Apple falls
So AAPL fell $3 today, in the morning 7:00am I saw it going down. It was down $1-$1.3 I just ignored it and went to take a shower and get ready for work.
After I came down and watched CNBC, AAPP was down $5 to $180 I was upset and panicked…
I immediately logged in to my account and placed an order to sell the Nov 180 call for $5.80 which I had bought @ $5.45.
When I got to work I checked again I the order was filled…
I was relieved but was also upset that I could have sold the Calls for $8.9 only yesterday…
That mood made me do some more trading…
I saw AMZN falling $14 - $16 to $86 so I bought some puts (Nov 85 puts) @ $3.5
And bought some MER puts @ 4.5
By the end of the day both of my options have lost value…
AAPL has come backup again to almost $185… and the calls are worth $7.5
But I am out of AAPL…. Sad.

Apple went up
Apple went up $12. Now I am worried it may not move up any more! It may start moving down.
I may loose all the gains have made in it?Options haven’t gone up proportionally as the stock has? Tomorrow will be another un-decisive day.... I will have to face what to do if AAPL
- keeps moving up?
- moves down by lets say $5?
Should I sell and get out? or wait for it to come back up again?
How much would I want the stock to move up until:
- I decide to sell
- or buy some puts?

Apple's Earnings
Today AAPL came out with 60% increase in earnings year over year, MSN said:
"Apple Inc.'s fiscal fourth-quarter profits jumped 67 percent to cap a year that saw unprecedented momentum
Apple's stock price, which has more than doubled since January, rose $3.94, or 2.3 percent, to close at $174.36. After the earnings report, shares climbed about $12, almost 7 percent, in extended trading"
174.36 +3.94 +2.31%
After Hours: 186.09 +11.73 / +6.73% Vol. 14.95 Mil
So the stock went up more then $10 after hrs as I had expected.
The question is what should I do now... that is the delima. Should I sell early in the morning?
Or let it keep going up? Will it keep going up? Should I buy some puts now?
I am holding Nov 185 Calls, I dont know what will happen in the morning.
