Tough week. Closed a profitable (+100%) ON put @ market on the open and got filled near worthless. Made some money on HOOD call. Lost money on TWLO and EAT call. EAT 185$ call expire next week.
Well done ! I wanted to play it but the option was worth more than my account xD My plan was HOOD, RDDT, APP & TWLO. RDDT and APP were too expensive. TWLO went down. HOOD up. The loss is EAT call (300) + ON put (100) HOOD (200) made for TWLO loss (200). Bought some WAY call (earnings on tuesday BMO). 2 or 3 earning plays next week. Going with TRGP, WMT & SFM edit: woulda coulda well done xD Going to yolo into INLF
I didn't actually take a position on it, but your excellent demo of catalyst based calls has me thinking I should revisit options. Unfortunately, I'm doing poorly so far this year, barely up, falling back into the same traps I always go back to..... Did I ever mention I hate trading? It's only fun when I win. The market gives and sometimez takes it back. I'm losing what's left of my mind!
Yes I owe my returns to 3 plays, 1 trump inauguration (RKLB) and 2 earnings (PLTR, PTR). The rest is just breaking even, slightly losing. I think you’re doing good ! Better than the indexes. The overall market isn’t crazy, It’s stuck within a range. Haha yes, trading sucks below ATH. Would you mind disclosing the stocks you own ?
I sold everything Friday morning, but was (small) long SPXL, ERJ & CNK. The wild swings before that was from DJT with moderate size. It violated my rules, however, and it took some pain for me to snap out of it. Another small one that bit me was REVG, which looked great from a momo standpoint until the tariffs hit, and since they make vehicles it pulled the floor out from under the stock. I got out slightly before the real move down because it was pissing me off. Never let the market prove you wrong!
Here are my 0DTE SPY results. Since February 7th when I started to intraday trade again. 8 trades total. 1 Loss and 7 wins.
