RE:RE:RE:RE:Notes on the coming March 31 financialsI hear ya, Yasch. The patterns, analyst interpretations, misinformation (honest ignorance), and disinformation (purposeful deceit), as well as other variables have made holding 'all in' through earnings a fools game. As long as I can remember, you've spoken of maintaining a core position and a trading position. I have fallen prey to holding all in on a few occasions and would like to think I've learned that lesson. I'll blame it on greed and an optimistic nature. :) My more disciplined self now reminds the greedy dwolf of how badly that sting can seer the soul. In other words, I'd rather make a little less while ensuring I can remain in the game... that is, from my perspective, BlackBerry has long been a when and not if proposition. Puts are useful as insurance on long position. There are also straddle techniques. I'm not a technician, though. Almost entirely invested in January 2024 leaps... mostly deep in the money, but last few weeks spreading out a bit to some higher strikes at 3 to 1 and 4 to 1 ratios. It's a Bullish move that can (WILL in my mind) pay off handsomely when we run. A serious run (Reddit or other) can easily result in a smartly purchased and managed options account moving 5,000 - 10,000%... I digress. Tomorrow and Thursday I will be selling a bit, but less than usual due to present SP and market cap. May go to cash, but more likely will buy more CLOV in lieu of cash... perhaps a combination. Will NOT go the put route this ER. My gut and common sense tells me things are going well for BlackBerry and that Chen will be offering up a positive call. And don't forget the G Man who now has 4/5 months or so under his belt. Love the ads I'm seeing on ST.
