Apple has been in the same channel deviation channels more less since May. Since then obviously a few bounces but settles back into the same deviation channel. A bit risky however I purchased 117 calls for next week on Friday on the dip. I wanted to see it over 116.38 which is the .618 from the most recent high low swing but with earnings coming up figured I would make a move a little early and keep that 10% stop set. At close Friday I am 1.13% green and did avg down as I didnt get in right as the bottom, it was slightly early. As stated I made the jump a little early with a little anticipation or a earnings run up and held over the weekend but a candle over 116.50 area to confirm a climb over the .618 and I would personally buy. This is a weekly expiration as I do not intend on holding through earnings and will likely sell soon as I reach my profit goal or Wednesday at the latest.
Just to be clear.......the numbers listed below are from Barchart.com off of the traders cheat sheet. They will vary slightly as I pull my fib retracement from the most recent high low swing. Also, remember QQQ is a great tech play for earnings.
