When is a good sign to do weeklies? It’s almost below $21 I believe it hasn’t hit this low since last year. Might toss like $100 bucks on weeklies one last time.

What are your thoughts on monthlies or Jan 2023 calls?
PLTR shares best play.

Covered calls requires 100 shares.

Leaps close to ITM 2023 are also good when its getting beat down, sit and wait on this for few days.

If it dips below $20 than leaps would be attractive.


Earnings PLTR next Tuesday BMO.

Implied move +/- 11 percent.

Last earnings they dropped 12 percent.

So two ways to play it.

1. If they dump after earnings buy shares and leaps as far out possible.

2. If there is rumor that was posted few week ago that they might actually report profit you could buy weekly call that might run on those news till market close Monday.

That would be very risky and don't consider it till this Friday to buy May 14th expiry.

I wouldn't do this move until there is direction how rest of this week plays out. Maybe this is one day sell off maybe not.

PENN seems like maybe a BTFD opportunity. But I've been wrong before. With earnings in a couple days, that could either turn out really good or really bad to jump in. As a long term hold, seems like that stonk should grow quite a bit.

As much as I am a gambling site shill, there's SO MANY sites.... Online gambling isn't a new thing to be cracked. I was playing pokerstars in '07, and it worked almost flawlessly.

Market leaders will be the driving force, draftkings seems like the most visible player in the game as of today.

You are correct. But it's about where things are going in my mind. I see how many states they are *not* in and where they plan to go very soon, and think it's a good upvector play.

Draft kings yes, but they spend metric fukk tons of $$.

On eth you are correct. Momentum is behind it and the players are waiting for eth 2.0.

And people do realize crypto is generally being controlled by an organized group of devil lettuce dealers right?

Also, small bet on $22 may 14th calls @ $.80 (PLTR)

I’ll travel this path alone.

But if anyone believes my long term sentiment (not the WSB and Reddit pump bs, not the recent price fluctuations, or my rogue ass calls, but the actual company) then how is this not a dream come true??? The stock could possibly spike on certain news at any point, which is fine and people generally shouldn’t gamble on it, but to get this kind of discount before an early earnings? Cmon man, people should be celebrating and averaging in at these prices on modest margin. Simple.

Glad I was holding some cash and slowly averaging in, down almost 4% overall which is the most red I've had this year, holding the line bout to start buying more.

AAPL wouldn't surprise me if it gets down to 120ish

PLTR seems to always hold on around 20ish

Don't panic boyo, time to average in more on the dip

If you are buying PLTR for long haul difference buying between $18-22 isn't going to be much. Since upside is massive if they can deliver on all those contracts they keep picking up.

Nobody has idea what happens if tapering happens sooner than expected and rates go up.

trouble is im not high conviction enough on pltr to buy more of it. i feel it could be a decent play but i already have 300 shares.. dont want to make it any more of my portfolio than it already is

and for apple, like you said, it could well fall further. 127 is too high to average in imo

Maybe 119-120 again.



Riding it out right now with Palantir. If it goes below $20 then I will consider buying some depending what it's looking like.

so tempting to sell apple now so at least i can lock in some profits rather than wait it out and see those green numbers get smaller

you never really know where the bottom is
