### Comment: That's what you get for trying to make money off bankers ### REPLY: every earnings quarter for banks, we get the same type of posts.

### Comment: So if the allegations are true, then you think a fitting punishment for a company that has been putting asbestos in its baby products since the 70s and makes 1.3b profit a year is... 66 million? How much JNJ baby powder did your parents put in your milk formula? ### REPLY: So order them to make a 200M fund for victims or something. 200M to one person? that is a stock crash because how many baby powder users are there? I mean actual damages (medical bills) x4 or 5 for suffering ### END.

### Comment: >Nearly half of country has $0 invested in the market, according to the Federal Reserve and numerous surveys by groups such as Gallup and Bankrate. That means people have no money in pension funds, 401(k) retirement plans, IRAs, mutual funds or ETFs. They certainly don't own individual stocks such as Facebook or Apple. http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-americans-dow-22000-investing-20170803-story.html ### REPLY: Faggies expire. They cant count that tho ### END.
### Comment: Shady = good, because you make more money. Cookie + snack companies sell one of the most harmful drugs to comsumers (sugar) and it's made bank. It's why Buffett loves snack + fast food ### REPLY: Sold ### END.
### Comment: I think that’s a really important question, and it really depends on the trader. Everyone’s perception of uncertainty in the market is a little different. ### REPLY: to the $MUUUUN!!! ### END.
### Comment: SPY, QQQ, SPX - some other index options - can be traded until 15 minutes after close. Individual stock options cannot. At least that’s how it works on TDA Edit: goddammit I said this in the post about the 15 minute thing ### REPLY: I wonder how many people here also know most of them trade European style ### END.
### Comment: Can you help me learn a better way to do low risk, high probability spreads? I lost everything and owe $4000 buying calls. I wanna do spreads. ### REPLY: FeelsBadMan ITM or ATM debit spreads like the one in your OP are typically very directional plays, used to capture instant exposure when an underlying starts moving against another trade. For low risk high probability you probably want to look into OTM credit spreads or iron condors. ### END.
### Comment: Ha, I am thinking 270 into earnings. ### REPLY: Aggressive. Although when i bought msft calls i thought 105 was only likely on an earnings beat and theyre there a week early. ### END.
### Comment: Oh god February. What a blood bath. ### REPLY: I chose the perfect month to take my stonk winnings and fly to Chile to live 14,000 feet above sea level and not have access to internet for impulse FD buying ### END.
### Comment: It won’t always, but usually people take profit. Depending on the price you paid for those calls you should be in good shape on the 105. I would set a profit target for the 115 call and when you hit it go ahead and sell and don’t look back. But that’s just me ### REPLY: [Here’s what they are](https://imgur.com/gallery/SwKCBsU) ### END.
### Comment: The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the second best time is now. ### REPLY: We're talking about trading not trees you idiot! ### END.
### Comment: Nobody needs firewalls anymore, we use software ELB and Software Firewalls on AWS, GCP and Azure Even the big boys are moving into it. Game over cisco shit ### REPLY: GCP has serious production issues, Azure isn't that competitive. And AWS logging solutions are totally rachet. On-prem ASA might be out of style. But shouldn't be overlooked in terms of quality. ### END.
### Comment: Ya I’m with you I just wanted to rattle this off while fresh in my head. Need to carve through the Fed operations more. Looking at net QT of 37.8b for 2nd half of July. Credit @barton_options on twitter ### REPLY: Damn nice quality post OP. Definitely, please do a followup on Sunday. ### END.

### Comment: 'Notice anything?' Yes, severe autism. ### REPLY: LOOK AT THE CHART NOT A FUCKING MIRROR CUNTNUGGET ### END.
### Comment: It's the consecutive good trades I want. If I could get two or three 30 percent gains I'd be buttery. But its always 30 up then 30 down ### REPLY: Sell the 30 up then ### END.
### Comment: Just buy enough shares until they give you one for free ### REPLY: I wish this was a thing ### END.
### Comment: The key is to always be cheap, why Buffett still spends less than $5 on breakfast at Mcd aha ### REPLY: I have a bogo card, I beat Buffett's return by 100% at the Golden Arches ### END.
### Comment: That would be retarded, but who knows. It would basically own the world at that point. ### REPLY: Amazon does run the world dude food, pharmacy, same day delivery, and drone programs. What else can you ask for ### END.
