I hate reddit niggers and their pussy ass index fund filled portfolios

This thread was really early

>>52996217
It's not that complicated, as long as you don't do anything stupid you wont have to end up being one those guys who killed themselves after going into the negative.

>>52996225
does it make you mad that they make more money than you with zero effort or knowledge?

>>52996201
That’s very unhygienic. Imagine how many diseases she’s accumulated over her life

You fucking morons told me to buy SAVA calls 50c and they are all decimated in value. My fucking SAVA calls are completely destroyed you cunts, fuck you for ever shilling this stock.

is TLT down cause of the new spending bill?

Once tax-loss season is over, stocks can finally fly back to all time highs. I await a nice 50x return as CVNA finally recovers.

i ended up not making any trades except one. lost my profit from the day before and then some. should've known it would crab. oh well, that makes one win and one loss for this new strategy. i say new because its new to me, but its probably something everyone else has been doing for a long time. in any case i don't expect much movement next week unless some wild news comes out. untill then i'll just wait.

santa rally was delayed kinda wat expected, until next week or even january

>>52996254
Delayed due to winter weather

If only there were several boards specifically dedicated to video games, including genres you yourself are interested in. Then you'd have entire threads filled with posters to give you advice on the current Steam sale offerings.

Alas, no such boards exist on 4channel.org.

Why the fuck would you buy calls for a scam company?

I knew Santa wouldn't let it close red even though his enemies the jews wanted it

>>52996247
never ever buy biotech stocks. every pajeet scammer in the world picks those to shill because "bro it's gonna pass trials"

>>52996262
Lol right, it was a glitch I remember now. Recently a guy went into 4.4 million in debt and it's not a glitch. KEK

>>52996264
Scam? How do you think SAVA is a scam....
Are you serious?

>>52996239
I just started dumping money in last month teehee

>>52996281
Yeah, it pumped 20 something couple of months back. I bought puts and made a decent buck from it when it started to rug afterwards. 100% scam

>>52996249
LOL
Carvana just closed in Orlando

>>52996259
meeh. problem is dow is still too high and nasdaq is now only low

>>52996296
But what makes you think SAVA is a scam?

>>52996270
Check BTU and XLE. Santa is a coal and OIL baron.

Why did everything look like a crab salad? I got fucked with my AMZN shorts, shit.

>>52996331
Didn't they have legal trouble?

>>52996280
How? I’ve been looking for ways to sell naked calls forever on Robinhood, teach me

>>52996351
How does SAVA have legal trouble?

>>52996232
do you buy in the money options, or a certain #pts otm?
do you buy stock options, or market etfs?
do you do it any olde friday, or when there's a market event happening?

>>52996356
robinhood doesn't offer 'level 4' options afaik, which would include selling naked calls

>>52996371
You brought the company & you didn't even do a little research about what happened. Now you want some random anon to fill you in on it instead of doing a little research yourself.

>>52996337
why would you short amazon the day before christmas?

>>52996417
Cuz their earnings have been dropping for a while now. Even AWS is getting fucked.

I think brokerages have taken a page out of the cryptom exchanges and just give easy margin to any old person. Faster liquidation means faster profits for them. Hell, Schwab's default brokerage account now is margin enabled, what the hell!?

>>52996402

>>52996396
There’s got to be some way to trick them into letting me sell naked calls right

>>52996430
brokerages make money off of commissions, theyd prefer you not lose your money lol.

>>52996386
can you guys honestly just stop with the options and leverage shit? just trade shares of highly active stock.

>muh PDT rule muh $25k

yes. and that's a good thing. if you can't meet the PDT rules you shouldn't be fucking gambling you retard. get a job. earn enough money to be able to day trade shares. it will build character and teach you the value of a dollar. if you don't even have $25k the LAST thing you should do is bet on leveraged shit based on wonky math im guarantee you don't actually understand in any meaningful way beyond memes. if you go below $25k, good. work more. learn the lessons from your losses. stop being a faggot. way better than losing all your money on options with the $1k you have to your name you piece of shit. yes im talking to you. if you can't even afford $25k in your brokerage account, you don't belong in this game, period end of story. there is no discussing this point. the end.

>>52996434
why do you want to lose all your money so badly?

>>52996447
why are you so upset? even if you don't do these things you should understand how others go about it because it can affect the market

Calling a company like SAVA a "Fraud" is a very bold claim

now tell me what litigation or investigations are ongoing that would lead you to believe this hyperbolic idea that SAVA is a .....fraud


please stop spreading FUD about companies curing Alzheimer's.

>>52996447
>yes. and that's a good thing.

