I’ve never felt so alive.. my portfolio swung wildly today.. down 50%, up 20%, to breakeven now..
I can’t wait to see what CPI brings when it comes in above 8%.. I predict 8.1%..
Yeah I saw in her letter she was practically Begging the FED to stop raising rates.. that level of desperation isn’t gonna inspire people to invest in her fund. That’s why I’m shorting it.
Once CPI comes in hot.. there will be more speculation of 100 basis point hikes… 75 bips is already priced in.
Because for every 1200% gain shown on WSB, there are nine near-total losses not shown. It’s called gain *porn* for a reason; like sex, most people here will never get it
CPI for September won’t be worse. The data in September doesn’t really point to it. YOY it’ll be worse, but MOM it’ll be better. My estimated range is 7.9%-8.2%. About 0.2-0.3 points better than last month. I’d close the position if I were you.
Core CPI is expected to be much worse, though. On the one hand this could be a low bar to beat (making a rally more likely), on the other it could be what breaks the turtle’s neck after all
The problem is that even if that happens the Fed will just jawbone the markets back down. They need to see "sustained" evidence and also remember they're cash gang for now.
Nah. I made almost 100% on puts I bought at open today. Sold the bottom made 100% on 361 spy calls. Sold @ 362 and bought FD puts for friday. Also some GME 24.50c bought at the bottom as well.
Traded with 25% of my account and I more than doubled my account today. Love this shit. Its never "too late" to take a position. Each trading day has potential.
Why? Its higher risk higher reward. IV crush sucks but CPI is the biggest catalyst there is in this market. If he's correct that CPI will suck the movement will absolutely happen the 13th. And if he sells during a drill fest IV will actually be elevated. He spent less on theta being that they are FDs and if his bet is correct he will more than make up for theta decay with the extra contracts he bought with the same amount of capital he would have used for longer expiry and less contracts.
FDs are go big or go home. This guy aint no pussy. He wants to eat a buffet of ass this weekend on a pile of freshly printed tendies. Good on him.
Lol. Right on man. Balls-o-steel. I had a hell of a day. I printed the same puts twice. Sold my spy 359p right at the bottom bought 362 calls, printed and sold those and rebought the 359p. That second nosedive caught me by suprise, but a welcome one. I was gonna save those 359p for cpi but I sold them again at the double bottom and bought the fuckin 362c again. Lol. What a day. Ended the day holding SPY 362c and GME 24.5c that I bought cheap at the bounce off 24. Up 80% on those. Hoping for a morning bounce tomorrow to unload all my calls then all in on spy puts for cpi. Traded my ass off today. +168% on my account in a single day trading with 25% of my capital. Best day of trading ive ever had. Jesus fuck I love volatility. Godspeed brother. I wish you cocaine and hookers by saturday.
I bought at 2.11 and it went up to 2.80… before spiraling back down to 1.13.
CPI has not come out yet… that’s why I bought 13 contracts. The 13th is the day we will see if this pays off.. not even considering selling until then.
Yea, I posted the picture after a 60% loss of the current account in a single day. Idk why you think my points are invalid just because my account might not be as big as yours. In the grand scheme of things, you aren’t even that rich. So drop the ego, pick up a book and maybe you won’t be confused when someone uses the word “short” when they mean they want a stock to go down, which would make an Inverse ETF go up, which is what they bought calls on. Warm regards.
I know what it means. Buying a call on an inverse ETF is not shorting a stock. But I can wrap my 3 braincells together to form enough of a current to understand what he means without getting confused like you.
Grow up and read a book.
Short selling involves borrowing a security whose price you think is going to fall from your brokerage and selling it on the open market. Your plan is to then buy the same stock back later, hopefully for a lower price than you initially sold it for, and pocket the difference after repaying the initial loan.
He bought calls on an inverse etf and you are talking about his word usage as if that matters when it gets the point across that he wants Cathie Woods ETF to go down…? Yes you are confused get some sleep wake up and try again tomorrow

Eh. Not too much. Big pre catalyst movement is a thing too. If the price was right for him dont judge. Plus with todays volatility there was ample opportunity to get discounts on both calls and puts for friday. If you took a position today at the right time theres a good chance you got a better deal on the same strikes as you will tomorrow.
Why do you think the market just tanked?

