AAPL, TLON & Extended Watchlist

Apple, Inc. AAPL -Options

We don’t normally put option-plays in the newsletter, but when we do, it seems to work very nicely. Our mention of the $605 and $610 Calls yielded the opportunity for big gains. The Apple $605 Calls traded as low 4.70, and hit a high of 9.90, for over 100%, and the $610 Calls, traded as low as 2.85, and touched a high of 6.90, for 142% in gains.

Since Apple looks like it wants to gap up above $615, we want to move our strike price up and look at the $620 and $625 Calls. The $620’s closed at 2.42 yesterday, and the $625’s were at 1.65. In the event that AAPL can break the $620 mark, $630 and $640 will be the next resistance points.

Talon Therapeutics, Inc. TLON

We observed TLON dip to close at 1.21, and we are expecting a rebound into the company’s Aug.12th FDA date.

It is to be expected to see pullbacks after the three consecutive days of gains that preceeded it, and it provides folks who were late to the party last time a chance to get in on the fun.