>>52996449
i sell naked calls almost every day, mostly to pay for groceries that i feel guilty about spending money on. bought deli turkey today for $13 fucking dollars a pound. insane. i'm not paying $13 a pound, so i paid nothing with the naked calls i sold.

>>52996432

>>52996468
now that's a foolish way to think - that the market "owes" you something. a bad swing and you're paying $100 on a mistake to get $13 you think you deserve

>>52996477
i roll calls automatically once they go 2x against me, via my foolproof, free money machine martingale strategy

>>52996468
stealing the turkey would be less risky than writing naked calls kek

>>52996417
i hate you guys for a lot of reasons, don't get me wrong. a lot of VALID reason. really valid reasons, in all honesty. you guys deserve to be hated.

anyways, that aside: probably the biggest reason i hate you guys is that you don't understand the concept of a "high probability bet". not a "sure thing" even, but a "high probability". no, you just do dumb shit like short amazon the day before christmas. i fucking hate you people and hope you live long lives full of suffering and pain. all of it deserved. ALL of it deserved, i cannot stress this enough.

I wonder if the week after Christmas will be the GIGA DUMP of the year or not?

>>52996454
I am upset with myself when I look at how much money I have lost with options that I had no business buying. I think most people are too stupid to buy options and their money would be much better off in some solid companies. Times are desperate and I think about getting into options again to escape the cage faster, but then I see how much I've lost on them and realize that gambling cash is better spent. I still gamble, but only on shares (very occasionally 2x-3x shares).

>>52996465
ok boomer

>>52996489
occasionally i will take the deli meat into the bathroom with me. last week i spent 45 minutes on the toilet while eating 1lb of very thin sliced ham

>>52996500
quick rundown? hasnt robinhood been fucked by people doing tricky option strategies before? their risk department sucks.

>>52996454
>why are you so upset?

because these are the kinds of people who lose that $1k which is all they had to their name. do you understand? stop being a dumb fucking nigger. sharing a general with dumb fucking niggers makes me mad, yes, this is true. stop it. honestly i enjoy watching dumb fucking double niggers lose their entire 4 figure portfolios in a single dumb trade, but i'd rather you just be white patriotic citizens who pay their taxes and have gainful employment and a brain instead, you understand?

>>52996505
i get that feeling at times. the smart thing is to drop trading for at least 3 weeks and clear your head. you're not doing it because this is your livelyhood and you need it to live, correct? you can come back later and if your methods are solid follow them without the emotion and make more than you would staying in and losing. i wonder how hard the sunk-cost-emotion is to a plan you were sure works, works many times, but just hasn't worked for so long and you don't have the nerve to stop following it

>>52996529
you just sound like a mad faggot and even if you have a legitimate point your madness makes it look retarded

>>52996465
Your are a complete retard Im afraid to say. The company was & is likely still under investigation by the US Justice department for fraud. Do a search on the internet instead of spending your time trying to write eloquently worded replies to sound smart.

So many companies are under DoJ investigation for nonsense reasons. Almost every single company out there has some sort of lawsuit.

Please tell me why you think these frivolous lawsuits into SAVA are anything but short sellers trying to make a quick buck?

>>52996593
Whats going on in that picture?

>>52996530
Sunk cost does not affect me in the slightest. If I am wrong I take the L, move on, and never look back. The only sunk cost I have is that I have lived too risk averse and I have not made it because of that. Trying to catch up in risk profile hasn't really gotten me anywhere so I've mostly given up in favor of Bogleheading. Maybe one day I can hone my data analysis skills better so I can make some trading system, but that has been slow and with nothing to show for it. Maybe one day gambling will pay off but for now just gotta be slow and steady.

>>52996253
>ended up not making any trades except one. lost my profit from the day before and then some

Ok your quite correct it is nothing to worry about. HODL & stay strong, also buy the dip your a long term investor remember.

>>52996685
Apy*

>>52996685
your broker's money market account probably beats that

>>52996552
you do realize that structurally speaking, retail is built to kneel to institutional right? not even some gme baggie or muh hedgies or anything, but take premarket for example allowing institutional trading at 4 AM while retail starts at 7 AM. it's so institutions can pump/dump to hedge and then slaughter retail

So what do i do until tuesday now?

>>52996685
put it into your broker's money market fund its like 4% rn instead of that pathetic 0.89%. maybe CDs if want a higher interest but don't need the cash that bad

if you had balls maybe dividend or value stocks

>>52996685
Uh time to move it. My bank's Emergency fund is paying out 3.30% now.

the quickest way to admit you lost the argument. i'll give you one more chance to actually have a real comeback that is well articulated. it doesn't help you that you even say "you have a legitimate point" in your dumbfuck ad hominem post.

go ahead, anon. surprise me.

