Extreme Trade Updates (1/28/19) — Big Wins and Even More Opportunities
January 28, 2019Overall, we have a good deal of open positions at the moment, and continue to hold most. We’ve also been a bit cautious on issuing a great deal of new trades given the sizable volatility on the markets, especially after the massive decline on the Dow we saw in December 2018.
It’s better to be safe, and pick out the right trades in this market, than risk picking out garbage that sinks the second you buy it. I don’t know about you. But I’d rather be safe in this market right now.
Here’s what we continue to hold.
Square Inc. (SQ) — $59.55 — exited half
SQ February 2019 60 calls — $4.65 — exiting half
SQ March 15, 2019 75 calls — $3.90
Shares of SQ are now up to $78. Hold the second half of the stock. The SQ February 2019 60 calls now trade at $18.35. Sell to close the second half of these calls.
The SQ March 2019 75 calls now trade at $7.80. Sell to close half of the trade to secure the win.
Once you do that, consider also adding the SQ March 15, 2019 80 and 85 calls.
