The blue line is your ceiling. Always was.

>What's the most you ever lost on an options play?
Sir?
>The most. You ever lost. On an options play.
I'm not approved to buy those. I couldn't say.
>Calls.
Calls?
>Yes.
For what?
>Just buy calls.
Well, we need to know what we're buying calls for here.
>You need to buy calls. I can't pick them for you. It wouldn't be fair.
I don't have no margin.
>Yes, you do. You've been on margin your whole life, you just didn't know it. You know what date is on this contract?
No.
>2023. It's been traveling two years to get here. And now it's here. And it's either ITM or OTM. And you have to buy one of the strikes. Call it.
Look, I need to know what I stand to win.
>Everything.
How's that?
>You stand to win everything. Call it.
Alright. 390 then.
>Well done.
>Don't sell it in the market.
Sir?
>Don't sell it in the market. It's your lucky option.
Where do you want me to sell it?
>Exercise it in your portfolio. Where it won't get mixed in with the others and become just a call. Which it is.

I enjoy selling options.

>>54122946
I used to enjoy selling options until i got greedy and raped on dominoes. Now I will only buy calls if i am bullish. Fuck uncapped losses.

>Do nothing but post in /smg/ and follow market news all weekend
>Knew the Fed won't allow more banks to fail
>Thought I learned my lesson from the COVID crash
>Didn't slurp the dip Monday morning

Reminder that the federal government is literally trying to manipulate the markets by spamming bullish propaganda in these threads. This is according to a US congressman.

>>54122946
How do I get into that? I'm pretty stupid but even I've made decent options plays (ie luck)

>>54122910
I suppose they could always learn 2 code.

>>54122923
That's a quality pasta right there.

>>54122974

>>54122981
find stocks you are neutral on and sell write options. don't sell naked calls, naked puts are okay if youre fine with buying 100 shares of the stock at the strike you wrote.

>>54122974
>>54122999

>>54122963
Your supposed to have safety wings when you sell options (eg you have to buy cheaper long options with a strike above your short option strike, if you are selling calls). You shouldnt just be selling naked options, especially naked calls, anon.

Is futures trading the way to go? I've been paper trading micros for the S&P and Nasdaq and I think this is something I could get into as a side hustle with more practice. I considered options as well but I'm too much of a retard for 200 iq plays. Any tips for a noob are appreciated.

>>54122923
lmfao the volume of puts coming in on some banks is getting pretty dark and i'm saying that as a bobo. Tim Cook just got forced to take a pay cut, that's what i'd call a leading indicator.

Calls are for those who have some slim, retarded hope that the situation isn't totally fucked. Puts are for people that dont bother with such a fantasy.

It is very clear that we've entered a new paradigm where nothing can fail if you're a member of the elite.

Tech business owners can't fail. Venture capitalist funds can't fail. These depositors are insured for unlimited funds. Banks can now take on unlimited risk, with these funds, knowing guilt free that their depositors will be made whole somehow, should the bank fail. When the bank does fail, it will get absorbed into the gigabanks thereby consolidating power in the hands of the few.

Rate hikes will continue, but none of the aforementioned people are its targets. They hit the wrong targets. They are still aiming for you, WFH Chad! You see what mess you caused?

Just so I understand this correctly: we start from 25 bps, then jpow comes up with "higher for longer" because inflation is too high. Shortly thereafter, some banks collapse due to their inability to hedge long-term bonds, while being bailed out by the government with relative ease. Now the inflation data comes out and it is as problematic as expected. And from this we now conclude that the FED will pivot?

Can you explain this pattern?

>>54123028
I wrote PUTS nigga, and it had the worst stock drop day in a decade.

>>54122970
Bill your boss for the gains you missed. It's only fair.

>>54122981
I sell cash secured puts or covered calls.

>>54122946
I have just now gotten enough shares of something to sell covered but I don't know how or if I should do it. I might just do it anyway and see what happens.

>>54123056
>their inability to hedge long-term bonds,
Not inability, their incompetence. They had no chief risk officer (i.e. the person in charge of that) for over a year because they didn't want to hire a White guy.

>>54122974
Take your meds, ESL schizo.

>>54123061
same concept just reverse. and selling puts technically does not carry infinite risk like selling calls like you were saying. You should never sell puts naked, nor should you sell cash secured puts on stocks you wouldnt mind holding over the long term- for everything else, you need to buy cheaper puts as a safety protection at a strike below your short strike. You then pocket the difference between the two strikes when your contracts successfully expire worthless.

