Teddi KnightKeymaster
With weakness I see no need to jump though. I am posting an article this evening that shows Microsoft might break lower here. I plan to keep some capital dry so to speak so I can sell more just below $40 if that becomes possible next week or even later this week.
Teddi KnightKeymasterI believe below 43 it is great value
Teddi KnightKeymasterI had 5 STO Mar 43 for 0.84 on 1/15 when the stock showed weakness
Jan 27 2015 at 11:28 pm in reply to: Right time to roll Procter and Gamble Stock (PG Stock) / Buy stocks #15620Teddi KnightKeymasterSold the PG 20Feb15 86 put for 83 cents, as well as the 15Jan16 LEAP 80 put for 3 bucks.
Cheers,
KevinTeddi KnightKeymasterHi Amy
I have the 30Jan15 CAT 82.50. Guess I’ll wait til the end of the week and see if it bounces, if not then roll. Sold the 20Feb15 75 today also.
Cheers,
KevinTeddi KnightKeymasterThank you too, Teddi! :)
Teddi KnightKeymasterSeconded, Teddi! Great to see all the alternative trades for the same stock. Looks like I may have been a bit conservative with the $40 and going out to March, may sell the $41 for Feb if we have weakness tomorrow.
Teddi KnightKeymasterI was holding on to Feb $34 puts – think it’s going to be tested for a bit.
Managed to get decent premiums ($0.40) for Mar $31 puts too.
Best,
DarylTeddi KnightKeymasterSold the Feb 20 40.5 @.40
Teddi KnightKeymasterARGH….Twitter, Inc. is expected* to report earnings on 02/05/2015 after market close. I thought that premium was a little high. As the song says, “Should I stay or should I go”….will probably close early if I can make a decent profit. All I need is $400 for another 1% profit. If it pops, I can sell calls since I don’t have any yet for that week I guess…
Teddi KnightKeymasterYea, in hindsight I should have listed it under speculative; it’s just part of my normal portfolio these days!
Teddi KnightKeymasterSo far, it’s been terrific. I am staying away before earnings, as I usually do:)
Teddi KnightKeymasterThis is one stock I know nothing about. Obviously though you follow it. Hopefully others do as well. Premiums sure looked decent. But for ultra conservative traders I would like to be lower, probably down $55 for the Feb 20 put strike. Volumes look more like Canadian options, thin and wide spreads. For example the $54.50 is 24 bid and 41 ask. These kinds of stocks are great at times. You could place an offer at .37 cents and just leave it there and perhaps pick up the $54.50 for 0.67% return which is still an easy 8% for the year. Beats any dividend I know of and definitely better than a bank deposit. Just thinking out load and not a recommendation of any kind, but does make you think.
Jan 27 2015 at 3:38 pm in reply to: Right time to roll Procter and Gamble Stock (PG Stock) / Buy stocks #15601Teddi KnightKeymasterDefinitely pick up stock on MSFT this morning in my opinion. PG puts are sweet spot right now. I didn’t have a chance to check DuPont but what a great idea. I missed that one. I see no problem with AT&T Stock and sold more puts which I outlined in my afternoon investing strategy notes. I like it anywhere below $32.50. Remember my color coding chart for AT&T Stock. Below $32 it is very good value and below $30 a steal. So why not set up a small Put Selling ladder in the present turmoil.
Teddi KnightKeymasterNice trade Amy. I like the stock even though it is a speculative stock. I still think it is a great vehicle for income.
Teddi KnightKeymasterMy settings are exactly what is on the website. That is what I think is strange. I have no problem with my settings from interactive brokers. Call them would be my suggestion.
Mind you, I am in Canada. Maybe the platform is different.Teddi KnightKeymasterWell, the volumes are poor but I don’t see why they could not be traded. The problem with Ultra ETFS is the huge losses when the option trade fails. When owning the shares you can hold them indefinitely and they offer more flexibility. Even averaging down is a good idea at times with the Ultra ETFs shares but options have a finite lifespan.
Teddi KnightKeymasterIt is a great tradse. I love Microsoft at these prices. How could you argue against the $40 put strike. That is exactly what I sold as well and I rolled my $44 puts from yesterday forward to earn even more premium. The art of rolling forward can really boost your return. Congrats to all those brave souls who joined me in Microsoft Stock. The new members forum will allow us to discuss stock trades more openly and with prices and suggestions. I love this!
Teddi KnightKeymasterI sold the Feb. 6 42 strike @ .60
Hoping this isn’t a several day event drop.
Amy
Teddi KnightKeymasterSold the 20Feb15 41 for 62 cents.

KevinJan 27 2015 at 11:08 am in reply to: Right time to roll Procter and Gamble Stock (PG Stock) / Buy stocks #15581Teddi KnightKeymasterI STO PG Mar 6 83 for 0.50, an hour ago.
Also, DD Feb 20 68.5 for 0.55Teddi KnightKeymasterCould you post the existing IB Canada settings you have so I could cross check that? Thanks
Teddi KnightKeymasterMy UDOW is gone. Too bad. At one point here though it will be a buy again.
Teddi KnightKeymasterYou would need then a different technical indicators for the strategy. That would take me some time to figure out and backtest.
Teddi KnightKeymasterThis was in reply to my post earlier last year to Lex’s post on IB. Amibroker is not part of my IB & I am unable to edit the settings for Fast Stochastic (Period of fast avg.) https://www.fullyinformed.com/members/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/amibroker-chart-pennies-strategy.gif
