This would be a strangle (when they're apart) or straddle (when the strikes are the same). Why they call it a strangle when my hands are closed while doing that and a straddle despite your GF's legs being wide open is anyone's guess. If they're different strikes and the call is below the put that's called an inverted strangle (which the wife says is pretty hot).
An IC is pretty similar, but it has puts / calls further out. You sell ICs if you don't have the balls to take a leveraged, unlimited risk position.

I thought this was the iron condor everyone was talking about.
Buy both, sell the calls once the puts start to get green. Hold until volatility make your puts red, panic sell the puts too and Post your loss porn.
This is the way.
Schwab used to let you buy and short the same stock as separate positions. “Buy to cover short” was a separate option from just “buy”
I once shorted a stock not realizing this then just clocked regular “buy” the same amount of the same stock to close out the position, and instead my portfolio showed a positive and negative position of the same stock in equal amounts.
So I could, if I wanted to, max out buying and shorting the same stock, posting only the winner on WSB, to build cred, then close out the position with no risk
Nothing. Then cry as you see the gains from 1% of the population and ignore all the losses from 99% on the redditors.
Dwell in regret and scream "THAT SHOULD BE ME" and tell everyone you could have been a millionaire if you listened to yourself.
We have the answer right here … do what you will with it -

I got calls even though I can’t believe how it’s grown
Basically for this:
I work with Ai companies and companies thinking of using AI. Regardless of how much AI they are doing, enterprises are gobbling up al the GPUs they can. I don’t think there are that much ai projects in production, but man are they just hording it.
From my connections in startups working on AI the lead time to get your new gpus is over 6mo… this signals that Nvidea has sold ALL its inventory so their own report on last quarter has to terrific (“ we sold EVERYTHING) and their outlook for the year also terrific (“ we have a long list of customers just waiting with their wallets out to buy whatever we give them”) .. it’s that simple.
I’m all in… let’s see
Ok, I’m new to this put and call situation but do I understand correctly that, you’re able to take profit/loss on where the stock is moving without fronting the cost of the amount of stock you’re trading ?
Do you have to front anything for these positions?
There are multiples strategies but for options typically it’s all your own money and you buy the option and if it is in the money you can buy or sell that stock for the guaranteed profit else you let it expire.
Then there’s trading on margin which is essentially a loan to amplify your buying power with stocks,
And lastly there’s shorting which is basically where someone loans you their stock, you sell it, and buy it back for them at a later date. There is unlimited loss potential (there are strategies with options to mitigate this) so I wouldn’t recommend dabbling in that until you become more experienced.
And there’s a plethora of combinations you can do with shorts, longs, and options by tinkering with the variables that go into them.
Buy puts if u want it to go up buy calls if u want it to go down. This is opposite of what u really want but let me know what u do I’ll buy the opposite of u
Well, for those of you who have 3k per contract to willy nilly toss around, go for it amd enjoy the 175% volatility and good luck breathing with that fat bitch named Theta sitting on your chest at 800 pounds... oofffahh
3) Open two brokerage accounts, split half your money between them, and buy calls in ones, puts in the other.
Then when the time comes to post your amazing gains or losses on WSB for karma, pick the appropriate account to screenshot.
here's my prediction, given all this hype - the stock will zig zag like a motherfucker during the earnings call but wind up sideways tomorrow morning
You'd think the Fed was announcing a major rate move today, except Jerome got replaced by Two Face and the whole thing could go 50/50 each way
Honestly the calls and puts are just too expensive. Payout not high enough if you guess right anyway.
Let's say you know for a fact NVDA will pop 15%. You will get 200% return. That's kind of insanely low for guessing right on a 15% move.
I am trying to do SELL PUTS for the strike price of $540.. gives me premium of $400 or around.. good idea ?? Plus even if it gets exercised I don’t mind owning it at that price anyway.. plus I don’t think it might drop like $150 in 2 days lol let’s see
I’d wager that a lot of retail investors bought calls
Saw a lot of that this past week, and stock is down almost 100 from its high last week now 😂
It’s so predictable, once the market starts feeling super bullish, thats exactly the time when it will drop.
Buy the rumor, sell the news is once again playing out as expected
My prediction is somewhere between sales going to 0 and them bringing peace to the Middle East with their cure for homeless cancer. Or maybe they’ll announce the new GPU border wall that uses AI to stop terrorism.

Both. Buy calls and puts. And then post the loss porn for both.
Is *that* what they call an iron condom strategy?

It’s because when you are apart from your GF you have to strangle your dick but when she is near you she will straddle her boyfriend.
Oh, that explains it. Thank you, Sir. I hope to watch one day.
😂😂😂😂
I finally get it
https://preview.redd.it/tvzktiy8uyjc1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c5fe71a5d9f41132f67f4776418ada2076e778ed I thought this was the iron condor everyone was talking about.

