I have these two trades set to expire on April 19th:

March 5th

March 11th

The Apple (AAPL) Trade

The Apple trade is not looking good. Apple closed down today at $168.84. And all indicators point to a deeper decline in the immediate future.

A look at a recent 5-day chart shows a resistance level at $168.57. Tomorrow morning I will watch for signs of that holding.

The Nvidia (NVDA) Trade

The Nvidia trade is looking good. Nvidia closed today at $894.52. Generally on track to be above $875 at expiration on April 19th. The stock hit a $877.70 resistance level today and moved up. That said, Nvidia has wide price swings. I will be watching for exit points.
