    time was,

    AMD was heavily debt ridden, on the brink of bankruptcy.
    INTC had floated a loan to the cash-strapped small chip maker to keep it operational,
    to ensure that there would not be monopolistic law suits against the behemoth chip maker​

    From the brink of bankruptcy to a 1,300% gain in stock price:
    How this CEO, [​IMG], turned around her company.

    CSV up 13% today on record earnings. Will let what I have left ride awhile (lost most of it to covered calls).

    had closed all my CALLs last Thu when AMD gained 9+ points.

    yesterday, checked the options quotes for this week as well as the next 2 weeks, and found that there were huge OI on OTM strike CALLs, 70 and above.

    on that basis, decided to join the party and bought a 70 strike CALL, 20 contracts expiring this coming Fri, to bet on a post ERS run-up.

    just sold it this morning for a nice pop

    [​IMG]
    yesterday CVS's trading action showed a bullish hirami suggesting a trend reversal, a bounce off the lower channel line,
    today's trading action confirms that hirami yesterday. i m looking for a pop off the "W" / lower channel line, goin into the 5 Aug ERS

    Haha, tell me about it. I was thinking the same thing... Like once I miss a jump I'll move on, and normally we're right about not chasing, but lately some of these rockets are ridiculous. Of course if I ever decide to go against that plan I'm sure it'd reverse and I'd be stuck with bags.

    KODK went from a $2 stock to a $60 stock in less than 2 days. It’s back “down” to $39 right now. I thought when it popped to $11 yesterday morning and fell to $6ish the run was over, but.... damn. I’m not sure if/when I’ve seen anything like this.

    same.
    I texted my buddy yest when i saw it went 2 to 8. i said oops missed that one. not gonna chase now.
    But i didnt realize trump mentioned it in his press conference yest after market close.
    so this PM...it started spiking again....i thought maybe it goes to 10-12 at most and i wasn't going to chase.

    it got halted a bunch of times lol. good luck to all the 60$ bag holders.

    Took a look at puts on KODK then took a look at NKLA - took 1 month to go from $13 to $90 and another month to go down to $30. May take awhile for the momentum to subside. hmm

    is there a good site for tracking unusual volume? Needs to be relative to the specific stock's normal volume, not just the biggest movers of the day. If there's desperation within the admin that time may be running out... we could see more of these shenanigans...

    Unusual volume is listed on almost every stock screener. There is also unusual options activity as well.

    Hahah, the SEC is more broken than normal, especially if they don't at least slap someone on the wrist over this.
