Which dips did you traders buy into today? I always keep a couple thousand in my account set aside for days like these. Love getting a good scalp

Yeah definitely funny business in the market today, these swings ultimately raise volatility....

is now a good time to buy CRON?

Now we're talking. Ahhhhhh…..

It's days like these where I seriously consider closing my account and waiting until the market finds some sort of pattern that resembles a trend. This is pure fucking chaos.

you do realize that buying tvix is actually continuously buying OTM calls and puts? it goes to zero over time anon

Thinking of buying 14.5 puts on SNAP before earnings. Good idea or bad?

>>9192103
long vix is basically selling OTM put and calls
you can do that yourself anon its called a covered call

>>9191828
higher oil prices means more corn demand, as well as basedbeans, due to them being used in ethanol. wheat is more tied to weather patterns in Russia and Ukraine

>>9192028
>you do realize that buying tvix is actually continuously buying OTM calls and puts?
this is why TVIXco. is the official company of /biz/. they took our model one step further. buy low and never even bother to sell. just keeping buying more low

I'm definitely not shorting the vix, but like the other anon said, if it's guarenteed to go to zero, why would you just take out a long time put?

>wat is reverse split?

i cant tell if ur fucking with me or not. trust me man, holding derivatives over that longterm, is safe (sans theta). it simply doesnt matter. it adjusts for reverse splits.

>>9192155
it's a gamble. stock will need to move to around 13.5 for you to make profit as implied vol is high

I'm looking at late june puts, I think they are going to miss on earnings badly.

Why is it pumping?

>>9192098
whoops too late missed your chance

>>9192255
in the last thread you had a massive trade against buying OTM puts and calls and that it'll lose all your money. but in this thread, you say that going long vix, which is essentially just buying a lot of OTM puts and calls, is a good idea

are you retarded kek

>>9192308
>are you retarded kek
he's an attention hungry autist with a name and tripcode, what do you think

Why does nobody talk about AMRS anymore?

>>9192288
to bait you
this is the headfake

>>9192308
details are important lad.
OTM puts with 3days to expiry IS retarded
slinging options on vol is how you do it, as opposed to HODLing UVXY/TVIX like a retard (where youre "going to zero" theory is totally true).

i trade vol literally all the time. long and short (and both at the same time). other than when i bought an OTM put with no time to expiry (see above: retarded), ive yet to have it go to zero on me

>>9192288
>>9192357
The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent :^)

>>9192288
Bog markets do this


In true bear markets you'll get plus minus 2 percent swings. But make no mistake on its overall direction.... There is some manipulation here that will be apparent over the comming days as to why.

>still no tvix candy bar edit

>>9192254
some definitely has, but corn is slightly better suited for production and the brewers grains that are left over from corn are worth more. The production plants can also quickly change to a different grain input.

>>9192384
true. but i only got one real gamble/scratcher right now (QQQ puts). everything else i got is a wait and see type situation with upwards of a year and half to expiry on some of them

Based bogs letting me pick up more puts and TVIX cheap

>>9192578
safer than HODLing the stock thats for sure.
its a gamble trading vol anyway you look at it. some ways are just better than others

I have a strangle on apple, so I dont care direction, but I want apple to dump. This is the only way new innovation will happen.

>>9192583
i like to think there's sane ways to be long / short vix

if you expect vix to go up (or stay high), buy stocks low and sell sell stocks high. that is, act as a market marker. high volatility means this will be a profitable strategy.
if you expect vix to go down (or stay low), do some momentum investing. sell things that are going down and buy things that are going up. if volatility is low, momentum will drive prices and this will be profitable.

>>9192663
>UVXY -70% YTD
>safer than stock

Why the fuck did I think I could catch a knife?

>>9192725
Holy shit, and I thought LL was bad.

>>9192725
Thats not a knife that's a lightsaber

>>9192667
Apple will probably announce something new soon so i fucking hope it dumps. So i can buy the dip.

