Sales miss on Netflix. -8%

So NVDA got hit by a double upgrade from HSBC, hence the strength today. Funny thing is, if you dig below the surface, you realize the analyst behind the upgrade has a 14% success rate and -16% avg return on his calls. But hey, fuck it ... AI AI AI mania has set in!

A little morning chuckle:

I also like Mav's take on things, however he does lean a bit too far bearish. Not sure the pay wall is worth it.

Yep, JPM up nicely. Lots of cash inflows during the banking turmoil. Could've swore someone mentioned that here. (No one was taking the cash from the small regional banks and putting it under their mattresses. It had to go somewhere.)

Fuck my life, 5% per day? Surely that's just a joke meme.

This is possibly the dumbest post I’ve seen in a while in this thread. If you think pro traders are out there alt-tabbing, you’re impossibly ignorant. I’ve got 4x 27” monitors and I’ve been itching for another two. I’ve an entire monitor dedicated to macro charts (SPY, TICK, QQQ, US02Y/10Y...

So, Fed / FDIC want to keep stating "banking crisis over, move along" .. then you have stocks like SCHW that are still very broken. It's either the discount of the decade, or someone knows something we don't.

Trimmed some SPY 388 buys here at 409. Took a small few contracts of QQQ 318P next week expiry here at close. Just looking for a pullback scalp. Fun money.

Banking crisis over, right? Morgan Stanley downgrades Schwab (SCHW) yesterday and mentions its vulnerable to bank runs, forced to sell securities at a loss. Chart looks like a red waterfall the last 2 days.

SIVBQ is also up 400% from yesterday's lows. Heh *edit* Christ, its ripped another 30% in the ~40min since posting.

And now its a penny stock in the 50c range.

SIVB shares converted to SIVBQ on the OTC market this morning. Those SIVB shares were trading at $39.5 when the news halt hit, now showing in the <$2 range this morning. Ouch. That's called headline risk while trying to scalp trade a bank that is swirling the bankruptcy drain. All in an instant...

Today's "max pain" $SPY price for options? You guessed it, right here at 395.

For historical reference, the big market drops of 2000 / 2008 (and likely before it) came AFTER the rate cuts from the Fed. Less than a year into the dot-com bubble bursting, on Jan. 3, 2001, the Fed began an easing cycle that would see the federal funds rate move from 6.5% to 1.75% in about...

That 385 SPY level would be massively contested, as it’s basically the line in the sand for the bull case. Even IF we got there, it won’t go without a fight or some new macro news drama. *edit* kid is alright. Sliced his hand open, and since he’s 3, they have to sedate to suture and then the...

Been in the emergency department with my kid most of the afternoon. Any news on the pump and dump, or markets still fighting for direction in a wide range? SPY needs to close below 385 before we risk any real selling.

Technical analysis example. A very clear macro trend line that bounced support for SQ nearly exactly to the penny this morning.

So, Cathie was on a SQ buying spree recently. Between that and COIN getting smoked overnight (SEC after them), she's seeing a lot of red this morning.

25bp Unanimous decision

Theory is, if they went to a flat pause, you're also admitting things are broken. I'd expect a sell on that news.

This isn’t suspect at all:

NVDA currently live in their keynote (that news above). From recent price action, I fully expect a "sell the news" type event. https://www.nvidia.com/gtc/keynote/

My take on it is that history shows, these bank issues rarely just end with the first few names in the news. There will be others likely affected that bubble to the surface. The big takeaway on regional banks is that due to the current mess, you can bet your ass regulations will come hard and...

wrong thread

If you cant make reliable money trading straight equities, the last thing you need to be doing is playing with options strategies. Complete understanding of the underlying is critical before adding half a dozen other complex variables on top of that.

Someone heard Cramer loud and clear (QQQ puts):

No sir. Took that profit some time ago.
