    What are your investing tasks?

    Wait for the dividends to hit my brokerage account, when it reaches $5K over estimated monthly expenses, add $4K to a lagging position; rinse, repeat.

    AAPL to replace T in the DOW

    Last puts struck $114s, this morning. Up about 12% since I started this thread. AAPL is due a bounce into the $120 long term support area. Don't like buying puts on stocks that have a RSI sub 30. AAPL is sitting at RSI 27 now.

    2B Warned You

    A pull back to the major averages was healthy. SPX and NDX are right on long term support and are oversold. We are set up for a nice bounce. I sold all my put options yesterday and added to GIS, BUD and GPC (cereal, beer and car parts - the staples).

    Poll:Do you wear a watch?

    Using it as an reading, texting, watching, app or game device would be cumbersome. Have to remember this is tech and tech is upgraded frequently. How many times will people buy a watch at this price point just to have to replace it when the next product cycle rolls out with the next big launch?

    Poll:Do you wear a watch?

    I just can't see having a conversation with my wrist. The battery life for using it as a cell phone is 6 hours and it takes 3 hours to charge. That is too tedious for me.

    Poll:Do you wear a watch?

    Thank you for all that voted. I was collecting my rubbish bins and my next door neighbor, received this in the mail: https://getpebble.com/pebble So we chatted about it for a couple of minutes. Thought I would share it here because I never heard about it before. He purchased for the fitness...

    Apple Pay/Apple Watch

    Was watching Bloomberg and one dude made a comment in Hong Kong you judged by the watch you wear and walking into a meeting with an AAPL watch will really impress. Stephanie Ruhle just about fall out of her chair laughing. She said "you really think that would close the deal, huh?" :laugh:

    Apple Pay/Apple Watch

    All my puts have struck and sold my long position over $5 ago. Technically it broke down @$132.50 on an impulse wave. I will go long again if $119.78 support holds. Just got back from SBUX (drive thru), I asked the girl (probably 19 or 20) that gave my order if she wore a watch, she said she...

    Apple Pay/Apple Watch

    When I went grocery shopping yesterday I counted people that were wearing a watch - 3 out of 31. The 3 were older couples (early to late 70s) and the women was wearing the watch and I don't think they would spend that kind of scratch for an AAPL watch. Went to a Vietnam place for lunch did...

    Apple Pay/Apple Watch

    With the maybe max 18 hour battery life I do not see much use for it as a health monitor. Fitness angle is kind of faddish to me and there is a lot of lower price products for this all ready. I really don't want to be taking something at this price point and leaving it in my locker at the gym...

    Apple Pay/Apple Watch

    It was on 5 different channels at the same time yesterday. Way overhyped. The battery life is horrible, it has to be paired to another device, the knob on the side is a pain in the butt to use. I have a phone, why do I need a watch too? Now they want it to be fashion and not function. It is...

    I hate travel, period. 3 years prior to stop working I was in the highest frequent flyer club on 5 different airlines. June 2005 I counted up my air miles so far that year and I was all ready over 100K. Sydney is a great place to be based out of, but with a traveling job that required a lot...
