CL

This kit is 6400CL32. Runs great at 6000CL30. But the actual 6000CL30 kit is [$799.99](https://www.newegg.com/patriot-memory-viper-venom-64gb-ddr5-6000-cas-latency-cl30-desktop-memory-matte-black/p/N82E16820225339).

How much is a 64GB DDR5 6000CL30 RAM today?

CL is definitely one of the better weedcos imo. Wish I'd sent it all on them instead of splitting it with tilray.

CL can for sure hit 10. GTI to 100 would be wild.

I think he's talking about CL (Colgate) which is $78.

zapembarcodes

This doesn't make sense, unless you're selling a deep ITM put. CL futures are pricing at around 58-59 right now. You can get 1.90 per contract if you're selling at or near the money. Margin requirement (on CS) is about $6k per contract.

This is approaching demented levels. I've bought Patriot Viper Venom 2x32GB DDR5 6400MHz CL32, DIMM (PVV564G640C32K) for $205 (without tax) on 31st of January 2024. That's double the RAM with roughly the same performance for less than half the price...

aaaaaaaaaaa999999999

CL30 6000mhz was seen as the sweet spot for value/performance on RAM but corsair is also “name brand” so it’s more expensive than the current cheapest CL30 6000mhz. Cheapest is silicon power at $335ish dollars (which is still absurd) seeing as I got a set of the exact same spec ram for around $90 earlier this year

Puts on CL

Plenty-Helicopter459

For me Q42024 earnings trades (Jan-March 2025) had more big moves than the other earnings seasons. Profitable overall, but better profitability with Q1-Q3 earnings trades. 0 DTE short strangles (8-16 delta) were profitable for the year and REALLY profitable in April / May. Started playing around with 1DTE strategies. I think because there is so much focus on 0DTE that it may be easier to find an edge in 1 DTE plays. Still experimenting and backtesting to get comfortable with a clean strategy. And I was messing around with futures short strangles (ES / NQ / CL) during liberation day and learned a very big lesson. I ignored my stop-loss because I thought the policy was crazy and everyone would come to their senses - and got my first margin call in over 30 years of trading. Small, high-risk trading account, so not life changing. But mr market definitely took me to school. Will never happen again.

zapembarcodes

>royally fucked one day with months or years of profit gone in an instant. That's because most people -- including yourself, apparently -- are *silly*. It's very simple. If you're going to sell puts, make sure it's on a company (or better yet index fund) *you want to actually own*. Now, if you are *silly* and want to own a fluffed up meme stock like MSTR, hey, more power to ya. But don't be surprised when you then get assigned on shares after the stock plummets 25% and you're stuck selling CC's below your cost basis for months or years... Nobody to blame but yourself for that. Those "juicy premiums" come with a high cost. Or you could do what I do, and just sell credit spreads. **Defined risk**. "Most beautiful words. The best words" as the pompous dotard would say. But yes, indeed, I sleep quite alright. I used to wheel MES futures (it's like SPY) until I realized credit spreads on ES/SPX are just better in every way, especially because it's defined risk. I also sell on GC, CL, ZB... I mostly just sell premium on futures nowadays, all credit spreads. I also sell as high as 120DTE sometimes, but these are usually larger positions that I only enter selectively and very far OTM. Lately, the market's been a bit skittish so I've been happy with small, low risk weekly trades. Returns have been smaller but I'm loving the low risk. Anyway, if you want to keep risk extra small, just sell weekly credit spreads and make sure you're comfortable with your max loss. Roll at 1-2X if you must. You'd be surprised how those little "checks" add up. It's really not that hard.

I can always find a cynical side to things. Gift or curse, idk. But, if some new money coming into the space, right now, prices can’t be better. Low volume, hemp, and fear to drive it down. Really good time for new money to come into the space at these prices, ya know? CL seemed to finally bump, and even TL leveled off of sorts, and um, big buys. Almost like something wrapping up. I truly don’t know nothing from nothing, except what the years have taught me. But just for fun, I think tomorrow could be good. But happy with flat.

