Heck, look at MARA, BTC is at $63k and MARA completely tanked today, its just a wonky day in general
My thoughts as well. Also bought some MARA today during the dip.

So here's my synopsis after today.

Yes, I was really hoping that the presentation would immediately and actually concurrently spark a jump in the price, I think it really just is looking at an excuse to launch. The developments over the past couple of months have been incredible for the company, and with someone who has 100% of his IRA in PLTR shares, I couldn't be more comfortable with where the price is as far as that account goes.

However, as far as the options go, one of the potential opportunities for this to really take off didn't materialize, and even worse, we're about back to square one. I was very fortunate with my entry points yesterday as I purchased prior to the runup, and the stock is about where it was when I did most of my buying so I've lost time but that's about it. In fact I was able to buy into more positions that I had wanted to enter into yesterday that became available with the price declines. I doubled down. For those that purchased options at higher prices, your equation is different. This is why entry point on options is the most critical thing IMO.

So many options expire worthless it's ridiculous. That is why it is essential that IMO you pick options that have incredible return potential. The $26 options at $0.40 is crazy, but at $0.10? Sure. When they expire worthless they're worth the same amount, $0, but when they hit the $0.10 pays out 4x (obviously).

I think there is a very good chance a few things could happen. The people in the industries targeted today have a positive response, we have some good news tomorrow, good articles, and hopefully volatility. Let's not forget this stock was over $26 earlier today, which would make me a small fortune for the $25 calls if bought at the right prices. My $25 calls nearly triple at $26. We've had multiple, multiple dollar days, even if we just rely on Lady Luck (which it's never awful to consider her when running statistics) there's a decent chance we walk out of this LAMBO DEEP.

I also think coinbase was just such a distraction overall that the waters were very muddy. Suffocation of anything else market related.

Best of Luck!

If you're down big, I'd hold.

In retrospect, I would have chosen the May monthlies and ate the premium, but given myself two shots at a moon launch, earnings and demo day. I'll need to take a look at the cost to roll tomorrow, and I know it would be significant, but if we don't see great news early, I might make an adjustment.

Biggest thing now!! Look to see if analysts raise outlook or price targets after presentation, it's a serious possibility. They may have been holding off to make DoD adjustments until after this presentation.

Um... let's put it like this, I'm holding 50 $26 contracts and it's cost me $150 thus far.

Those contracts cost a total of $650 to buy. If it goes to $28.50 that's what $12k+?

$650 is a nice hotel room for a night. I'll manage. lol.

People out there buying apple headphones for damn near $600 that they'll break, and they're sweating rolling the dice a little.

if you've been holding it since IPO days as ive just been told then fair play you must be up tens of thousasnds so you can take the gamble

with that said I tend not to buy options, i'd rather sell them where the odds are in my favour regardless of the potential reward

Hey, after today, I'd smash the May monthly $25's if it was me. Or if you're looking to yolo, the $25 4/16's still.

4/16 $25 is below $0.20. $26 is very possible and a 4X.

If we see 4/16 $25 calls below $0.10 tomorrow I might do something ignorant.

Lmao. So glad I have a small pltr position that I perceive as a roulette allocation.

It's a life hold.

Is that a screenshot of RobinHood’s platform?

Do they actually only use “Gain” verbiage? “Day’s Gain” and “Total Gain”, like they can’t even use Gain/Loss because that wouldn’t feed into their 4D psychology chess insinuating you can only make gains?

Don’t trust a company that does this chit

Apparently it's a hard concept to grasp... why hold long term and gain wealth when you can YOLO daily options and lose few hundred bucks every month & tell your friends that you're 'day tradin'...

its shares. he will be fine.

COIN isn't going below $250 way too many whales got in unless all coins crash and burn. there was huge block trades worth many billions that traded today.

ARK bought 750K shares of COIN today. thats what like 180+ million buy.


btw without question these ipo always turn to dog shiit for us since it always doubles before everyone gets a go...we have no idea what coin settles in 6 months time.

at worst that guy will have to diamond hand it and average it down.

Way to be a raging ******* and find a 10+ year old picture of a guy who was a life long fatass for 26 years, didnt lift a weigh or do cardio, then lost 80 pounds, became skinny fat, then started lifting, and now....see avi.

You are officially confirmed a literal piece of ****.

Maybe the guy i quoted should listen to someone with a close to 7 figure net worth who did it all on his own.

Or he could listen to some jackass with mental issues who cant make a post without insulting people or demeaning them.

he did the same stunt for earnings where PLTR tanked to shiit.


this is reason this forum is turning into complete shiit.


if you need to tell others to follow you into option trade you don't know jack shiit about market.

LCBOLEO openly talks about how he frauds the government by taking CERB while working. No offence to him but I wouldn’t take his advice, kid seems to run on a emotion/gambling mindset.
First off, who the fuk are you? Secondly, I have never gave out advice on this thread, I leave that to the more experienced posters, I just come in and post my ballsy moves every once in a while. Idk why your trying to make me look some type of way when my posts are pretty harmless.

But yeah dude just letting it ride with money he doesn't particularly care about so obviously take that into account when you see him post unusual positions.

EDIT: fuk mayne I wanna gamble and buy $24c for PLTR for 4/16 @$0.55. Cottdam it is 100% gambling though and my account is low on cash as it is....
This, on spread.

Yeah I'll look into it, getting my direct deposit sometime midnight and going ballsy on $25 4/16 and some May monthlies.

And to that carbon dude, I was going to do this regardless btw.

PLTR leaps seem super cheap. $13.65 for Jan 2023 $12 leaps. How is this not the play for leaps?
