Down but about to rebound? Only stock picks

[OfTheCross]

So the profit is the difference between the strike price and the share price after to goes beyond your target?

Is that difference times 100?

Current stock price: $30.
Put option strike price: $20.
Stock goes down to $18.
You sell the stock option (is there another term for this?).
Profit = $200 (2 x 100) ?

No.

The profit or loss (if you sell the option) is the difference between the option price when you bought and and the option price when you sold it.

So, if the stock price is :$30
Put option at a strike price of $20 costs: $5
Stock goes down to $18
Depending on when you sell the option determines if you make a profit and how much.

Time decay hurts you.

So where does the 100 shares come in to play?

1 contract = 100 shares

If you want to trade options practice with a calculator. Long call/put are regular calls/puts, put the ticker symbol in either one, click select option to choose your strike price and click calculate. Hover your cursor over prices above and below it to see profit/loss. It shows you time decay too, look at your profit on the 13th if you closed a position and what it would be the 21st if you waited for the same price target.

Thats the minimum shares 1 contract equals.

To put it in simpler terms, u gamblimg on wether a stock will rise or fall to a certain price during a certain amount of time.

I’ll drop a potential gem here.

Waitr (WTRH). Food delivery service company that is popular in Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi.

Company was bought out not to long ago by somebody who is really, really rich. Within the past year the stock has seen a high of $15 and has seen a low of .22 cents on November 18th.

I live in South Louisiana and this is the most popular food delivery service in my city and is similarly very popular in other rural cities in the surrounds. I have used this service with little to no issue and was very surprised how hard it fell since I live maybe 45 minutes from where it originated and of course, I use it. I got in at about .35 cents a couple weeks ago and now it is currently .51. If you do your due diligence you’ll see this company has a way to go before going under and is technically very over sold.

This stock I mentioned a couple months ago above jumped up 75% today.

They released their report yesterday and are hovering around a dollar premarket. I'm not gonna jump in yet because theyre good report gave them a temporary boost gonna wait for the hype to die down. Also corona is going to have people not want to order out much so this upcoming quarter most likely won't be good for them. Gonna read more into their 10k report, they seem to possibly have potential.

Y’all fukking with YUM?

 

[Chrome2279]

Beyond meat? Honestly not sure they been linking up with a lot of big companies lately. If they can get a deal with McDonald's that would go a long but at the same time more competition is coming out. I had some stocks but just sold them today. I don't think I would buy back in better stocks out there with more potential.

Like which stocks?

Jumped from $1 to $2.40 now.

Went from losing half my portfolio in a week due to this damn virus to doubling up my original entry all time. Life is wild.

Here are a few I am looking at and a few reasons why:

DNLI: Biotech - Management remains on track to nominate a candidate for further Phase 2 studies by mid-2020 with additional Phase 1 DNL151 data in Parkinson's disease patients to come (super risky: RealMoney)


UBER: Super low and the fact that they are in partnership with Chipotle. Unsure what today brings: After hours 15.63 +0.81 (5.47%)

BA (Boeing): 6+ years low; should get bailout though risky.

A lot of stock are down. As always, posting here before I buy and before it blows (or crashes).

Feel free to advise, for/against or your own ...

Buying Uber stock seems to be a no brainer. The question is how many stock is reasonable to cop? what you think?

 

[UncleTomFord15]

Bought FB and rite aid. Going long on FB will hold Rite Aid for a year or two to see if their new ceo is really about it like that.

If you look at the biotech thread.. I mentioned bcrx /sbbp probably 3 months ago or so (saw 20% / 100% respectively) ... current holdings are
Labd (3x levered biotech ect)
Tvix (3x levered VIX futures)
Ruby
nrbv

might be to late for the first two... but like the last. Don’t post too much here anymore. Will try to at least in stock related threads. Had an informal interview with a start up based value fund last Friday (before the drop) thought it went well but lol the timing...

JP Morgan slashes forecast for U.S. GDP, sees 14% Q2 drop

Straight up depression numbers.....

tvix posted this at ~100 shyt hit 1000 yesterday lmfao...
labd hit 100%....
