You bought the news. Elon selling shares was priced in already, everyone knows it. As soon as the media starts reporting it, it’s too late.

Tesla was both the #1 retail investor stock and the #1 hedge fund shorted stock, at the same time, should tell you something.

>>52884013
just assumed because the PnL looks like 0DTEs going straight to zero, and you said you lost the money on puts you bought today which now appear worthless.

> I cut my winners early and hold my losers. I don't fucking get my logic
there is no logic. You are shooting from the hip, otherwise you would have predefined points of exit for profit and loss and you wouldn't be left wondering why your losses are bigger than your wins. All of that should be figured out ahead of time. Options make it a lot more complicated esp with shorter expiry. Personally if I'm long options I want 9 months or longer, to hold for 1-2 months. Gives a big time buffer as the greeks wont change much in that short of a period vs 9 months, and can roll later if needed.

you don't. The money is gone. A trade's a trade. Accept it and move on.

"making my money back" is a sure way to blow up the entire account. Trading with a sense of desperation makes you an easy target for more patient, experienced, less emotional traders. Take a break until you are confident you can trade without a sense of urgency. Patience is required for success.
