McDonald's. It's Difficult To Fight Strong Stocks.

Here is McDonalds five day chart at the close on Wednesday. Now here is it's three month chart. Now consider this. In two days the stock is up about twelve dollars. I often talk about Wednesdays being the one day in the week the markets can do reverals. Today the DJIA was up over four hundred points and McDonalds was down 60 cents. It dipped on the opening and came back a bit and then selling pressure came into the stock again on the closing. I personally hate McDonald's food. The internet has tens of Youtube videos saying their fries are poisonous. Yet I get it. But think about this. Whenever a new residential subdivision goes in anywhere in North America there is room for another one of their restaurants to go in. They just pop up and everyone knows what they are. Here now is a snippet I posted in a past McDonald's blog. After a lackluster trading session today McDonald's could drop in the next two days or at least on a Thursday afternoon sell off.

Boeing - A One Day Chart That I Now Like / Boeing and Deere

Here is is.
Why do I like this chart? It spiked on high volume in the morning and volume came into it on the close. So here is what I did. If you see charts like this you could be also be doing this. On a cautionary note Boeing has hit a rough patch as of late but this trade might be good for a one dollar profit. If it happens take the money and run. If you miss a four dollar move to the upside so what. Here is a fill at 3:37 p.m. on a Tuesday which I could have got for less a few minutes later. I bought one contract for $2.01 or two hundred and one dollars.
Here is Boeing's five day chart of torture.
What might happen? Could it stumble on the morning trying to get fresh legs? Maybe. Here it is at noon the next day.
Here is what I did. (I am trying to show first time option traders the sizes of trades they can do). Remember I said that I got in at 201.00? A $2.42 price happened at 11:12 a.m. which was the time when I got out. It's American money. (Look at the chart and see how I was lucky to get out).
What next? Today is now Wednesday which is a good day for mid week reversals. Into Deere I went in the smallest of ways. You could be doing this too. Here is my "in-add-out trade". I am not proud of it but Deere options often blow up..
In at 12:27 p.m. and out at 1:05 p.m.. In at $300.00 and out at $350.00. Now watch this.
I missed this 2:00 p.m. action.
The Calls I sold at $350.00 then went on to trade as high as $755.00. I have talked about trading Deere Calls and Puts before. Wednesday's options that expire that Friday you can get you into some pretty good day trading opportunities.