>>54123115

>>54123155
they really don't anon. anytime one of them tries to come here their posting is so fucking obvious in the way they post in that newfaggot way that you arent from around here. then they get promptly ridiculed off of the site. anyone worth anything and has lurked for a few years can see these kinds of posts. its painfully obvious. like with last weekend when we had that little raid from outsiders when the fag bank was failing

>>54123231
which is why they put all of their hopes into bots. why do you think that retarded microsoft chatbot was spammed so much a few years back? they were trying to calibrate. really the whole "AI" thing is meme bullshit outside of doing grunt work some fleshbot was already doing.

>>54123232

>>54123231
how would someone get ridiculed off the site? you dont need an account, its anonymous, what would force them to leave? why would they care about being ridiculed? half the time its some 4chan schizo berating some other poor idiot anyways.

>>54123223
>Dunno if it's because muh white guy
We don't need to prove this in court, but you come up with a better theory why the job was empty. I sure can't.

>My boss got a job with them (in risk) and left after a month, because of how bad it was, and the shit they wanted signing off.
See, if they cycled through 3 or 4 White guys as CRO during those 15 months that would be one thing. But they had a gap, then eventually got a relatively qualified Pajeeta (when it was too late).

Because everyone can see how obvious their posts that they aren't from around here. Are you being serious? Everyone else that has an eye for it will also call them out, shitting on them, calling them niggers etc. Do I really need to spell this all out to you?

The shit I was shilling on pol 2 years ago was all true shit. Don't know how it is now though. But I find it plausible that it's foreign government agents. There aren't that many people that are that motivated to be that consistently schizophrenic and crazy. Online. Every day. At all hours of the day. It doesn't make sense. It's intentional

But yeah where do you guys think the market's going. Have you forgot about XOM

The absolute state of this country.

I’m sorry I just really need to vent about this because it’s been bugging me for a while. I can't help but feel a twinge of annoyance as I hear one of my colleagues refer to me as a "beaner." It's a term that's thrown around here on the trading floor, a not-so-subtle jab at the fact that I'm a trader in the bean commodities.I try not to let it bother me, but it's hard not to feel frustrated at times. I've worked hard to get where I am today, studying finance in college and putting in long hours to learn the ins and outs of the trading industry. And yet, all I seem to be known for around here is my association with beans. I know that it's just a silly nickname, and I try to brush it off as best I can. But it's a reminder of how easy it is for people to make assumptions and stereotypes based on something as simple as the type of commodity you trade. Sometimes I wonder if I would be taken more seriously if I traded in something like oil or gold. But then again, maybe not. In the end, it's all just numbers on a screen, no matter what commodity you're dealing with.

As I sit here, watching the price of beans tick up and down, I can't help but wonder if there will ever come a day when I'm known for something more than just my association with this particular commodity. Maybe one day, I'll be able to use my skills and knowledge for something truly meaningful, something that goes beyond just making a profit. But for now, I'll keep monitoring the price of beans down to the tenth of a penny, trying to stay ahead of the competition, and ignoring the nicknames and stereotypes that come with my job.

>>54123496
yeah i think they're pretty fairly priced at the moment, they're not that profitable but that doesnt matter when you have government funding so you will never completely collapse

they basically get infinite chances to become a good company, not a bad bet.

I sold my XOM back in January because I wanted to raise cash for a FOMC dip that never happened... Still holding a truckload of OXY though. Like 2/3rds of my account worth. The drop this week in oil though was crazy. I vote on SPY staying more or less in the 3900's until FOMC day.

no, i'm shadowing the CEO + other directors who have shown obvious confidence in the company. I doubt duggan sells his shares for a few extra pennies, but I do understand your point.
ultimately they have a good pipeline of p3 products
>It's a hard pivot. If they liked their own p3 drugs they would've solely done a raise to fund themselves.
they needed financing so they gave rights to another comany for one of their products and raised capital (the 1.05 offering) themselves

It processes and distributes products in stainless steel, aluminum carbon steel and alloy steels and a limited line of nickel and red metals in various shapes and forms. The firm serves end-markets including oil and gas, industrial equipment, transportation equipment, heavy equipment, and electrical machinery.

