Is it time to rebalance my portfolio for WW3? I'm thinking nothing but missiles, guns, cigarettes and alcohol.

>>8858066
Shit I've got class at 2. Maybe I should put down a straddle on something? I don't know the words the FED will be using.

thats the funniest part. this place HAS been the most diverse place on the internet for a couple years now. everyone else just virtue signals across the internet at each other. were actually all here everyday, bitching at each other and fucking with each other. we get more done than the UN in terms of establishing relationships with people in different countries

>>8858279

URA

Can someone tell me the syntax for linking to generals? I want to make /smg/ a bookmark

I think it's something like >>>/biz/catalog/smg/ ?

>>8858545
closest you can get is a link to catalog search

https://boards.4chan.org/biz/smg

>>8858545
Is there such a thing? This is a repeating thread that has a new number each time. Someone has to make it every time it hits the bump limit, like I did just now.

>>8858545
it looks like whatever you put after the >>>/biz/ is what gets entered into the search. if you made >>>/biz/smg that might work

>>8858433
>>8858452
Comfy confirmed psychopath

Im trying to play around with options. I want to write covered calls, but am having trouble figuring it out.

I want to hold my stock and collect the premium unless buyer decides to exercise. How do I do this? Instead I sold the stock and own a call option.

Its the actions that confuse me.

>>8858593
yup >>>/biz/smg works

>>8858580
I guess it's not possible to link to something directly even when you know there's a certain phrase in the OP, like /smg/.
>>8858567 is the best that can be done.
I guess I'll just add /smg/ to a filter so that whenever I show hidden threads it'll show up.

>>8858607
buy 100 shares, sell to open one call. You're just short NVDA and covered with a long call now.

>>8858456
It's a secret :^)

WHY WON'T IT GO DOWN

>>8858709
Because you want it to.

>>8858679

>>8858732
>>8858760
theres a lot of things about to happen that could seriously cause the market to tumble. buying out of spite is very poor risk management

>>8858630
ah, my mistake was selecting buy to open, not sell to open.

The problem is, it wants me to buy 100 shares when I already own 100 shares.

Is a normal sell to open call order the same as a covered call when you already own the 100 shares?

>>8858781

No no, everything I buy goes down. I was just offering to help >>8858709

minutes should come out any minute now. if its good it could offset the action in syria.

im nervous guys

>>8858787
If you already have the 100 shares, just sell to open one NVDA call. You don't have to use what ever covered call interface thing that is.

>>8858835
dont worry. its going down 1% today then up 1% tomorrow, then down 1% the next day and so on

Green day mostly. Some smaller caps lagging behind. The big four are all hovering around +3%. Good news out of the US this morning. Former Republican House Speaker John Boehner has joined advisory board for a US grower Acreage Holdings. That's a big ideological swing for him.

>tfw should bough tvix 20 mins ago

Well I've been long on the following for some time
$AMZN
$NVDA
$USO
$DNR
$BA

I just picked up some $X , I think steel is gonna have a brief run soon. I also went long NFLX. I started paying attention to NFLX this week and noticed it does pretty well even when the market runs bearish and I believe in their growth model. I just sold a ton of $SRAX. Did pretty well on that one. Trying to make some agressive plays in the next week or so. I work on a fishing boat in the bering sea without internet though, so in a month I'll have to buy long positions and ride it out.

>>8859476
>>8859479
I like both these plays, I bought a few shares of each. When my next check comes I'll probably double up on em

>>8859553

I bet you're holding a portfolio full of penny stocks waiting for a moon mission.
I did that my first year of trading. I turned $5000 into 10 grand in a month. The second month I lost $7 grand. I'll take solid, regular growth any day over gambling for moon missions.

>>8859642
ill never invest in shit like that, banks, surveillance corps, all that shit is cancer and if you sell your morality for money then might as well go circumcise yourself while your at it

>>8859565
>$X
I hope so, I've been long X since the election and keep kicking myself for not closing out over $40.

something happened?