>>9192725

>/smg/ in a nutshell

>>9192697
youre not wrong
this is literally what the index is for. but youre really just going long and short common stock. thats kind of different than making a play on vol itself. sure, its a wallstreet trap (how else could they afford to buy all those shitty OTM contracts?), but its a fun one so long as you arent throwing a huge percentage of your portfolio at it

>>9192723
you either gotta work on your baiting skillz or your reading skillz. i honestly cant tell with poes law and all

>>9192725
>doump of it

>>9192783

>>9192787
I have no idea why I didn't see that coming.

holding *derivatives* longterm over UVXY is as "safe" as trading vol gets, i can assure you. check the really long term contracts m8. they adjust for reverse splits. so this continual march downward WILL affect the stock, but will not affect the derivatives that have the reverse split already factored in.

>>9192841
the divs are sick tho

>>9192875
uvxy has not done a reverse split since july 17, 2017. since then it has lost half its value.

>>9192916
do you understand how volatility works? the VIX spikes. it doesnt go up and then consolidate at 50. it spikes there, and then immediately plummets. this is the entire reason i trade UVXY contracts. its swings are wild. all you have to do is have a defined exit point where you think vol will spike to, set your limit, and then forget about it (atleast thats how i do it, i cant be arsed to watch the fuckin VIX all day, it drives me nuts).

Would you goys recommend buying calls on either
DBA

GSG
or DBC?
All the ETNs pretty much look the same to me, I'm not sure how to evaluate an ETN for potential options.

There's significantly more open interest in them on puts than calls.
If it does, it'll probably dip the day after though.

Once I make 20% I may cash out, due to fear of bubble popping. Then I just wait a year or so to buy lower.

If Israel, with their “evidence”, convinces is to get involved against Iran.
I really don’t think that’s going to happen. But if a ramble, but perhaps they want leverage for renegotiating the nuclear deal with Iran. As for the comment on steel, just want to clearing that in wartimes the demand for steel increases so tariffs on international steel would be bad during war time. Could just be posturing.

This must be the gutiar equivalent of hiptsery and/or edgelordry

>>9194008
>tfw the contracts were set for $175

>>9194017
i would be inclined to agree with you but seriously, pick up one of those weird pawn shop guitars. not all of them are created equal, you gotta rifle through a lot of them. but youll find one at one point and youll plug it in and go "FUCK who turned up the amp?" and it will be screeching and screaming like its got metal distortion on it. you put that in good wood, have nice tone and volume pots, and use your volume and tone knob to control the craziest fuzz/distortion you could possibly ever have. you roll the volume back, crystal clear leads with super sensitive dynamics.

i dont even know why, because they are seriously made out of fridge magnet material sometimes, but they are completely unparalleled imo in terms of sound.

>>9194017
also if you leave volume on half, you can more or less control distortion based on how hard you hit it. very cool

>>9194035
>>9194008
Is it time to close your calls tomorrow and open some puts for a dump????

>>9194125
I know a guy that knows his shit when it comes to guitars. He's always going to pawn shops and yard sales and flipping the gems he finds for some decent side money.

>>9194125
Nah I like you bro I was joking
Only skillz and the final results should matter

>>9194150
this is also EXTREMELY EFFECTIVE and paid my rent for years when i got fuck all else

>>9194149
Prolly with the fed meeting going on ... unless after the past week it's priced in.

>>9193622
He gives some very funny presentations. That’s something he’s consistent in. Kinda scary voice too desu.

based apple has saved us

steve jobs is smiling down from his place in founder-ceo heaven

>>9194182
AAPL is going to sell off hard tomorrow.

>>9194125
Besides, I fucking love the guitar sound of the 60s-70s, in which imo artists were exploring new horizons with their equipment
We were at the limit and the results could be qualified as "dirty" or "unpure". But I find them so full of warm and "organality", contrary to say 80s sound.
In a way, it was the imperfection that makes me fond of the 60s-70s sound.

>>9194157
try it tho.
its fookin crazy. its worth wasting the $20 on a piece of literal garbage if the pickups are those ones

>>9194176
its like hes got a pitch shifter on

>>9193881
YES thank you.
Except Twitter. Twitter is only going up. Especially if they fix their advertising system. Buy now while you can! Or else hold your bags in peace.

Apple beat revenue but it looks like they are selling a lot less phones. Especially in china, I wonder whats going to heppen when people read this better.

