GILD pulls down IBB

Gild add a great quarter IMO. Gilead posted strong fourth-quarter results with both earnings and revenues beating our expectations. We are nevertheless concerned about additional pricing measures to reduce HCV spending in the form of rebates and discounts which could lead to a slowdown in Harvoni sales in 2015. The company’s 2015 revenue guidance came in below our expectations. The stock was down in early trading. We note that several companies including AbbVie Inc. (ABBV) have launched their HCV treatments in the market. So with that IBB went down to $305.11. I bought a few IBB Mar 20, 2015 Calls at $8.50 and sold at $9.30 made a little money. Missing buying more at the bottom. I still have 42 IBB Feb 20, 2015 Calls at $322.50. Hoping for a $8 move up soon. IBB closed at $312.55 with a range of $305.11 to $314.68. May buy some GILD Calls if it goes down to $95. If IBB goes down to $305 again will buy 10-20 Mar 20 $315 Calls. Good luck in this rigged casino.

IBB down down down then up up to close at $317.79

I missed posting Monday, it was a good day for me, bought at IBB's bottom and sold for some good money. Tuesday my timing was off and made the mistake of not buying a few options, I bought 20 and then 20 more and IBB went down 5 more dollars, very dumb. I start with buying 2 to 5 options when I think it's at it's low, then if I'm wrong I buy 5 to 10 more, if it still goes down I buy 20 more. So today I bought a total of 40 IBB Feb 20, 2015 $322.50 Calls way to early, the share price went down 5 more dollars. But I did have some extra money and was able to buy and sell 10 IBB March 20, 2015 $320 Calls at $11 and sold at $11.50. So I have a total of 42 IBB Feb 20, 2015 $322.50 Calls I need the share price to move up to $319.60 + of - a few cent to sell at in $6.10, I'm avg in at $5.60. So GILD just reported a very good quarter and it's in IBB so today I hope for a $2 plus open. IBB closed at $317.79 the range was $310.13 to $322. Good luck in this rigged casino.

IBB up up then down

Good day made some money. Sold 9 IBB June 19, 2015 $325 Calls at 21.90, sold 1 IBB Feb. 20, 2015 $325 at $8.20, bought and sold 2 IBB Mar 20, 2015 $325 Calls at $11.40 and sold at $12.60. At close I bought 2 Feb 20, 2015 $322.50 Calls at $8.10. Still have 5 IBB Mar 06, 2015 at $330 may be a bad hold. Could have sold at a small lost. We will see. IBB range was $321.06-329.16 and closed at $321.65. Good luck in this rigged casino.

IBB up

Well I missed the bottom of IBB again but I was there today , very upset. So upset I sold my IBB. I bought and sold 2 IBB Feb $325 at $8.50 and sold at $9.10. Made money so I should be happy. The range of IBB was $314.74-$323.01, closed at $322.85 BUT afterhours was $326.63 guessing some of the drug companies came in with good earning. For all the IBB Calls I have, I need IBB around $226-$328 to make money. Here's what I have IBB Mar 06 at 330, Jun 19 at 325, Feb 20 at $325 and my long hold IBB Jan 15 2016 Calls at $360. Still have OUTR Mar 20 Call at $70, waiting for earning Feb 5th. Good luck in this rigged casino.