### Comment: Title aside, why do their ratings matter? Does their scale of investment make a big enough difference to the health of stocks. ### REPLY: They said the stock isn't worth buying so some people stopped buying it. ### END.
### Comment: My max loss is only the cost of my spread. There is a 1% chance it drops that far, losing me everything. And a 99% chance i make 17%. ### REPLY: You're just making numbers up at this point. All you're doing is redistributing your risk, but over a long period, you WILL lose a big trade and it will eat up all your small gains. You're falling for this gambling fallacy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martingale_(betting_system) ### END.
### Comment: No you buy large sheets of dangerous materials and put them through a machine. Enjoy being poor. ### REPLY: I think you are underestimating the complexity of making cips at nanomilimeter scale. ### END.
### Comment: It’s just Mel Gibson in a tin foil hat.. he’s immune to losses ### REPLY: I've lost $500 so far ### END.
### Comment: You fucking leave $T alone...shit needs to get to 32 ### REPLY: It’ll get there if I buy some puts ### END.
### Comment: The usual way to proft of a bankruptcy is shorting it or buying puts, but it's Tesla so it might go up once they're bankrupt. ### REPLY: True fuckery. ### END.
### Comment: Stock losses are only temporary...FDs are forever. ### REPLY: Tell that to people who bought GE since 2000 anytime except for the 2009 dip or investors holding the Nikkei since the 80s or any company that went bankrupt really. ### END.
### Comment: SEC is going to block a raise as long as this Martin Tripp thing is going on. Elon done goofed ### REPLY: That's just the dumbest thing I've ever read anywhere, and I'm on WSB. ### END.
### Comment: cant steal from amazon stores, at least not this way. Plus - as you say - if you did find a way, Bezos would take you out assault style. ### REPLY: Yeah, so would Papa Elon ### END.
### Comment: Dems have been trying to impeach him since before he was even inaugurated, it's just not gonna happen unless he fucks up yuuuge. A blurb or tweet here and the ain't shit ### REPLY: The impeachment depends on the mid term elections, i.e. if there will be an attempt to impeach, it will be early 2019. ### END.
### Comment: 1% quarterly growth... 148b of debt to 30b of cash...up 3% in 1 year. No thanks. Shit will implode next credit crisis. ### REPLY: Double down DD ### END.
### Comment: Searching google it looks like this has been brought up many times over the years. No impact yet. Not sure there is anything actionable here, as far as trading goes. Something to keep an eye on though, so thanks for posting ### REPLY: If this isn't fake, pease post this data to https://hotline.faa.gov/ so the US government airline regulator can recall Boeing planes and fine them millions of dollars per violation. Posting this to hundreds of reddits does nothing to fix the issue. ### END.
### Comment: Isn't that way less power efficient/lower throughput than purpose-made networking chips that can do everything at wire speed? ### REPLY: It probably does use more power but the computes can be used for other purposes: containers, vms, etc. Switches are probably still quicker in layer 2 (although I've seen articles where where Linux switches with NIC offloading can be just as fast) where ASICs can handle the easy task of sending data from Mac address to Mac address. Layer 3 gets more complicated and usually switches have to use cpu cycles to resolve routing, this is where the Gap is closed. ### END.
### Comment: i would probably eat anna kendrick's butthole. ### REPLY: https://old.reddit.com/r/annakendrick/comments/8yba3o/a_simple_favor_new_poster/ ### END.
### Comment: If that was the case, then it still wouldn't be growing now. Phones and tablets are all still around now. No, lack of innovation for years lead to people not purchasing new PCs and new innovation has spurred growth. Look at any chart of PC sales from Ivy Bridge (around 2012) until Sky Lake / Ryzen (2017) and you'll see where the spike of sales occurred. ### REPLY: Yeah I don't think so... What average person knows anything about their cpu besides i5/i7? ### END.
### Comment: Trading options nigga! ### REPLY: I got kids to feed ### END.
### Comment: lol I bought a couple shares of NVDA at 36 because I thought they had growing revenue from the PC aspect of their business. I still did up until today. You just ruined my bragging rights. ### REPLY: If that's why you bought NVDA, you never had bragging rights. ### END.
