Apple Call Trade Ends

The Apple December $130 call trade ended with the stock declining and the option price hitting the stop loss price. Some reasons for the trade ending are below.

- KDK Options money management policies are designed to make sure that we are always able to capitalize on opportunities. This requires a specific design towards stop loss policy when a legitimate opportunity slips into hope territory.

- The likelihood of a rally past $130 by December 18th was greatly diminished by the stock falling below $120.

- The weekly chart showed a candle top last week with a strong red candle this week.

- While still bullish on Apple in general, the December time frame for the trade required a consistent bullish move which yesterday's action removed.
