Sold way too early but I couldn’t watch the market that day so I sold at market open. I didn’t want SNDK to reverse when I wasn’t looking and lose all my money. My positions went on to be worth $657k but I made a good profit and that’s all that matters.
New Trade Opened Thursday!
One Trade I opened for a potential swing 📈
Lumentum (LITE) had a big red day yesterday before market close along with other big AI stocks like Micron and Sandisk 👀
In looking at the options data, there was quite a bit of bullish positioning that happened on LITE yesterday before the long weekend with over $5 million in premium that came into calls with a $770 strike 👀
In looking at where dealers are positioned in the options chain, biggest level is 700, followed by 800 and then 750, showing signs of potential bullishness on the stock 🐂
Using this, I decided to go in with a Put Credit Spread that is a 700/695 spread. This gave a potential premium of $160 and a max loss of $340, so not a crazy risk to reward ratio. Hoping that this get a quick bounce Monday morning and we can take some profit on it 💰
So i just started trading options like just last friday, bought my first call option on $PLTR one contract, strike call of 130$ expiring on the 10th of july. Just to test option trading out first. I did this call cause i been seeing it l hold that 130 line quite well also this stock has been bullish for a few days and it tried to break that strong 133 last friday but failed, still i see it being able to break it next week. Althought i know i might have entered it a little too late as 130 to the range of 133-135 risk to profit is not that good.
I have placed 10k on my account to start and im just rrying to make maybe like 150-300$ per day. Any tips or maybe like any advice yall would give
First and foremost, I do not recommend trading 0dte! If you have enemies, convince them to trade 0dte’s and enjoy their downfall. With that said, I’m looking for advice from some experienced traders.
I don’t normally trade 0dte’s and do have a successful wheeling portfolio, but still a beginner. I was toying around with 0dte’s and went on a good run. I noticed that my sizing increased at times and this was magnified due to impatience. There are alot of emotions to deal with once you open this door. Any suggestion on ground rules to keep myself in check? Thanks!
From 2009 to 2013 I was trading stocks .. Finally by the end of 2013, I was able to do well in stocks.
Then came 2014 and I found out about options .. within a month I was broke .
This continued until 2019- when I would lose every year trading options.
End of 2019, finally made 100k through options from betting 25k on a stock with expiration 6 months later..
Then came COVID.. lost all the 100k within weeks
Then came stimulus ..got 10-15k as stimulus plus another 20k loan for the small business we had ..
By the end of 2020– that money again went up to 100k then lost again ..
By May 2021, I was divorced. My wife had enough . She kept the business which was still closed at the time in San Francisco coz of second wave of covid ..
Got another loan from family.. around 10k.. end of 2021 and now single without any work experience since years ago .. again turned that money into 120k then lost it all by early 2022..
Since 2022.. I have worked minimum wage jobs .. and I have never seen my trading account touch 20k .. in fact .. I would lose it all sooner or later..
Finally now in 2026- I have accepted that my mind is not made for trading . As I can not distinguish between real money and trading excitement..
Lost 2 decades of my life in this crazy endeavor.. I have lost touch with almost everyone I used to know ..
No matter what happens in future - I have decided never to trade in the stock market again . No matter how hard it may become . Some people are simply not suited to trade options and I am one of them. Took me too long to realize .. Now almost 50 years old - my daughter does not talk too me .. my siblings don’t talk to me .. it’s crazy how it is ..
I take full responsibility for my actions and hopefully I will find some peace
CME is seeking to replace the micro options with cash settled versions so they carry no early assignment risk, and also you can trade 24-7
Joey Chestnut Easy 1.5X
Alright everyone hear me out!
Joey Chestnut is quite possibly the greatest 4th of July throat goat that ever lived. There is no question that he is the Tom Brady, Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods of destroying the glory glizzy. He has won 17 times. Most years there isn’t even a close competitor.
DKNG currently has Joey Chestnut at -2500. Absolutely the most garbage odds on the planet. Thats bet $10,000 and profit $400.
However there is a sweet little money line. Some call it the money meat play. The bologna banger. The 1.5 X Bacon Back play.
Joey Chestnut +20 Glizzies = +$150
That means for every $100 you bet on this American legend you are guaranteed $150
Last year he took out second place by a +24 hot dog margin. Thats +20%. I’ve heard Joey is having his best year ever! He’s a glizzy gobbling fool!!!!
Easiest money out there right now. You’re DAF for not going in hard or sending the whole house.
Let’s go Joey! Happy 4th of July!!

What would your guys' reaction be? I asked chatGPT a question "If after 17 out of 21 trading days doing 1, -2.1 credit spread per day, only 1 day was a loss, and 4 days were just no trades. If I start with 1 spread a day for the first month and then double every month. How much $ will I have by month 2, 4, 6, 12"
To which it replied:
At first we were thinking about selling it, before we had enough realtime statistics to validate the algorithm, but after seeing it work as well as it is, in realtime ... we are going to keep it private to a very small select few individuals & only a profit-sharing model.

Basically, I want to test out my entry and exit points, indicators and strike prices before I do it for real. I kmow I can use paper trading when the markets open but I want to train when the markets closed as well.
Bought this before market closed yesterday. Was trying to get 2 of them, but only got a partial fill in my order. But it was still a win for me🔥
I've created an options trading algo that returns roughly 10-20% on your portfolio per day (mainly from trading 0dtes).
Backtested across 7 months, I've finally used it live for the past 2 weeks and it's been remarkably consistent.
Wondering if anyone wants to help me forward test on a paper account and tell me if the edge is really there or just noise.
