Is this the rebound of the metalsquietly the XME has broken out of a 2017 lull, and with that we go long.. a few ideas how to play this 1. Poor Mans Covered Call 2. Sell puts.. Both situations seem decent, but if you look at the possibility of being wrong, the PMCC offers the least amount of pain and suffering. Lets explore if selling puts, using Delta30... we will be getting $53 and using 989 in margin for Feb 02 34 Puts... The key here is that 34 is the prior resistance/ now support... if buying a PMCC Sell 1 contract of XME 2018 19-JAN 36.00 CALL @ $0.45 Buy 1 contract of XME 2018 15-JUN 34.00 CALL @ $3.00 Current Stock Price : $35.22 Break Even #1 : $34.58 Break Even #2 : $40.25 Total Requirement: $254.50 Put Guarantee Price: $0.00 Max Risk: $254.50 % Max Risk: 100.0% Max Profit: $90.00 % Return: 35.4% I will be using the PMCC model, as it will allow a greater return, and less pain if wrong... also the possibility to continue writing calls for 6 more months

Tesla Coil (Ha. Ha.)Some volume came in this morning for a nice green day, keeping this coil formation nice and tight. I'm in october 6 calls in anticipation of the semi truck announcement (which is said to be happening this month). Still early, may not break the coil to the upside yet, but I like my chances with the bull market still strong. Tomorrow I'll be watching for a weak open to risk $50 on sep 8 calls. If it pops out of the coil tomorrow, that'd be huge potential gains. This is becoming my favorite play. I missed the last two fridays when BIDU made 20x and 45x gains, not gonna miss tomorrow if it happens in FB, NVDA, BIDU, NFLX, or TSLA. Watching closely

long / short TOWNTOWN Looking at the cyclical life of TOWN , it looks like the stock may have some room to grow. I would say advise buying short-term call options at close to price strike price. The company does not perform as well on the balance sheet side. I would advise executing the right to buy stock when the option contract expires, only to minimize the risk of the option by turning it into a long position. If more information comes in suggesting that the stock will under perform, I would minimizing the long position, and buying short positions with some put options.