Sold my oil futures calls yesterday after that rally. Bought back in with longer dated calls just now after today's drop. Between Russian sanctions and india winding down purchases in December, US/Venezuela conflict, and Iran water crisis there is an increasing likelihood of oil moving higher.  According to GROK summary here's the estimated price increase and probability of it happening. Baseline - no major escalation and india gradually winds down 1-5% upside 50% probability  India cuts + Venezuela sanctions tighten 10-15% upside 40-50% probability  India cuts + Venezuela/us military conflict 20-30% upside 20-30% probability  Hormuz closure + regional conflicts + US/Venezuela conflict 40-50% upside <20% probability  Postion - december 16 62$ calls in CL futures.

LittleBoy1954

"build a strategy: Yes. I have a strategy in my trading plan that works. I tweak it every so often but not by much. "and blindly follow it without any additional support or indicator." That's right no technical analysis indicators. MA, MACD, RSI, Bollinger Bands, Keltner Channels, Gann, etc. However I do use a lot of fundamental analysis. I do that starting at 8:30AM (ET) by: Reviewing Asian markets activity (they're closed) Reviewing European market activity (they're mid day) Reviewing morning Economic Indicators (ADP, CPI, etc.) Reviewing AM earnings releases Fed upcoming activity Morning political activity and, especially, Morning futures market activity (e.s ES, YM, NQ, DX, GC, CL etc., ...and a few more things. By 9:30AM (ET) I'm ready to begin trading SPX 0DTE options. I generally let the market open for a 10-15 minutes and let it settle down. Then I look at Expected Move, IV, IVR and IV% and jump in with a Call and Put credit spread. Looks like a lopsided iron condor but in fact I trade the spreads separately. Some days the spreads are 1SD away from the money other days closer to 2SD. That's it.

incase anyone think this is buy the dip, S&P is only carried by big tech and AI. for a more accurate representation of how much more it will go down look at IWM, support is at 220. the 490 S&P stocks will continue to go down till end of the year. look at some of the big names like CL KMB are down 40% from ATH, the rest of the stocks will follow the massive correction

Ok-Replacement9595

Gahvynn

I knew a guy that worked in an oil and gas, he would tell me the strategy the execs were taking (in terms of long/short CL and BZ various contracts out to a year or so out). From early 2022 to early 2025 they were wrong super majority of the time, even not considering the war in Europe. It’s a publicly traded company but they don’t break out their trading in their reporting, they just call it hedging and show the PnL on that, but listening to the trades it’s wild. FWIW many top experts have been wrong, it’s easy to look in retrospect and say what went wrong, but at the time many were confident.

SDirickson

No, the technical definition has nothing to do with any of those. It's right there in the CBOE's Service Mark Registration for "LEAPS": "Option Market Services; namely, facilitating the trading of options of extended length on stocks and stock indexes in Class 36 (U.S. CL. 102)." "extended length" has come to be widely accepted as being "more than one year", though the registration doesn't actually quantify it.

I recently sold a bunch of crap out of my garage. I put it on EBay and sold that stuff in two weeks. I don't need the money. I just don't like the idea of throwing it all away. But right now? I bet there's a lot of people trying to scrape up some cash. Boomers are downsizing. They are throwing shit on EBay. I had tried to sell all of it on local markets (CL/FBMP) first but there just isn't a market like EBay has. There were no takers, even at half the price I sold that shit for on Ebay.

angelcoal

Think about it this way: You have set aside the cash to purchase the shares at the strike you sold. Since it is a put, the worst case scenario is that the stock goes to 0----so you would be using the cash you set aside to buy a stock that has no value----can't go below zero ( and yes I remember /CL going negative). No matter what, you won't "owe" more than the cash that secured the put.

BYRN earnings: Net revenue for Q3 2025 grew 35% year-over-year to $28.2 million from $20.9 million in Q3 2024. The year-over-year growth was largely driven by strong dealer and chain store sales tied to Byrna’s expanding retail presence, the success of new marketing initiatives, and broader brand adoption. Web traffic began to build late in the quarter and has continued into the fourth fiscal quarter of 2025 (Q4 2025), supporting stronger e-commerce activity. Gross profit for Q3 2025 increased to $16.9 million (60% of net revenue) from $13.0 million (62% of net revenue) in Q3 2024, reflecting the strong increase in sales. Gross margin performance reflects the changing channel mix, which saw much stronger dealer sales, as well as one-time startup costs associated with the Compact Launcher launch and associated manufacturing ramp-up costs. Since its launch in Q2 2025, the Compact Launcher (CL) has achieved faster production yield improvements compared to previous product releases. Byrna anticipates that CL margins will continue to grow as production volume increases and manufacturing processes become more efficient. Operating expenses for Q3 2025 were $14.1 million, compared to $12.2 million for Q3 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher variable selling expenses, and increased discretionary marketing spend to support growth. Net income for Q3 2025 was $2.2 million, an increase from $1.0 million for Q3 2024, driven by an overall increase in product sales and operating leverage.

