RBLX dipped back into the channelI am into RBLX because my kid keeps asking me to buy him coins in the game. I figured I could help him earn some coins (lol). When institutional investors started buzzing about it more after it's first earnings, I had a hunch it would soar. Well it happened and now it's cool down time as indicated by lower volume. I think that price will retrace to about $96 before dropping more. I am a novice charting queen aiming to be right. This 4hr view shows the highlights, but drilling down to the 1hr chart may help you see a more familiar to determine your entry and exit strategies. Once more price action takes place, I hope to see when RBLX will rise again (summer 2021).

YTEN OPTIONS 3.7M FLOAT / INSIDERS BUYING/ 1/2 OF ENTERPRISE VALAll, I highly suggest buying call options here. Just get ones further out and pay the premium. If you are unsure just buy a equal amount of PUTS with it then drop the opposing side once dropping. This has huge potential here. If you took enterprise valuation at face value this stock has 60% upside. Conservatively speaking lets even say 30%. With call options clearly that 30% is about 200% if hit correctly. See below for more details. Personally going with a combination of 1&3 due to market being horrible etc. Enterprise Valuation: 0.397 (1.0 being at value, over 1.0 overvalued, under 1.0 being undervalued) (so WAY undervalued right now) Float: 3.77M Short Float: 0.5% (literally none) Short Growth: -58% (shorts leaving the stock probably noticing the chart etc and undervalued) CASH TO DEBT RATIO: 6.2 (THATS really good) Option Method 1 1) Double Call to Put Ratio 2) Release Puts or Calls once direction is established Option Method 2 1) Long call option heavy buy 2) Set stop loss or scale in if it drops (next drop isnt too far) Option Method 3 1) Long call option light buy 2) Scale in once trend breaks

Avoid Unprofitable Options ! - GME ExampleHello everyone, this is an example of how to detect unprofitable options BEFORE you take the trade , to better your chances. We are all doing this (trading) for our own personal reasons, so we need to make sure we succeed. I see many people want to SHORT GME, some other people suggest they buy PUT options on GME ---> This is a MISTAKE! Because those options are considered not probable to generate money. In this example of GME (notice this is LOG CHART), you can buy a relative short-term put option for 41 days, but as you can see, to make 2 points of your risk you need the price to crash to a price of $50 within 41 days. Why is it not profitable? It costs 34.3, so you need the price to move down 34.3 dollars to be break-even, then another 34.3 dollars to 1 point of profit, and another 34.3 dollars to make 2 points of profits. All this within 41 days... price could stay flat on a range of 160-255 and only then crash... Assume that you fantasize about a 3 point profit on this PUT option, do you see the purple line? this is where the price needs to get so this fantasy will be true. HIGHLY UNLIKELY to happen. So just avoid it! Now, we will check the long-term option, maybe it gives us better results... If we look at the long-term put option for 97 days, to make 2 points of profit you need the price to crash to 6!!! So just avoid it! It is fair to say though, that the longer-term put option, if someone thinks that a crash will happen testing the price of 45 within the next 3 months, he has a play of 1 to 1, that could be profitable. But you can clearly see, that once you get that 1 to 1, you better snatch it and grab it because you are probably not going to get more $$$ from this trade. Currently, the options on GME are not worth it (unprofitable), because the implied volatility is very high (150%+), they are very expensive.

ROKU still bearish to 240...Yes... I know... ROKU has been running this week but guess what, it is still in the massive downward channel! ROKU bounced heavy off the long term trendline support and is now at a very interesting spot...which happens to be the downward trendline resistance! This will be a great short opportunity into tomorrow if ROKU rejects resistance at ~338 (.5 fib) My downside targets will be: PT1: 304.34 PT2: 282.94 PT3: 241.03 (on break of long term trendline support) In the unlikely event that I am wrong and ROKU continues its bullish run and breaks resistance... Upside targets will be: PT1: 352.58 PT2: 373.80 PT3: 400 (Psychological resistance) Happy trading!

GNW Rejection!Hello Community! Before we begin please support my idea with a thumbs up and comment. It'll be greatly appreciated and will motivate me to post a little more! This is a quick analysis. GNW keeps getting rejected on the daily timeframe, the RSI is overbought & THE MACD is heading towards the red. Until it breaks that diagonal resistance line drawn it will remain bearish (Short term). This is not financial advice. Safe Trading Calculate Your Risk/Reward & Collect! Simplicity Wins

Selling PutsSomeone asked me about selling puts and I see a lot of people talking about selling TSLA puts The nearest low is at a price of $591, the trend is long and we had almost 40% drop. The implied volatility is relatively high but could be higher (if the IV will go higher it is bad for selling options) The option has 30 days left until expiration. If the price of TSLA will be above $590 the option will be worthless and all the premium will be received $1610 We need a sharp move up to the green line if we want to buy back the option before expiration and get all the premium. In the previous epic wave of TSLA people made lots of money by selling naked puts. Selling naked is for more advanced traders.

The Put/Call Ratio in a NutshellWhat is the put/call ratio? The put/call ratio (PCE) is a popular barometer of market sentiment, which shows the ratio of trading volumes of Put vs Call options. However, with distortions in the current price of nearly every instrument off the back of "free money," and persistent market intervention by policy makers, we're not quite seeing the price discovery we're used to, which has made it more difficult to make sense of the Put-Call, and other technical indicators as well. What is a derivative? To understand the value of the put/call ratio, we must first understand the derivatives market. A derivative is a (leveraged) instrument, which gives the holder a right to either buy (call) or sell (put) a specific amount of a stock (or other instrument), at a specified price, and timeframe. If your'e holding a put, you're likely expecting the price of the stock to fall, while holders of calls are expecting the price to rise. Puts are usually used as a solid hedging tool, while calls are more often related to speculative behaviour. How to use the put-call ratio? When the put/call rises above 1, it indicates that market sentient is shifting more bearish. At the moment, we're looking at a put/call of around 0.46, which indicates that market sentiment is very bullish, and actually, it's been bullish for quite some time as you can see in the chart. When we see a massive shift in the put/call back above 1, naturally it would be showing that investors and traders are becoming more defensive.

JNJ- POSSIBLE PUT OPTIONS - MAY 21ST 0.84 CONTRACTS $150All, In semi recent news it's very possible JNJ loses the COVID contracts or at least long enough to take a solid tumble. IF it breaks into the red zone it should trigger a loss of a high and break trend downwards again to $145-$132 level. As always wait for conformation of breaking under first level and watch options volume/contracts for changes in price and news. JNJ in a prime spot to be shorted. Also you can always cover with calls.
