yup. I bought calls expiring in January.

straddle has been on my head too but I'm too cheap. Option prices arent too bad so a straddle with a few months left til expiry intrigues me...reminds me of a time where i almost did a YELP straddle but got puts instead. Would've made some good money but instead i lost quite a bit.
made a quick $100...moved my expiry to March-2016 instead

I get that they just bought the thing but there's no way Twitter is announcing their earnings on Periscope with a miss, right? :heh:

bought a little bit ago I'm long 140 shares @ $36.19

may buy a put when I bytch out on this trade before the end of the day.


edit: I made like 1% on this already. I may just cash out and take the ~40 bucks after fees. I just heard from this trader I know that he is short TWTR and he's really good at his job, but the caveat is he's bearish on everything.

edit 2: he hedged. he's delta neutral. fukk it, I'm long into earnings.

I bytched out. I sold out of the position. made about 35 bucks.


edit: :snoop:

if that guy hadn't dumped so much of their stock about 10 minutes to close I probably would have held the position.

edit: all over the place now

PNRA did very well. My buddy bought calls on PNRA and BWLD (alerted me this morning) But I passed. (His earnings history and those premiums on calls) Looks like I missed a double on each.
:/

I imagine Twitter will rebound by the end of the week but long term I think I might be bearish about Twitter.

Down 10% after market, could be a nice quick swing trade play though.