### Comment: Maybe... let's check back here on Friday. ### REPLY: RemindMe! 5 days ### END.
### Comment: The stonk ### REPLY: What stonk? ### END.
### Comment: So you posted a post talking shit about the definition of yolo and was autistic enough to label this discussion as *yolo* ..... ### REPLY: On top of that a robot actually told him what YOLO means. ### END.
### Comment: Even With that expiry? Then one truly has to believe AMZN will approach 1850 by friday ### REPLY: prime day ### END.
### Comment: Do you think the Cisco news will help? ### REPLY: i think that already ran up this week. Since 2014, the day of prime day all went up by at least 1%. I'm being hopeful and say that it should do that same this Monday. ### END.
### Comment: Historical evidence shows dividend stocks outperform the rest of the market. ### REPLY: options traders* ### END.
### Comment: *respect from another 30 yo who cant yolo my college tuition money* 👊🏼 ### REPLY: Same ### END.
### Comment: When the oil company was making a lot of money because the price of oil was high? ### REPLY: That, and the dot com bubble. Also the little mini crash with IBM at the start. ### END.
### Comment: if you like HBO you like huge cocks ### REPLY: So.... all of this sub? ### END.
### Comment: Theta is at -.03 ### REPLY: You’re good dude ### END.
### Comment: Exactly. Want a keypad so badly? Get a USB accessory. ### REPLY: What a fantastic idea! Why didn't I think of it earlier? Thanks bro ### END.
### Comment: So dumb but i actually just burst out laughing. ### REPLY: Yeah, it's going to $950 lol ### END.
### Comment: There's nothing wrong with margin, and you're crippling your capabilities without it. Just don't be stupid. ### REPLY: I never said there was anything wrong with margin. I personally know that I would take a margin account, especially a RH margin account, and drive it to the fucking ground, so I won't do it. ### END.
### Comment: Data on this stock is solid and I'm surprised it's as cheap as it is given the phase 2 results for NASH cirrhosis and the other stuff in the pipeline. Got about 10k in stock and, if it pulls back more, I'm increasing position with calls if the price is right, o/w more stock :) I'll see you guys in the celebration thread later ! ### REPLY: I agree 100%. I'll be sure to post something of celebratory nature when this thing goes :) ### END.
### Comment: > But I had stock to cover. Cover is for pussies, bareback is how WSB rolls ### REPLY: Exactly, rolled my way into the homeless shelter with writing nakeds ### END.
### Comment: I do I get ghosted, so I’m switching up my play...err rather adding to it. ### REPLY: This is probably the worst possible place on the internet to ask for advice with girls. ### END.
### Comment: I'm not autistsic enough for technical anal, seeing the future in sheep guts, or other forms of voodoo. ### REPLY: If you're 100% against technical analysis without even taking the time to full understand the theory behind it, you're completely ignoring potentially useful information out of either spite or ignorance. I wouldn't use TA for a long-term investment or even a 6 month trade, I'll consider it in my entries, but it's extremely useful in short term trading strategies especially when scalping and trading intra-day. ### END.
### Comment: You still helped. Now, about iron condors, what are the cons? Can i just make a super wide iron condor expiring in a week and have a 99% chance the stock will be within the range? Therefore 99% chance of profit (evem if measly, a 7-10% gain is something many wish for in a year) ### REPLY: TastyTrade.com > Shows > Where Do I Start Then work your way up to market measures/option jive. Finally theory to practice and splash into futures. ### END.
### Comment: So it's 26k ish a year for the terminal? Do you pay monthly or is it prepay for a year at a time? Is it a software they send you, or some kind of hardware involved? Would you say it's worth getting? ### REPLY: He has it at work or if he is a poor fag at uni ### END.
### Comment: Buying into =/= buying ### REPLY: Can you explain the difference between buying into a stock and buying a stock? ### END.
### Comment: He didnt know you could see volume before you bought, once he bought it was too late and he was fucked. Tried to sell and basically bid himself down further ### REPLY: Prime wsb material ### END.
### Comment: If that's why you bought NVDA, you never had bragging rights. ### REPLY: He can brag he’s American where tripping on your dick is a god given right. ### END.
### Comment: I've invested 32K in the last three years, all time high was $330K, sitting on $220K now. It's brutal because I have my 10 year highschool reunion coming up, got all this cash but live at my parents place scrounging money for stocks (I do pay rent and buy them stuff). Frustrating to look like a bum. I'm still hoping for my weedstocks to pay off. ### REPLY: So you hope to look less like a bum buying weedstocks? ### END.
