https://www.traderschoice.net/money-page--stock-picks.html
Total of 4 contracts traded total so far today even "after" he posted the pick. All trades at 5.00 or 5.05. I will give him 5.00.
Since teh chart says it'll see $52 and is now signaling sell already I will post the other side of the trade via the 9/8 expiry $52 puts at the current .83.
8/18/17 update on my QCOM short against Greg's long call: 2:44 PM EST. Last trade on teh QCOM $52 puts for 9/8 expiry is 1.31 with teh bid now at 1.21...asked at 1.30. I'll sell these ifn teh asked breaks below 1.25...otehrwise hold. QCOM now signaling a short term buy so I will exit if it rallies on moderate buying volume from the current 52.15...ish area..."live!" Price paid was .83.

8/21/17 update: Same plan as Fri. QCOM is moving lower so the bid on the 9/8 expiry $52P's (puts) is moving higher. I go out if the asked breaks below 1.25. Otherwise I will hold for a potential 100% gain so limit to sell at 1.70 to cover all costs "if" QCOM continues to move looower.
8/18/17 10:45 AM update: Bid now at 1.51 so now I move my stop up to 1.40 bid. That gar-own-tees at least a 50% gain. Still shooting for 1.70 to exit though. That's a "1005er"...and that's what I shoot fer. QCOM now at 51.55...ish.
8/21/17 update: Sometime during the day the QCOM 9/8 expiry $52 puts were sold at 1.40 so the trade netted 68% before commish costs. No way we will ever know what Greg did with his last two trades logged in before he deleted the trading blog where he posts his picks. I guess Greg gave up after he was caught "misrepresenting" a GOOGL trade. "Probly" better that he didn't log in "actual" pricing on the trades. If Greg brings back his posted picks I will continue to track his trades.
