I am obsessed with our Options Charts because I’ve wanted something like them for decades. With the sell-off over the past month, I’ve made good profits, and I wanted to highlight a few “went on to triple digit gains after you sold it” charts to show a few of the big fish I’ve let get away. I want to remind Platinum folks that now you can see ALL my live positions and entry points directly within your own Options Chart page!
Courtesy of Slope’s marvelous Options Charts, here are four options positions I sold, only to see them move on to triple-digit gains. To be fair, there were a few bullets I dodged along the way, so it’s not all screw-ups, but it is illuminating to be able to look back like this.
I’ve got to say, I am just head over heels about our Options Charts. I haven’t seen anything like these ANYWHERE on the web, and they’re fantastic. Here are some favorite trades from the past in which the market kept pushing higher (AKA I sold too soon). The red horizontal marks the sell point (to be clear, I often got back into the same trade later, so it’s not all about self-flagellation).
This afternoon, Amazon (AMZN) will be the final exciting earnings event of the season. Afterward, it’s going to be mostly humdrum stuff until it fizzles into nothing (then, weirdly, NVDA has their moment in the spotlight on the 26th).
Amazon is a rather steady stock, being a $2.5 trillion behemoth whose defining characteristic is the ascending price channel, where it has been banging around for almost all human history.
