Realised 10k loss in SLV and GLD shorts today. Might get liquidated tomorrow. AMA https://preview.redd.it/annmwthtsddg1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a45142e31198d015256e95719815a7dcb3f31633
I am just a little bit unclear. On /GC are you trying to put on a single option, or a spread. I think trying to use GLD, the most you could get would be 50% face BP. You will only know if you call and say FUTURES, and get someone on the trade desk. Look at it this way Sgov only gets 70% face. I have found that Selling a 20 delta Put /GC is around 30k BP, and yes they really do take BP (mine is Sgov).
Don’t plan on anything tomorrow as the market is already up and feeling like it’s not the best time to buy. If I were you I would buy a GLD long calls for $430 with a strike date of the 16th of this month. This is not a guarantee of money by any means just a recreation of what I bought today. I would buy some silver calls tho too because I have convictions that it will hit 100 somewhat soon. But like I said not financial advice in the slightest.

booked some profits on GLD calls that I bought in October/Nov/December. feels satisfying
The V you were looking for happened in GLD.
Buy GLD stock. Much easier to carry around. :-)
SLV and GLD won’t stop until I buy back lol
Look I sold the rest of my GLD and SLV calls this morning because my intuition says short term correction. But if you actually buy puts on them you’re a special kind of retard
I would much prefer buying GLD or some stock that marks the spot price, it’s insured and don’t have to worry about losing it or keeping receipts to know what you owe on taxes.
The only thing green are my SLV GLD calls
Serious question: do I roll my GLD calls up when IV > HV? Sell some, roll some up, keep some? They’re May 390c. Could see a short term pullback to the trend but bullish for the first half of this year still.
Oh you want to be holding assets 100%. Personally I've tried to diversify my accounts to offset major downside risks, while raking in gains from precious metals. I'm holding VEU, IAU/GLD, GLTR, mining companies, S&P index funds, SCHD, defense etfs (including foreign ones like KDEF and EUAD), BRKB, SOXX, and large cap growth mutual funds.
$GLD and $SLV have been carrying my entire portfolio. The fun has to end at some point right??
day 363 of hoping that GLD closes higher than TSLA. come on baby, you're so close
Up $7000, thank you GLD and SLV.
Since the April 2020 Covid lows: $GLD up 3x $QQQ up 4x $SLV up 9x $coin up 25x $NVDA up 41x
I was doing that with GLD and make a decent amount of money and then lost one 1 trade when it drops and was flat for a bit. Don’t think IV on SLV is kind of high? How far out are you buying your calls?
Is it too late to join GLD and SLV gang boys?
I missed it like you, best thing to do now is break even on SLV if not playing with house money at this point. Sticking to GOOG, GLD, BIDU, BABA.
Time to buy SLV and GLD puts / today expiration
GLD, B, GOLD calls all pumping 💪💪💪
If you posted this at the beginning of 2024 with proposed positions in GLD/SLV LEAPS calls and/or gold/silver miners, you would have made so many people happy. But this post is just regarded.
I still think about that time a bunch of flat earthers took over an intersection by my house. Just so many people standing in the sun holding all these sharpied up cardboard signs. For some reason I just decided to start honking and these people lost their shit cheering and waving at me. Never made that many people happy in my life and probably never will again anyway GLD baby fuck this silver shit
It's clear that this administration wants to devalue the dollar but you're not buying GLD and SLV calls? Craaaazzzzyyyyyy
2028 GLD 420p and SLV 69p for the meme.
Daddy has been balls deep in GLD and SLV for a while now. And daddy ain’t pulling out.
I kinda wanted to but I worry that silver is the one who's overextended, figured id join in on the retard strength for some quick gains and got in on SLV instead. Investing thesis: SLV:GLD ratio too high -> invest in SLV
A rare moment I open up the chart and line immediately goes up. Well done GLD, well done
GLD is old money SLV is new money 🚀
The metals, especially gold, were all supposed to be under pressure until tomorrow due to BCOM rebalancing, but geopolitical tensions canceled out whatever negative effect that was supposed to have. I thought of buying puts on GLD and SLV, too, but opted for calls instead.
GLD or SLC (or others). You can also invest in mining like B, but it has run up a bunch in the past year, probably has more to go but I wouldn't call it cheap.
Current portfolio is BABA, IREN, LAC, GLD, GDX. Up 35% so far year to date lmao can’t wait for the glorious loss porn later this year
I bought a bunch of GLD back in April and still holding but I totally missed this silver run.
Just buy GLD or SGOL like a normal person
Are institutions buying into 🌽 because SLV and GLD are at such extremes?
GLD was on track to $5k, now it will never move up. ffs.
I bought GLD calls today singlehandedly orchestrating a massive pivot from GLD to buttcorn
I did it with GLD last year. All it takes is a lot of precise timing.
GLD and SLV calls bc I think somethings about to happen tn
There’s no ticker for physical gold lmao. There’s gold futures which is $GC=F and then $GLD which is the gold etf which tracks gold at like 9-10% of the actual price (like right now while gold is $4,593 GLD is at $421). Have fun being banned though 😹🫵
Not at the moment. Mostly playing metals at the moment (SLV, GLD). I sold out of GTLB after the bounce on their last earnings for a slight gain (see the final update). I may play next ER's again, maybe with LEAPs if it looks appealing.