I can feel my blood boiling as I overhear some of my colleagues using a derogatory term for our Nigerian traders. They call them "Niggies," a play on the offensive racial slur, simply because of where they're from. It's disgusting and offensive, and I make a point to distance myself from those types of conversations. I work closely with our Nigerian traders and have developed a great deal of respect for them. They're some of the smartest and most hardworking people I've ever met, and it's a shame that they have to put up with this kind of racism in the workplace. As if that weren't bad enough, the “Niggies”keep teasing me about the supposed "prince of Nigeria" who wants to give me money. It's a common scam that's been around for years, but they seem to think it's hilarious to keep bringing it up. I try to laugh it off and tell them that I'm still waiting for my millions, but deep down, it's frustrating to be associated with such a silly stereotype. I know that my colleagues mean no harm, but it's a reminder of how easily people can be swayed by false information and stereotypes. At the end of the day, I try to focus on the work in front of me and tune out the noise. I may be known as the "beaner" and I may work alongside the "Niggies," but I refuse to let those labels define me or my colleagues. We're all here to do a job, and we should be judged based on our skills and our work ethic, not our nationality or the commodities we trade.I hope that one day, we can move past these types of prejudices and work together in a more respectful and inclusive environment. Until then, I'll continue to monitor the price of beans and try to tune out the noise.

I think you're reading that wrong. They paid Akeso for the rights. Summit will be marketing the drug.

I don't necessarily think any of this is bad by the way. It's not an outright scam like most biotech shit shilled here. I just question chasing a post-earnings pump on a hyped name that just expanded a massive supply of shares at a much lower valuation.
It's not my trading style, at least. That rights offering arb would've been pretty sweet though, had I followed this name a few months ago.

Buggy as all hell, doesn't give you any info without paying through the nose for even basic shit that's free at every other broker, no real API (it's just RPC and shares all the ludicrously low limits with the client), memory leaks out the ass (to the point a couple years ago they decided to autoclose the client at midnight every night because fuck fixing our crapware and shiet), half the chart widgets are broken and will brick your client if you put them, to the point you can't ever restart the client (it will crash on open before you can do anything), the other half are broken because they don't display the right shit, even the bar charts are broken and not only only show indicators based on the candles currently displayed (so your EMA20 looks different whenever you zoom in or out) but also the candles themselves render wrong (e.g. up candle colored red, candles not rendering at all, random niggercandles spanning 1000x the highest actual value range ever traded on the security, preventing you from seeing the chart at all because it's autoscaled), etc.
It is an abomination as well as a nickle-and-dime scam, and it didn't even have FA at all until around 2019.
The only thing it's good for is low margin rates. That's literally it.

Oh I don't actually think that. I just think it's hilarious if you *were* a shill that tried to blend in with a stock market group and said "cows" instead of "bulls".

Besides, we all know the only shill that matters here is the ASMB stock ladies bot. Those anime girls drive market volume.

>>54123284

>>54124012
Fuck the chinks

friendly reminder paranoia is also a weapon. now back to the stock market. I think we're probably headed back to SPX 4000 tomorrow or it will dump until OPEX.

>>54123910
What stable diffusion model are you using?

>>54124012
Fly-by-night operation that hasn't seen a full bear market yet.

IBKR has been around since the 1970s, is publicly traded, offers prime brokerage services, and is insured by Lloyd's of London.

>>54124062
It doesn't matter what the SPX does, only BOIL.

>>54124031
The lines on that pepe are too thicc

>>54124068
No idea, I just saved them cause they're really cool.

>>54124038
Yeah anime girls are important, noted. I'll pass (unlike ASMB anon) this important information to my supervisor at Shills Co. here in Israel where I definitely live.

>>54123879
False alarm. Neighbor was spray painting. Not dying in an insurance scam today.

I doubles my position at 39.

It pays a nice dividend too.

>>54124128
stay away from banks (long term, anyways) - now that the government has backstopped them all there will be demands for more regulation, which will turn them into utilities.

>>54123445
take the SIE first, you need to be sponsored for the 7 but you can do the SIE on your own. If you have SIE most firms will jump to hire you for a role you can fill while studying for the 7. FINRA has a great breakdown on their site and if you want to work in the field I'd encourage you to check it out. Probably could find a pirated pdf of the material for the SIE online but you may want to use kaplan or similar so you can do practice exams until you consistently can pass at an 80 (you need a 70), and then take the test. 7 and SIE got split a few years ago so the material is similar, just more advanced. Good luck.

Is our money unironically safer sitting in a fidelity or vanguard account then in a regional bank?

>>54124271
Vanguard, maybe. Fidelity, probably not.

>>54123563
is the glass half full or half empty? If you can't figure that out, figure out if you expect it to be volatile or not and then cop a straddle or short one

>>54124209
You don't think the supreme court wants this too? We are talking about potential bank runs. If everything goes to shit nobody in the government is safe, not even the supreme court. After the populace riots at the banks, they'll turn to the government next.

>>54124271
It's safest with me. Give it up!

>>54123734
webull has free options

>>54124271
Do you have over $250k in cash? No? Then there's no difference.

Yes? Then you're an idiot and should use one of the gazillion services out there to split it between multiple accounts.

>>54124209
Welp for starters there's broad public support for more censorship.

>>54124315
I thought this was an SMBC comic for a moment. Top zozzle.

What happens to SOXL when China finally takes back tai*an?

>>54124323
Biden's been doing this censorship stuff with his dhs and fbi for a long time now, on a lot of political issues, and the mostly republican-appointed court has done nothing to stop it. I doesn't make sense to me.

>>54124312
They have the illoominati logo though? Thats some top cult grade security anon. Vanguard is just old english money tier security at best with their ship logo.

>>54124362
Not really, though. And the court shouldn't care about that.

>>54124271
Biden told you he doesn't care how much you have, he will always bail you out. They took every risk away, might as well go to the most retarded bank you can find.

>>54123409
here's a pity (you) try harder next time champ

>>54123362
Anon, to put it in another perspective, I work retail and you can ask, demand or say pretty much anything to me, I don’t give a fuck
I just want your money and for you to go away again

>he doesn't realize 90% of the government both democrat and republican are just uniparty pretending to fight with each other.

How did /biz/ go from being a crypto board to a stock one?

>>54124375
Vanguard is like one of the least kiked financial institutions out there. It's an American company.

>>54124440
"crypto" is fake/gay, stocks are real

>>54124440
I am of the opinion a handful of crypto bros made it and diversified into stocks but never stopped the habit of not posting outside of this thread. And post GME newfags happened.

>>54124423
Not entirely true. That was the case but the trump wing didnt play that game of status quo. Thats why theyre so upset over that Jan 6 thing. The maga people didnt get the memo its all just a charade to make money off stocks.

>>54124440

wtf is going on with MMM?
I got a 6th sense its gonna moon tomorrow.
Ive been eyeing at these lows but of course didnt pull the trigger

>>54124145
risk management is part of it, the other part is that by selling one option and buying another you make it cheaper out of pocket for the contracts overall. Plus you can do stuff like a straddle to just play volatility. If I'm going long stock I'm going to likely either write options on it to profit even if it crabs, or buy puts as insurance against the position declining.

Pee pee poo poo

>>54124477
I've been eyeballing that too but all of my money is tied up in dumb shit right now

>>54124465
Yes, to the establishment, the trump crowd is considered to be a cancer to their plans. That's why they'll never be allowed to have any meaningful level in power within the government ever again.

>>54124529

>>54124440
Crypto volume drops during bear markets and gets crowded out when the real economy has happenings. It's all transitory.

Why does it feel better making money with puts than with calls?

>>54124646
It is at the lowest low its been at in 5 years, if it has value underneath then it very well could be a good opportunity. My personal thoughts are that demand is probably slipping since every product they have can and is being made by foreign companies and sold cheaper. They might benefit from political moves but makes me wonder if their business model isn't in some degree of existential trouble. They also could be a potential merger target. I don't like going long dividend paying stocks if I'm just looking for growth. Long stock, long put maybe?

PPT CANDLE PUT OF NOWHERE AGAIN STOP IT

>>54124675
the problem is that whenever we have a happening like this (bank failure in this case) we get an absolute metric ton of newfags that lurk /pol/ and hear about a financial happening, and come to /biz/ and then end up shitposting here
the majority leave after like a month, but then we get some /pol/ newfags who stay and are retarded, who have never traded and don't understand markets, who only see through the world through a political lens and insert their personal political beliefs into every discussion, instead of a more nuanced profit above all else / 'what is the profitable trade to take?' point of view

Because you know its unlikely the company's going out of business and so it remains one of your "affordable plays" that you can count on as it goes up or down. Some people would call that depraved. But I don't like learning new companies when it comes to trading. Just give me the same thing over and over

Yeah, but they aren't geared towards trading or active investments. I agree they are good for long term buy and hold, particularly for vanguard's own fund selection (although they are losing some of the edge/monopoly there). Putting in orders is just a bit more effort, cost, and slower to execute compared to say Fidelity, and gets worse the more exotic the product is. I also don't think they have much in the way of research tools.
