Kudos to @InverseCramer today for the insightful tip. I decided to proactively close out my $SOUN 20250131 13.0 PUT$ position instead of letting it expire worthless. By buying back the put, I sacrificed 13% of the premium I initially sold it for, plus broker fee. However, this strategic move allowed me to accumulate 1 of 7 trades towards earning Tiger Coins, while also implementing a risk management technique. More importantly, it enabled me to prioritize family time, ensuring I'm fully present for my kid's music class & Zumba session on Saturday morning. Profit is nothing if one can't prioritize what truly matters. By making conscious trading decis
Options trading is a versatile tool, viewed differently depending on the approach. It can resemble gambling when used speculatively, especially with out-of-the-money options or high-risk strategies, and particularly when traders lack education. However, options can also be used for investment purposes, including hedging, income generation, and volatility management. The key to successful options trading lies in education, experience, a well-defined strategy, and, crucially, robust risk management. Therefore, options trading isn't inherently gambling; it becomes so only through improper use.
If you bought 100 shares of $Valero(VLO)$ at under $120 and sell them at $135, your realized profit, including the dividend, would be $1613. Here's the breakdown: * Profit per share: $135 (selling price) - $120 (buying price) = $15 * Total profit from shares: $15 per share * 100 shares = $1500 * Total dividend: $1.13 per share * 100 shares = $113 * Total realized profit: $1500 (share profit) + $113 (dividend) = $1613 The total profit percentage, including both the capital gain from the share price increase and the dividend, is 13.44%.
DeepSeek's arrival is a potential long-term challenge to $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$'s dominance in the AI chip market, but its short-term impact has primarily been a sentiment shift, creating a buying opportunity. While the long-term effects depend on DeepSeek's scaling and Nvidia's response, the current dip could be a good entry point for long-term investors, particularly around the $116-$129 range. However, increased competition, Nvidia's reaction, and the overall evolution of AI hardware are key factors to watch. $GRANITESHARES 1.5X LONG NVDA DAILY ETF(NVDL
Nvidia's recent pullback has created a compelling entry point for $Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund(XLK)$. As a long-term investor, I'm capitalizing on this opportunity to gain diversified exposure to the tech sector through XLK, rather than picking individual stocks. XLK offers a concentrated portfolio of leading tech companies, including major players like $Meta Platforms, Inc.(META)$, $Apple(AAPL)$, $Microsoft(MSFT)$, Google, Amazon and

Closed out $TSLL 20250124 23.2 PUT$ for a 100% profit, marking my highest return since initiating options trading. This successful trade validates my risk management strategy, which I continually refine to strike an optimal balance between returns and exposure.

$GameStop(GME)$ Bull Call Spread Current price of GameStop: $28.3 Assuming the investor believes GameStop will rise to $35 within a month Buy a call option with a strike price of $29, costing $290 Sell a call option with a strike price of $35, generating $115 in income Net initial cost: $290 - $115 = $175 Maximum risk: $175 (initial investment) Maximum profit: $425 This strategy is suitable when the investor expects the stock price to rise to a specific range ($35 in this case) but not exceed the higher strike price. Strategy details: Buy call option Strike price: $29 Option cost: $290 Sell call option Strike price: $35 Option income: $115 Net initial cost: $175 Ma
As one of the largest for-profit healthcare providers in the US, $Hca Healthcare Inc(HCA)$ boasts an impressive footprint of 219 hospitals across 20 states. However, the devastating effects of Hurricanes Helene and Milton in Sept & Oct 2024 have significantly impacted operations, triggering a substantial pullback. In my view, this downturn presents a compelling entry point for long-term investors. Given the temporary nature of these disruptions, I anticipate a recovery period of 1-2 quarters. With $HCA's fundamentals intact, a well-timed investment now could yield attractive returns once the storm-related effects dissipate.

I'm impressed with $Duolingo, Inc.(DUOL)$ performance, but I'm adopting a wait-and-see approach due to the ongoing RedNote and TikTok saga. While I've downloaded Duolingo to explore its features, I'm not investing in DUOL at this stage. Best tip to learn Mandarin is to date a Mandarin speaker, unconventional yet effective! What's the adventure if we're fully prepped for a trip? Sometimes, the best experiences come from stepping out of our comfort zones and embracing the unknown. While language learning apps like Duolingo can be helpful, there's no substitute for the thrill of navigating unfamiliar territories and cultures.
thank BC for your post on $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ in Dec! Positioned to harvest premium on $TSLL 20250124 23.2 PUT$, awaiting expiration. Next week, I'll reassess market conditions & consider writing another contract for February expiry, aiming to capitalize on TSLA continued upward momentum.

$Eli Lilly(LLY)$ is experiencing a notable correction today, driven by disappointing Q4 sales guidance. The company's expected sales of $13.5B fell short of consensus estimates ($14B), with underwhelming performances from Zepbound (obesity) and Mounjaro (diabetes). I've learned to recalibrate my perspective on such events. Rather than succumbing to fear, I recognize opportunities to buy the dip as a prudent long-term strategy. Notably, LLY serves as a strategic diversification component in my portfolio, providing a relatively stable hedge against the volatility inherent in my technology and cryptocurrency holdings. This allocation helps balance risk and potential returns, underscoring the importance of thoughtful portfolio construction.
If I had the luxury of hindsight, I'd strategically re-enter the market at the 2020 lows, capitalizing on the unprecedented buying opportunity presented by the pandemic-induced selloff. The prospect of deploying capital at the nadir of the crisis, when fear and uncertainty were at their peak, would have allowed me to ride the subsequent wave of monetary policy-fueled liquidity and fiscal stimulus, potentially generating substantial returns as the market rebounded sharply.
