If you are long Ftek. You made money today. Unfortunately, I have a couple puts on it. It seems to be setting up as a solid long. Other then the fact they offered an awful quarterly report to shareholders and lowered guidance it’s a fine pick.
My only hope is [...]

I doubled down on the optionn this morning. I bought an FTEK 25 aug .60 put. So I have two with an average price of .75 . This is most likely the end of the game. I will follow the “no look policy”. OK, maybe a peek at noon.

I’m headed out. Ftek seems to have leveled off. I’m sitting at about 1.35. I need $1.40 for profit. It has been as high has $1.60. I have a $1.05 stop. (should get .95-1.05 if it goes there). Down seems to be the trend.
midday still at par. I’ll [...]