>>8859734
I have been watching and waiting. If you look at the archives, back when $CLF was $3 a share and $AKS was the same around 2016, I posted a ton of my own research on here telling people to buy the shit out of it because iron ore pellet prices had been consistently rising to 2008 levels. Some anons followed my advice, and a month later those stocks had nearly doubled.

I work with a ton of liberals and I bite my tongue when I hear them bitch about trumps 'Trade war'. Obama slapped 516% taxes on Chinese steel in 2016 as well. This is pretty routine. I think we're gonna lift off again soon, but I admittedly havent done the research this time, mere speculation.

Newfaf here, if aside from earnings reports, news affects stock prices, wouldent it make sense to buy just before a earning report.

>>8859784
Earnings reports are not always positive

>>8859784
Look at OLED and tell me you want to do that.

FUCK. My Day Change just keeps going down! MU is the last man standing.

>>8859784
depends on the stock. You can generally look at the history of how the prices reacted to news in the past. I like to ride the hype prior to an announcement and keep a tight stop loss. If you don't know about stop losses, google it. Basically if the announcement is bad news and the stock crashes, a stop loss will trigger a sale quicker than I could have noticed and sold on my own.

>>8859705

NO THIS CANT BE HAPPENING THE FEDS TOLD ME THE ECONOMY WAS ALRIGHT

>>8859789
Yeah i mean its important to grasp whether it will be good or bad, but if you hold onto stocks waiting for bad/good news that cant be predicted.

At least a earnings report you can kinda tell what will be there.

The bottom looks to be falling out today.

But Boeing buys its metal from suppliers that they have fixed contracts with. That's why when aluminum prices went up like 30% last year it didn't really hurt BA stock.

>>8860198
Idk if its doing it now cuz I stopped watching it but after it ran, it stayed up in down in almost the same daily range for 3 weeks. I just kept buying at the bottom, and selling for an easy 10 percent every couple days. ya gotta watch the moving averages when it bounces like that because its gonna get tighter and drop earlier and earlier.

JUST FUCKING DUMP ALREADY JESUS CHRIST

DIE ZUCKNUCK

how do people normally take profits on leveraged positions? obviously theres value in closing positions and reloading on other stuff since leverage amplifies your returns, but too often doing that would surely end up in too much volatility with too big of risk factors would it not?

>>8860548
take profits on leveraged positions

always do at the end of day. If I long something is 2:1 max.

that gigantic red dildo on FBs last 15 mins is making me feel pretty ok about holding puts overnight.

thx red dildo, i love you too

>>8860560
it feels like a million bucks.
well, that's if you actually earned a million bucks.

>>8860567
2x leverage you mean?

I have about 20 positions open on 1broker mostly on multi day trades. For instance I got into EURUSD at 1.223 on 100x on the 5th, 6 days now and im up 100% but the top of the channel is at 1.24 or so i was hoping to take profits there, would you on leverage typically take profit NOW, then just immediately rebuy with my original position and hold the 100% profits off for something else? that seems no different than just moving my stop loss up and letting it run though, and doubling my position seems highly dangerous, though of course thats only ultimately risking what I bought in for to begin with, since the rest of the positino growth was my already taken profits?

i dont know if im explaining how i see it in my mind but im just not sure when is normal to take profits and reinvest on leverage, its definitely different than buying 'normally' and letting stuff run due to the compounding nature of leverage

market's closed
good job everybody

>>8860860
why didn't you do a straddle ?

has anyone here ever played wallstreet speculator? its some shareware game from like the 90s, but its pretty fun (and unless you suck at trading its really easy to get above 500,000, which allows you to unlock all of the options of the full version).

i wanna figure out a way we can play online together it over a network or something. i think it would be fun

>>8860899
Just fooling I have an IC on it and thought it was testing my put side.

