Nope, can't buy and AMZN call when the entire market is practically in a downtrend. AS for that solar stock, its quite a different story just like most oil stocks, although crude oil is down, so that's also helping in pushing the market lower.

I did add 10 contracts of FDX Jan. 85 puts at $1.65 for $1,665. I paid about $200 more than I would have because of the extra research I had to do on FDX this morning. By the time I entered, FDX was starting to break the $86 level. One more reason I bought this put was to hedge against the solar stock calls. Just hope I can come out with a break even at the end of the day. I'll post my reasons for both trades after the market closes.
