CSX - Good bounce this morning but keep your eye on it.

That is the screen shot from this morning on CSX. As I had hoped it has bounced off the support level with heavy volume and a big gain. Looks like we may have found the bottom for now.

I'm still keeping my eye on it though, CSX may just be benefiting from a up market this morning.

CSX - Keep Your Eye on It!

 

So I've been losing my shirt on CSX. After a recent dip I thought the company was ready for a rally. Thus far I've been wrong. Thankfully my position is relatively small compared to my major holdings, SPLS in particular. BUT, today is an important day and this week is going to be a big one for the performance of CSX. I've ridden this one down to its support level right here at $20. 

 

With a double bottom forming here at $20 we are going to see some action off of this price. If it falls below there are no support levels forming for about another 10% below $20. I am still holding my breath for a bounce off of the support level which is why I haven't sold yet. But I will be watching it very closely for the next few days. A day or two below $20 and it will be time to cut and run as it may run all the way down. 

Important note about trading options. Notice that I am experiencing a 50% decline on a 10% decline on stock price. If you are going to be trading options you have to be able to take the swings and you must diversify. The only good news is that a week or two in the other direction and 10% can double the options price. For me and the $1000 I'm starting with the risk is worth while, and thus far it has been profitable.