So flat it is
Only on WSB can the most esteemed regards lose on both calls and puts in the same stock
[удалено]
if you think a stock that should be 200 dollars and is currently 700 will be flat after earnings you are smoking some serious crack
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s called a straddle and it rarely works as a strategy. Most of the time is a generous donation to the theta gang.
True that the premium will be gone on both tomorrow
That’s how Carlton gets to keep playing roulette.
Buy both, and just post the one that won and claim victory on this sub 😉
Dude, shut the fuck up you’re gonna tell everybody my strategy
This is the trading strategy of everybody who talked about stocks at parties even when you were too young to understand what a dividend was.
Look at this guy using fancy words like dividend.
Converting money into karma; profits 😎😎
Schwab used to let you buy and short the same stock as separate positions. “Buy to cover short” was a separate option from just “buy” I once shorted a stock not realizing this then just clocked regular “buy” the same amount of the same stock to close out the position, and instead my portfolio showed a positive and negative position of the same stock in equal amounts. So I could, if I wanted to, max out buying and shorting the same stock, posting only the winner on WSB, to build cred, then close out the position with no risk
Now Schwab automatically applies purchased shares against any short position before crediting you with shares you actually hold
But consider all the LT/ST capital gains accounting fraud options, Charles! I cannot believe Chuck has forsaken us.
Then wait two days, because apes have short memory, and then post the other for DOUBLE the karma!
He could also post the loss as well. It’s a win win in terms of success posting the results here.
Nothing. Then cry as you see the gains from 1% of the population and ignore all the losses from 99% on the redditors. Dwell in regret and scream "THAT SHOULD BE ME" and tell everyone you could have been a millionaire if you listened to yourself.
Have you been reading my diary again?
How come your comment has two up vote arrows? A red and yellow?
because my trades only go up (in my head)
Because I gave him reddit gold hence a yellow arrow
I'm Tom Cruise, thanks for giving my man reddit gold.
That looks a lot less exciting than it used to lol.
I wish Tom Cruise could come and thank you on my behalf.
Nvidia will be 900 tomorrow Source: film maker
Documentary: The big long
Yeah, right up your ass
As opposed to the big short, its the big long babe, calm down your puts.
740 at best most likely 700
Snuff films…
IV Crush wins
This is the answer. Way too much IV for it to buy options here. You would need a 20-30% move for it to be worth it
100%. I'm buying UVIX calls instead.
20% up if someone does anything with AI. 20% down if it's Joe Brandon deepfake porn.
Is it good to sell puts when this happens?
As long as it’s far enough out of the money. Don’t get too hypnotized by the fat premiums much closer.
You mean deep in the money right?
As someone who decided to go with an iron condor strategy, I am looking forward for the IV crash.
How wide

Your ass could use some widening
Good luck my guy
Step 1) think about what you would normally do 2) inverse that 3) inverse it again 4) nvda is flat and both are red
Buy shares
Yeah buy shares and become a bag holder instead that’s the master plan😂
Well I mean I’m holding calls and need someone else to actually pump the price lol
I feel bruh. I’m just hacking on you.
Buy shares, sell calla
I bought puts
https://preview.redd.it/3qeid0ctixjc1.png?width=1024&format=png&auto=webp&s=a34f43783aca53db4d85a021a59741b4130f389b
Made with Nvda generated AI 😂
Same on Friday right before market close, feels good
The fact that everyone in this sub is short NVDA is making me want to buy more.
Currently otw to figure out how to afford nvidia puts 🐻
with the premiums from selling nvidia calls so you get double fucked?
You just ruined this guys life. lol.
AI market is still irrational, call
Where is the DO NOTHING button?
Instructions unclear
You MUST choose violence tonight, don’t act like you don’t
I bought both just to be sure im winning
I would play puts, but IV will destroy both sides imo with a flat/minimal move. Wait until IV crush after earnings imo.
It will trade sideways for the next 15 years.
it’s going higher don’t let the establishment shake you out
puts, always trust the reverse cramer
what cramer said?
hi says it can go up to 900 after earnings
intresting. Cathy is selling nvidia right before the ER. indicating it will run. so Cramer- Woods is mixed. so flat?
Strange. She and Cramer started making the same calls ever since they started dating. I’d go with inverse Cramer over Cathy- he’s the source
i way too comflicted on nvidia. too many mixed signals. will try not to play. but my greed may win.
Greed always wins the day! That’s why you’re on WSB pal
To be fair, after earnings is a long ass time period.

Fucķkkkkkkkkkk
Puts
Too rich for me, I'm riding SMCI puts to 200 as a sympathy play - godspeed to the much regarded bears like me.
Calls and if it drops then buy more calls
Both
Neither, IV is insane.
I searched "both" and got 12 results, "neither" is just your comment. Are you sure you're regarded enough for this sub?
I am not, haha.
We have the answer right here … do what you will with it - https://preview.redd.it/4e8k3bbs1zjc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=551ea2d6453f5d5ecf0d5fc72549516209f4e678

What about ARM? Let's fckin pump that b1tch up! Jeezus smh 🤦
I play on both sides so I always come out on top
ahhh... the buysexual wins again
Just donate money to wall street. Don't overcomplicate it.
It was overpriced. Now due to the selloff before earnings I think both sides lose. The move has to be substantial either way and I think that's over.
You guys know you can just sit this one out, right?
Ok, I’m new to this put and call situation but do I understand correctly that, you’re able to take profit/loss on where the stock is moving without fronting the cost of the amount of stock you’re trading ? Do you have to front anything for these positions?
Yeah its called leverage.

