Watching

I just added these tickers to my chart watchlist based on a fundamentals screen. Some have issues, others have already run well following their last earnings report.

CDNS, DDD,  GLNG, LPSN, MLNX, NQ, SNCR, TRMB, and XXIA.

We have a couple of networking equipment stocks, some 3-D printing and CAD stocks, some mobile/cloud players, and a LNG shipper.

More Positions

I got the MNTA puts, so it can tank now please.

I added long positions in PAY and SPRD.

I've been moving back into the market since Wednesday morning. Before that, I was just sitting on my ARR which has some decent cap gains ... enough to drop the yield to 15.9%.

Moving In

Long on AAPL, ABT, ARR, FTK. SLRC, TAL, and TICC. Looking to short MNTA with puts.

Digging Deeper

I'm still buying, more MPEL shares and calls.

The short May $10 FTK calls were assigned and executed through yesterday, so I executed the June $7.50 calls to cover, +29.3%.

The same will probably happen with my WYN spread. The ABT shares will be called, and the WPRT calls will expire worthless.

The FIip Side

Sometimes you go back to the well too soon. Both AAPL and CMG have pulled back and stayed there (or worse). I chose to sell the May AAPL calls (-34.7%) to balance my account. I then bought some MPEL shares with the extra cash.

I bought some OAS shares for a small account.

Fizzle

That was a disappointing end after a promising open. JPM's news won't help things tomorrow.

I bought shares of FTK, MPEL, and TAL, call options for FTK, and rolled my May CMG calls into June.

Rough Market

Now would be a good time to be sitting this market out. Sheez.

I made no trades today but yesterday I closed out May CLMT calls, +24.4%, and June FTK calls (small account), +11.4%. I was almost a day too late on the CLMT.

I rolled May calls to June for FTK and WYN and sold at the money May calls.