>>8860952
It is strange to use IC for earnings
I am an option noob but I would systematically use a straddle since the market is very itchy during earnings

>>8860906
That looks fun

>>8860906
ripoff of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wall_Street_Kid

i dunno though. the dude who made it has upgraded it pretty consistantly for like ten years. its a pretty fun game in its own right.

can i emulate this one on NES? or is there no language patch? i cant read moon

>>8860988
My thought process is to use the high IV so when it drops because earnings is over and the market won't expect anymore big moves I can buy/close the IC lower compared to the credit I received usually around 40-50% of the original credit.

If I had to use a straddle the breakeven points where really far out around 17-18 and 22-23 before I saw any gains since the debit to buying the straddle has a high premium cause of the high IV.

A strangle would have been good too, but I like defined risk trades more.
I'm just starting out using options too so I might not right.

>>8861145
this is good stuff anon. i wish i had margins to trade short contracts. everyone always kvetches saying shorting options contracts is impossibly dangerous, but ICs are pretty much the safest bet you can make (if you want to make em that way)

>>8861145
Are you doing a net debit or net credit iron condor?

>>8861193
credit

>>8861145
You are right
If you only look at the P&L chart, straddle would be the play to go to
But with the greeks, it is definitely a bit more complicated.

So for your BBBY IC, how did it turn out ?

>>8861184
Actually your right a credit straddle would have been okay too.

>>8861242
It turned out okay probably only see like 20-30 bux if it hovers around 18-19 and I try to close tomorrow.

>>8861328
Nice
It may only be 20-30$, but percentage wise, it must have been pretty decent for the risk exposure and the time

>>8861242
do you know of anywhere i can mess with options P/L graphs? like an interactive chart where i could graphically plan out my moves. my broker used to have such charts, but stopped having them

>>8861481
best I could find.

Should I try to time the market when buying more of my mutual fund? Are we going up or down tomorrow?

>>8861907
Mutual funds trade at end of day, so its whatever the price at the end is

>>8861958
That's a good point. So if we have a big red day tomorrow I'll scramble to put in my order before 4pm so I can get that day's price. If we move sideways I'll wait a bit longer.

ATVI good pickup?

>>8862011
Yes
Here, buy my 21 shares of ATVI

>>8858038
My nigga, AAOI dipped so hard this bounce was inevitable.

Now we just need a good earnings report to moon it half way up the old peak

>>8862011
>up 35% in the last year

Yes, be a good goy and buy someones gains

Whats the deal with Robinhood options and Crypto?
Wtf is taking so long to get the features?

Can someone tell me why war with Syria is bearish? Surely picking a fight with an enemy that has zero chance of winning will just be a boost to GDP and therefore good for the economy?

>>8862647
It isn't bearish
Wars are usually good for stocks :^)

>>8862647
That enemy has russia on their side, russias animal is the bear, I dont need to explain it you know the deal with bears.

>>8862647
Because growth economics is a meme, you just dont know it yet.
Youll learn the hard way though, as will everyone.
>How would the US pay for war with a 20 trillion dollar deficit?
>By making a 40 trillion dollar deficit
but hey that GDP is oh so fucking important.

>>8862757
>20 trillion dollar deficit

>>8862647
OK I got some 12 year old scotch, beer, and some cocaine and want to draw meme lines and prepare some ideas we can use for some credit spreads. So lets get to work. Step one we have to find some meme tickers. I'm going to go to finviz since they've usually got a ton of memes on the front page.

>>8857852
Get the fuck out of my crypto board you wagecucks.

>>8862795
This one caught my eye.

>>8862860
Looks like it is at a buy right now.

TRRRUUMMMMMMMMMPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!

>>8862931
So lets take a look and see if we can find out when they're due to report earnings.

>>8862771
go look up the difference between annual and cumulative, the US is 20 trillion in debt
the earth has limited resources, food prodcution is limited, potable water is limited, growth economics is a fucking meme. you cant keep growing infinitely, at some point it has to stop. or maybe you agree we should import 1 million people to the US a year and see what happens? sigh

>>8862983
Went back to finviz and found this. May 8th before market open. So we're probable going to want our contracts to expire before then.