My rule for puts is never place a put on a stock you don’t want to own. In the case of CL it’s a Morningstar 4 star rated stock and switches to 5 star at $70.40. It’s a consumer defensive and if you think that the tech train is about to slow down it’s not a bad play in the low 70s. Exciting No but I’m way past looking for exciting in my investments. Doesn’t look like it will hit 76 by tomorrow so I’ll make $700 for 4 days. I’ll take it even without the dividend. 🙂

Substantial_Team6751

CL just looks horrible for selling puts. It's been going down, down, and down. I'm not sure I would have risked a put on CL On a stock that is moving down, you could also sell a call spread hoping that the stock drops a bit right after the ex div date.

LittleBoy1954

Everyday. For example this morning (8:30 AM (ET)) equity futures are up i.e. ES, NQ and YM (so is Gold and Oil (GC & CL.)) No major economic announcements today, so I'll be looking for an up day and, at 9:30, will trade accordingly. Slow and steady is my method. As the saying goes Bulls Make Money, Bears Make Money, Pigs Get Slaughtered.

what's worse? breaking even at INTC after a decade? or seeing quality stocks like CL, MKC, KMB, PG going on a 52-week low from 0 catalyst

This change is a step in the right direction. The H1B needed serious overhaul. If you were a bachelor degree holder not from SG or CL, your lottery odds ranged from 8% in 2023 to as high as 22% in 2020 (it was 17% this year). In 2024, the average cost for a company to just apply for a first time holder was about $9400. So companies were already paying on average $45k to $110k for one successful petition. Another option was to simply award spots based on salary, but that is also ripe for abuse.

What do we think about CLX and CL? Both seem undervalued and both beat their earnings expectations

sprakes_

Thanks for the feedback. Mods have flagged this as potential pump and dump. Untrue, I've done a lot of research into this and I have 30k shares. But it doesn't mean I'm right. I'm glad someone else has been following this stock to check my ass. Here is my math and reasoning from last quarter earnings. I used the average of the growth rate of revenue AND production (which was a limiting factor previously, they were capped at ~27k units per 3 months if you recall, and one of the big things their COO did was expand production) Launcher units produced per Q for each Q from 3/30/2024 - 7/10/2025: `27k, 27k, 54k, 72k, 72k, 68k*, 64k*` In my notes I wrote that the boost in production for 12/10/24 and 2/7/25 Qs was to stockpile the Byrna SD in preparation for reconfiguring their fabs to produce the CL. The last two numbers are including about 50% of their production dedicated to CL production. Byrna stated in their Q2 2025 earnings that the CL has "better margins" than their other offerings, and that revenue increased by 41% YoY, and that the CL was a primary driver of growth. Those were the factors I used to draw my assumptions: 1. The CL was a significant part of new revenue 2. Gross profit margin of the CL is higher than the overall company margin of 62% 3. The SD and LE launchers are an even mix of the remaining launchers First, the simple revenue ratio of CL to (SD+LE) = 549/((479+379)/2) = 1.2797 Furthermore they confirmed it also has a higher profit margin. the (SD+CL) was 60% == $257 profit, and I just said 65% for the CL to be conservative, 65% == $357. 357/257 = 1.3891 The average of these two is ~1.33, i.e. a CL is worth about 1.33 of their other launchers. Going back to the starred production numbers, their production was split 60/40 in favor of CL / others. So to correctly scale the production numbers, we would get ~76400 scaled production units. The new series would be `27k, 27k, 54k, 72k, 72k, 82500*, 76400k*` There is turbulence in this current economy so they said they pushed production hard and chilled out a bit the next two quarters. So I excused the drop in total units. Maybe that was too much an assumption, but considering their previous issue was being bottlenecked by inventory, I was very happy to see they no longer have an inventory problem and can focus on the sales problem instead. Byrna's net income was 1.7mm, 2.4mm in Q1, Q2 '25. This is net income calculated after the spike in production (capex). Therefore, going into Q3 where they indicated very similar revenue (28.2m), I am assuming much less capex. Q3 2024 looked as follows: `20.9m Revenue, 14m profit (62%), 1m income` With about 7mm extra revenue, higher profit, margins because of the CL, reduction in total production while maintaining relative production value, I estimated about **$4m income for Q3 2025**. Which felt pretty hype to me. Please continue critiquing when you have time.

