Just sold my 100 shrs and made $900.
==============================================
Congrats, karennma
It was a gutsy move, and you banked coins.
Some peeps may not realize that trades like yours were part of Option Of The Day on Mar 11
See tweets by AllDayFaders @team3dstocks and Tyler Strunk @T_Strunk:
Stock: The stock went from $365.55 to $402.67 = 10% move.
Option: The $405 Calls went from $0.01 to $6.25 = 62,400% move.
A $10 investment this morning wouldve turned into $6,240.
$100 into $62,400
$1000 into $624,000
$10,000 - $6.24 million

Proof - options are the way to go.
My problem with options is, you have no guarantee.
At least when trading the stock, if it moves in the opposite direction, you can wait it out, because you still own the stock. With options, your time is limited.
BTW, do you know what MONTH & STRIKE they used?
Edit:
Okay strike was 405. I guess the month was March something ...

Sorry, karennma, I don't trade options and I don't know what they use.
But you can create your own PRIVATE and PROTECTED Twitter account,
and exchange info strtictly within your own circle of Following and Followers only.
Even with a non-PROTECTED Twitter account, you can DM Direct Message
the accounts I'vementioned and other Twitter accounts for private info.
There are still some good people on Twitter.
sF member 15minofPham knows optons well and is active on Twitter,
Good luck trading.

Looking at charts of options ... I don't see that at all.

@ Cheese,
Thanks for the info ...
Honestly, I tend not to "follow" a bunch of traders because I just don't have the time, which is why I'm barely on Stockfetcher anymore. I'm just doing other things.
The ONLY reason why I did the $BA trade is because it was obvious to me what was gonna happen.
Frankly, it's unlikely you'll see a similar post from me in the near future.
GLTY.

@karennma,
You are right. Don't allow any followers and don't follow anyone.
But a PROTECTED Twitter account can be an excellent INFO MANAGEMENT tool
by bookmarking posts you like AND to twit your own important charts info
and reminders to yourself.
But be prepared for Twitter computers to mistake your twits for propaganda from
foreign adversaries and organizations, and they shut down your account.
Good luck. karen.

BTW,
I've not read any of the news on the BA crashes.
If BA got any parts manufactured in China, IMHO, therein lies their problem.

I missed out on BA after the $50 fall, but I did buy options on it yesterday when the underlying was at 373 level. I played some as a day trade (good money) and holding 4 more calls for Apr monthly expirations.

Good 4 U snappy!
BA is a great stock because they ain't going outta business.
And no one is trying to break them up (i.e., AMZN).
Acutally, I find THIS story interesting ... about the man who was denied boarding because he checked in too late. He's probably still in church crying ... and thanking God.

@ Cheese,
Thanks for AlldayFaders on TWTR. Definitely worth reading!
15minofPHAM makes my head spin.
At my age, the LESS info I have to read, the better!
LOL!
