Happy Valentine's Day

Wednesday evening thoughts

 think TSLA might have hit resistence at 200.

Due to my option plays, I want FB to cool off a little.

GOOG ready to break 1200

AMZN might be making a comeback

I plan to take some profit off the table. Protective options still are too expensive.

In the meantime, AAPL keeps on trucking

CMG Chipote just doesn't quit, does it.

Missed good opportunity on DATA. Had it at one time.

Is TWTR ready for a pause?

Stocks I'm watching very closely: MDSO and MU

Will the market see some love on Valentine's day ?

..................................


3:04pm  before the close, I pushed my Call option on FB out a month to Mar 14 by Closing the written Call 63 of Feb 14 and writing a FB Call 66 for mar 14. Net debit cost was 95 dollars plus commission. It basically saved me for getting called tomorrow on FB...I would have lost a gain of 286.00 (today's money) so instead I paid the $95 to push my call from 63 to 66 and out a month. Well worth it!

Winning is grabbing momentum, profiting from it and then releasing it



A winner must be willing to  embrace change and  welcome challenge. The biggest “fear,” if there is  one, is not of the unknown, but of becoming complacent and stagnant. An environment of change and even uncertainty can energize a mentally strong person and bring out their best. 

A winner is willing to take calculated risks. This is a different thing entirely than jumping headlong into foolish risks. But with mental strength, an individual can weigh the risks and benefits thoroughly, and will fully assess the potential downsides and even the worst-case scenarios before they take action

Regarding the Catching Fire portfolio. My real account in part mimics most but not all  of the same stocks at different buying prices and different quantities.

                                                                                       Are you going after the big fish?
This site isn't all about the stock market. However, with the daily updating of the stock market, it took most of my time. I am still going to discuss  the stock market but also  going to relate more to other parts of this site - such as the paintings, my hobbies such as estate sale treasure hunting, movies, autos, etc.
I have developed a good following if the Blogger statistics I get are correct. It will be interesting to see how they change in the coming months. As stated, I will start a new public stock market portfolio. There's so technical issues to work out. One being displaying Options.


Catching Fire started during thanksgiving week, Nov 2013
