So was this the "uncle" moment? Full risk on?

I had to do real work today - trying to catch up.

Big Earnings BLOW OUT at Alphabet.
I guess we will see if they can somehow tear it apart Revenue didnt come in as much as the earnings suggest though still higher than estimates, maybe that will do it in.

Sad....nowhere to go....
I took PLTR off the list because I didn't even like the $90 trading
... Ford as well as I no longer trust it
.. BLND is a nostalgic trade...when I was sifting for burger money..
Tsla has been the cash cow this year...

 

[scoot]

Go TSLA go !

Yes and options also , I might dump stock soon and see how the options pan out for a few more months

I'm usually in and out in one day and sometimes you sell too early but Tesla is a gift that keeps giving. Good luck.

TSLA is cranking today. $271.00

Got no direct money in TSLA

I think I have been fairly avoiding car companies since 1980. Maybe some spot short term and some speculative GM bonds years ago

Anyway. Winning.

I would love to load up on SQQQ here and sell at 3:59, but I am expecting some BS "announcement" to set the narrative into the weekend.

Question for @Zee09 , do any of your platforms allow you to load in an order for execution at a specific time - ie Sell all @ market at @3:55 PM today?

I don't see that...The only exotic thing I can do is put in a buy and sell order with prices in one shot...
I'm sure those managed accounts offer that at a fee but not the basic platforms...that is rather an interesting option that I could use...

I don't have a direct line to the folks in charge like others here we know. I have to put it all on red 7 and hope my timing is on.

You know if it were up to me specific time trades would be a thing!

If you can make it work I'm all for it

I presume everyone here knows - but 80% of all gains happened after hours over the last 20 years.

So I am assuming on the way down they will all happen after hours also - so I don't want to be real long on the weekend.

12 years or so ago I bought Chesapeake energy call options , as soon as I bought the options I put a sell in for 6x for what I paid . A week later I wake up and check my account and somebody bought my options. Price really hadn't changed on the stock much . I called Scottrade immediately and asked him if they were going to cancel that trade that somebody made by mistake ? . They said no . Someone's fat finger worked out well for me that day .