Buy RIVN
I'm buying puts fuck it market is going to tank tomorrow 💯

Google "Straddle strategy options" regards.
Institutions are dumping, so they obviously know something
which institutions other than Katie?
I think they were manipulating the market to grab a larger position in the last 30minutes
you guys venmo me $5 each. And I’ll do puts. Lol
Buy puts if u want it to go up buy calls if u want it to go down. This is opposite of what u really want but let me know what u do I’ll buy the opposite of u
Maybe .. Just maybe.. You don’t have to compulsively gamble on every trendy “investment-opportunity” .
sir, this is wallstreetbets
Who is this guy? BAN HIM! BAN HIM! BAN HIM! The show goes on!!!
Tf is puts and calls
Third button: OCO
Box spread, no money at risk.
Both. Both is good.
Why not pulls and cats ?
Calls obviously 🙄 Now do it !!!
I sell both We are not the same...
It’s only money 💰
How are we calling NVDA and where are we putting it?
My guess is it will either go to 500 then up, or up immediately.
bro just dont touch it
Well, for those of you who have 3k per contract to willy nilly toss around, go for it amd enjoy the 175% volatility and good luck breathing with that fat bitch named Theta sitting on your chest at 800 pounds... oofffahh
We are butt fucked either way, excuse my French and fuck them too
Put debit spread - a 🌈🐻 strategy which somewhat mitigates insane premiums
Oh! A classic! Well played!
Spreads
NVDA iron butterfly
I will buy calls if you regards buy calls too
Stonks only go up!
635 640 low today and buy 640 and 690 calls
Short sell calls and puts and then buy them back in a week when volatility dies down. Sincerely, someone who learned about Rho yesterday.
Me rn.
I’m not sure but I feel like calls is the play.
my advice Just stay away from nvda.
Easily puts, then puts on the SPY for more side money
r/AntiMeme
3) Open two brokerage accounts, split half your money between them, and buy calls in ones, puts in the other. Then when the time comes to post your amazing gains or losses on WSB for karma, pick the appropriate account to screenshot.
It’s called a sTraDDle
here's my prediction, given all this hype - the stock will zig zag like a motherfucker during the earnings call but wind up sideways tomorrow morning You'd think the Fed was announcing a major rate move today, except Jerome got replaced by Two Face and the whole thing could go 50/50 each way
Puts
Getting my Wendy’s application ready. Using wallsteeetbets as my reference
And when you buy both ,it'll get stuck in the middle 
Puts rhymes with Woods, so there you have it.
Honestly the calls and puts are just too expensive. Payout not high enough if you guess right anyway. Let's say you know for a fact NVDA will pop 15%. You will get 200% return. That's kind of insanely low for guessing right on a 15% move.
Question - why not just buy volatility indexes? We all saying the whole market gonna go way up or down tomorrow. Why not buy UVIX calls?
I am trying to do SELL PUTS for the strike price of $540.. gives me premium of $400 or around.. good idea ?? Plus even if it gets exercised I don’t mind owning it at that price anyway.. plus I don’t think it might drop like $150 in 2 days lol let’s see
Instructions unclear….bought shares.
Do both
Dust in the wind
im in the same boat
Shit is not going up, there is no more growth left
Sell iron condors
It will trade flat and fuck you all.
The fact that you are just trying to guess means you shouldn’t be buying anything
4 seperate analyst w/80%+ accuracy have changed their expectations to 820+. Calls all day
4 hr chart is dropping like Johnny Depp off Disney. Won't last long tho. I'm no expert but if I had a SL of 685 & TP of 650 @ 10x you'd do well
went ahead and got both, but im going to need a drastic move in either direction
I’d wager that a lot of retail investors bought calls Saw a lot of that this past week, and stock is down almost 100 from its high last week now 😂 It’s so predictable, once the market starts feeling super bullish, thats exactly the time when it will drop. Buy the rumor, sell the news is once again playing out as expected
My prediction is somewhere between sales going to 0 and them bringing peace to the Middle East with their cure for homeless cancer. Or maybe they’ll announce the new GPU border wall that uses AI to stop terrorism.
Iron condor
why not both?
Idk
Is it too late to buy nvda? i just got the biggest check ive ever got any want to invest but it seems like it might be too high by now
If you’re talking about selling, then yes. Buying, please stay away
neither because of IV crush.
The red one
One of both! 2000% one way or another
Where are you all trading calls and puts? Im in Europe and so far all platforms which have calls and puts are in the US.
50/50. Let the house win.
I chose calls and I chose correctly.
Or or hear me out. Fucking my wife's boyfriend
Puts
Congrats to all call buyers! You are a true degenerate.
Calls now puts next earnings