### Comment: Wow awesome great trade! ### REPLY: It was a crazy week. Just happy to get out alive man ### END.
### Comment: And maybe one day you’ll get to real money too “bud”. 45 isn’t a lot for a portfolio ### REPLY: Never said it was but if you look above I wasn’t the one throwing shade to begin with ### END.
### Comment: Using a laptop for gaming? Filthy peasantry! ### REPLY: Friend of mine bought a gaming laptop, overheats like a piece of shit and costed way too much ### END.
### Comment: He probably just didn't lie well enough when he applied. I know Schwab lets you do equity-secured puts at level 1. ### REPLY: Is there a difference between cash secured and equity secured? I’m at schwab level one. ### END.
### Comment: cuckery is the word you're looking for, jim. ### REPLY: you'd know all about cuckery, wouldn't you ### END.
### Comment: Erin janus huh atleast link something legit lol ### REPLY: Lol bro there’s nothing wrong with her or anything she said It’s all sourced. Look at the YouTube description. ### END.
### Comment: options traders* ### REPLY: yolos* ### END.
### Comment: Wait? I thought there’s barely any risk to selling puts cause you will just end up with stocks if it doesn’t work out. ### REPLY: You sell a put at 45. Stock drops to 35. You get assigned. You're now much poorer than you just were. 'barely any risk' is ASSUMING that every stock will somehow make it back to its current price in a timely manner, which is often not the case. ### END.
### Comment: What RH shows as market price for options doesn’t always execute either. I’ve had to close and try again many times. These are on high volume options and a lot of open interest. I’m positive it’s RH. ### REPLY: Not sure what open interest has to do with the bid ask though. RH's bid ask is accurate, but their 'market price' is simply the average of the two. It's not a promise it will fill. This is how all options across all platforms operate, you can't get them to fill at 'market price' if no one moves their bid/ask to meet you. ### END.
### Comment: I’m continuing to hold on to my September 55s. Certainly seems like it’s on a great upswing currently. If we don’t hear any tariff news for a while I could see it going up to the high 50s maybe even slightly breaking into 60. Then again, MU is vulnerable to any news that might come out about the trade wars. ### REPLY: Exactly! Given the pattern I think it would be safer to just wait until the next round of tariffs fuck it over and Then get back on the ship. ### END.
### Comment: [Pic Related](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CFVLhmJWYAAtOAU.jpg) ### REPLY: Truly the aristotle of our generation ### END.
### Comment: Well alleged, at least to my knowledge. But that doesn't make it much better. ### REPLY: Uhhh no. > Dennis Hastert Sentenced to 15 Months, and Apologizes for Sex Abuse https://nyti.ms/1MYBAmv?smid=nytcore-ios-share ### END.
### Comment: What things do you suggest to buy? ### REPLY: Boeing, before after and during earnings ### END.
### Comment: my point is selling a call won’t add much more bp requirements unless you’re much more farther otm than the put you’re selling ### REPLY: Yep, you're absolutely right (just tried a few different examples to convince myself). BP effect is pretty much the same on a single short put or on a short strangle. So again -- I can't really understand the desire to only write a directional short before earnings. To each his own. ### END.
### Comment: You mean professional traders don't drag their fingers across a tiny line all day like fucking bonobo apes? ### REPLY: Holy shit I exploded coffee out of my face while reading this ### END.
### Comment: If Musashi isn't similar to Masoyoshi then fuck me, right? ### REPLY: Can't tell if you're fucking with me but The Art of War was written by Sun Tzu. Musashi wrote The Book of Five Rings. ### END.
### Comment: Some folks on the team have their own, but they are much more important than me. I share one. ### REPLY: Same here sadly lol ### END.
### Comment: dude i have this beautifully laid out as a pdf and a word doc, but god forbid i try and copy and paste to reddit. Shit goes AWOL. The format sucks, my apologies. ### REPLY: My comment wasn't slating the formatting. It's PTSD like when a Vet hears a car backfire. ### END.
### Comment: $380 ### REPLY: Oh wow. So you're like some kind of liar. That's cool ### END.
### Comment: earning so good they cant wait to announce it, all in on FD ### REPLY: or earnings so bad they want everyone to ignore it ### END.
