Hello frens. Tell me, how often are stock shills right? I doubt they have others best interest in mind. Yet I have seen a few that turned out to be right.

>>13315426
Lolol Doctors are a fraud. He knew there was nothing wrong with you. They teach this in med school.

Where my $CI boys at? I bought 7 calls for $987 @$170 ending 5/3. If $UNH reports decent earnings on 4/16, we'll see a decent bump in the healthcare sector. $CI reports on 5/3. We're at a near low from the last two years. If $UNH and $CI are decent earnings then we've got a moon mission. For you TA fags, we're looking like an inverted h/s. This shit is a gamble, but you don't make solid money without risk.

>>13315463
>They teach this in med school.
>Actually believing this
No. This isn't a medschool thing. This is a hospital policy thing. Just a way to increase revenue because hospital is a private corporation.

So much unnecessary medical screening in this country because they can get insurance to pay for it, which ends up raising the price of insurance so it fucks over the public at large.

Single payer would unironically fix so much inefficiency in the American healthcare system, which is why it will never happen, and why all the medical lobbyists and health organizations will rally against it.

I still can't believe I had to pay that much just to wait around. I thought it would be good for peace of mind at the very least but after waiting and waiting... to then have to pay $150.

ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY?! WHEN I'M DEBATING OVER SETTING LPTX LIMIT BUYS AT 163 OR 162?! WHEN I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE ENOUGH TO BUY MORE THAN 10 SHARES OF DISNEY?!

A little moisturizer before things get that bad have really helped me. Once the skin starts cracking that bad in winter, it takes a lot longer to fix.

I was reading somewhere (Business Insider?) that 2/3 of buys of AAPL were from AAPL itself over the last couple of months, which makes sense because the price is up 30% even though sentiment has barely changed. Sold right after reading that ($199.60), and it's been even or down since.

I don't see why not
A reasonably friendly chinaman could easily be electable.
The traits that (I think) would help them:
friendly
somewhat athletic
America-first attitude (doesn't have to be as constantly talking about it as Trump, but something on their record)

best would obviously be a half asian veteran.
female asian / half-asian would be electable too
you have to look at how unreasonably garbage the current crop of top Dem& Repub leaders are.
Imagine a reasonably young Asian filling the ACO role, but instead of being demanding, out-of-touch, and trying to come out guns blazing, they just smile mostly and do simple things that people approve of. That's all you need.

Andrew Yang is Siegfried Kircheis?

It will be either Trump again or Biden. Thin possibility of that Buttigieg guy

The rest aren't serious contenders as the market and people's retirement would be in jeopardy from candidates that are financially and economically illiterate. When you can ask Bernie and Pocahontas and the rest how they are going to pay for their changes and they appeal to fantasy or don't answer at all then they will be torn apart by Trump. It requires a doomsday mindset to think the batshit insane progressives have any chance. A recession before the election would make their chances even less likely, not more.

>>13318960
You read the new medicare for all act its very specific on what revenues it will raise. Progressive taxes on workers starting at about 30,000 incomes and on businesses starting at like 1 million revenues. It's very similar to employer based insurance plans, except you don't have to worry about loosing it when you change jobs or become unemployed.

We need to get Yang elected period.

>>13318998
A good plurality of Americans are already on government healthcare and a good amount can afford normal healthcare. I'm not sure why people think America's healthcare system is Somalia-tier when the State is already heavily involved.

I think social issues will be at the forefront of everyone's minds this election, even if the politicians trying to get elected want to stay away from the most extreme species of idpol.

people pay too much attention to politics, it's mostly just scam to for newspapers to get viewership. for example president sits only 4 years that is so little time there is only chance for minor minor things to change. it really does not matter who is in charge things will develop at their own weight anyways

>>13319191
>passive politics
This is a Luddite thing to say.

Politics is extremely agenda-based and purposeful. Maybe broader trends can come about organically from smaller happenings, but as a whole, it's very purposeful.

