up. I really wasn't expecting such a move in one day. My original plan was to sell them pre-auction at 130-135.

Since I couldn't, I'll probably see how things go Friday AM, and look for an opportunity there. Only other options I have is a small position of Oct 110s, and we'll see how far we can stretch those babies.

Steve,

Only started to play August today..In and out of 120's :-)
At the moment I have a free bull spread: 125 - 130 which I'll
keep for now.

I don't know TA..so I just go by FA?..I agree with you that
the rally may continue tomorrow..

later

Victor

Well, my plan is to *buy* some August $125 at open, and sell soon afterwards. (holding octobers for at least a few more weeks).

I would sell tommorrow, due to time expiry over the weekend, but i guess it depends on what your view is, sure we all hope it keeps going up, but close to expiry options always seem to piss on me, so i will be in and out quickly.