>>9194197
if your talking like garage type stuff THAT is exactly the tone im talking about. its completely impossible for regular pickups. even humbuckers cant compete

for example
listen to the lead in this track
that weird 60s fuzz shit
its just crappy guitar
THATS the secret
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEpSFOibJho

lmfao at people spending hundreds of dollars on fuzzboxes

>>9194228
They will just keep increasing the price to maximum tolerance levels.

>>9193668

LMAO

>>9194228
>>9194191
Right there buddy.

>>9194228
Get ready for the dump. Recent gains for Apple are temporary, relatively speaking, unless they do something innovative.

>>9194228
apple revenue is going to increasingly come from app store sales
in 20 years no one will own desktops or laptops anymore, it'll all be phone based

>>9194266
kek never felt so calm and happy getting BTFO on a short (QQQ)

i tell ya this brazilian psych music is strong shit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrKssj5OI_o

>>9194343
Do you short it or just buy sqqq?

>>9194246
Ov vey
That's it mayne
I was more thinking about Hendrix's sound
But that is exactly what I am talking about : that dirty, fully analogue, almost uncontrolled distortion and fuzz.

>>9194373
I am guessing put on QQQ because the facial value of a share is higher (more option price swing)

>>9194373
nah it was a couple puts. it was my scratcher for today.
im still not sure the FED is letting us off this easy but idgaf right now because brazil makes good fucking music
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2s03lJmb9ho

>>9194392
yup. this is why gibson is going bankrupt. folks spend thousands to sound like some vague idea of what the 60s sounded like. you gotta think it was just broke kids playing $20 guitars making all the good music back when.

on the real i stole the idea from beefhearts
slide guitarist ry cooder (also studio musician on so fucking much uncredited stuff your head would spin).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_QCjmZnUmM

if im not mistaken brian may has similar pickups too. its a secret... shhhhhh

>>9194392
just be careful
i wasnt kidding when i said its an affliction
i literally cant stand most guitars now. theyre all fancy lookin fake tits and no BALLLLZ

I'm actually retarded

>>9193356
Here better written journals:
Today is saddest day in trading career


>on robinhood
>my SPXU short yield major profit today
>had 450$ in robinhood 10:30
>open robinhood for close trade 12:30
>$140 in account

The bank retroactively declined payment to robinhood in favor of their own fees

>wiped out week of winning trades
>added $40 reversal fee
>added $34 charge back fee
>never get to close trade
>balance now $120

This worse than losing money normally, huge psychological blow@ me typical invincibles confidence

>>9194343
Shit man , it may even happen before AH over, a bart formation approaches

My score card got fucked today.

UVXY went down which fucked me
SPY went up which fucked me
USO went down which fucked me
GLD went down which was ok
LQD went down which was ok
TLT went down which was ok

So I got half the picks right, but I'm going to need to see some pic related tomorrow or I'm going to get fucked.

>>9194565
That's a bull put spread. What's retarded about that?

>>9194586
You can dispute it with CS at your bank.
They usually just give it back to you if it isn't a recurring thing.
I had two accounts linked RH accidentally withdrew from the wrong and got charged a shitton
just sent a message to capital one and they refunded me. I even threatened to close my account since I didn't even use it.

>>9194657
Whoops forgot to include Its SNAP

>>9194586
Hey it could be worse, im down 10k this year overall. The bank jews will always win. Once upon a time I had a negative bank account balance. Theres highs and lows in life.

>>9194288
I think that there will be drastic changes, but theres definitely going to be larger interfaces than phones

>>9194680
I would try buying to close the short option and keep the long put running I guess.

>>9194723
Probably do that it was just for funzies.
Daddy Cook got my back for tomorrow anyways since I did the same spread.

>>9194716
you'll plug your phone into your portable monitor and keyboard.
if you have a bluetooth keyboard and mouse you can connect it to your phone right now
if you have the right monitor you can connect it to your phone right now
only thing that needs to be updated is phone OS to actually support this with a usable UI

>>9194764
I have no clue though, SNAP got so just'd that it might just fucking cat bounce tomorrow and you could end up in a worse position than losing $200 you risked on the spread.

pelo poder do brasil, eu comando o nasdaq a cair

>>9194820
snap is going to continue to get JUST'd. they've been outcompeted by instagram. the only thing that can save them is a truly brilliant product plan that facebook cant copy, which is impossible because facebook's pockets are infinitely deep

https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SNAP

How much does /smg/ spend/make on options? I put 90% of my portfolio in blue chips, and with the remaining 10% I'm trying to make 20 - 30% gains per contract (so far not going so well). Pussied out on some calls today before the rally so I'm kicking myself in the ass for that.

