Economy stonks v24, snakes in the ukraine

mad at myself for selling my baba calls yesterday

but doing well enough today, anyway. could have timed some calls a bit better, but whatev.

honestly, i feel like i could just sit back and wait for a big green day/the fear&greed index to hit neutral/greed and just sell some way otm 2023s/2024s and sit back some more. my biggest problem is a lack of margin at my disposal for being almost entirely in options. should probably sell some leaps and convert to shares... just in case i need the mobility
 
I'll be shorting if VTI index hits 225 (3% up from here) heavily and tactically now on a few

it's been a solid move recently.

the flipside is fed uncertainty is now basically certainty... and the war's gotta end sometime. as much as i keep hearing fud about earnings, it seems like guidance is still expected to be pretty killer for most.
 
I'm 99.999999% certain I've never held a stock that's gone up 37% in one day like BABA has. This is not a stock for the squeamish lol.
 
My only regret was not switching to SPY calls once the dump happened. Figured pretty fast this was a nothing burger dump. Rate hike as expected, no real alarm bells world news as such.

Where from here I dunno, I may sit it out 2moro with two big pumps. Hoping for one more big pump and I'll likely switch PUT's. IV crush though.
 
jesus the KC I "scalped" for 10% went up over 100% in like 24 hrs fml
 
thinking that maybe i should NOT have sold 2023Cs ($10) on tmc.

lolz
 
I wimped out scalping CDE and shorting KC at 6.15 lol. I'm up slightly for the day but weird ass market I dont wanna be in either way lol.
Gonna try to sit here and wait for some company specific activity I can find.

@Pride23 I wish I had put a bunch on LMND it's up huge!

Likewise, I wish I did as well. Have been holding a decent amount of cash in case of another leg down. If I didn't have so much already in the market I would have picked up more and some other positions as well. Reality is many of these tech companies are just over sold. If you can ride out the volatility you will see some nice returns over the next 24 months imo.

I'm not sure about that, but 38% on commons in 2 days from time of your post is multiyear performance in itself.

Yeah 38% for 2 days anyone would take. I think 100%+ for many over the next 24 months is very plausible though. Lmnd was just unique though with its scenario.
 
jesus STNE was under 10 bucks and I didnt realize earnings were today... sold for a scalp....up 28% after hrslol
 
Made no plays today. Triple top on SPY. Hoping we go up tomorrow to begin shorting some garbage stocks. NKLA looks an obvious short. It's going straight back down to $6-$7. Free money lulz
 
Tomorrow's OpEx, and it's a quad witching.
I'm sitting this one out and watching from the sidelines, I've had enough fun this month.