>>13319217
>politics is extremely agenda-based and purposef

disagree the changes are always minor everyone is speaking of and periods in charge so short there is no possibility anything to happen

>>13319242
Scratch that.

You're an idiot and shill.

just n example everyone was orgamis about obamas win, but actually he did not change anything. if anything he did exactly what bush did before him, middle east etc. 100% same politics. all people were scammed for "NEEEWW HOPE!" :D same with trump, nothing changed and changes and people were ORGASSSMIC when we won

>>13319261
no your been bought into politics scam too much, go back to pol. we trade here for our own good, politics will never help your life you have to help yourself :)

>>13319264
I am still origami about letting kids stay on their parents health insurance plans later and insurance companies not being allowed to discriminate based on preexisting conditions.

I think the rest of the country is too, otherwise trump would have successfully repealed it.

The whole checks and balances thing is set up to make sure govt can’t act quickly, because that would threaten muh freedoms.

>tfw hoping my biotechs moon before election season tanks them down for years

Anybody else ktf

>>13319331
I think both of those things are fine things too. My biggest problem with it all was that they punished you for not having health care. I think there's something good there, but people need to stop being afraid of not getting their way - either repeal or full on health insurance for everyone fags need to chill out and stop trying to sabotage the other side at every turn.

>>13318998
I know what it claims to do. Even Bloomberg said it would bankrupt us for a long time. All Trump will have to do is explain the cons that Dems leave out and he crushes them.

>>13319522
> Even Bloomberg
>Even

lol

Anyways, every single cost analysis acknowledges that it costs less compared to what americans are paying now. All Sanders will have to do is ask Trump where America is getting the extra 3 trillion dollars to pay for private health insurance.This is why apples to apples comparisons are important.

>>13319702
Laugh away. When you make fantasy numbers and play pretend that his proposals will pay for it all and get called on it, you get to watch your candidate lose. Look up public sentiment when told taxes raise and waits are longer. And yes, taxes will have to skyrocket for everyone to pay for it.

I mention Bloomberg because he's a relatively sane Democrat.

>>13319746
Bloomberg is a technocratic billionaire who's clinton tier neoliberalism is as inept as it is stupid.

These "fantasy numbers" are all straight out of right wing think tanks that confirm the savings of literally trillions of dollars. Medicare for all will eliminate health insurance premiums, and polling has confirmed people are willing to pay more in taxes so long as they know the rich are paying more.

Realistic golden bull here
We're in for a large wave of volitility soon. Buy calls on VXXB and use your gains to buy food stocks like PEP and GIS.

Good luck not raising taxes or creating longer waits when we already have a doctor shortage. But I'm sure everyone pointing out the fatal flaws is a right wing think tank. You're handing the nomination to the centrist Dems or Trump on a silver platter by being unrealistic.

>>13319935
>Support increased when people were told “Medicare-for-all” would guarantee health insurance as a right (71 percent) and eliminate premiums and reduce out-of-pocket costs (67 percent).

But if they were told that a government-run system could lead to delays in getting care or higher taxes, support plunged to 26 percent and 37 percent, respectively. Support fell to 32 percent if it would threaten the current Medicare program.

>Several independent studies have estimated that government spending on health care would increase dramatically, in the range of about $25 trillion to $35 trillion or more over a 10-year period. But a recent estimate from the Political Economy Research Institute at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst suggests that it could be much lower. With significant cost savings, the government would need to raise about $1.1 trillion from new revenue sources in the first year of the new program.

>Indeed, the poll found that many people are still unaware of some of the basic implications of a national health plan.

For example, most working-age people currently covered by an employer (55 percent) said they would be able to keep their current plan under a government-run system, while 37 percent correctly answered that they would not.
Yep, the people that support it don't even know that it costs them anything. Or that they lose choices.

