December 19, 2007

Being long the NDX and RUT. Gained a little bit more today in both. Tomorrow could be a big day though with ORCL having good earnings and NKE as well.

ORCL calls should be good tomorrow. I added it to the watchlist as an earnings play and that should play out well tomorrow. I own the Jan 22.5′s. In the afterhours ORCL is around 6.5% higher @ 22.12. This is a nice move for a crap stock like ORCL. I should say formerly crap. The big movement in ORCL tomorrow and what we saw in MSFT around October might be telling us something about tech — Get some of it.

JOYG – Popped today 7% on news.

AUO – Popped, but I need more for my options that were bought too early. Huge day if you bought AUO calls yesterday.

SYNA – I had a profit then watched it disappear fast. Maybe I get more pop in SYNA tomorrow. Its begging for more. Huge day if you bought SYNA calls yesterday. For those that bought early or late you got a tough position.

CRDC – Back in this. Its on the watchlist for a swing trade. Up 1.36% right now.

GNBT – Down a little bit 5.7%. Everything still points higher as of now so I’ll be staying put.

ICTL – Still holding. Things look ok for now. This stock is ridiculously volatile.

CDS – Up a few bucks from the buy today.

SEED – Down a little bit. It didn’t hold its highs, we’ll see what it does tomorrow. It may get tossed if does not perform.

The blunder trade award goes to me for the BIIB call option trade. They are down. It would have been so much better for me to pick any stock on the watchlist instead. Almost everything on that list is pretty much up and some up tremendously in a few days. Watching this one closely tomorrow.

    where did you find out about ICTL ? And are there any message boards you find ICTL info on? (for news etc). The news releases are few and far between.. i plan to always pick up shares if i see them below $2.40. this stock always bounces / drives back up to $2.75 – $3.00 and should easily be at $4.00 in march. The stock does feel VERY manipulated though, as if a small group of people are playing back and forth with it..

    what are your thoughts?
