Stocks I am watching today
BA, been in a range the last 6 weeks, looks to break out. over the premarket highs of 157.50 there is room to 164 but needs volume to confirm
CRWD been long since high 30's, only 1/8 position left, but with very good earnings last night this has potential to 100 / 103 / ATH today - will be nail and bail only, as I expect profit taking from the traders that bought this into earnings.
VTIQ - about to become Nikola (NKLA) tomorrow, the TSLA of trucks - think traders will buy this up into the ticker change tomorrow. CEO has been on the fin channels pumping this up. was in the 31's yesterday, 33 premarket, potential to mid 30's today. 40's not out of range if volume steps in. Be cautious though, this has seen some large range recently, manage risk accordingly
SPY 308 calls look to open nicely green.
SPCE, SSRM, SRNE and GOLD are the dogs in my swing account at the moment. SPCE seems to come out with more share offerings by the week now, not good for us bagholders. The rest are kinda hedge plays should the market break this uptrend streak
Perhaps I need to start a signalling service and make real money.
BA - did it breakout or what, almost 15 points, so all my long term accounts really went green. Took 160 calls at open, and rolled with profits to 170C, have just one contract left over 300% and will swing overnight - suspect we may see a gap up open tomorrow. Had I held all the initial contracts I would have been done for the week. Will roll up tomorrow again, probably 180's 6/12 expiry (but needs volume to support) - needs a pullback if you want a new position, my roll ups are with profits.
CRWD - IF you were patient and bought it on the dip to 95 you made money on the return to 100. If you were an idiot like me, you misread the chart at open and got long, and had to endure some large red numbers most of the day. Lesson = patience, or wait for another candlestick confirmation. Still CRWD formed a nice PEG (power earnings gap), so will be on my watchlist for consolidation, then continuation higher. NOT a virus related stock, so will benefit as companies open up again.
VTIQ - winner IF you patient. Opened nicely, then fell 10% before recovering, going red to green (one of my favorite setups), I suspect it continues to grind higher as the company takeover plays out, and this becomes NKLA. Considering adding this to my long term buy and never sell account - quite possible they become the TSLA of the pickup truck market, really like their OEM style, and the e-truck market for companies like AMZN, FDX, UPS etc will be huge in years to come.
Even SPCE got a nice bounce today. It has been range bound between 14.50 and 21 the last almost 6 weeks. Can play in the range, but am really watching for when it goes over 18.50, and have a large buy order in just over 21. Long term (for me, so in the next 6 months, I think mid to high 20's is possible). But be warned, they are adding to the share pool with little notice, that dilutes the stock, and stops prices from a good constant uptrend.
GOL and SAVE very nice wallet padding from overnight positions, stopped out of GOL, and SAVE stops nicely in the green. Both on watchlist.
NVAX - massive loss today, was long from 49, had stops expire, did not catch it, and had some bad news today and went to 41. Hard to trigger your stop loss when it is no longer in place - my own fault swinging a trade with a daily stop loss rather than GTC or GTdate loss limit. A year ago I would have panic'd and sold at lows, instead I managed the trade, and instead of being down $5K plus I am "only" down half that. Stops now set, and will give this a few days to recover, but will cut and take my bad medicine below 43.
SPY 308 calls were up over 250% at open, and rolled those up a couple times after taking profits. Holding 213 calls for Friday, they are green, and were up nicely until the sell off in the last 10 mins. Gap up tomorrow I will take profits, and bail. SPY blew through both my pivots today, even with tech weak, QQQ rejected from all time highs today.
Do we gap up open, then fade tomorrow? Do we see a rotation into tech that may have started this afternoon, do airlines and BA continue to rip?
Last night was the first time since late Jan that I actually had stock overnight on margin. Just a small position, back to mostly cash overnight tonight, single BA call and some SPY calls. Because I am feeling a little more confident here - my spidey sense is tingling, and it probably means we are not far from a major sell off. But it takes a very brave or very foolish man to go short the market against this freight train of momentum. I can honestly see the market continuing higher until we get close to Q2 earnings, mid to late July, unless we get some really bad news in the interim. BUT, there certainly has been an increase in SPY and QQQ Put sweeps the last few days, so some folks are definitely bearish - whether actually bearish, or just hedging positions? That is the real question.
full out, fuck it all unless I've got something with very small gains. PCG (PG&E) for example, is still under $12 right now, so that would be about my only position remaining unless it gets to the mid teens 
wow
still have ~$600 invested.
Super conservative, the catch a knife and sell a balloon seems to have worked out. I'm not rich, but i had fun and didn't lose my ass
