Waiting for it to drop a lil more and I'll be getting in again. Would feel more comfortable if it pulls back below 230. It correlates with btc and other crypto prices so I'd say its a safe bet. Btc most definitely will break through its ATH again and when that happens COIN will be going over $300
yeah COIN would be a 1+ year hold only for me. technically, the chart does look kind of chit tbh.

/NG looks interesting for a short into the 5.50's, but wouldn't recommend trading that product. Maybe UNG as a proxy or something.

Most of the stories I heard of somebody big blowing up usually involves them doing some retarded option chit in Natty Gas Futures and getting rekt.
lmao. I will be a VERY happy camper if oil just holds $65-70 through winter. Realistically if oil goes too much higher everyone and their mother are going to be putting up rigs and pushing inventories through the roof. Refiners right now have to be thrilled with current pricing. It seems like the gap between crude and gasoline is huge so margins gotta be pretty fat.

I heard if you work/invest from home Biden requested trading platforms add a 3% fee on total account value yearly so they can redistribute more money to workers on the front line who can't work/invest from home.

Wouldn't make sense to do so since you wouldn't be "endangering" anybody though

I do see it a slight possibility that you're forced to get vaccinated or excluded from society by having all your assets frozen (trading platforms, bank/cards, utilities cut, etc.)

I'd shoot for making it a swing trade instead of a long term hold. Crypto is so volatile and like previously mentioned COIN price follows crypto prices. If you end up buying soon and you get into double digit percentage gains I'd say start averaging out at the very least. Then when it drops again rinse, repeat.

I will take the opposite of that bet. Rig counts and inventory will surprise to the downside. We're heading to a energy crisis this winter.

Lmfao how do you figure?

Oil in particular doesn't really play a big role in heating at least in the US as far as I am aware? Natty gas is abundant with fracking too so I am unsure where the crisis is coming from... Europe maybe?

If prices go too high Saudis and co will just unleash more supply.

Oil producers are much more conservative now. The mantra isn't "Drill Baby Drill" anymore. It's pay down your debts and return value to your shareholders. ESG is another idiotic layer of bureaucracy that starves energy of capital. Sure, it all comes down to OPEC at the end of the day but gas shortages are coming this winter.

Long coal. Long Oil. Long Natty. Long Uranium.

Back in 2008, the incorrect assumption was peak supply in Oil.

The false assumption for the next decade is peak demand in Oil.

Coal demand is only going to be found in China/India. Everyone else has switched plants to natty gas. No one will swap back to coal because of costs associated with government requirements. Either way I don't think we have a problem with natty gas other than perhaps our crumbling electric infrastructure not able to keep power on. Gas supplies will be fine unless something big kicks off in the middle east.

BBIG have another run left?

Uranium looks like it's going to go up again today


Ater opening down, will be an interesting/telling day for it



What's up with the call volume on MO? They have a dividend payout coming soon or something?


Also SPRT SI up to 96%, worth keeping an eye on as it merges today

memes that were looking for a gamma squeeze that require lots of OI are a double edged sword right now. As people close short dated options and the risk of things being ITM goes down they end up dropping really hard around expirations and as we all know 9/17 is a pretty big one.

BBIG doubt it.

they are now just playing retail like flute

CCJ also being sold off it should stop at $23 otherwise its gone. never good sign that it was trending on wsb.

I will check those other 2 don't have time atm.

Imo SPRT got covered once what you mean merge?


remember all the options on these so called 'squeeze' stocks is gonna be lifted this Friday. 9/17 al that OI is going to zero OTM.



good old fake out on SPY.

this is why its better to do nothing till its more clear where this is going.


if apple event is shiit and it sells off

spy is gonna take hit

Thanks to this absurd market, I'm sitting on roughly a decade of living expenses (and $0.00 debt) in my portfolio. When does this end? Seriously.

Its simple.

No need to trade every day/week.

I rather wait and see where this month lands.

Seems pretty obvious market dip will be bought but atm no clue if its there yet.

If going with trend 50 MA on SPY is $442 should be where it will turn or tank. Area to watch if we get there.



One more thing.
