frommi Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I don`t know if this was a great idea, but i just bought a lottery ticket. I bought BP 52$ Calls for 0.04 that end on friday next week. When BP rises by 8-10% this is a 100 bagger which is possible when it breaks out through its february top next week. Slowly my old demons are coming through again, but i found this a good risk/reward scenario. Anybody out there who likes to punch me in the face for throwing my money away gambling?

The NYSE is the world's largest casino, we're all gambling in a roughly zero-sum game, but which in the long run can put the aggregate gamblers ahead by a small 5-10% per year.

What was your position size as a percentage of your portfolio? I'm usually not a fan of short term trades, since I tend to over size all of my positions. I'm no technical analyst, but at least it looks like the stock is in something of an uptrend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frommi Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 0.1%, its just a gamble with good odds. But i forgot to look at dividend paydates, wednesday is the ex-div date. The last time i did these kind of things was 3 years ago, but i was not very successful doing only this. (Because i was too greedy, let my profits run away and overtrading.)
