Gains review
– ROKU, started long with Calls for a break higher and locked 60% gains
– UPS got calls after report and locked +100% gains
– QQQ scalped shorts several times during the day for some cash flow but not much selling pressure, so it was basically get in, lock gains, move into the next one.
– PYPL got calls on bull flow and locked +65% gains and done.
Losses review:
– MCD was looking for a bounce up and gap filling after earnings, but stock lost momentum and had to assume my loss here. Later got back into the same contracts cheaper and was able to get some money back.
