Taiwan Semiconductor Adr – TSM

Taiwan Semiconductor About Us

2020-06-01

This trade idea from my IBD Stock Screener in my review last night and I decided to pull the trigger

This first came on my radar when it was featured as #28 in IBD50 on Vol37 No 6 Week of May 08. 2020. Then TSM was featured on IBD Stocks on the Move on the 05/13 and 05/14. Currently it is #31 in IBD50 Vol 37 No 8. I am an Investor’s Business Daily guy and highly recommend all of their efforts

During my weekly review I had liked the charts and I decided on buying an In-The-Money Call Option just past earnings. If earnings get adjusted back this position is screwed\

I placed a Buy to Open Limit Order with the price split between the previous Bid/Ask spread. However it opened higher and did not get filled. I was nervous after lunch that I wouldn’t get filled

I cancelled the order and set the price .30 higher splitting the current Bid/Ask spread. I got filled at $2.80 with 2 contracts