>>52996793
no the quickest way to admit defeat is to throw in meme latin terms. there was no debate regardless you just inserted yourself in a talk to get mad

>>52996449
Lol what
Literally FREE money, the best hedge fund strats include selling naked risk

So starting at the year I was super bearish. Now that everyone is super bearish expecting the mother of all recessions I'm actually kind of bullish. I see the fed turning to asset purchases within a few months, should be really good for risk assets.
Thoughts?

>>52996828
Exact same for me. This recession is so expected it will end up as a nothingburger, maybe an additional -15% I won't give a single shit about other than letting me buy more for longer, and the rebound will be the same "fake pump" "lolno it will dump next week just wait and see" "fake and gay" until people have no choice than to admit the bottom was indeed in and it's only pump after that.

>>52996815
>doesn't actually have any argument to make against the points made previously

I accept your concession. You can stop posting now, it's embarrassing at this point.

Literally all of them. Pick a 13-f for any fund and look at them. Institutional traders are allowed to sell naked calls all day long, there’s even more of it happening in OTC markets where they sell naked swaps and naked calls all day fucking long

>>52996493
Why do you care about other people losing money on stupid gambles?

>>52996980
Well yeah a bit. Lowered it on DIS, VZ,and WBD. The rest aren't bad.

>>52996988
what are you even doing at this point, anon? you already lost, and yet you keep posting. what's going on in that brain of yours? normally i'd just stop responding to you, because you already lost, as previously pointed out, but you keep posting, and quickly. on an anonymous imageboard.

this thread will soon be over and all of this will go away, but you'll still be you. in real life, i mean. you realize this, don't you? honestly at this point im just curious. do you have anything to say for yourself? or are you just this stupid? honest question im not even trying to be mean, it seems like you legitimately have a low enough IQ to not understand the situation you're in. i pity you.

Nah, just buy options that don't expire for at least a month or two and follow market trends, I'm down like 5k just today but if next week if even a little rough I can easily make back like 15k.

>>52997182
Anon, the market is efficient. It's all priced in. This means that the expected value for all options is exactly 1. By the law of large numbers, your account balance will trend towards +0% over time. This means you should leverage fast and hard and walk away if you win, or if you lose you should continue playing as you will statistically approach your original balance.

I was never bad even at the start, unless you have a blind hatebonner for the design changes. I'm quite surprised at how faithful it is, they're not rushing anything, and at the pace it's going on, it will end up close with the numbers of episodes of the original (a bit less though, but for the better, it's better paced). Both Kenichi Suzumura and Mamoru Miyano do a convincing work as Yang and Reinhard respectively. Norio fucking Wakamoto is cruelly missing, but what can you do, he's irreplaceable. Biggest downpoint unfortunately is the music, we get some symphonic tracks like the in the original, but it's too sporadic and only reserved for the biggest battles. Other than that, it's the same pleasure as always to see the commentary describing both that republican system and the dictatorship system, with their pros and cons, and how a single person can affect them tremendously.

>>52997307
If your gonna bet big, then your gonna lose big too. Simple is, simple as.

>>52997395
Nothing. Several options strategies revolve around being on both sides of the trade like that. The idea is you're betting on volatility, more or less. You lose if line doesn't do much of anything.

>>52997395
Most brokers don't allow simultaneos short/long positions in the same account. There was an Fx trading system that was entirely based around that idea https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/245149-building-an-equity-millipede.. Essntially you just pick a direction short term and wait until your ball of profit snowballs.

>>52997395
your broker will stop you if you don't get the appropriate permissions to do whatever you want to do first

>As many as 248 million people, or nearly 18% of the population, likely contracted the virus in the first 20 days of December, according to minutes from an internal meeting of China’s National Health Commission held on Wednesday
-https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-12-23/china-estimates-covid-surge-is-infecting-37-million-people-a-day

250 million had it. That's like a fifth of their country. Now they're booking trips home for Lunar New Year on January 22nd. Trips which will require fuel, which Chinese refiners will need to make.

You know if the govt don't give a flying fuck about the "debt" (another 45 billion just got sent to Ukraine) why should anyone else. It's all a bunch of made up shat anyway. Zeros and ones on a computer screen. If a computer can say "hey there's an extra 3 trillion in money now" then surely it can also say "oops we spent 3 trillion on toilet seats" just as easy without fucking up everything else to make things go back in balance. Just like at your job. Payroll system dumps x amount into your checking account each month like clockwork. If that system says hey "Mr Smith is getting paid 5k a month" then that's what happens.

