$USRM From .0045 Onwards She is Ready for the 4th Leg UpBy far one of my top 3 favorite stocks so far this year, our Bio baby has proven her stamina. She has hit the .08 support at triple bottom and is ready for a 4th massive move upwards. With Institutional investors now throwing upwards of $5 million in financing at her for a stake in what is to be a potential FDA approval after a more than likely RMAT approval, its no wonder she is up almost 20,000% as of today from where we first found her. This is a perfect time to get back in if you already sold and are looking for another entry point for the next leg up.

SNAP - Potential of two centerlines?I had right now a fellow trader asking me about which centerlines could be met, if I have two forks on the chart. The answer is: either of both can be met, even if the other one is a very big one like the one in the current Gold chart:
Why is this possible?
It is a question of the perspective, the context:
If you look for "quickies", then you probably prefer to trade the smaller ones, because the TIME it takes to reach the centerline of the smaller fork is shorter, even if both have the 80% chance to be hit.
So, think first what you can stand, what your style of trading really is and with what product you trade it. And by "product" I mean the underlying or options or futures etc.
I like to trade options very much.
But I seldom only buy options, I look for theta - time decay and collect premium.
If my assumption of a market is heavily directional, then I use options too, playing my chances with a RiskReversal (Selling options for a premium which finances me the bought options, that are usually two or more times the bought ones.)
Go slow, learn (by asking like this trader) and then you will earn...it's a process and it takes time.

SNAP - Down to the centerline and the the bounce?Here is a new view about SNAP.
We made money on the last two trades (up and down) and now we must wait and be patient.
I see the centerline as potential place where this stock can bounce back - how far? Dunno...
But since the confidence is getting crunched more and more, it's also possible that we see a zoom through the centerline, with a following test/retest back to it and then a very sharp continuation to the downside...but this just the possible scenario that plays in my brain.
First we just observe and and see, if SNAP can find supporters at the centerline.

Good FB buying opportunityWith NYSE:SNAP entering the market we see Facebook accelerating the addition of new features to become more competitive. Facebook has massive resources at its disposal to fight off any new market upstart and the threat of SNAP taking away market share will be excellent motivation for the young yet experienced Zuckerberg, to hold on to his dominant market position. The recent dip pushed NASDAQ:FB into oversold territory which presents us with a good buying opportunity.

$GEVO Earnings and Conference Call on Company Updates 29thTechnicals on $GEVO are far beyond bullish. We have the 50DMA curving under the current 30 min candle setup and the PARSAR has flipped bullish. An ascending cup is forming and it is poised for a breakout back to prior levels. In addition we also have the gap down from $2.50 to fill. LT after the ER is posted and wind of the technicals catches on we could see previous highs of $5.00 or more once again. Very Long
THE WEEK AHEAD: SNAP, FEZ, XLV, AND XRTWith four weeks or so until the next batch of earnings, I'm briefly turning my attention to exchange-traded funds to see if there's anything I can play to bridge the gap between earnings seasons.
As with the previous several weeks, there isn't much; only three are near or above the 70th percentile for implied volatility over the past six months: FEZ, with an implied volatility rank of 86, and a background implied volatility of 20; XLV (68/17) (no surprise there; some friskiness associated with the failed Repeal and Replace measure); and XRT (67/22). I will look to work XLV and XRT with iron flies, possibly, but I may go directional on FEZ, since it's meant to replicate the performance of the Euro Stoxx 50.
The other possibility is SNAP. It hasn't been on the block long enough for it to have a "6 month" metric of anything, but its background implied volatility is at 59%, and that's somewhat high for this market. Because of its potential for rippage, I think the best play in that is directional or where there is no directional risk on one side or the other (put diagonal, Jade Lizard, Big Liz).
I'll putz with possible SNAP setups here and post separately if something looks particularly attractive ... .
TRADE IDEA: A SNAP POOR MAN'SOne thing I'm certain about, and that's that I don't want to buy SNAP stock here with its having whipsawed between 29+ and 19 in the short time since its IPO. But I might want to acquire it later once it settles down -- as with all things, preferably at a lower price than 22.74. A Poor Man's Covered Call gives me the flexibility to play SNAP, give me the option to buy it later by exercising the 15 long call before expiry, as well as to reduce cost basis in that long call while I'm waiting for it to figure out where it's going.
Consequently, here I'm thinking a Poor Man's Covered Call where the long-dated, back month, long option takes the place of long stock and (as with any covered call), the short call looks to reduce cost basis in the long option, while protecting the position from some downside. As with a covered call, you look to roll out the short option for duration, ideally keeping it clear of your cost basis, and you exit the trade for a credit that exceeds what you paid to put it on minus any credits collected due to rolling.
Metrics:
Max Loss/Buying Power Effect: $725/contract
Theta: 2.23/contract
Delta: 50.38
As with any diagonal (that's what this is, basically), we don't know much else about the setup in terms of potential profit, but I generally look to exit these north of 10% of what I paid to put them on.
Naturally, this is likely to continue to be somewhat of a roller coaster, so you need to be prepared for somewhat of a bumpy ride, particularly as price moves toward the long call side of the setup (since its delta long).
Notes: There is some piddling that needs to be done with these to ensure that the credit received for the short call exceeds any extrinsic value in the long option. The extrinsic value in the long option can be calculated by subtracting the difference between current price and the long call strike from what you will be paying for the long option 8.20 - (22.74 - 15) = .46. The April 21st 24 short call brings in .95 in credit at the mid, which is greater than the extrinsic value in the long.
Currently, the long option is bid 7.80/ask 8.60, so some further adjustment may be required during regular market hours to recalculate whether the extrinsic value received for the short exceeds that in the long and/or to get a fill.
SNAP - Snapchat reached the centerline.Here we have a nice example of a advanced fork setup.
If you know how the swings really, and I mean REALLY work, you know how to place the A/B/C points and therefore, what you can expect.
I don't trade this potential downside now, but I will observe until something screams in my face.
