Economy stonks v8, the wrath of icahn

Me to my gun stocks first thing this morning

Get me to November...

Yeah Portnoy pumped SWBI big today especially.

I got a small nibble on that and RGR.
I had been looking at SSTI and WRTC on the full bootlicker index but didnt pull the trigger ;(

 

[brackis1]

Other major regrets: had a look at LTHM when it tanked on share issuance around $6... trading Just hit $9 a few months later -_-

Also had a position in GOGO; sold it and dodged a dip....then it got sold and up 50% today ;(

Yeah more after hrs. Just absolute nuttyness.

I had been hating myself for putting money in FEAC a draftkings backers spac that hadnt moved for 6 weeks whil;e DKing and Penn ran and made me feel stupid.
Woke up to a 20% premarket gain on it and got the fuuuuck out over some mediocre merger

but yet again, why bother with anything besides buying fad stocks?

 

[brackis1]

lol was looking at SDC yesterday but didnt want to buy into a froth market.... CEO buys 10 mil shares and it';s up 20% -_-

I bought SQQQ premarket like an absolute autistic genius and ran for the hills with a few %

yeah, i'm a little salty that i didn't go 100% into meme stocks/calls after calling it out.

but whatever. i've been playing them 33%-50%ish, i guess.

...don't like all (that allow shorting, ie: not rh) offer that?

unless something just changed, tda allows shorting 24/5.

The ones I've been using only allow till 6:30 for shorts. I think prolly cause it requires some level of oversight?

tda allows them at least until 8. i think they allow it 24/5, but shit's more limited after 8, so i'm not certain. tda's been awful, though, unless you like weekly outages.

what broker(s) are you using now?

Vanguard for less tradey shit, Merrill Edge for the tradey shit but trying to switch I think.

Also fucking LOL @ Tesla. Wish I had more short, but I stay disciplined.

lolz, i'm not sure if i mentioned... but the other week, i emailed ~10 people from merill and no one responded.

so weird question (and kinda too late), can you buy samsung with merill? they have a location in korea, so it's supposedly possible.

and weird, i thought you used ibkr. and i think ibkr allows shorting up to 8pm, too.

and lolz, i bought intc yesterday. sold already. and since ~.75 ago, their puts have been the same price. shit, puts went up slightly while their SP spiked. (.39-.42 for the $51 strike)

I bought and flipped INTC today
Nah havent used IBKR. I don't quant daytrade; qualitative analytics moreso and their shit seems too fancy.

i was really disappointed with ibkr. but i thought they were going free/free-ish, i didn't realize they were just adding their "lite" bullshit. i should probably move some funds over and give them a 2nd chance, though. i wish tasty was a bit cheaper, i feel like i'm supposed to be using it, given my propensity to end up in needlessly complex options trades.

anyway... so far, today:

this week's been nuts. i expected the semi volatility. didn't expect it in so many other sectors.

Yeah I made a fat stack today off FEAC.
Fuck that was a wait.
I should have just been back loading GRAF when it was sub 15. Idiot. Oh well.
I'm at all time highs and grinding along.

 

[rob mafia]

although, i'm kinda kicking myself for not opening puts on tsla on monday. i almost did at end of day, but balked at the prices. oh, well. and by the time i checked on tues, it was already sub 480 and dropping, with crazy theta. i have such a hard time playing against theta gang, knowing how often i take retard money...

moved hard on fcel, selling a lot of puts. if it rebounds before earnings, i can probably close and repeat the positions...

Autist call: CCX
Spac was rumored to have a merger like 2 months ago with TopGolf but bled off 10% since then and back to its safe $10 spac entry price. I see almost zero downside since SPACs can return their full $10 if they dissolve, but 20-100% upside.

AVGO has had a nice run right before earnings. Hopefully that continues after tomorrow.
