I'm so pissed off, I feel like buying some AMZN calls.
Jan'19 1550 calls are $10,400.
But I can't afford to take that risk.
=====================
Now $12,500
EZ money!
TODAY:
$21,940
Too bad I was too chicken to buy it.
FEAR sux.

My guess is, that option will be worth $30K soon.

sandjco bought AMZN for $1,598 on Nov 1, 2018

Fear is a strong emotion. We all have fears. But your fear today is different from your fear
from a few days ago. Your fear today seems to be FOMO fear of missing out.
If the real reason you froze was the size of risk.
Someone in this forum once gave this advice: if we are afraid of buying 10 shares,
would we buy just 1?
TRO and riggs had some good posts In the early years on buying bottoms.
The cmadma7 filter from you and Mac can also help you decide on AMZN.
TheStockWhisperer has this trading advice: When in doubt, stay out.

If we apply a couple of sandjco's indicators to AMZN, then we may get a chart like this

THAT is exactly what I do!
My problem is, I stay OUT at the bottom; I don't get in at the bottom. But frankly, who knows where the bottom is? I thought $1500 was the bottom on AMZN because there was a HUGE gap there.
( msg #145085 10/28/2018 1:39:56 PM BTW, AMZN has an unfilled gap around $1500 or so.)
And that's exactly what happened.
That AMZN option I posted was a "if I had the guts, here's what I'd do ..."
Obviously, it would've paid off handsomely.
I will continue to track it and ... feel bad.

@ Cheese,
THANKS for bringing the info in the archives to my attention.
I've put the reversal filter w/ LR channels in the Public Filter List, so I don't forget it.