Can you explain the CL > CA?

ya i'm on board, netted 2k last night and this morning, (CL,MES,GC, spy, QQQ options) range was too tight to do anything crazy. changed out of 0dte's because lack of options volume, changed into qqq 1dte's and scalped .10c on chart noise and pulled out because things don't look right. options IV is all over the place, I make the most on mean reversion vs trend, and that wasn't going to happen today.

Substantial_Spot_449

off to play some arma3. best move of the night was CL on 1ticket for 330, closed before the first rip to go out and eat and touch grass.

Why CL?

AllCapNoBrake

Are you referring to Amex? None of their cards are all that great anymore, but I have 5 of them (including gold & Zync) I really fucked my credit a long time ago that sorta ended w/ Amex and a $5 late fee if I recall..anyway, they gave me a 2nd chance and since then my credit portfolio/score/etc are comfortably in the 800's and while I had to do the work, they didn't have to extend me 2 cards w/ no credit limits as well as 3 other cards w/ 5 figure CL and low apr (w/ options to extend payments w/ no apr like PayPal Credit offers).

Abject-Advantage528

How is that from “randomly buying” a stock? My account is up 125% based just on my CL option trades. No different than stock picking.

Abject-Advantage528

Buts that not on options on options I already trade CL options.

Unaphotobomber

I sold all my Trulieve and CL yesterday while still in the black on them. Gonna sit on my cash and my GTBIF for a minute until we have a better idea of where we're headed. Worst case, we bleed down and I'll be able to significantly lower my average.

Not quite right. Some Indexes (e.g. SPX, XSP, NDX and RUT) do have options that expire everyday of the week (i.e. M-F.) Some ETFs also have daily expiring options (most notably SPY and QQQ) also some futures options (e.g. ES, NQ, CL, GC) expire daily. I don't think that there are any stocks that have daily expiring options but that's coming. In May 2025 the NASDQ folks sent a letter/request to the SEC to permit Monday Wednesday expirations on some very active stocks such as TSLA, NVDA, and some others. [https://www.marketwatch.com/story/this-zero-day-options-craze-could-finally-be-coming-to-popular-stocks-like-nvidia-and-tesla-heres-what-to-know-79477da2](https://www.marketwatch.com/story/this-zero-day-options-craze-could-finally-be-coming-to-popular-stocks-like-nvidia-and-tesla-heres-what-to-know-79477da2) Again that's M-F but M-W-F, Tuesdays and Thursdays would follow, perhaps. My advice is to start small, trade some ETF options, NOT 0DTE, learn to trade, see how the market works (or doesn't), consider credit spreads to reduce your risk. I would not start with index options (except perhaps the XSP). Read some good basic options trading books (if you haven't already) and write down a trading plan. Best

>Chegg trades below the price it paid for Busuu alone ($436 million in 2022). At today’s ~$1.40, investors assign zero value to Busuu No, it means they assign positive value to Busuu  but negative value to the core business, which more than offsets it due to the size of the core business and its large negative growth. Also analyzing equity value without bringing up debt, or the fact that the company has virtually 0 FCF and CL > CA, is wild

