Yes, but unless you use a straddle, guessing the wrong direction can also mean a 100% loss because when a stock tweaks on earnings it tends to tweak hard and remain in it’s new spot a bit(especially on down tweaks).

Can also confirm I flew yesterday and airports were still using it as excuse. I’ve never seen lines that long *inside* security for the help desk. Some people had been there 1-2 days tempers were high

I forgot to update! i closed the Netflix spread at full profit! Almost 22% for 2ish weeks. I’ll post screenshot once I am back at the PC RKLB is still up, but down from the 40% gains to 25%. This is where I struggle with reading strategy and having a “plan”. My “plan” with this particular...

If you are holding that long I don’t think it matters. it matters when you want to absolutely insure long vs. short gains or selling for profit vs loss on selling only some shares during a price rise, etc.

Easy to make fun and time will tell if he holds that rate until end of the year or even year over year, but if he does 70% a year is something I think any of us would be ok with. when I had little money making 15% of 1000$ felt like it almost wasn’t worth the effort but was doable on many...

Great job! Hope to make a similar post one day and if I can I’ll share my strategy

Interesting, thanks for the legit reply. I would absolutely love to see a consolidation post at the end of the year from you. Could be a real motivator for many here.

@Araysar Questions.... I thought I read one of your posts that said you want to make 1% a day. Did I actually read that?(too lazy to scroll through posting history). If so is it 1% of whatever you trade, 1% of some amount you play with, 1% of entire portfolio? Ignoring the long term complexity...

This is the only MMO I actually watch(most) of the cutscenes for. You can just do the MSQ and then use the side quests to go back and level another class later.

That RKLB call is now up 40%......very temping to walk away but it's a January call! I don't want to put a trail on it because the price movement is sporadic and small so unless the trail is huge it is likely to get hit by a less than dollar move on the underlying :( I've made this stupid...

One thing I struggle(d) with is scale. This is not brag mode, but one of the reasons I only make 1-2 trades a week and generally don't keep more than 5 positions active(outside of my 'safety' of FBTC and SPY) is that I have a regular job and cannot dedicate myself full time to trading. Anyway...

Well....DDOG closed extremely fast and indeed produced the roughly 10% gain!

The long on RKLB is already up 6%, considering the expiry I may let this one run a bit. I'll keep people in the loop without trying to turn the thread into a personal blog. If it hits 15%+ I will absolutely put a stop loss on it or sell enough to profit and let the rest run. This is one of those...

I believe they would be taxed as regular old w2 income of Their value on the day you receive them. If you hold the shares and sell a year later you can pay long term capital gains instead of short, but you are on the hook for their value right now when you get them either way. Whatever the...

Which channel or app can I see this?

What program are you using to show the order book/depth of market right on the standard chart like that? Edit: nvm, see the BookMap logo now in the top right, thanks

Fuck dude, spoiler that shit

Im not sure I agree that it outdated, but you do raise a fantastic point about many battles simply do not allow for side/back. Maybe it is like you said where ignores positional attack requirements for those fights. But if you are going to have stuff like that, you can’t gimp it in a significant...

I have some shares as well, 500 @ 3.92$, so I am up 20%+ there, but that's 400$ (only 2k to get the 500 shares) so I am just letting them ride. I did not buy enough shares to ever produce anything great financially. I would sell some risky CC on them but the volatility is extremely low so there...

I said I would post my trades in case people care, I know this board is big on putting money where our mouth is, etc.... Anyway two small plays now: 1.) A long on RKLB: Plan here is to sell far before expiration if I can get a small movement back up. Even a +0.20 move would be more than 10%...

Not saying it doesn’t have dips, but your chart there is over 5-6 days. I don’t play the short term timing game….im just not good at it and I know my skill level And risk tolerance. when it comes to trading I try to look for things about to pivot based on technicals. I’ll post my next trade...

Sadly I already got in and out of NVIDIA and now I’m too afraid to get back in. even with a brand name stock that has good history I get nervous about buying anything on its 52 week high, never mind lifetime high. its possible I miss out on a continued 30% rally, but there are plenty of ways to...

I have zero desire to watch 6 hours of fucking twitch…. i saw it said no background but if i make it my main tab on an iPad or something and just plop it down in my desk that should count, right?

I just got my code. Now to decide if I take a day off or not :o not sure if I mean from work or wife, but I’ll figure that out

I am not as experienced or articulate as our resident god Blazin, but I also have about 50k in SPY puts for near year end. I had posted about I before as part of my scanners which reported extremely high transition on the C:P ratio on SPY. I failed in my post, but I was trying to say I think...

correct, it can be slow depending on gear but mostly just solo the normal ones. If you make a PF group you can sometimes find people that will join, but it is tough. I never did the hard modes for that very reason. there is a lot of content in the game like this, where people don’t know about...

Last Lego game I played was on the Nintendo with the screened control pad thing, forget what it was called. It was like GTA based in a city, and it was really well done. Also played the Star Wars one and it was also true to theme and generally simple fun. I never played the horizon game people...

this is why we can’t have nice things. People who try to sue for stupid shit should be fined the amount they seek

do not buy gear right now. Leveling gear in dawn trail will probably be better or they sell the previous xpac top gear with the easy to get tombstones when new expansion rolls out. There is no reason to buff up right now

haha, early, unannounced earning report(that obviously sucked, it’s GME) and announced 75 million new shares for sale….just enough for anyone shorting to cover. lol cant Have the little dude win. Ohh well, I was hoping to sell my options for double value, still take my 30% though

ohhhh I’m with you. This is a 100% willing to risk meme play. I am not a believer in the cause nor am I gonna diamond hands to stick it the man. I pretty much avoided this crap round 1, but I figured I watched this closer now so I basically bought my options(no way I want shares of GME) at 2$...

yea, but at least publicly, he’s never stated anything of that nature. I dont pay super close attention but I’ve never even heard him make suggestions on what he would do to save GameStop, etc. if so I’d be interested to hear i like gamestop(place not stock) and used to shop there probably like...

This whole GME thing is lol. he is approaching “fuck you” money in the hundreds of millions. I’m guessing whatever he does now is for the fun or because he can? It’s not like Elon where he wants to buy Gamestop and run it his way….

I just check on teamcraft but am a bit confused….provide a few bullet summary?

@Sanrith Descartes I've always appreciate the advice and information you and others put out there, it has helped me grow as a trader! You helped remind me to always look back on a trade(especially bad ones) and try to figure what I did wrong, stupid play from the start, took too much risk...

I was not in it long, it was one of my short term swing trades. Cost is around 17.80, so before the AH shit I was up over a dollar, selling CC at 20 Which was ok premium. I had been doing that(with some variation on the CC strike) for about 3-4 weeks because it was also around 19/20 at one...

I was following this PATH thing a bit(i own about 500 shares). They actually did well on earnings post, but I guess they fired(resigned) the current CEO and removed him from the board…..don’t quote me, just what I read. The first dump of 600k+ shares was at 1600:02. Literally 2 seconds after...

Posting from iPad, sorry about formatting and shit text but attempting to have honest debate. resident experts here, and my own history will tell me that I cannot “out market” the market. Blazin and others talk a lot about sentiment and how even if you think a company is doing great, if...

Nice job, looks like consistency as well and not one lucky trade!

Couldn’t you bang dudes in all of them? I remember Alexios in odyssey getting raped by that strange flamboyant politician dude edit: found him:
