Sorry from last thread...


>>9227839
USD is stuck. There are so many people short the dollar that its going to moon even harder when the squeeze comes.

I believe that this is what the administration wants so we can find an excuse to gold back our currency, give the big middle finger to China et.al., tarriff the shit out of them bagholding our debt and become completely self sufficient. USA literally needs no resources from China anymore. Especially after the "near infinite" mine of rare earths uncovered in Japan recently.

We will make anime real together.

If the libtarded fucks take control of congress you're god damn right they'd put us in a recession, they do it all the time.

Some brainlet just copypastaed the 4chan without the url

>>9227954
kek yea they would definitely aggravate the problem.

but i dont think that either side will be able to pull us out of this one. its been a long time coming

What advice would you give to someone that wants to get into trading?

Should I just lurk awhile?

Whats the difference in Robin Hood, interactive brokers, and ameritrade?

>>9227976
some of us have our 4chan settings to "linkify" addresses

so we see the title of the youtube video instead of the url

>>9228000
Did you keep any bank short positions?

>That fucking 4 week yield going back up.

Fuck. I don't want to hold US debt for 28 days. Bid on Tuesday at 1.66%

1.64% please. Not 1.665% ok.

The DJA is looking like a modified version of the meme chart, but this time with more dead cats

>>9227951
Yea I need to flip my SLV calls, it looks bad

They'd take out the 2A and make abortions mandatory and impeach my president (not to mention all the lost jobs in the clean coal industry). this alone will just crash the economy beyond any possible recovery. It would be like the fall of Rome...

portfolio is flat and i just took a shit where i had to keep wiping my ass.. i'm going no where today

SPY looks like a double bottoms right now. Is it going to reverse?

feels so good knowing the SPY will NEVER. EVER. be below 260 again

Why the FUCK THERE SO MANY TRIPFAGS ITT WTF is WRONG with stockfags?

>>9228187
don't be mad, tripfags are free money fades

>>9228187
((((((((((You))))))))))

>>9228187
for most of us it is because we are quite active; it makes it easier for you to ignore us if we give shitty advice, and shit on us. It benefits us because it forces us to become a better trader.

>>9228120

>>9228083

>>9228068
this is gonna be more like the collapse of the USSR if we get there. the parallels are uncanny. you have literally the dumbest faggots in all the land running the country via nepotism and cronyism. educational institutions likewise, have also been subverted and made useless. the official state media narrative has jumped the shark so hard that almost everyone disregards it or laughs at it. you have the govt spending trillions of dollars to surveil its own citizens. and legislation being passed to limit dissident opinions and persecute those who act out. meanwhile were running ourselves ragged trying to run all these shitty proxy wars everywhere and keep guns pointed at absolutely everyone. we spend trillions more on weak sauce psyops to subvert foreign countries. impossibly huge deficit etc etc

we USSR now

>>9228187
because this isn't just some shit coin thread where you can yell out some random shit coin and leave, we are here everyday and there is actual research that goes into some of the tripfags post.. welcome to a general

>>9228250
good thing i've been innawoods practicing lately.

>>9228187
I've seen many tripfags come and go. Like Big5Guy is here because he's keeping the trip until big five hits mid teens and tehprofit is here because he foresaw something and had a post with trips. The bear woke up early this spring and he's been here since then. I'm here because I'm a degenerate gambler who's got nothing better to do right now.

>>9228265
i dont think we will get there. theres too much wealth in the world that depends on keeping the scam going

>>9228269
screenshotting, best summary of tripfags

>>9228269
you know.. you really do make alot of sense when you are high

>.< thank everyone
Reposting this graphic because some anon asked

>>9228269
How do you make a living baggie? And if it's through trading, how did you get the capital to trade. You obviously can't be working right now because you went to rehab and are constantly destroying yourself with drugs and alcohol, (not judging, I'm a degenerate fucking drunk myself). Just curious.

USO went up 3 cents! I'm rich!

Going home, cashed out 75% of my portfolio at +7% avg. today. Time to do some research for new invests.

cant speak for baggy but i need about $400 a month to survive when im being careful. it aint hard to pull that out of your ass when shit gets tight

Serious question: Why not just use Reddit?
Or, just post using the trip when it is relevant to. If the post isn't about said prediction, and you're talking about taking a shit nobody really needs to know who you are, just saying.
>>9228221
surely you would get shit on if you gave bad advice anyway, in fact more so if you don't use a trip because people make pink wojack threads all the time crying that they followed some anon's advice. Maybe. Maybe you have a point since stocks are slower.
>>9228319
Pretty cancerous but at least you are honest about it

I'm a transportation broker. I actually am at work right now.

>>9228380
You can't live in your own for $400 a month you have to live with your parents right? I do, at least until I graduate from college.

This current market is absolute trash. I'm seriously thinking about putting half of my portfolio in bonds/gold and using the other half to trade Bitcoin. You can't make money as a bull OR bear in these circumstances. I feel like the big money has already exited the market and rotated into other asset classes. Just look at the volume from the past few months. The NYSE is a ghost town compared to what it was.

When you catch the knife perfectly.

>>9228394
>Why not just use Reddit?
I'll fucking kill you

It's time for the Lunchtime Checkup!

What're you eating how're you doing?

I'm having teriyaki chicken with green beans and rice and I'm up today. Swung UVXY for a decent bit so now I'm just laughing at BKS as it dies slowly.

>>9228394
Truth is back in December we were having bad weather and everyone was nice enough to be concerned so I started doing it and never bothered to stop.

There is if you decide how much currency actually exists. Imagine if you will the US dollar simply going poof and Trump Dollars 2.0 are revealed. US citizens and business all get equivalent values for their USD and everyone else can go shit the bed.

>>9228394
because reddit is a shit site with a shit layout (especially for posting charts), and the site is saturated with a shit community (that would inevitably come in and annoy the piss out of us), and the shit mods censor wrongthink even more than here.

this is a fast thread with a lot of unique IDs. were also playing a game where people coming on and dumping bags on suckers is the norm.

everyone seems to be caught up on tripping being some sort of ego trip (its not, its mostly endless, pointless shittalking). its so that we can pick out the friendlies among the masses for those that come on here daily.

personally, im just bummed i missed the era where physical trading was the norm. theres no better boiler room than here on the net (sans exclusionary faggotry in discords), its just a sad reality

also papertrade alongside us while youre lurking. dont just risk your real money right out the gate. it will shatter your confidence (im still working on putting this back together myself)

SPY is still below 200MA so it could keep going down right?

Jesus I suck at bear strategies. I should just hold my cash, wait for a bottom to buy, and then leave it alone.

>>9228622
Confidence my man, with yesterday's event with my friend it really put things into perspective for me. I'm filled with an immesurable amount of conviction and things just kinda clear up. It really helps.

papertrade for atleast a week, month preferred if you want to intra-day or even swing.

>>9228735
it seems were gonna hold till power hour or close i think

>>9228742
Thanks. I’m determined to make this work. Thankfully I didn’t wipe myself out.

>>9228757
>>9228729
By papertrade, you mean running some program that lets me make fake trades based on the real market?

Any program recommendations?

>>9228069
It's like wiping a marker

>>9228735
if you are not confident enough to buy puts wait for a 200MA resistance break or bounce off 250/251 support in the next two weeks to long

>>9228718
Oh man I want some Gin, Sweet vermouth and Campari now. Sounds like something to get into tonight.

>>9228776
Yes, you have X amount of monopoly money to make fake trades with, usually following a delayed quote. I like tradingview, in part because I use them for charts anyways.

>>9228789
I did buy puts.

>>9228776
think or swim has a good demo platform you can get for free. it has a lot of indicators and you can experiment with what works for you

>>9228776
you can find websites that will give you 100k$ fake money to papertrade with, else you can do it buy hand in excel

I would recommend putting in a small amount into robin hood and buy 1 share at a time or something. the emotion you feel when you actually win/lose real money is a much stronger teacher than paper trading I think.

you're not looking to make money, but make good trades. the money will come later

>>9228776
No. Get a newspaper and scratch paper, then look up their prices and write your favorite stocks down.

>>9228865
>the emotion you feel when you actually win/lose real money is a much stronger teacher than paper trading I think.
youre right. this is huge.

but i still stand by getting the mechanics down and your indicators

>>9228718
Looks good, when I drink I just take some Wild Turkey 101 and top with a little bit of amaretto.

>>9228483
ARKK

Lunchbots are reluctant to buy

>>9228865
fake trading doesn't do anything imo

take a real small amount and open up a starter account knowing it's probably going to blow up you need to feel what losing really means

>>9228907
I just went in full force when I started, it worked for me but I don't recommend it. You can make some dumb mistakes and get scared about making more.

>>9228865
Only real money makes you take things seriously imo

>>9228940
This is what I did. $700 in a Robinhood account.

>>9228865
Robin Hood. Is that what everyone here uses? I see more in the OP.

>>9228958
i did it that way too. but theres no denying i lost a LOT of money. and my confidence STILL isnt back

getting the mechanics down is crucial, otherwise you will panic and hurt yourself a lot

>>9228969
I thought minimum was 1,000

>>9228974
you can use whatever you want anon, robinhood allows free trades so you don't have to take commission into account when learning

>>9229004
i dont think there is a robinhood minimum

>>9228865
This
>started with $45
>turned it into $160
Hurt when I lost $60 not because $60 is a lot but because it’s real money.

WHERE IS LUNCH BRO??

I think I'm off to bed.

>>9228808
I love it straight. It seriously is like medicine. My sinuses must really be fucked for me to be on my 3rd glass though. I think I'll take a bit of my $500.01 profit and buy more; I'm almost all out.

If you start the application process with Interactive Brokers they'll send you a link to download their desktop app you can use to start paper-trading with $1million. I started to sign up a week ago and they immediately sent me a link even though I haven't even put my real name on the application yet. Only thing is the market data is delayed 15 minutes (https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?f=17260)) until you fund an approved account.

Also monthly reminder that I created the name /smg/ because I said I'd remind yall forever.

Where I live, 18th century stone paved roads are literally indestructible. They have been polished to a mirror finish by years or wear, but still stands strong unlike the asphalt shit that was literally laid down 3 years ago.

>hes an "eternal bear"

>>9229122
kek
what youre seeing is govt subsidized union fucktwits who get paid outrageous wages to basically stand around most of the day. this is entirely the result of make-work economics.

you hire a private team to fix the road, itd be done in a week, and for far less. but the govt is more interested in keeping employment numbers artificially high and stretching every project to th MAXXX.

so to answer your question, we burgers DO pay money to fix it, it just never gets done

>>9229250
When you do GLD puts how far ITM do you go or do you go slightly OTM?

>>9229200

I'd argue that cobbled stone pavement is a nightmare to ride on, but generally stone is god-tier.

>he fell for the crashing market memery

did I seriously miss my chance to buy SPX at 2600 again

>>9229122
It's a case by case basis. For instance, you can tell when you hit the MO-AK line because the road quality goes to complete shit in Arkansas, because Missouri has a well funded DoT. But most towns in Missouri have awful roads too, because towns don't generate enough revenue to fund road maintenance through all the crazy shit that happens with the weather around here.

If you just "threw money" at the problem, that money would be wasted for the most part. Plus when you say "american infrastructure" that is a pretty broad term, considering there is 6.5 million kilometers of roadway across the entire country.

>>9229276
>Doesnt know how bear markets work

>>9229285
I wish we lived in a libertarian paradise where there are no roads.

According to my meme-analysis we are going see GLD fall to 120 in the coming few weeks. There some serious shekels to be made selling this rally.

>>9229254
Our local government thought it was smart to pave downtown with bricks from the old baseball stadium years ago, it was hell in the winter when you had to go down the hill

> last end was 2009

>>9227951
This would make losing my gains worth it.
But as someone pointed out, we would need to have a lot of gold for that. Would we hear about the government buying a lot of gold if this were to actually happen? Or do they just wave a magical wand and say “we are now gold backed” as USO raises to heights we’ve never seen?

>>9229409
hmm

alright got like 10 4.50 puts on GPRO
lets see some fucking BLOOD

Might be time to get puts again

what small cap ETFs should I buy if I'm so poor I can only buy like one share of something?
or are small caps just a bad idea

>>9229524

>>9229486
When you use options to play ER's do you go for cheap low time options like the Friday ones? I swore off playing ER's but god it's too tempting

>>9229542
I have one share in VOO. it is a quarter of my portfolio. I am not a rich man.

should I bother getting exposure to the bond market?

>>9229596
if it was a more expensive stock id buy weekly ones and only buy a few.

but since its so smol, i went with 10 of the contracts for next week. when you have ten contracts, high theta adds up (times ten obviously). so i wanted to make sure, even if it holds after ER for some unkonwn reason, ill still catch it when it dumps the next day or too.

that company is so fucked

What was the reason for the gap down?

>>9229599
depends how old you are and what sort of fallback plan you have

my parents for instance are quite rich, i will never need for food or housing etc, so i likely will NEVER own any bonds. I dont need the security they provide. Im willing to ride out the stock market.

https://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Three-fund_portfolio

try something similar to this and buy as you can, remember just because you are 'poor' right now doesnt mean you wont make the same % gains as rich people do when they hold index ETFs. if your buying in Robinhood which has no commissions its not a bad idea to buy VOO QQQ etc as you can afford a share on a per share basis

anybody have BL rn? currently lubing up for the earnings release

youll be ok m8. if all these major companies fall on good ERs, think what GPRO is gonna do when it whiffs entirely?

>>9229672
I like that idea. any tips on what to look for to get international exposure?
I'm young as shit so I should probably expose myself to developing areas more.

I mean you guys get thrown under the bus constantly anytime anything ever goes wrong, but never actually get a compliment when something goes right. Most of the time you get blamed for shit that isn't your fault, but hey, thanks.

You guys should invest in cryptocurrencies, I hear they're doing quite well at the moment.

I don't know whether to dump my puts now and eat the loss or wait and pray for sour hour.

its worth noting at this point that the economy is extremely worldwide, as in your not going to find any other index mooning while the nasdaq/sp500 ranges up and down going nowhere.

I just overlayed VOO with a South Korean and Indian ETF and they all have about the same growth over the last many months, i fyou want international exposure i would just buy a "all world but not the US" ETF alongside US based ETFs

perhaps a 50% QQQ 25% VOO 25% some world sans US ETF as a portfolio would do well to capture solid gains

>>9229762
Argie bills have huge interest rates (starting at 30%) due to inflation. Expected inflation is around 20% (and USD usually follows) so you get around 10% return.
Do note that, in comparison, local stocks were losing like 4% in USD and even more in real currency YTD, so bills is (almost) the last refuge here.
And expect the same to happen in the US if bear market hits.

>>9229788
shit, ill wait until FED hikes rates some more. i already have a savings account.

i might have some if i had a bigger account though. they seem foolproof

hmm

I hope it’s just sellers covering their shorts

>>9229826
I believe you can buy Eurodollar (argie) bonds with normal US broker accounts but they are long term bonds and are doing fuck awful because of both internal weakness of Arg and because of the expected rate hike.

I dont think you can buy Bills (LEBACs) without a local broker account. And you will end up paying taxes too. I will check a bit more.

>>9229180
i actually made it and convinced people to change the name of the thread back in jan, haha.

i really wanted to get some exposure to you guys. even with all the currency problems all are still one of the few cunts in SA thats actually worth anything.

that was a good call bro

>>9228434

you gonna share?

my USO is mooning. I hope Israel bombs Iran and oil goes to $100 per barrel.

I'm never buying options again. I'm unfit for trading like this.

>>9230234
personally id rather see the inverse (iran bombing israel), but i understand conflicting loyalties kek

>>9230234
why would you wish for human suffering anon?

kekking heartily at whoever was dumb enough o just buy like a million dollars worth of GPRO

that anon talking about how retarded most "professional traders" are last night definitely lifted my spirits

>>9230328

Anyone have the GoPro wojak?

>>9230257
What'd you buy anon? Don't FOMO on what the other anons are doing. When they've bought it it's already too late for you

>>9230367
You're gonna need it for the AH.

>>9230308
First of all if it speaks Farsi it is not human, and isn't it obvious that I want to be able to sell my USO for as much as I can get for it?

>>9230423

that's it.

Thank you sir

CRASH DAY SALES DAY

A Y Y

Picked up ten shares of $XOM on a discount today at about $75.50. Dividend record date is coming up here in less than two weeks, should net me a nice $8 dividend plus whatever the share price recovers to (I think $85 by midsummer).

What did other anons buy on sale today?

>>9230843
Still in the green on my atvi, even sold a call for 100% profit yesterday so you don't know shit. I'm just warning the rest of you fags who hold onto GAMING SOFTWARE companies. Not some chink plastic reseller.

>>9230833
thanks buddy

>>9230884
just more TWTR

I bought more options to put Gold and Bonds on people when their prices rallied.

>The Chinese cannot be negotiated with.
They said the same thing about rocket man, and look what happened there. Yeah, it's not 100% official yet, but it's a step in the right direction. Hopefully the same thing can happen with China on trade.

>>9231374
I kinda miss those rocket man shit posts that would cause massive FUD in the markets.

China has lost NK as a bargaining chip ;they can't threaten war unless this is a big ruse

Any tech company calls for 7/20 or later should be held with an iron grip.
I held AAPL calls through the dip this last week, and still holding AAPL and FB.
It's just hot af to hate on FAANG right now.

ATVI gonna unhalt like a popped bottle

I sold my SPY puts. It hurts, but I fucked up and FOMOed in too late.

We can feed the Chinese our dick much harder than they could possibly fight it back.
OUR DICKS WILL BE FORCED INTO THOSE YELLOW SLIT-LIKE MOUTHS.

>>9231144
>30 days
youll never make it
once youve seen the leverage and the power that the dark side can give you, there IS no going back

on the other hand, why dont you try non directional plays and/or covered calls for a while? or maybe trade ITM or ATM options to reduce the leverage a little

>>9231193
buy some cheap OTM calls if youre scared. seriously guys, options are only as risky as you make em

>>9231553
Jesus Christ, can we gas the retards already?

