Hi Shoppers,

All you need to do is simply show up tonight at 8 p.m. Be there.
In the meantime, I have a couple of trade ideas for today …
Trade Wheel Keeps on Spinning
Since my last two trade ideas (in LOW and AMD) didn’t pan out, I have two new ones for you today.
Of course, the good news on the previous pair is that I didn’t lose any money. They were ideas if the stocks had moved down, which they didn’t.
No trade … no loss. We live to trade another day!
Now, check out this doji in Haliburton (TIcker: HAL):
HAL has gone straight up 39% since Sept. 20. Yesterday’s doji could be signaling a reversal in this uptrend.
If HAL opens and trades lower today, I will be a buyer of the Nov. 19 26-strike puts for around $1.15.
These are a good value with 32 days until expiration. I will take my losses if they trade down to $.80. I will begin profit taking $2 and above.
My other trade idea is in Alcoa (Ticker: AA):
AA has gone up from $31 on July 19 (a doji candle) to a high on Monday of $57.57. Yesterday’s large red candle is a bearish engulfing candle as it engulfs the entire green candle formed on Monday.
I think it is possible for AA to pull back to $46.
Looking at the options, I like the regular November expiration cycle:
If AA opens and trades lower today, I will be a buyer of the Nov. 19 53-strike puts and a seller of the Nov. 19 48-strike puts. I will pay $1.75-$1.80 for this five-point spread with 32 days to go.
I will begin to take profits at $3 and take my losses if the spread trades down to $1.25.
Be sure to show up tonight for Frank and Andrew — that’s all you need to do to ramp up your trading account into the end of the year. Easy!
Thanks for Reading … See You Tonight!