\*\*Don't have enough karma to post under r/options, so posting here\*\* Opened a IBKR account specifically to buy long-dated CL futures options. The futures options are 30% of the account's net liquidation value. For simplicity, let's say the net liquidation value is $100k, and the futures options are $30k. At present, the maintenance margin on the futures options position is equal to my cost basis, so $30k. Two questions: 1. If there was a market crash and the net liquidation value of my account fell below the maintenance margin, could I be margin-called? (I spoke to IBKR about this twice, and no one could give me a straight answer. In theory, I shouldn't be margin-called because unless the futures option is in-the-money, it can't convert to a futures position upon expiry, which would require margin. As confirmation, CME group's terms expressly state that no margin has be posted by the futures call option buyer.) Second question: 2. Let's say I get lucky and these futures options are worth, to pick a number out of a hat, 20x more than what I paid. Could I get margin-called in that case as well? Let's say I have 20 contracts, and oil shoots up to $130. There's a 1000 multiplier on each contract, so notional value is 20 contracts x $130 oil price x 1000 multiplier, which equals $2.6M. Since CL futures options convert to a future if not exercised beforehand, then IBKR will want, I assume, 5-12% of the notional value as collateral. That's $130,000 to $312,000 in collateral. But I only have $70k of cash + securities in the rest of the account. So the question is: won't they margin call me well before that, capping the upside, which the entire point of buying the futures options in the first place? Or will they count the value of the position (the $2.6MM of the futures/option position) toward the maintenance margin, in which case I wouldn't be margin-called unless oil prices fell to the point where the $2.6MM position fell to $130k to $312K. Would appreciate someone's help. I can't seem to get a straight answer anywhere and need 100% certainty, not 75%. I wish these options were as simple as the oil options ICE offers. Unfortunately ICE's oil options don't go out past 2026. Thanks, everyone, in advance.

Just be aware that a few years ago a CL futures contract went to a negative value (first time ever) because the pipelines were overloaded and the designated delivery terminal in Cushing, Oklahoma could not handle more deliveries.

Continuous contracts are just a stitched-together charting convenience. They are not a tradeable instrument. They purely exist so your chart does not look like a staircase every time CL or GC rolls. If you are actually trading, you *must* use the quarterly listed contracts. Those are the ones with real order books, margin requirements, and deliverability. When you sell your 60–90 day strangles, you are sitting on live risk in a given expiry month (say CLZ5). That risk does not magically transfer to a continuous contract. The continuous contract is only useful for analysis, not execution.

I’m not saying they are TL, GTI or CL but it looks better than it did four months ago.

jonnycoder4005

The problem with buying a call or put is the theta component. If you don't get the directional move within the expiration timeframe you're going to lose money. This is why I typically sell options on the futures contract, /CL or /MCL when there's a vol spike (Any middle eastern bullshit conflict). Agree... its insane that Fidelity does not offer futures.

Sure. You are all supah dupah experts that know more than everyone else. That’s why NVDA is raking in billions over billions of dollars in profit from companies that are extremely technically proficient. It’s because they don’t know you can do the exact same thing with Open CL

Sure_Group7471

It is. But it’s not as if you can’t survive without CUDA. There are plenty of other options. You can do the exact thing that CUDA does with Open CL but it takes a bit longer as open CL is more of a general GPU programming language. AMD uses HIP which is another open source option.

Just blew my entire load on GTII and CL, see you next Monday guys. Hopeful things go up from here, maybe even something spicy over the weekend to give us the next leg up

Hoof_Hearted12

Even before this week, CL loves the end of day dump

NaturallyZen

if you zoom out further (ie. 1 year), VRNO and TSND have the most catching up to do as they have fallen the most, even though they are up more than CL in the past 1M. CBST is also in that conversation, but they should be taken with a grain of salt

Yeah I feel this. 4x gets me to an overall break even of 7 years averaging down and cutting losses. I’m trying to keep hold on for the 10X moon shot but the opportunity costs have been so high while my cannabis port has been sooooo low. Friday has me break even on GTI and TRUL. Waiting on CBST and CL to pop, that’s where my degen money is.

CardiologistFew4264

They are. But TL, GTI and CL had strong rallies too. We will see, ur rite. I lean toward something is going on.

So I compared the US MSOs . CL still has not run up like the others. If I could post a picture here I would show the charts, most have run up, including MSOS to a support level (look for the U shape recovery). If the sector remains positive its only a matter of time for Cresco to follow suit. Good luck all.

200cents

Looks like Cresco has some room to go up and catch up to the others. Watch that one. CL

trustfundkidotaku