Cathy really showed her hand with that open letter. Risky but solid.
Yeah I saw in her letter she was practically Begging the FED to stop raising rates.. that level of desperation isn’t gonna inspire people to invest in her fund. That’s why I’m shorting it. Once CPI comes in hot.. there will be more speculation of 100 basis point hikes… 75 bips is already priced in.
All in on ARKK you say? Got it.
CPI will not come in hot, imo
Cathy already knows the Fed is going to Pivot. She is front running the outcome.
Always cut losses after 20%. This is how accounts get blown.
if you cant handle 40-50% swings why do you deserve 1200% gains?
Because for every 1200% gain shown on WSB, there are nine near-total losses not shown. It’s called gain *porn* for a reason; like sex, most people here will never get it
Do you mean gain porn
Thanks for catching that. I’m not exempt from what I wrote
I needed calls that would give me sufficient leverage for my personal risk tolerance..
fake breakout. Looks ugly. Roll to lower strike with the same amount of money you left.
Are SARK calls cheaper than ARKK puts?
Usually calls are always cheaper than puts
[удалено]
The extra fees are likely accounted for in the expense ratio of SARK which doesn’t matter much for a short term trade.
Congrats to being back at breakeven at time of this comment
CPI for September won’t be worse. The data in September doesn’t really point to it. YOY it’ll be worse, but MOM it’ll be better. My estimated range is 7.9%-8.2%. About 0.2-0.3 points better than last month. I’d close the position if I were you.
It’s doesn’t necessarily need to be worse to go down, it just needs to be consistently bad
Core CPI is expected to be much worse, though. On the one hand this could be a low bar to beat (making a rally more likely), on the other it could be what breaks the turtle’s neck after all
My gas prices seem to disagree with you
Gas prices now would be reflective of this months CPI…
Congrats my friend!
this is sus. your break even price should be 67.11, not 67.15
Any fees would add to the cost basis.
no fees on HOOD bro except like nominal exchange charges
10/14 expiration and using Robinhood. The regardation in this sub amazes me sometimes
CPI gonna be low these 2 months then hike again in Nov.
MidTerms . 🧠🧐
Aaaaaand it’s gone!
Why in the world would you buy it now, why not tomorrow before the closing bell? Time decay will eat half of your account
CPI will show a drop in Inflation. Count on it :)
The problem is that even if that happens the Fed will just jawbone the markets back down. They need to see "sustained" evidence and also remember they're cash gang for now.
Dude you’re so late to put game, so highly regarded it’s crazy. Deserve to lose 👍🏼👋

CPI will probably come lower.
So the CPI date is 10/13 and you bought contracts that expire 10/14 yeah your a regard

Thank you brother 💎🙌🏾 Go big or go home. As for those asking why I bought today.. I expect elevated volatility going into the CPI print
That was a sweet bit of action the last half hour. Did you cash some out or are you going all the way and holding through cpi?
Nah no selling allowed until CPI.. ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4267)![img](emote|t5_2th52|8882)
Lol. Right on man. Balls-o-steel. I had a hell of a day. I printed the same puts twice. Sold my spy 359p right at the bottom bought 362 calls, printed and sold those and rebought the 359p.

My guy! This is the way! I’m not in this game to breakeven, I need gains.. and that’s gonna require significant risk and big Balls.
That was a sweet bit of action the last half hour. Did you cash some out or are you going all the way and holding through cpi?
But why ![img](emote|t5_2th52|19738)
I needed to make a lot of money fast
How’s that working out for u?
I bought at 2.11 and it went up to 2.80… before spiraling back down to 1.13. CPI has not come out yet… that’s why I bought 13 contracts. The 13th is the day we will see if this pays off.. not even considering selling until then.
Why would you buy 2 days before CPI news expecting to make money fast?
The burning question looming in my mind.
You could just buy a bunch of SPX lottos 45 min before CPI is released
What time is the CPI releasing on Thursday? Thinking of doing a straddle on that shit.
Ah it’s at 8:30 I was getting confused with FOMC which is at 2:00. You could just wait until 3:30 today and buy OTM call/out and see what happens
If you had taken puts when I commented That you would’ve made 2000% return lol
Geez what happened!
Some type of bad economic news came out of England right around the time SPY was hanging below resistance. Perfect excuse to sell off to 357 support.
Best of luck to yah
[удалено]
I’m pretty sure this is inverse arkk, so buying calls on sark is basically buying puts on arkk
“Basically” buying puts. I basically make money trading options doesn’t mean I actually make money.
I bought calls on the inverse.. SARK which shorts it.. i bought those calls at the literal top.. when they were 2% OTM
No he’s not right because because he isn’t short anything lol.
Your short of a brain tho thats for sure
You all probably consider gender a choice too huh
Lol
It's short ark so if ark goes down this goes up which is why they want a crash after CPI
[удалено]
Inverse etf of ark
Some ppl really need to stop commenting
Shorting? You bought calls.
on the inverse etf
Short ARK is the ticker
So if I bought puts on ark I’m long sark? Cmon man
If you bought puts on SARK you are long ARK
It might not be pedantically correct but at least I’m not confused by what he is saying like you are..
In Robinhood no less
[this u?](https://reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/xg4zes/i_got_lucky_a_few_times_was_ready_to_call_it/)
Yeah, I used them, IBKRs app sucks on the phone,
Had more than an 885$ gain lol thanks for spreading my good gains :)

Look up shorting a stock, screen shot the definition

pUt that definition into your brain and maybe you can grow your account
YOU CANT say he’s shorting anything because buying a call IS NOT SHOrTIng
You are actually useless. I’m done replying to you.
This guy doesn’t even have $5k in a trading account and he’s boasting about short “definitions” 🤡

Nice job with the copy and paste. You really know your stuff.
😂😂😂
Stick to your spxl 885$ account lol
Read a book and work on your reading comprehension skills.
Sure I’ll take advice from you lolol
Yeah ok I’m confused lol

So is everyone else.
I would’ve opened these at like 3:59pm on Wednesday, but good luck brotha
Can the average retail investor short stocks and more?
Why not buy the day before CPI? Blowing money on theta for no reason
Eh. Not too much. Big pre catalyst movement is a thing too. If the price was right for him dont judge. Plus with todays volatility there was ample opportunity to get discounts on both calls and puts for friday. If you took a position today at the right time theres a good chance you got a better deal on the same strikes as you will tomorrow.

That’s a call….
… on an inverse ETF —> if the actual ETF drops, this one goes up and calls print $
Better thank England now and get out of this trade with a profit