>>9194853
Spiegel is a moron. This is the guy that didn't think the Android marketshare was worth considering.

>>9194991
honestly like 1-3% (and more often closer to 1) of my portfolio is around what ill put on any single leg of an options bet.
anything more and youre asking to get nuked

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqcq4wwjL8o

>>9194991
if im hedged though ill go closer to 5%

>>9194820
Max loss is capped at 62. I'll see tomorrow if it hovers around 12 tomorrow I'll just keep the spread and see if I can go to 13 by expiry. If not I'm fine.


>>9194991
Each position I enter is usually 1-5% so if its a loser I don't get wiped. I usually close out when I reach 30-50% return depending how I feel.
If I still feel it has more to give I open a new position with updated strikes.
i.e my SNAP spread which I was already skeptical on. Same for things I'm pretty positive on like MSFT or AAPL I keep small.

>>9194991
whatever you do, dont second guess yourself on options plays. the slippage can be pretty tremendous.

if youre not totally convinced on a play, hedge when you make the trade (ie buy 1 put for every 3 calls vice versa)

>>9195350
>buy 1 put for every 3 calls
why would you do this?

>>9195371
You are sort of buying an insurance if your original play and assumption go sour

>>9195371
its like an uneven strangle. helps minimize downside so i can get out without 100% loss if i totally blow it

i dont like total liquidation of my positions so id gladly trade a couple points upside to not have to deal w it

>>9195371
For example, I got JUSTed on GILD today
I know GILD is the dog of Wall Street and I shouldn't have any hope that it would have popped on today's ER
I thought about selling a covered call on this shit and use the premium buying a put
I would have capped my gain but protected in case of a Bog intervention

But in the end I did nothing and get justed. Even if I sell calls in the coming days, the premium will be less.

A question for M.Profit : should I sell a covered call tomorrow or should I wait a few days ? My guess it the GILD katana will continue to fall.

>>9195434
That does sound like a good idea, although I'd regret getting burned on the puts instead

>>9195480
pic related looks pretty ugly
>My guess it the GILD katana will continue to fall
looks like it
>should I sell a covered call tomorrow or should I wait a few days ?
honestly selling covered calls into the knife is your best shot to get some back. go JUST some poor cucks on theta

>>9195619
thats why i say do it like a strangle with OTM puts.

>>9195480
If you bought calls your losses are already capped to what you paid for.
I wouldn't put more money into a loser.

If your long the stock then you could just cut your losses now and do a PMCC if your still bullish since the capital requirement is much less.

>>9195480
also if you sell tomorrow youll get a TON more vega too. thats your best bet

i had to do that on UNIT today because it was crashing for no reason

>>9195641
Oh fuck that's a good idea. Bless your soul prophet. I couldn't do anything else for my GOOG play though (they the $1020 calls were like $25.40 contracts).

>>9194266
Inventory seems to building too. Aren't they selling much these days? I've never owed any Apple stuff myself.

>>9195691
yowch. yeah its always better than losing it all. just beware if it settles in between your strikes close to expiry youre even more fucked than you were. choose your strikes wisely

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIXzDObpOHs

>>9195641
Technicals and current fundamentals of GILD is shit
But I am bullish long-term on their developping gene therapy meme (Yescarta, 40M$ sales for its 1st ever quarter)
Guess I will do what you suggest
Do you know an online app calculating the price of an option ?

so guys

GOOG to $2000 when

i've been waiting for awhile now

please

Where do you buy Crypto guys?

Thx caralho

kek im dry right now. used to have some years ago for buying mushrooms.

ive been waiting patiently for the /biz/ catalog to be full of live, on-cam an heros. most people say buy when theres pink wojacks. im going even further than that. the moment i see NEETpocolypse im dumping all of my money in. after it makes its historic run to 100k i will cash out and go back to stocks as i dont really like the idea of holding such a volatile asset class

>>9195803
I think it's gonna dip back to its support again within the week ($1018). Low chance things will keep going up with the fed shitposting tomorrow. Think I'll get in some calls again after that.

anybody else on SQ?