>>52997461
that is incredible. Do the chinese have like frequent orgy parties that they have been putting on hold due to the pandemic? Do they walk around ass to mouth like the human centipede? Is everyone going to the building roofs for goldfish viewing (this is a Chinese van with candy euphamism if you didn't know)?

>>52997499
The only reason to fear debt is the credit system screwing you over. That only really matters if you want to buy a house (which no one can do anyways). You better believe that once I eventually get a house I will apply for every credit card, max 'em out, and live well beyond my means. The numbers don't matter. They probably never did.

>>52997499
Now, Coke Boomer, you are starting to learn. Just because the Kentucky government (and, behind them, the Feds) promise you a gold plated $100k/yr pension doesn't mean that those 100,000 dollars will buy what you think.

The traders at the New York Stock Exchange were used to seeing all sorts of strange things on the trading floor, but they were not prepared for the friendly ghost who started haunting the floor one day.

At first, they were scared and tried to avoid the ghost at all costs. But as they got to know him, they discovered that he was just a friendly spirit who had been a trader at the Stock Exchange in life.

The ghost loved nothing more than to watch the traders in action and offer them advice on their trades. And, to everyone's surprise, his advice was always spot on.

As word of the friendly ghost spread, traders from all over the world came to seek his counsel. And the ghost was happy to oblige, using his insider knowledge to help them make the best trades possible.

Thanks to the ghost, the New York Stock Exchange became the most successful trading floor in the world. And the ghost, well, he was just happy to be a part of it all. The end

How aggressive are you about your career/wage income? Job hopping, resume shopping, skillmaxxing etc matters a lot more than squeezing pennies out of your portfolio early on.

Next, have you read the Boomer Investing 101 link in the OP? Do you have a solid grasp on the Jack Bogle approach, "time in the market beats timing the market" schtick?

Once you've got those two fundamentals down, read/listen to Peter Lynch. One Up on Wall Street is good. Then read Taleb's Black Swan and Antifragile for risk management and gains management.

At that point you should have a good fundamental framework to branch off into schizo day trading, technical analysis astrology, advanced antisemitism/Federal Reserve watching, Boomer stock picking, lots of things.

Incredibly wholesome.

Well in my case my pension is locked in. They (legislators,etc) can't fuck with it. Not without basically getting sued by a shat load of people for breach of contract. I'm under an inviolable contract with the state starting from the day I signed on back in 2005. Only one way for the pension to go away. And that's if the state goes belly up. But that's a non issue. State has almost 2 trillion in a rainy day fund with more excess revenue coming in this year than last. So the pension is safe and sound. Coming to me like clockwork from the day I retire at 54 to the day I die at 95 (or hell maybe 100). (Could retire at 48 but I'd be leaving easy money on the table so you know might as well get it while its there)

This past 12 months I've learned that shorting biotech during trials is basically free money

Thanks for the reply. I inherited most of what I have and want to manage it well. It’s not much but it’s mine. My problem is I’m extremely new but I’m worried about the market crashing so I feel like time isn’t on my side and that amplifies my fear. I don’t want to make ignorant or fear based decisions but if you feel the walls close in on you, then obviously you want to make moves and feel anxious.

I’ve read a handful of basic books (JL Collins and Ramit Sethi) but didn’t get to Bogleheads and the others yet. I have some stockpiled.

Everyone has been doing it for years. The big Mac is way smaller now than it was in the 90's. The big Mac used to be a double quarter pounder in terms of meat. People would rather get less than pay more. It's a retarded mindset but that's normalfags for you.

Don't get the tacobell chicken melt. Cost is like 1.50 and what you end up getting is a sad mess. A small rolled up thing with a bit of shredded chicken and cheese with the spicy sauce. You open the wrapper and go "WTF is this?"

>>52997737
I knew it. I swear I remember the big mac being massive when I was a kid. Also McFlurries used to be bigger too

>>52997748
Once upon a time there actually was real meat being used for Big Macs, too.
These days are long gone.

>>52997710
Well if you have a decent job and are saving plenty from it, a market crash won't force you to sell anything. Which means a brainless Boglehead approach of "have a diversified pile of stocks and bonds, wait for price recovery over 1, 2, 5, 10, or 20 years" works. Then you ought not to have any anxiety.

Also since you are extremely new, it's likely you'd shoot your dick off with active management (i.e. trying to time this next crash). Remember: to play a crash right you need to know when to sell *and* when to buy back in. That's easier said than done.