>>9231552
It may test 256/257 level within the next week, but I expect SPY to bounce off of it, just like February and March. The market seems to enjoy flirting with an 11% climb for the year.
I scooped up a few shares of TQQQ when SPY was at 260 today. 2.6% profit already. I was going to dump my leftover money on TQQQ if SPY hit a 3 month record.
I've noticed that "records" tend to be followed by retraces.

Buy or die?

>>9231520
I bought some Jun 01 calls for $GOOG because I can't afford anything past that date lmao. It's paying off though - I think I only have copper hands for this stuff. I can hold through dips but I like to take profits before I over extend

>>9231451
if youre gonna sell em off tomorrow or monday the moneyness shouldnt matter too much unless yall bought the friday ones (that would be pretty stupid)

>>9231589
That's a good idea! I'm going to start looking for something for covered calls. I was thinking about RAD, what do you think?

>>9231626

>loses money on Robinhood
>calls others retarded

>>9231540
just a 200 million diffrence.

so is now a good time to buy BGFV since its down 10%? I'm not looking for a long more thinking it will bounce back up to around 8.50 or so

>>9231696
premiums are too cheap. idk if you use a broker that costs commissions, but commissions on those options would cost more than the premium. go for a more expensive stock that you have 100 of, look for about a month out and remember youre short so you WANT the more expensive ones. just make sure the stock isnt too bullish unless you dont care about getting called away

also protective puts are pretty cool to play defensively

>>9231742
How did I lose money dumbfuck? The trade is right there if you can read. Screen is red because the stock is down for the day I am still up 17% from my avg buy in. Fucking 90% traders who lose money shitting up this board. Goddamn off yourselves.

>>9231696
also remember you can use options to build positions pretty cheaply if you buy the calls on dips

>>9231770
>BGFV down 10%
what the fuck happened? Big5Guy was the king of /smg/ yesterday

Here we go, boys. Power hour time.

>>9231822
everyone remembered they dont want to own a dying retail chain

Okay, thank you for your guidance. I'm going to look into it for a while before I jump in, I don't want a repeat of my SNAP or QD calls

This is a Christian board, please don't take the Lord's name in vain

>>9231833
I CAN FEEL IT

>>9231819
I was wondering about actually exercising options on smaller plays where I can afford the stocks.

Normally I just buy and sell the contracts only

>>9231833
lets go

>>9231815
Calm down anon its obviously bait.

>>9231833
bulls prepped

>>9231880
its pretty cool to build cheap positions UNDER the current price and start UP. if you can buy em on the day of expiry sometimes theyre like a 5 bucks. ive been messing with it. its a cool idea. but i havent been playing many actual common stocks lately. i just have my div holds that im not touching for a while

>>9231833
There's only one proper way to go, men

What is the best way to go about investing in the New York Yankees winning?

What would you guys recommend if I am starting with about $2000 and can buy another $300-500 worth of stuff a month? I'm 27 looking to build retirement as quickly as possible, right now my assets are like half bitcoin and half various companies i dont even remember on Robinhood. Feel like its time to consolidate and be in solid positions but the market is so rangy and up and down I'm not sure if theres anything actually worth holding before we figure out which way the market is going to go

>>9231644
>because I can't afford anything past that date
>some calls
You can just buy a single call.
I'd much rather buy one than multiple on the cheaps.
You're going to experience greater theta decay for that.

>It's paying off though
It's great if you're at a profitable return and ITM rn. That really takes the edge off.
I'd deleverage yourself at the next good opportunity.
I'm definitely being a hypocrite considering my FB calls, but I've realized that it's the fact that options have a deadline that makes them so distracting. You can't just HODL because you're fucked if it dips close enough to the expiration.

>>9231634
I'm sure it will drop to that level, but I bought puts that expire Monday.

admit it, if spx went up you'd have pat yourself on the back because "I said the 5 min could go either way lol i am teh profit"

>>9231972
That's why you shouldn't use short term options -- even for short term plays. When you do, you are timing the market.
I learned this the hard way with my first few calls on FB. I KNEW that bitch was going up, but you can't "buy the dip" with short term options.
Even with a several day play, you really ought to use several month out options

>>9232188
jesus christ youre a bitter faggot. i just like practicing my memelines. trying to figure out whether i should short or sell on the open tomorrow

>>9229485
okay you've got a point, I take back what I said about not posting with a trip, as long as it's kept in this thread. Not like I see too many (apart from OP's) trips in other threads specifically from this one.