>>8862931
>up 50% in the last year
>up 145% in the last five years
Buy high, sell low!

>>8863021
you were the one who said a 20 trillion deficit so maybe you should look the diffrence up

>>8863022
Well when we look at the option chain on these guys, we see the only contracts available before the 8th are the 4/20 contracts. On top of that there's no volume on the options for this meme. No volume = no liquidity = fuck that find something else.

>>8863051
We weren't buying it we were just going to place a bull put credit spread and hope it expired OTM.

when I get verified on robinhood how do I turn $10 into big money?

>>8862829
nigger

>>8863022
i think it seems a little high desu
not sure how that would effect your credit spread (if it were to fall), as i know very little about options strategies that involve shorting contracts. i thought CSs were for stocks that were flat?

also, if youre interested i actually made a backup board that we can use and not get slid. should be useful to post plans if you feel like sharing em, and since its an empty board we can do whatever we want with it.

i primarily made it to collect and backup books and pdfs (and vids) and share em with /smg/, but the fact that its an imageboard makes it useful to post plans etc...

take a look at it if ya want, and if ya know any good books i should add let me know

That oil meme USO have a very liquid options market (I picked up some calls my self today) so lets take a look at that one. How is that one trending on the daily?

>>8863166
Looks like it's on an upward trend, and it broke that double top today. It's trading well above it's moving averages which is fine cause this fucking thing can go all the way up to the launch pad, but we're going to need some other kind of fuel to get to the moon.

>they laughed when I bought DBX on IPO day

>>8863166
>>8863216

im playing a straddle on USO desu. sold off my 13 calls today and rolled into some may calls/puts on 13.50. if we get no serious action in syria in the next few days it will certainly pull back a lot, but any kind of military action at all will cause a spike

doing pretty much the same strat on SLV. sold my calls today and set up another straddle. good inflation hedges do good in times of inflation, who wouldve thought?

Brainlet here

I saw a stock (NRO) that has a high dividend yield, but has been bleeding money for a long time now. How can a company like that get away with having a high div yield despite that?

>>8862795

Finviz is good stuff. Best site if you want to find stocks that are oversold for no good reason.

>>8863243
no i laughed at the fools who bought SPOT at $160. what kind of invalid does something like that?

>>8863254
well that means they probably are one credit downgrade away from slashing divs to nothing, so probably best to stay away if youre in it for the yields

>>8863244
You have to remember what happens to gas prices every summer... It's like a natural ebb and flow with this stuff. Look at a longer time period of this meme on the weekly candles. It pretty much spikes up from May till june/july and starts falling from august to september pretty much like every year. The big crash is probably attributed to the US shale boom and increased supply we saw back around that time. Let me get some more ice for my scotch.

>>8863307
I bought a tiny bit of SPOT on the first day at the price it is now. I still think it's a good long term hold.

Someone, anybody’s got to bake after the thread hits 300 replies (usually means bump limit is reached). Use sages if the post is hovering at the front page and you don’t want to bump it so fast.

>>8863307
thanks for the explanation

>>8863349
Looking at this chart I see a strait upward trend that should continue. Now we have to remember this is like some oil meme so we don't really care too much about earnings as much as we would supply and demand and seasonal boom busts that we see in these energy types of commodities. Also unrest in the middle east can cause this shit to fucking moon, as the Eurocucks start importing American oil.

>>8863349
>>8863422

youre forgetting whats really driving it right now though. were not to its season yet, but its taking off. its already crushing it because inflation, but more importantly because things are heating up in the middle east. looks like israel launched an airstrike, everyones waiting on US response, UN has already made their mind up regardless of the thus far lack of concrete evidence on anything related to the alleged gas attack, and also the houthis attacked saudi arabia earlier today.

any one of these things escalating further will be a catalyst for oil, and seasonality should compound with it.

>>8863422
what we should look for is some sort of ETF/ETN that tracks oil on a leveraged basis. UWT suks because it resets internally daily, so we need to find something that resets on a week to week basis
