Tonight after market close, Apple (AAPL) is going to announce earnings. Probably the most awaited announcement (except Google) that will set the tone for the tech companies. Once I close my FUL positions, I shall try to capture “my” thoughts and hopefully how to play. As a privilege to registered users, It will go to registered users first though. Stay tuned ! (Posted already, if you are registered, you will be able to view it).
Till then, profitable trading

Comparison with S&P500 or Dow is not shown as it's unfair to expect from such large institution to deliver high returns. I would rather compare with my own target.

[...] Well, despite the great show, apple didn’t turn out a great show in the stock performance. Since I played non-direction on the earnings, I covered my short 95 call leg for $0.20. This resulted in $95 profit on $1365 investment i.e. 7% in one night. Though apple continue to fall as of this writing, I didn’t want to give my profits back to the market, so clsoed it for 7% profit. This closes my earlier posting about apple which were posted here and here [...]

It’s a very interesting traded and strategy. If AAPL had move according to your prediction, wouldn’t your short of 3 X 95 Call be at a loss? You will have to buy back your short immediately when the stock move upward?
Best regards,
