Using A Triple Calendar Spread To Trade Google Earnings

Posted: 16 Oct 2012 04:33 PM PDT

One of the most useful characteristics of options is their ability to control risk and achieve a high probability of success when trading impending earnings announcements.

Hot Option Plays: Do Not Force The Trade After Hours

Posted: 16 Oct 2012 03:18 PM PDT

Cusick’s Corner 10-16-2012 After Hours
The market held the strong gains of the Midday and swing traders have had plenty to do early in this earnings season. It is funny how this market goes from over extension on the downside to over extension on the upside in a matter of days but volatility does not move. One might say the lack of volatility might be due to the thin market volume but that seems counter intuitive to anyone who has traded options in a thin market, volatility should be higher if … [visit DailyMarkets.com to read more] or compare Best Mortgage Rates, Credit Card Rewards or Best Credit Cards

Hot Option Plays: Oversold Bounce Midday

Posted: 16 Oct 2012 12:33 PM PDT

Cusick’s Corner 10-16-2012 Midday
We are getting a nice bounce after a 4 session pullback (on what is typically a bullish week – Expiration) and some decent earnings out of the Financials, XLF, and Healthcare, XLV. I take this as a healthy bounce in an oversold market in an overall upward trend. The Small Caps will be back on my radar; these domestic, economically sensitive stocks are my canary in the coalmine and at this stage, they are still chirping but it has been in a decent downtrend, IWM … [visit DailyMarkets.com to read more] or compare Best Mortgage Rates, Credit Card Rewards or Best Credit Cards


Whom Should Pandit Thank For “Resignation?”

Posted: 16 Oct 2012 12:29 PM PDT

Speculation is running rampant as to whether Citigroup (NYSE:C)'s Vikram Pandit voluntarily resigned this morning or was pushed off the ledge?
It defies logic to think that Pandit and his sidekick John Havens decided that it was simply time to turn the keys to the store over to new leaders. I also do not think for a second that these "resignations" were the result of a clash with the board over Citi (NYSE:C)'s strategy and performance.
Then what prompted these seismic shifts within the … [visit DailyMarkets.com to read more] or compare Best Mortgage Rates, Credit Card Rewards or Best Credit Cards
