Rolled: NVDA June 17th 200 Short Call to the 170 Short Call... for a 9.21 credit. Comments: Late post that I was unable to get to yesterday ... . Doing a defensive roll ahead of earnings to reduce directionality in the event it continues on its path downward. I also took off the June 17th 225 short call, which I added in to reduce net delta and reduce cost basis further for an .82 debit, but didn't want to leave it on in the event price rips up, as it could complicate the setup and/or rolling. Total credits collected of 95.25 on a 105-wide inverted. Functionally, I'm long stock at 275, but with a current cost basis of the strike price (275) - total credits collected (95.25) or 179.75, so the short call is currently below my cost basis, which I'm okay with at least temporarily. Post earnings, I'll look to roll out the inverted as a unit, reducing cost basis further (although this trade is getting quite long in the tooth). I've indicated that it's long, not because that is my sentiment as to where the stock goes from here, but because delta/theta is 42.95/34.32.

AtntI like Atnt even though their annuals financials are shaky. I love the acquisition of DISCA which will take effect next year. Atnt is at or near a strong support and I like the variety of things Atnt is involved with. I feel that they are making noise behind the curtain and is also claimed to be popularly known as a defensive stock. Stochastic is at support on the Daily and the 1 hour time frame matching the green of the Mac D. Previous was broken so I set a fibonacci tool to retrace up to 61% of the previous in case I want to take profit on some shares. What do you think?

BTC loosing momentumBTC appears to be loosing momentum. I don't believe it is appropriate to say if a bear market is coming as there is simply not enough information to really make that determination. We could simple be at a brief pause before another uptrend. I personally believe that may only exasperate the impending correction and could easily drive a very steep bear market. While the market may easily go either way, now is a good time to reflect of trading strategies and possible consider a more defensive posture or rebalance multiple approaches. The chart shows the dramatic uptrend we have recently enjoyed, but, in reality, BTC is now significantly overvalued and its strength is wavering. We are due for a correction. I personally believe a corrected value in the $45,000ish area would be healthly for the market overall. My concern is that a correction may be just as extreme as the climb, which could see BTC drop to the $30,000ish area or lower. Hyperinflation will play a part in this correction and that really is unavoidable since most BTC is purchased with some form of fiat. How much of a role is debatedable, but renouwned investers like Dr. Michael Burry, believe there will be pain for those unprepared. As we move forward, now is the time to re-evaluate your risks, plan your budgets and make ready any steps for a worst case scenario. It is important to plan for a worst case scenario as common place, never risk more then you can afford to loose, and be willing to loose everything you risk. If you can't make that kind of a committment to your investing, then you will not be prepared, no matter which way the market goes in the stort term. Make no mistake, in the long term, a correction is coming.

KO Good long term company. Coca-Cola is a great company for anyone who want something defensive and long term. With a wide range of products, coca-cola is always expanding and innovating it's product line. This is a great long term hold an a great way to add some safety to your portfolio. Don"t except crazy gains but you can expect consistency from this massive company. The pandemic has demonstrated the need for commodity stocks in any portfolio to safeguard it in a market crash and coca-cola is a great option. Although, not necessarily bullish in my opinion, if it can get back into the ascending triangle, we can see maybe see $55-$60. Once again great long term pick. This idea is based of another trading view user: Profit_Center. I am just offering extra opinion on this stock. I agree with profit_Center that an entry can be in the near future, i will be watching for it to resume into the ascending triangle.

Future of Safe Haven currencies --> Flashback to 2008 analysis Hi all! This is my idea on the future of the so-called Safe Haven currencies. Remember, people in the need of defense against coming inflation turn into currencies or gold as they do not have much knowledge or energy for other assets. This is why good analysis is needed to see in what currency to invest. In the post-crisis period (4 years), both sides, the euro, and dollar initially behaved the same, reducing from their "crisis" peaks. In the longer term, the euro was most stable, consolidating in the upper/middle limits of the crisis. In turn, the dollar was marked by a stronger initial correction (it lasted about 260 days after the economy calmed down), then the rate accounted for fluctuations due to uncertainty. Frank had the best percentage return, moreover, it did not experience such corrections as the dollar in the same period. Look at the graph and compare the marked period, you will see that all three currencies behave more the same as in 2008. Key Facts: - the franc earned the most but the value of covid financial aid is unprecedented, - the dollar did not repeat the history in 100% and fell below the pre-covid rate (a chance for an increase), - printing the dollar does not help its rate, rather flooding the capital market with cash (blowing a bubble). I encourage you to do your own analysis based on your home currency, I used zloty as the second currency in the pair. Feel free to comment, give your thoughts. Would appreciate it if you like it!
