Can you image how more fun it is to get up in the morning, when your investment goes from 9¢ to $1.64 in the span of 2 days. I'm now 9¢ (how ironic) from break even, and APPL is only $5.xx away from max value.
I guess twisting myself into a pretzel worked.

Over $420 on a Tuesday morning. If this keeps up/holds, watch OI on the 420s come down this evening to give us room to build off of it.

I guess twisting myself into a pretzel worked. this is an example of why even when the option looks dead, ya gotta still hope! and why people are so tempted by options market to begin with. how many times have you said to yourself so far, 'man imagine if i grabbed a bunch more at 9 cents' haha. anyway almost 2 hours in so it looks like today passed the 90 day test. first break of 420 just hit already which seems to be a great sign. |

Up over 410. But there is a call wall there.....can we hold on and move on up...? That Forbes article had the best "tone" of any Forbes article on Apple in eight months.. The calls do jump up from 405 to 410, but we've seen how the range can shift down quickly when the price plummets- I could see it shift up quickly too after these two days. Granted it is a very short week. 405: 4499 410: 8424 415: 7977 420: 9440 While the individual walls aren't that big compared to other weeks/months, I do think that 410-420 combo of 25k is def a big hurdle. Maybe it's a little bit of a payback for the many many weeks of crushed calls that has occurred thus far. Max Pain talk. Max Pain doesn't exist.  |

Sold the 398's I bought last week at 420.21
Will reenter on Friday of this week, I think....I suspect we will be at 420 or less BWDIK.

The only thing I don't like about this rally is how fast it's going. We need a rally that can accelerate as it goes, not one that goes fast as first and then stalls after a few days or weeks. Feels like we've had several of the latter type since September and they always start fast. True! Love the upwards action we've had in these two days but I'm sure we all have this feeling in the back that this might be a temporary thing like it's been many a times before. Would hate to see it fall back under 400 again but that might also be another (maybe the last chance) to add to our positions. We just made our HOD @ 421.60 |

We just made our HOD @ 421.60 If we went back under 400 to around 390 that would be a triple bottom and those generally don't hold. As it is now we are at a double bottom and maybe a little w v bullish pattern. Last pattern we that was ID'd was a inverted h and s and we know how that ended up ... |

I'm just wondering if the action this week isn't an extension of Bernanke's comments.
When he first spoke bonds sold off big time, and in doing so spooked the equity markets.
But, if you think about it, Bernanke's comments only affected bonds. They were positive for equities because of the implication that the US economy no longer requires a fast and loose money policy to stimulate it. The concern now is inflation, the by-product of a growing economy.
Now where do you think all that cash, derived from dumping bonds, is going to go if the economy is gaining strength?
Just the same, I'm going to send Bernanke my Maalox bill.
AAPL isn't today, and wasn't yesterday, on the Selling on Strength list.

As mentioned in a couple of earlier posts, my only concern in the action lately is volume.
I am getting very anxious to buy some more AAPL. I was planning on waiting till we get closer to the earnings call oraybe after.
Anyone think Tim Cook would give me an early preview of guidance if I asked very very nicely in an email.

We are now 15dollars above Peter Miseks 12month target of 405. I expect we will be hearing from him soon regarding channel/supply checks showing weakness by the end of the week.

Feeling good about my purchase on Monday morning. Let's hope it holds up.

Misek is the next Ed Zabitsky. That's not a compliment. For as critical as CNBC is toward AAPL, one would think they could drive ratings by banging on Peter's pecker over his lousy calls. |

As iPad pointed out in the EW thread, remember that there is a fairly large gap beneath us that wants to be filled.

Another good, solid upper-level close! And pretty good volume too at least compared to recently. As a bonus, no added gaps.  |

I am having a hard time picturing a big market for an iwatch. Particularly if it works in tandem with another iDevice. For health and sports, sure. For Everyman, not so sure. The iPod and iPhone were instantly understood and coveted (by me!). Wearable computing, not so much, particularly when my phone has disrupted so many devices for me. Including being the only time piece/alarm clock I use. All that said, I welcome any and all additions to an iOS ecosystem. |

iWatch must be able to play music without connecting to another iOS device and be truly water proof.
That would be huge for the fitness market.

I almost think all these trademark registrations are nothing more than Apple denying others their use. Right, even without announcing the product, iWatch is identified as an Apple product. What happens if Apple doesn't announce an iWatch, and the mark remains available? Nothing good for the brand I'll bet. |

AAPL at $400 is I.N.S.A.N.E. and I don't mind this marginal lift one little bit. |

Nothing good for the brand I'll bet. Did you see Mary Meeker's PowerPoint slides? Do you really think Apple is going to protect iWatch in such a public way and not use it? Did you miss Tim's comments at WWDC? The upside from iWatch is going to be equal parts the device itself and an accessory that sells more iPhones. How many times do you take your phone out of your pocket? About 100x? Wouldn't you prefer to glance at your wrist instead? There's already a market for fitness devices which probably justifies iWatch all by itself. But iWatch will offload approximately 70-80% of what you're currently pulling out of your pocket. |
