Crude Oil’s breakdown Thursday afternoon triggered a tremendous amount of selling pressure throughout the morning, but may offer a swing buying opportunity soon, if 62s can hold. The ES and NQ are still holding firm near overall highs, and could still see buying opportunities soon, as well. I sold a put credit spread in $IRBT yesterday, and am doing the same today in $TSLA, as prices are now below the $245s. $TSLA tends to bounce hard after dropping into these levels. I’m still holding onto long term positions in $MXIM and $SCHW, and also triggered short term positions in both $TGT and $EW. Here are the levels and candidates we focused on during the morning session of the PivotBoss Trading Room.

  • $TMUS Closed last 1/3 position MAY 70 calls at 4.85 (bot 2.45)
  • $VMW Holding 1/4 position MAY 185/190 call spread at 1.63, took profits on 1/2 position at 3.15, took 1/4 profits at 3.89