Really predictable right now ever since fakeblock shat the bed, make an easy 20% month to month

NO ONE SHORT SNAP
SNAP IS GOING TO MOON HARD TOMORROW
NEVER BET AGAINST OUR LORD SNAP

Thoughts on market tomorrow? futures mildly green, I expect a brief uptick in apple momentum and then more dumping. I wonder if the feds will raise rates tommorow or not.

>>9194765
Microsoft has something like this called Continuum, but Windows 10 Mobile bombed, as you can imagine. Samsung has something like this too with DeX. Either case though, it's extremely clunky and feels too first gen.

>>9196369
im scared of imminent collapse of everything so im in all hi div stuff. but SQ was my horse for a while. im certain they will take over the world. literally every retail store in the whole country uses their card payment devices.

i sincerely dont know why they arent worth like $100/shr like other card payment gurus

>>9196454
please compare companies' valuation by using market cap instead of stock price.

>>9196510
i was just joking around

but like i said, a lot of people are startign to use them and they are expanding at a faster rate than the bigger ones (obv cause theyre smaller and newer, but still everyone ive talked to loves their service). id say its got a lot of upside to it. moreso than the other guys in that field

>>9196452
give it time. people dont know they want it yet. and yes, there will need to be improvements

I was looking at BGFV calls today but I didn't buy any.

>>9196545
sq has some really brilliant people working for them, I know some personally. there's a lot to be said about a company that can retain great people. but the payment space is becoming increasingly crowded and I suspect quite saturated even as it grows. the questions is if digital payments will grow faster than competitors enter it, but I'd bet that there will be slipping margins in the near term future for every payment service.

>73K people thought buying into SNAP was a good idea

>>9196638
>sq has some really brilliant people working for them, I know some personally
they really do seem to have their shit together. the fact that the stock is so volatile makes it a bonus. i use to swing that bad boy with like half my equity.

if they beat the other guys to the punch on the crypto payment services they will moon for sure. that would be huge and then they wont have to bump into their current competitors as much

>>9196369
I'm just going long on SQ. Maybe if it reaches support again near $45 I'll tap into options

I'm getting all drunk. I feel like doing some meme analysis.

>>9196369
>>9196780
>>9196698
>>9196638

Ok I'll do some meme analysis on the SQ. I mean we all know that their business is great because they're in the business of helping other businesses get paid for goods and services. It's like a fundamentally great model.

>>9196860
im trying to figure out if the FEDs gonna hike rates tomorrow. if they do, long UUP will be a freebie

>>9196892
Just buy the shit now and sell it next weeek for $55.

>>9196860
Whatcha drinkin', brother? Bottle of Jim Beam here. Bourbon helps my "financial creativity".

I got my self Jagermeister and Vodka.

Ugh, I should have fucking bought SNAP puts! I was one click away and I told myself "no, don't fuck with SNAP or TSLA, they don't make any fucking sense"

>>9197154
i know that feel.
i was gonna get SNAP puts AND BGFV calls and flaked on both of them. instead i got a QQQ 161 put. fuck me

im really happy for big5guy though. i dont know where exactly hes bagholding from but that should put a dent in it

>>9196910
I think rate hike will just be constant slow predicted rise. It's going to pressure equitiies all year.

>>9196266
Huh was nothing like I thought I’d be lol, very nice

>>9197623
it seems theres been like 25 basis points a week. check pic related. i want to try this out. the rhoyield on UUP is like 18% ATM (so 4.3% per 25 basis point). combine that with the boost youd get off of the dollar anyways from the rate hikes and it should be a gimme

anyway heres my plan atleast. i shouldve done it a week ago on UUP, but i figured it would dip and i could get an entry desu

>>9197710
thats that band for ya.
theyre all over the place. some of their shit is almost noise music. and then theres really pretty stuff like this which sounds like it couldve come out yesterday.

idk wtf was up with the whole australian punk scene going disco/experimental in the end of the 70s, but i dig it. theres some real gems

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORt6up6EEW0

its kinda sad that the only group that got any recognition out of this whole scene was nick cave. imo the birthday party was the worst, most generic band in the whole little band scene