Hmm I don't know if it's fair to lump RRP with the other two. Reverse repos are just the Fed taking cash for other assets. It doesn't increase their assets in any way. Not a very useful measurement imo.

>Reverse repos are just the Fed taking cash for other assets. It doesn't increase their assets in any way. Not a very useful measurement imo.
That's cash the Fed's printed into the system but money market funds don't know what to do with, so they park it at the RRP. Similar to the cash the treasury's hanging on to in the TGA.

If money market funds rotate back into assets or the treasury spends down its account, that's unleashing liquidity.

buy more. get a job. wait years if you have to. the only way you lose is if you sell. i'd appreciate it, because you'll likely sell the bottom and it'd help me out, but you're going to be kicking yourself it line goes up without you. then you'll FOMO in and lose even more when it chops you up. i've been there before myself.

the problem here is that the main point im trying to convey to you is to get a good fucking job, ESPECIALLY while the economy is still strong and it's ez mode to get a job right now. lock that shit in now, senpai. have a good steady paycheck. then look for support levels to form and buy more and hold. whatever you do, check stock prices a year or two from now. i bet you'll be kicking yourself for selling now compared to prices then.

also learn all about the Fed and what economic indicators are dictating government and central bank policy around the globe. the more you can learn and correlate with index stock prices, the better. you should be skimming the financial news every morning to see what they're yapping about. then looking at charts. every day. forever.

>>52997971

yeah. did i stutter, bitch? is that webm your "evidence"? because evolution did that.

I also thought it was a good idea at the time. Right around the turn of the year when Jerome admitted to lying about inflation and how high rates would need to go it was time to GTFO. I pose this chart to SOXL holders regularly and ask to go through your thought process. I had a little rage after I sold the fifth circle, but it was only down from there.

These dubs nigga

>>52998014
i don't understand the question. it's part of the laws of physics. it's like asking what made electomagnetism possible. nothing did, it just is, it wasn't "made possible".

here, let me flip it on you: if God "made it possible", what made God possible?

My own take on the whole God/Religion thing; "God" is a made up thing. We are to stupid to understand it. Could be Aliens for all we know. Millions of years ago some aliens visited this place. If you were some dumb early human you'd consider them "gods" to. Point is we have no clue what or who God is. Modern religion is nothing more than a way to keep the sheep in line and keep the "church/holy men" rich and fat. They say "incest is a sin" "Drink is a sin". But read the bible. Plenty of incest and drinking took place. Funny how it was perfectly ok back then but now "oh no your doomed to hell" now.

>>52998065
there aren't any aliens either, anon. except illegal aliens. but those dudes are from mexico. btw Title 42 is going away soon so enjoy masses of wetback in our country soon, thanks Brandon :^)

>>52998086
i mean, like with anything else: what peer reviewed empirical evidence do you have? the worst part of all of this is that im entirely open-minded and im not even saying you're wrong. im just saying provide the evidence which conclusions can then be drawn from or fuck off. extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence so the more outlandish the claim, the greater the evidence must be to back it up. it's common sense, anon.

>b-b-buht you’re statistically supposed to lose money playing options
You’ll also statistically end up fat, divorced, and poorer than your parents retard. The market runs on logics that are fundamentally faulty to their core.

I did get bogged this week, I bought Lam Research and the next day it dropped 10%. They are still with us bros

>>52998124
Zero is the floor. I’d say about 50% lower than current prices would be fairly valued with current earnings. Earnings will decline so I’d guess 80% lower would be a good time to start nibbling long AMD.

it's a weird situation to be in, in all honesty.

The mechabism that their drug targets--amyloid plaques--does not and never had had anything to do with treating Alzheimer's. It's a red herring and everh single person in the medical community with more than 2 brain cells knows this, but normies don't, so scanners sell you snake oil. The data behind their studies are clearly and obviously manipulated and even if they're not their 'successful treatment amounts to 20% of the drug group seeing a DELAY in onset of symptoms on a time scale of weeks to months. It doesn't do shit and certainly doesn't cure grandma of her AD. But families are so fucjing desperate they'll screech and shit and fart at their doctors until they get their super special meds ordered that will totally cure grandma. We just went through this with a similar drug which caused half the FDA board to redign in protest, but it got passed due to straight cronyism. But SAVA doesn't have the clout or money to bribe their way in, the drug doesn't work, and MD's won't Rx it. I'll give it, I don't care, the whole system is fucked and I'm just here to make money like half of the other nurses I work with. Patients think they know better, and that medicine is a service like fast food, so I will happily serve our poisons if nobody wants to listen to sound medicine.
