I agree when buying stock, but with options I think if someone is going to play them then they should be watching them closely (i.e. checking it a few times a day). Never rely on technology or a broker.

My stop loss is already in place where I would still profit when it triggers. It's really just a matter of trying to "maximize" the profit right now. I bought some SLV in the mid 30s, and then added in the mid 40s. My average cost is something like $39.xx right now. Might get out by week's end and try not to be too greedy.

If I were you, and this is just my personal opinion, I think you'd be better off skimming your initial investment off and letting it ride with your profit.

I want to buy even more CSCO. This sucker is going to hit at least $23 by august and I want at least 2000 more shares in it. Any idea on calls perhaps?

CSCO has a lot going on right now. I'd wait until after May 11 or whenever earnings are before I evaluate buying more. I have a pretty big position, so I'll be happy if it goes higher, but I'm willing to add more if it goes lower.

What I'm hoping is that they'll have a solid quarter in terms of numbers, but Chambers will give positive guidance and more insight into the plan/restructure that will bring the company back to running lean and dominating the networking space. I really think Chambers could add $5-10b in value (5%-10% higher) just in his message. He's proven he can destroy billions in one conference call.

Could be since it is the last day of options for the weekly ones and also the last trading day of the month. Could see some end of the month dressing take place today. I most likely won't be doing any trading today. I will be selling some calls today. Market could trade sideways then finish in the red. We should not end down too much but with POMO in affect you never know these days.

I have been posting about AMD for a while now. Before closing bell on Thursday there was quite a spike in buying so let's see what Monday brings us

NVDA is a good one to keep an eye on this next coming 2 weeks. I reckon it will drop before earnings and then maybe spike on earnings report or even run up a few days prior to earnings like Apple did.

http://www.investors.com/StockResear...Corp-NVDA.aspx

NVDA and AMD are doing well now. Over the past week both have done well.

RIMM is pretty Fucked today due to bad numbers. I reckon it will drop further like Google did. Once we hit $45-46 it might be good to pick up some calls for the bounce.

I sold a couple hundred shares and was eager to invest it into something today but you convinced me to hold off.

anyone recommend anything to invest it in?

seems like SLV is pretty popular, assuming it doesnt go up more by monday.
