Depends on time expiration to option and thus decay being close if expiration is close.

Good Lord people dumping for profits. Guess it'll be a dip buying day.
[Reply]

I guess with the intent of making a quick profit on a sudden dip and not holding to expiration. Like a same day window.

I've only traded options a few times though because I find it hard not to stay glued to my screen watching them.

Just don’t get greedy. Profit is profit and I prefer to close puts sooner than calls. No set percentage gain per say but minimum 20% usually depending on how many contracts I purchased. I’ll consider lower profit if I leveraged a bunch of capital to purchase them.

Both trades closed fully today. WIRE for 10% total after final scale out this morning and CROX for 15% on its gap up today.

Good day.

Need more of these.

Sideways day for me, ended up $100 over both portfolios combined.

Be prepared for ass-rape tomorrow with Biden speaking tonight.

More tweets!

Separate your political bias and investing. I promise you’ll make more money this way.

Only new position for me today was entry on VLRS. I didn’t sell anything today either. Account basically flat.

Have you ever looked at stock market gains per presidential terms?

It’s pretty even for both parties. I’ll try to post later.

I let bitcoin buy the rumor then sold it all. Rebought the dip.

I'm only politically biased when it comes to my money. Trump was a mouth-breathing chimp but I've never made more money than I did during his presidency. And that's not just from trading stocks. I'm admittedly selfish and dont care, all I care about is my family and my bank account.
[Reply]

You’ve also never invested during another presidency. :-)


And clearly you don’t know stock market gains with either party. It largely doesn’t matter who’s in power to “provide” strong bull runs (I also am selfish and don't care who is president and care more about my bank account).

I said it wasn't just about trading stocks, try to keep up. I made a hell of a lot more under Trump than his predecessor as well.

Lower taxes on the rich, record low unemployment and efforts made to keep jobs in America = stock market pumps. Talk of any tax hikes - ESPECIALLY raising the capital gains tax, killing projects that increases unemployment/raises fuel prices = stock market dump. This isn't as complicated as you're trying to make it. But I know, you're the economy expert and stock market GOD so you do you.

Now do Trump's numbers pre-pandemic. None of that shit takes into account horrible things that happened to the country during their tenures. W's economy that Clinton left was rolling too until 9/11...and he was probably the worst President of my lifetime.