Candy, Spice, and all things nice. Until they learn how it works and that they do have to pay for it. And then its dead in its infancy and so is the Dem nomination.

automation replacing jobs super speed nao so ofcourse socialism will gain vote, middle class pratcitally vanished in short time. over 90% of all jobs created are part time gig jobs etc. this all good if you keep border controls etc. living standard increasing trendemously with technology and maybe if lucky in 30 years working seen very rare

>>13320305
problem in usa medicare higher cost than other western world is that doctors need insurances against patients, which are super costly. in europe most employers provide private health care insurance, some countries even require employers that, and then public health care might switch and pay you to go private health care provider if lines are too long for public side

Someone should due the math and see if 1000 a week on .1 dollar strangles will inevitably be profitable because of volatility spikes.
I mean SPY would only need to spike 5-7ish pts in either direction from Monday a minimum of 1.2.days the entire trading year for you to break even. Has there ever been a year in the history of the NYSE exchange where that hasn’t happened?

I guess the equation is complicated by implied volatility.

It’d be better if you took every huge price drop in the last 10 years and compared the returns to 500 x whatever option was trading at 0.1 the previous trading day and checked if that were > than 520,000

But you gotta pay a shitload for historical options data that far back

SO. We now that biotech is getting pummeled as a sector, it seems like it’ll be a good time for M&A. AbbVie desperately needs to make an acquisition.

Who are the likely suspects for ABBV to acquire?

Are there any rumors, and meetings, and insider buying that we should be paying attention to?

What do you think ABBV would require from a company to make them a good target for acquisition?

>>13321067
I'm sure that people said that after the dot com bubble burst too.
Biotechs are the definition of a bubble. 50-90% of any given small cap's MC is traders and baggies. Once people don't see the profitability in buying they won't.

>They're only worth as much as somebody thinks they will be

Doesn't that go for everything though? Stocks in general, fiat, heck, even real estate.

>>13321409
Biotech dip or crash. too early to tell

>>13321414
Not really. I mean other companies have assets that can be assigned a dollar value and sold off to cover outstanding shares. Biotech has the potential to be just billions of dollars in overpriced and useless chemical concoctions.

That's why biopharma trading under asset value was relatively unaffected, like REPH or ESPR (actually I'm not entirely sure if ESPR is undervalue, I only did slight DD on that one).

>>13320631

I fucking have to have my fucking check out to the IRS postmarked by fucking Tuesday because entitled unionized fucking assholes need a fucking hand out. Screw you guys, I'm going to Mexico.

>>13321362
Look for a near term rise to the $20s; we got there last December no problem. When shit really hits the fan we are looking at $100+

>>13321493

good riddance

>>13321493
Trading is like a handout in itself.... Making money shouldn't be this easy anyway, and you're participating in the same corrupt system that feeds their greed by doing so

>>13321580
>trading is easy
lmao I've never experienced this much stress in my entire life. Wagecucking restaurant biz 15 hours a day 6 days a week was more fun.
I get like 3 hours of sleep a day during the week because Im watching the Nikkei.

>>13321580
>you're participating in the same corrupt system that feeds their greed
hey I was given this world I didn't make it

>>13321619
Unless you’re trading the Nikkei, what’s the point?

Just wake up 1-2 hours before opening and check out how it did then.

Related: what alerts are helpful? If you could set alerts for news events, chart events, %drops or rises, insider trading, options activity, etc. what would you want to know about (day or night)?

>>13321640
I like looking to see if nikkei lines up with futures. Futures sometimes follows the nikkei really closely if things were slow yesterday or if there's no market news the following day.
I get obsessed trying to plan my strategy around it but by the time opening bell comes I panic and immediately divert from my strategy (which ofc always turns out to be correct). Gotta get outta this rut.
>Related: what alerts are helpful?
Yahoo finance usually does a good job of summarizing market catalysts for the day.
Analyst downgrades are probably the only useful alerts, because you can usually get out 3/4 of the way from the bottom of the selloff, then buy back at bottom. Everything else is too late. That's why I'm staring at charts and tickers for 9 hours a day.

