$PLTR 20250207 94.0 PUT$  

As a lazy bag holder...

my biggest flaw is not nibble enough...time decay is crazy for options especially those quite distance from strike price if u are small account


So after having thoughts in another platform I learn from the master, soxl Hina, I start to try small first ...

1st sell put was quite stressful as I sell put when the pltr stock move super high while I aimed far below strike price.. means I have limited premium to earn.. ($13 nia...)  wrong timing and the votalitily was used wrongly...


I have to endure up to 800% unrealised loss thanks to the votalitily of reconsolidation of pltr...lucky for me...despite that..the put owner can't assign me  the strike price is far... 

But also thanks to this my margin account become alert as I don't have enough capital to buy 100 unit of pltr at strike price.... I endured 3 nights and finally the put was decay so much my margin recovered and I quickly enter new sell put to test theory during Friday market" dump"...this time using volatility to juice up the put... then aim around 8 dollar distances from the tanked stock price and sell put

..all I have to do wait for Monday market open rebalancing + weekends to decay the puts...



Why sell put and not call? While I haven been assigned yet but theory is.. on top of getting the premium cash upfront to ur account to do other move...if touch wood I get assigned...at least the stock is still mine...not force to give out to others


Disadvantages would be limited earn n margin pocket limits how much sell put I can have...


but hey..I'm not nibble trader...I still want to have easy night rather than glue to screen by seconds n pray the time decay not killing my gain.... Time decayis seller best friend


Ps.. please don't try on crazy votalite stock like nvda or tsla...or during earning period...


Gd luck y'all

    哈哈$Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$與英偉達一樣不穩定,甚至最近更不穩定

      以看漲的方式...nvda政治運動太多...比如deepseek中國芯片禁令等...pltr主要是基於政府的項目...更靜音...但這是我的看法。

      特斯拉確實是埃隆效應……分享更好……另外我買不起保證金哈哈

    thank you for sharing. I prefer puts to calls too

    @Soyabean89 you've articulated my experience in selling $Semiconductor Bull 3X Shares(SOXL)$ puts perfectly. sold prior to deep seek saga, premium was meager! and then suddenly it was 1200% paper lost when I woke up in the morning, nearly shit my pants!

    lesson... learn to use volatility & time decay wisely!

      yup...inverse action of call option...usually ppl go in call when stock tank... sell put same timing..just that the mechanism is different...time is your best friend [Happy]
