Sell puts my man. 135 IV right now and it'll go down quickly. I'm going to wait until end of day and sell some $40 strike puts for November for $6ish if they are still going for that.


EDIT: I've got the only offer out there for the Nov $35.0P for $4.20. You are welcome.

For whoever followed me on the $440 8/9 Spy puts 2 days ago I did sell them yesterday at $2.35 or something like that. Thanks Will for the shoutout on those. Honestly I might re-enter with further out strike.

PENN bought SCR for $2billion. SCR up 75%. Looks like $34 is the merger price.

Selling puts is pretty straightforward. Using what you quoted from me, at worst I am obligated to buy 100 shares of Hood at $35 in November and I'm paid $420 for that privilege. Realistically my cost basis would be $3,080 so it is like buying at $30.80 if that is what it comes to. Ty based high IV

Gap has been printing 5 figs for me this week. Literally just rotating between buys and calls everyday. Bought at market close yesterday sold for 300% today. Didn’t take the put the other day and they were up 800% yesterday. This thing just trades of the 5 min RSI.

Robinhood $HOOD to sell 97,9 million shares from early investors (the same bloated billionaire VC funds that get in at dirt cheap prices). I said on my show be careful not to be long when lockup ends and firms begin ratings.
Be nimble if you are a trader.
He’s a CEO. He’s done more bullish things than what some could consider bearish. But I get why people would be upset with him. The squeeze wasn’t going to happen then regardless, shares got ate up quick. Big picture it’s close to the same situation we were in a month ago, now with the addition of the sec taking notice. This will take time imo. Like the Tesla squeeze.

I’ve been up a pretty crazy amount also lol. So I feel your brothers pain but he sounds like he’s convicted in the trade. I don’t feel I’m leaving any money on the table. Huehuehue


I’ll go back to my amc cave now.




The hood puts are burring!

I never understood how people were convicted or believed in those meme stocks trades. GME/AMC were essentially ready for chapter 11, AMC even moreso.

Good on those guys that took a risk and it paid out. But to make the trade thinking they're the next FANG or revolutionary company I just don't get that logic.

Robinhood suspended trading on their own stock when it was dropping.

You can’t make this chit up.

The meme hysteria worked out great for them, corporate equivalent of winning the lottery. I didn't have the sack to play those positions but grats to those who made big dick gainz.

Have their business fundamentals really changed though? Sure they were able to shore up their balance sheets but the success of their transformations for the future is still unknown.

Realifealpha poorfolio taking a hot today. FVRR down 26%. At the bottom of the daily chart. Probably get some calls in the next day or two on it. Options also opened up on COOK. Maybe wait for a pullback then pick some of those up.

It’s not and hasn’t been a fundamental play. If they(AMC/GME) end up being successful and pivoting that’s great. However, I’m in it for the potential gain and the bonus is the shedding of light on PFOF, market manipulation, and duopolies running the markets. And it may seem crazy but it’s sort of my hedge against a possible upcoming correction. AMC will only benefit from a market correction imo(unless blackrock or vanguard sell but they’re making a killing lending out i’m sure).

maybe I'm a boomer, but the idea of a company that isn't able to grow earnings and return value to shareholders (GME, AMC) and whose only value is propped up by speculation doesn't seem like a good long-term investment... there's just no underlying money (fundamentals) holding things up. Even if it isn't a fundamental play, just seems bizarre, like there is no inherent value

You just described investing from a fundamental analysis.

And yes it is bizarre, I’m not denying that. It’s bizarre along with the rest of the market right now.

just LOL.

Yesterday one of these AMCcel's asked me IRL if I had any shares... I say no. He says "oh, you don't believe in the squeeze?!"

these people don't even know what they're participating in lmao. Very fitting for clown world tbh.

Stay within the realms of your game plan, constantly witness a bunch of money you *could* have made.

Step out of your game plan one time, and get giga-rekt. If SPY ends up leg-upping at the end of today and into tomorrow... FUKKKKKK i'm not even going to log in to my broker.

Damn. Webull just gave me 35 free stocks. They counted my share transfer from another broker as a deposit promotion. Was a nice surprise!


All $10 stocks though lol.

That was my plan, but after it unexpectedly squeezing some the puts were too tempting. Worked out, it’s down almost 20%. Pump and dump.