>>13321697
Bruh you need to get a life

>>13321705
Yeah but how? Adults don't make friends easily. And I can't call up my highschool friends after all these years and try to reconnect until I've made my first mill.

>>13321726

Walletmaxxing is a lonely incel cope. You can do things now even if you're poor

It's almost like you have to go out in social situations to meet people instead of sitting in your basement

>>13321742
>Love running and lifting
>Break my toe
I think I'm just going to have to fast and study and be miserable for the next month or so.

Maybe pick up a musical instrument or foreign language. tbhdesu I feel less motivated than ever right now.

For the first time in my life I just want money. This be me:
>>13315426

>>13321726
i woke up at six, lost power at 8, went to a funeral, wiped the ass my own uncle and clean up his literal shit, drank enough alcohol to kill an average human being, still managed to make a crowd of teary eyed people laugh from their heart, and just said you know what fuck this i'm going on vacation... and when I get back I better feel better.

>>13321742
Relax its a joke. I don't want to call up my old friends because I have none.
Also I run 10 miles a day and gave up art years ago because it makes me too competitive. I read a book a week at the least. I'm relatively friendly and sociable, but nothing ever seems to arrive from it.
Besides, I don't want to be too heavy, making friends with someone who has zero other friends can be unnerving. I don't feel like anyone will gain anything from being my friend so I don't want to add a net negative impact to their lives. I add absolutely nothing to society and don't want to burden it any more than it already is, even if that makes me borderline suicidal.

Some times I think of how lucky it must be for those who fucking just overdose and never fucking breath again, but reminded in the eyes of the survivors who fucking have to still exist and get through it because we are the ones who say fuck you, I'll take the curse and be damn sure to see you die first. Call it a fucking curse, the ones who go first don't fucking deal with. Oh yeah and I want to say fuck jannies, niggers and basically anybody who honestly wants to be a democrat or socialist.

>>13321805
When were you diagnosed with an insane lying disorder

>>13321774
>>Break my toe
Dude my toenail died and completely fell off last year and now it grows all weird. Its like 10 times as thick as regular toenail and curves like I'm some kind of velociraptor .

>>13321805
wow, you run 10 miles a day because of your own denial and self coping mechanisms, and haven't figured it out yet? what the fuck do you even do while you're running, fucking just chant left right left and how many steps it has been since you fucking last thought about it?

>>13321833
You gonna get that checked?

>>13321774
fasting doesn't have to be miserable anon. Just have one meal a day and make it your favorite meal.

>>13321823
Running and reading books is not difficult. Evolution made it so that as long as we keep pace we can run indefinitely.
Reading is just a habit. When I was a hikkimori NEET I'd just read for 15 hours and average like a novel a day. Nonfiction is the ideal but I'm only human.

>>13321842
Running/exercise in general is a form of self-hate for me, of course I know this. I started when I was fat as shit and would stare at a clock and count on the treadmill until I reached 1-2 hours.
Pretty cool how you totally nailed my physiological profile.

>>13321846
Fasting is super easy on keto. You don't get hungry at all even though you're fucking starving to death.
OMAD is kinda retarded since the body can only effectively utilize 20-35 grams of protein every 4 hours. 100-120 grams is wasted.

>>13321833
you should kill the new one too if it's that fucked up, maybe the 3rd one will look better than the first two, you'll never know unless you find out. :D <3 <;-)

>>13321742
>>13321853
>>13321873
I used to hate exercise too anon, but after a couple years of heavy workouts I grew to enjoy it. It's all about getting your body to start producing endorphins.

If you're looking to improve yourself, it comes down to learning new skills like writing, drawing, statistical modeling or reading theory.

>>13321888
>You don't get hungry at all even though you're fucking starving to death.
i've seen it, even the biggest whores i've ever been with couldn't effectively use all the protien i produced all in and over them.

>>13320972
yayayaya!

>>13321053
like yeah world so corrupt and we just feeding system kekies
me am mad of hell and no gonna take it ne more >:D !!!!

