AMD - QUICK UPDATE - AVOID OPTIONS, THETA BOUND TIL FEB 12?
0. Don't have a lot of time to explain right now;
1. If you own AMD, sell the $90 Strike for Feb 12th against your shares; don't go out beyond this;
2. This stock is going to be range-bound until we work away the short-term options betting from the "retail" crowd;
3. Would not be surprised to see a very tight trading range until tomorrow the 5th, as we have a boat load of options that "need" to expire out of the money a.k.a. $90 Strike;
4. Feb 12th, we should also stay range bound next week. Stay tuned; We also have option interest that is questionable for the Feb 12th $90 Strike, and other stuff;
5. Great opportunity for REAL AMD Shareholders to make some money off all the day-trading and WSB money;
6. They will THETA out all the options (basically take your money), by flattening out volatility, less attractive to quick-buckers, less moves, but same options pricing, no incentive, and keeping it range bound;
7. AMD shareholders should be a solid $87.50 base, and a slow consolidation to $100. It could happen quickly, once there are no "wsb options" hanging around, and it can move without anybody profiting; except Shareholders;
8. Also, XLNX deal is jeopardized due to shenanigans, WSB, and AMD did make the RobinHood restricted list for like 4 hours last weekend;
9. Professionals have been brought in to correct this "Market Inefficiency";
0. AMD is a strong buy around the $87.50 mark.
1. You need to be patient with AMD here, they need to fix the manipulation that took place, slowly

UPDATE
So watch the stock if you wish over the next few days, and hope a nice Trading Range develops here.
This could be great for long term holders.
Lest a Market Correction come our way first.
So far $87.05 to $87.95 looks like a promising range til close tomorrow.

UPDATE - Turn the Wall Street Bets People Into Bag Holders / HOW TO
1. Buy AMD Shares in the $87.05 to $87.95 range;
2. Hold your shares for 5 years plus;
3. I don't have to explain the fundamentals. We have over 100 posts on AMD with commentary and fundaments, news, earnings, and so forth;
4. Sell CALLS against your stock;
5. COVERED CALL WRITING RIGHT NOW AT THIS PRICE IS GOLDEN;
6. So the WSB people will buy calls, they are only really good at doing that;
7. They always buy OTM (Out of the Money), as they want quick profits. Buy $90 strike for tomorrow for $.10 and if it runs to $92, you kill it. This is ending. So for now we stay "range bound" and you can keep the stock, and all the "retail WSB people's money" as all the OTM calls will be expiring out the money for a while here.
Power to the Investors. Not the Pumpers :)

So I would think that if today and tomorrow stays quite range bound, it looks like AMD has hired the top gun to protect the real investors. There was a story on CNBC a few days ago, about firms hiring "top traders" and using "major institutional money" to "fix market inefficiencies, identify issues, and stabilize equity prices."

Update

Market Closed
AMD / FLAT
Ladies and Gentlemen, children of all ages, this is the greatest "manipulation" in history. LOL. Wall Street invented the game. Now is the time for "tight trading ranges" on "important stocks" that have been messed with by WSBs people.
This gives US, the opportunity to pick those name, find support, buy the stock, and then sell against it.
There Options Money, goes to zero, as the stock doesn't move much, stays in a tight range, and this SQUEEZES OUT THE SPECULATORS.
Stay Tuned.

We OWN a lot of AMD stock for our investors. We are selling calls ALL DAY LONG against what we own.
Wall Street has been informing institutions to do the same this.
Then read about THETA. This is TIME DECAY. If you buy the AMD Feb 12 $90 CALL for $2.00 and the stock stays where it is now? To the Moon? Tendie Town? Champagne. NO. I take your options money and put it in my account. When the Options table clears out a bit, we will remove the COVER, and let AMD fly to $100.

Question

"so when do you think that we step out of this range? "
Answer:
Well, it is clear from such an up day in the general Market, and the SMH (Semiconductor ETF +1.16%), no news on AMD, and massive amounts of the $88 Strike Feb 5 Call, with an Open Interest (People still have them). This means that the range we saw today, which was quite sad and predicted by us, shows that the professionals have been brought in.
The real key here will be if the people that hold those options start to sell as they decay (lose value), to zero. We would not be surprised to see at close tomorrow at or near $88. Remember Options close at 8pm. So it can close at $87.50, move to $88.01 by 8PM, and all the people from Wall Street Bets whom hold all those options will be forced to close their worthless positions, or possibly get exercised if they have cash and margin. AMD is 30% long and short on the Margin, even for those at RobinHood, so they could easily end up with stock or "fractions of shares".
So ESPECIALLY if the market closes down tomorrow, in the Tech Sector, and especially in the SMH (Semiconductor tracking ETF - Basket of Great Names), that should tell you the stock is being manipulated to "work off" the lame bets in the options table.
Also, ANY spike on AMD will be sold immediately like today, and ANY push even briefly below $87.50 will be bought. If this condition continues, regardless of other Market Index Action, that would indicate a tight range to ALSO reduce the Volatility on this stock. That will make it less of a target for Speculators. Less "Options Swing Money". We have recorded the volatility on ALL AMD options as of close, and will compare to the open and the next few days.
If we see this stock close close to $88 tomorrow, and GAP just above after close, to make the $88 strike, we will wait for Monday to make a decision. They could easily tank the stock on Monday, and force the RH people to liquidate against the bought on Friday position, against a lower manipulated opening price, then they would ALL GET HOSED.
Let us see. Right now we are quite content with a trading range.
$87.25 to $88.25 for a week would not make us unhappy. Especially if the stock holds or slowly appreciates next week. That would be the ideal situation.
Maybe a launch after that, or maybe the end of the sudden jerky, daily moves.
Let us see.
Cheers

UPDATE - 10:00 EST Feb 5 2021
We are watching the options table right now. The Feb 5th $88 Call is being dumped by the "Wall Street Bets Crowd". The open interest is being sold. This is placing pressure on AMD.
Another possibility too, is we are about to have a Market Correction shortly.
Stay tuned...

But looking at QQQ / UVXY / AMD / DIA / SMH / NVDA, GLD, SLV, doesn't look like a correction. Just MM's holding AMD down until expiration today.

UPDATE
10:32AM
Also, we have the SMH at -0.80% and Fund Flows will also work against us today. So we have the Feb 5 $88 PUT that expires today, and the SMH flows, and any other funds that are DOWN today, and hold AMD. Pressure will abate at some point, just not today I don't think.
