    So, buy ahead of the earnings or wait for the earnings report results?

  • Here's What Happens When You Ignore Your Portfolio [View article]
    Bought in on Tuesday to short Appl , had my a** handed to me !! Bottmed @ 678.So in essence I got raped twice once by the market and once filing my returns, which I had to pay cap gain taxes. but anyways, I prayed hard, then even harder for a miracle and it worked! APPL shot up to just shy of $610. Now I'm out of the hole! Too many variables as to why the decline, so I called on my "trump" card, GOD!
    Man, AAPL is the hardest stock to trade!!

  • What A High Beta Means For Apple [View article]
    Not only did APPL reverse course, its price per share surpassed Google pps by the end of the trading session and after hour trading session. But yes, your article was released a bit late...

    Please, take your profits...I hate to see investors lose out on profit taking when an opportunity presents itself. Forget about $2.50-$3.00 pps, don't leave profits on the table. Remember the old adage "a bird in hand is worth 2 in the (siri) bush".

    I wasn't expecting it to go down that low to begin with... I waited patiently and I decided to purchase @611.50, no sooner than I placed the trade it started to trade much lower. I was upset to say the least. I then decided to work on damage control. I'm just relieved that I found an exit point higher than what I purchased for. No worries, You didn't blow that one..You just went with the information that you had..No big deal...

    This Foxcon audit thing appears to be more "serious" issue then I expected, no pun intended. It continued to drive the price down after hours. That and money managers taking profits before tomorrow. We might even see APPL opening lower than $605, maybe below $600. I'm kind of hoping I'm wrong. but if I'm not it could be a great entry point. Bond auctions in Spain I think are going to be a major market mover tomorrow along with US Economic Data.

    Cameron,
    Whats your thoughts on the after hours trading on AAPL? Its currently trading at $606.75....I pull the trigger on AAPL @ $611.50, as luck would have it it spiraled downward, I waited for it to go up and sold @ $612...I made a $100..lol, I guess thats better than losing $1000 with how it closed..Man did I dodge a bullet!!!

    That was another good call, use said $609, but I'm not splitting hairs, I had to run out take of some errands, I set the purchase shares for $605, in case while I was gone if it dropped that low it would execute a buy. Came back noticed it only dropped to about $610.31. I was suprised it didnt go lower.

    APPL held its ground today, I think there were many buys that kept it a float throughout todays session. Asian markets are swimming in a sea of red tonight again, futures are in the red. Perhaps since tomorrow is the penultimate day of trading for the qtr there's a sell off. I'm ready for tomorrow, if there is any significant dip I'll monitor and jump in. Again everything may hinge on economic data.

    I've been very disciplined to not chase the stock. I have been tempted once or twice to jump back in, but I keep telling myself wait for it...wait for it...I'm ahead as far as profits are concerned so no need to jump in while throwing caution to the wind. However, I do miss seeing those enormous swings as my shares increase in price and profits. Sometimes I think I'm just plain greedy...lol

    Cameron,

    I've done my due diligence in respects to research before jumping back in, still waiting for a better entry point, might even wait until the aftermath tomorrow. Its rather funny because I was thinking that I bet if I had purchase shares of AAPL this morning at $617-619, I can guarantee you the price of AAPL would be south of $600 by now....lol

    I'm on it, going to get it ready tonight,I'll be watching like a hawk tomorrow!! I mentioned earlier a sell-off, as the price started to dip south of $613 and then the Nasdaq followed the Dow into negative territory, VIX was creeping up. The sell-off that erroneously referred to, may have been an imbalance between buys and sells.

    Asian Markets have drifted lower based on US markets pull back. I Have to see how European markets react to all of this. Could be a good indication on how our markets are going to open. However, the US market futures seem to be tracking in the green, but I know that could be meaningless..It may turn out to be a very interesting day especially with all the economic data being released tomorrow..

    Wasn't feeling the overwhelming desire jump back in before the close. Maybe tomorrow AAPL shares will pullback some as it has been occuring recently. I'm trying to take as much profits on the way to $700.

    I was at this juncture last week with AAPL and then that lousy PMI number was released from China.....I could not believe it..I believe the reason why the markets are moving today is because of the effects that Uncle Ben had yesterday when he spoke. We may be riding on fumes from that fed meeting. So I'm very skeptical as far as tomorrow's markets potential to rally. AAPL has been known to retrace after rising $10 -$15 pps. I'm gonna have to wait until tomorrow to jump in. If tomorrow they rally, then I will be kicking myself in the rear...

    Actually $10 is pretty significant to me when I'm trading over 300 shares of Apple at a time. $10 loss per share would put me in a more than difficult position. But good job on calling the $615, its been bouncing back and forth between $614-$615

    Thats pretty much the norm with AAPL everyone piles in during the last 15 minutes of the trading day, its already started to move up in that direction. $615 easy. Maybe even 617. My concern is tomorrow how the stock will react, I dont want to chase it and all of sudden tomorrow turns down $10 pps..

    "This is my point. To me, the risk is even greater in waiting."

    Low trading volume will mean one less of a catalyst for the stock in my opinion. I believe shares will either hover or slip. I'm not sure how to trade Friday since many managers will maybe try to push the prices of stock to meet their clients portfolio objectives for the qtr. I think it will take place during the last trading hour of the day.
