I closed out of the position today, because I didn’t like the way it was trading. Yesterday Goldman Sachs posted a report that said that China tariffs would hurt At Home. I was sitting on about 10% profit and it plunged on the news and I had a -2% loss midday. It recovered, but I felt that something was really wrong with the market. Normally there is not a 12% in the price of this company.

I still will be watching this company for some time, because I like the story of the stock and think that it could be a long term play later

I bought 1 OTM $40 Call with September 21, 2018 Expiration. It is a few weeks until the report earnings and the chart has been shaping up as it is approaching
I place a Limit order at $1.20 during the morning and the stock was at $37.12. The stock started the morning up and I was not filled right away. The stock must have drifted down some in the afternoon or a market maker wanted my money to take the other side and I got filled

This option expired worthless and I lost the whole amount. This one I had bought the option within the earnings date and was expecting a good bounce, but…
That didn’t happen and the down move wiped out the value. It never recovered
Feeling kinda aggravated with option buying set up. I was buying a call 2-3 weeks ahead of an earnings announcement. Here’s the rub – the company adjusted the reporting date. When that it hit the stock broke down and wiped out all value on option. Drat
This is a numbers game strategy and I’m having trouble with that style