>>13321904
I don't really hate it, its kinda the only way my brain releases endorphin . I miss it when I was out of shape and would run for 10 minutes and spend the next 10 panting like a dog. I don't breathe heavily doing anything besides HIIT anymore.

>>13320972
you expect me to watch this shit? fuck that im going to watch 10 hours s&m non man on man pornography instead and pretend i watched your nigger dog play nigger ball

>>13321888
Are you LPTXanon?

The whole concept of "protein limit" is based on shakey/bunk science. We can't say that your body just turns it into fat.

>You don't get hungry at all even though you're fucking starving to death
>starving to death
No. You're not "starving"
You're starving when your insulin is high so your body can't access its fat stores and has to break down muscle.

Fasting is deep ketosis, without meme macros.

>>13321917
>RKG has good taste in movies
RKG! Step on my testicles and spend all my money on risky options!
Use my accounts to max out my margin on SPY puts RKG!

>>13321942
how do you fast without burning muscles then? eat fat?

>>13321962
r9k guy doesn't want to put you in pain, he wants to witness some one murder you and then eat your fucking body so he can consume your being

>>13321942
When I did keto I was at like 900 calories a day (well bellow my BMR) while running 5 miles on top of that and not getting any hunger pangs at all. Unless I'm a physicist's wet dream I doubt I was somehow creating energy from nothing.

fuck market's closed on friday because of pass over isn't it... fucking kikes take our checks waste no time to cash them, then hand us a short trading week on top. fuck it here's to fiscal year 2019 frens

>>13321968
I just did this recently. BCAAs and glutamine with every meal.
But all fasting will result in some muscle loss. Thats why body builders bulk and cut over long periods of time.

>>13321986
SPY gets back to back options expirey days though.

>>13321986
>doesn’t know what Good Friday is
Sort of. Because of Jesus’s last Passover before his big t-pose reveal.

>>13322011
you know jesus sounds great, fucking kid's mother gets raped and lies about so get gets the bright idea to hyjack an alcoholic's boat to change the lives of countless fucking clueless followers because he was murdered by people who were tired of his bull shit?

>>13322057
nah, man this jesus guy is all omnipotent and forgiving, he doesn't give a fuck and everybody gets a free pass no matter what they believe say or do. even those bastards ted bundy and adolf hitler get too go to heaven with all of us

>>13322085
You'll pay for that too

>>13322078
Because its at the ath and some bad news could kill it.
A Netflix Disney double strangle earnings play could work good this weak.
Super good netflix ER will hurt disney, super bad ER will tank Netflix and explode disney.

>>13322078
Also are you me? I averaged into a small profit until Trump and Bernie tagteam fucked me.

is it time for movie night yet? I need the link

>>13322068
I did it manually. Downloaded the csv from Schwab and copy+pasted hundreds of values. Took me over five hours, but I saved a few shekels by not using automatic import. The money I saved was NOT WORTH IT, by the way. No way I'm doing it manually next year. Hell no.

>>13322207
You know, my boss said the same thing to me. To paraphrase: "if you find yourself doing the same thing over and over, there's probably a way to do it with some code".

Entering all those dates and costs, making sure I entered the wash sale adjustments, it was all so time consuming.

>>13322068
Wait what?
I just started using RH this year, assuming it'd be as easy to file as schwab makes it.

Fuck that might be the last straw. Do I still have to figure out every transaction for the IRS if I only lost moneys?

The market has been hammering LB lately
I talked to my zoomer sister and her friends and they all still like victoria secret. It may not be as hip as LULU or some AEO, but victoria secret is still important among zoomer girls

>>13322284

>>13322361
HMNY

>>13322361
I fucking KNEW Disney was going to surge, I just thought it would dump first.

I could’ve made a lot more money if I knew how to trade options.

>>13322374
(I also thought it might take another hit after its ER. Wonder if I should place puts...)

