So Jony Ive’s successor at Apple is a spreadsheet guy? Steve is turning in his grave…
Panda rained on my parade. So I have to update my count for AAPL…
and added my uber bullish count on his chart…
Panda is going to get destroyed.
I did a call replacement for AAPL sold 
I have the same feelings as you that Apr earnings might be peak AAPL… did a call replacement… a hedging strategy. If AAPL dives a lot, I lose a lot less, if rockets, I continue to ride.

You are a true Wallstreetboy now…
I bought about 300 contract of AAPL May 140 call a few days ago. Looks pretty bullish to me especially after today.

Well, I usually go by the feel and other factors, but generally stick with $5k-15k or $25k-50k if more confident with options. I also had a huge run in Jan+Feb (100%+ gain in trading account), a relatively minor March drawdown, and up nicely on FNGU/UPRO last one week to take on additional gambles. I’ll revert to mean sooner or later if I keep playing fire with high risk gambles like this though but that’s just my way.

I am more aggressive than what I have posted yesterday. I am betting that Panda is wrong about AAPL … don’t think he understands AAPL… TA/EWT/FA is not good enough, need to know AAPL historically… I follow since late SJ returned in 1997, history rhymes. $4k invested, more than double in just 1-2 days. Anyway, peanuts… still dare not bet $50k to $500k 
for such trades.

You think you are aggressive, but tiny compared to market. See just today close how many AAPL calls interest !
Added my count on Panda’s chart. Unless proven otherwise, I insist AAPL should peak at $172.
For multi-month, looking at weekly chart is pretty clear is still in multi-month uptrend and there will be a new ATH higher than $145. His count looks weird on the weekly chart… didn’t reflect Panda count on weekly chart.

Was expecting Apple to buy NUAN. Apple is stingy! Let MSFT acquired Bungie in 2000 (spinoff in 2007). Now NUAN?
