Goodbye Apple ...

I have exited Apple after holding on to the stock for a few years (before Covid). Some of my reasons: Lacking innovation. While Apple offers great products, the quality of its competition is catching up. Seeing the good gross margins, I am not sure I am willing to pay such a premium to leave the Android ecosystem. The above news article mentioned that Apple Car could still be in reality in a few years. The above is an aged news article from 2022 that spoke about the team issue managing Apple Car. Lost the core team for Apple Car. We are waiting for the official word from Apple on this matter.

Price action (4 Feb 2024) - Fib 61.8 pullback 180 was a strong bounce - Could it be a big dead cat bounce to form the right shoulder for Head and Shoulder and then break down below 180 to 165 (range play) - As they say, it is only a confirmed pattern until the neckline break, so for now, the recovery seems on. Got to see how AAPL moves next week.  - A 180 hold and breakout is still quite bullish My plays - Selling puts still for now AAPL Daily - 4 Feb 2024 @melson  @CaptainTiger  @TigerStars  @macroB

The Apple Dominion

$Apple(AAPL)$ , like all fruit, are born to serve two purposes.To spread the apple species and to feed birds, worms and humans.The life of the apple is interesting to watch. It began as a tiny seed in the fields of NASDAQ in 1980, weighing at $0.39 (or grams).Now the apple has grown to be almost 800 grams. That is record heavy for an apple.(There have been several stock splits that lowered the price of each apple)The miracle of nature is, that a tiny cell can multiply thousands upon thousands of times. In this case, our apple fruit has grown almost 2000x since its birth.We have fed off of apples for a long long time.The consumption of apples (measured in pieces) reached its peak in 2010.Most who needed to eat a single app

I, for one am not one, yet I love to trade AAPL for the simple reason that it iswell- loved worldwide especially iys Iphones, which never fail to enchant its followers. Buying AAPL on the dips is a no brainer indeed.  When iy was abelow 175 months ago, I picked up some shares, waited patiently and sold off when it hit 180ish. When it hit 190, again I buy back on the dips at 180ish and made good profits letting them go at 190ish. Now yet again AAPL hit a low of 187 after hours and buying on the dips, hold for the stock to break 200 at  its earnings call tomorrow would likely pay off. Lets be patient and