>>13322361
>which stock will be the next stock to moon like Disney?
Not mooning, but AAPL is almost guaranteed to start dumping between now and the 25th-26th (probably to 195 range). Buy some puts, maybe short calls (potential to run up until the 18th on Qualcomm news depending on Monday's outcome).
Otherwise keep your money all set to buy 2 strangles at bottom, 1 on May 3rd at a strike 5 away from SP, 1 on May 10th 10 from SP.
There is no way AAPL doesn't pop 5-10 pts in either direction following earnings. Its practically a guarantee. Bad earnings will bring it to the 180s-high 170s, good earnings will shoot it to 210+, excellent earnings will have it trading at the ATH 230s range within a week.
>>13322374
Yeah I definitely shoulda strangled it. I thought the pump would be like 2-5 pts a day, which would've still been profitable w/ a strangle.

>>13322441
This is my range on AAPL earnings. Imagine if I hadn't lost the majority of my portfolio this week.

>>13322507
Actually now that I think about it, buy half of the straddle (call side) at the bottom of pre-earnings dump, start accumulating on the 22nd. But 1/5th every day until green. Day before earnings buy the puts when they're in the red.

>>13322528

We just had a mental breakdown like two days ago, let's stop getting so reckless with options.

Whoever you are, you really like the "strangle". But I have no idea what you're talking about and I think I should start with more basic options.

>>13322615
>Whoever you are, you really like the "strangle"
Strangles and straddles are interchangeable options strategies for when you're sure a price will spike in either direction, straddles have a lower risk lower reward though so they're for boomers and not ballers.

>>13323166
Is strangles at ath a good strategy?

>>13323023
I didn't know that I could do that. I thought I had to fill out the 8949. It never made any sense to me that I had to fill out that form when it was pretty much a copy+paste of the 1099b, but then government forms never came off as "user-friendly" to me.

>>13323197

>>13321619
You're doing it wrong

>>13323175
Depends. If SPY tries to hit the ATH a couple times and gets slapped down each time a strangle or two would be well placed while ViX is low.
There's good chance we sell off a bit around ATH just because of how major December's drop was. Unless something pushes us above it overnight it will get rejected at the least first time

>>13323340
>You're doing it wrong
Yeah I've been tailspinning trying to recover losses on SPY and biotech. Every time I plan in advance I do very well. The unreal amount of money you can make in the first 30 seconds of the trading day if you do everything right keeps tickling my greed bone.

And the good thing about strangles is that even if something pushes it up above the ATH you profit either way.
There's no sense iron-condoring a key resistance.

>>13323225
Wait, are you talking about Exception 2? Can I still skip 8949 if I have a shitload of adjustments in box 1g? The instructions on form 8949 says I can't aggregate the transactions if adjustments are required.

Holy shit fuck this non-itemized deduction shit.

I end up doing so much math just to figure out if I need to be doing that math in the first place. Fuck that.

Next year I should probably just do sales tax based deduction instead of income tax based deductions, and save all my recipts.

Oh SHIT, it’s 4 months into next year and I haven’t collected any receipts?!

>>13323397
You're not aggregating the transactions, you're telling the tax processor to look at your 1099 b to view the transactions.

>>13323397
The question you should be asking is how is doing it via exception 2 mathematically any different from you inputting every transaction into 8949?

>doing taxes on April 14th

Lmao call volume always increasing during a drop. Biotech traders buying call options after a drop is like losing all your money in blackjack so you go and play roulette.

biotechs sold off in response to a specific catalyst event. They've always been in a bubble. Buy options now and you may just get fucked by volatility premiums.

>>13326756
the crypto easy money dream isn't dead, you just won't make a lot buying/selling coins on an exchange unless you get lucky

there are still easy thousands/millions of dollars to be made in crypto if you are OK with scamming people. Or just think of it as 'creative marketing'. If you get some kind of crypto enterprise started now with low cost-of-entry, it could be worth millions if another bubble happens.

do you have a real job (or in school), or are you NEET?
