[quote]I’m not rich but I’ve made enough money in the past 2 weeks to do so much. I tapped out most of my GME now after the second breaker. I’ll likely buy some more calls next week to see if the market will actually allow it to squeeze farther[/quote] [i]Daaaang[/i]. Talk about making a major sc...

You’re rolling strike after strike on GME. You made a GREAT call on this one. Nice. :cheers:...

Talk about intraday volatility! With the 173% IV, 34% IV rank and crazy premiums, I was drawn to play GME on the short put options side (expiring tomorrow). Are any of you attempting to swing, or even day trade this ticker, or day trade the options (long or short)?...

[quote]Britain’s IG Group Holdings Plc agreed to buy Chicago-based online brokerage Tastytrade Inc. for $1 billion, predicting retail stock traders in the U.S. are about to embrace derivatives.

After a dip at the open, the news was absorbed and it’s stable again. I have some short 22 puts that expire tomorrow. But I’m comfortable taking it at that strike, so I’m good either way - just didn’t want to see it nosedive....

Prayers sent your way. I hope that all goes well. ...

[quote]I’m not selling my shares but sold some weekly calls I bought Friday afternoon for a nice profit[/quote] I don't understand the downvotes. :confused: You went double bullish (long shares [b]and[/b] long calls). You sold out of the calls for a profit and remained long shares. Your trades...

[quote]There is a measure called “Beta” that basically indicates how much a stock moves in relation to the market as a whole.[/quote] Great post. For those who use portfolio margin in their trading activities, beta, especially as it relates to position and sector cross-correlation, is an EX...

Well, looks like we agree again. :cheers: I don't say this out of a desire for Schadenfreude, but at some point, all major (especially near parabolic) market moves revert to the mean. Sometimes they ease back, sometimes it's more violent. And few ever expect it or accurately predict the timimg. ...

Very thoughtful answer, which I agree with. Much appreciated. :cheers:...

Great update. Thanks. :cheers:...

[quote]No such thing with an HSA. If there's a better tax shelter our there, I'd love to hear it.[/quote] Exactly. The HSA is certainly at or near the top of the list when it comes to tax advantaged investing. It sounds like he now has enough excess funds to invest. If he doesn’t have or like...

A good mix of D’s and F’s for the most part. :lol:...

[quote]I saw this late and got in at $8.88/sh. I then sold covered calls at $15/sh at a 6% yield that expire in two weeks. If these get called away I'd be thrilled. Thanks OP.[/quote] :cheers:...

[quote]This is a long term, buy it and forget about it type play.[/quote] I still loosely follow BB and used to trade the equities and options pretty frequently. Just based on my limited reading recently, I agree with your take. Just looked at the implied vol. and it looks just healthy enough...

[quote]$1,000,017.45 :nana:[/quote] I don’t know you personally and it’s unlikely that we’ll ever meet (unless you happen to frequent road course race tracks on sports car weekends :cheers:), but after seeing that and reading your history, I wanted to say that I’m sincerely happy for you with ...

[quote]I prefer to short the stock and buy in the money calls. This scenario gives you plenty of profit potential if the stock drops over $2.00 and limits your risk in case the price rises. [/quote] Just asking, since I don’t know the goals of your strategy, but have you considered buying straddl...

I trade AAPL (usually with options) in my trading account from time to time. But I’ve held my investment position steady for about 20 years. Until I see some fundamental change in the company’s financial prospects, or it becomes too large a percentage of my investment portfolio (which yeah, it prett...