QQQ, SPY, SLV, GLD all flash down for a second and immediately bought back up something fuckey is happening
That is true GLD is an ETF on Gold. As per YouTube, one could invest in companies that mine GDX. What do you actually research to figure out what can benefit with gold going up? I’ve seen people mention to buy MU because they benefit with Nvidia rising
diamond handing GLD puts
Consider the three month run up in SLV (+72%) versus GLD in that same span (+12.75%). One of them is a legitimate flight to safety vehicle, and the rotational flows track with other derisking rotations. The other is a heavily shilled meme at this point 🤷♂️
GLD the SPDR Gold Shares ETF is also a possible investment for gold exposure. You will get an average return of golds stocks by holding it. I prefer to do my research and buy stocks that I think will perform better than average. I think B2Gold is going to do very well in a rising gold price environment.
Silver and gold going up forever. Buy GORO GLD SLV
Bear thesis is the Fed gets compromised and continues QE and printing money and stocks go up infinitely (I'm not kidding, I'm a 🌈🐻 and I've been full porting SLV and GLD for months now)
LOLMAX. We are so fuk. Buy GLD, SLV, Guns, and SPY
So I need to call GLD and SLV again is what you're saying?
Because SLV is an Trust (similar to an EFT) that tracks the performance of Silver. Etf's and Trusts hold a certain percentage of the underlying asset typically %60 to %80 and use the rest of the cash to rebalance so it tracks the day to day performance. All Trust and ETF's do this to some extent. This allows people to buy shares at a cheaper price and still get the performance of the underlying. SPY, QQQ, VOO, GLD are all the same. Gold spot is $4600 but GLD is $422.23/share, S&P 500 Index is 6977 but SPY S&P 500 ETF is $695/share. This allows more access to expensive equities that would be out of reach for many.
Interesting to see GLD and SLV gaining traction lately - could be worth keeping an eye on.
My gold ETF is SGOL but I would use GLD's put contracts for better liquidity. The problem is I would need 35 short puts and 70 long puts to make a tailhedge totaling 105 contracts that would have to be rolled again in 30 days. I put in a request to Schwab to lower my options commission to $0.15/contract. Wish me luck, lol. Alternatively, I can lower the # of contracts by using put options on /GC. There, I would only need 6 long puts and 3 short puts.
Currently holding SPY puts and GLD calls. Lets see what happens...
Normally most brokers are going to want to have cash because of how futures are settled. You are trying to hedge your gold ETF with futures ? I assume it is the GLD ETF, if so just used the options associated with the ETF. I'm not sure why you are trying to cross margin securities.
Yes and no. Like you saw SLV and GLD skyrocket today which aren't going to show up on the S&P. And the 10-year Treasury Yield continues to threaten to cleanly pierce 4.2% again. But for the DOW, it's just the timing was when something much bigger was going on that has been kind of under the radar for non-tech traders. The algorithms have us caught in an increasingly narrower and narrower long-term channel. And they need to make a decision in the next 2-3 weeks about which direction they're going. Otherwise, it gave them a daily excuse to rotate out of a bunch of stuff that suddenly looked bad (every company hit by Mango's credit card debt edict) back into stuff like all those tech stocks that got hit last week. What's more important to see is if this week we get a clean pierce of about 50k. If we don't see it soon, it would signal a hard reversal. If we do see it, then we're off to the races again. But the channel is running out of track to run on.
Closed out my GLD options and 95% of my AGQ position. Threw some of that cash into miners, leveraged Biotech, Target, MORT, XLP, RKT, UPS, Still waiting on some other plays to cash out within the next quarter or two. Thinking of closing out SPY/QQQ when SPY gets to $700-$710 and then just buying back on a fat dip
+906% on my GLD calls today >:) And Walmart! +333% on my 118c weekly
Not touching GLD. It’s a legitimate store of value in times like these when folks flee for safety. Shillver on the other hand has always been second fiddle, and first clown
GLD and SLV puts checking in
Good day today in the GLD!!!
My move is to watch GLD and SLV rise. 🥇🥈
Imagine seeing a 2% day in GLD and thinking... yeah everything is just fine.
Is GLD gonna be priced higher than SPY by 2030?
i have the same GLD calls, up 75% . congrats to us!
wow didn't know they have 3 expiries a week now on GLD and SLV, thanks for the tip!
When is SLV and GLD dumping? Overdue now.
Gold is going to keep shooting up if Trump gets his way. Other countries will keep shifting away from the dollar. I wish I would have bought some GLD a couple of years ago but I honestly didn't think his cabinet would encourage him to go after the Fed to this extent, the one thing Republicans genuinely care about is money.
SLV and GLD *has* to correct at some point, right??
just sold off 75% of my individual stock portfolio besides some boomer defensive stocks and SLV/GLD. Don't trust the market this week
And SLV and GLD at the same Time. Markets are fried
I am still riding those GLD calls
I just sold all my GLD for 62%. I had Feb calls. I feel like we are constantly having ups and downs. I’ll rebuy if we correct. Silver expires in July. I sold a little bit but still keep it on
If I was an Olympic athlete and won the GLD metal, I would be upset that I was not more shitty so I can win SLV instead. Suffering from success
thinking of taking profit and sitting on cash and my SLV/GLD positions. Up a lot and I dont trust the market right now (all equities)
GLD calls saved my port. bought the dip, sold the rip
happens, i didn't personally touch anything other than metals (GLD, SLV)
Where’s the dude with the strangle on SPY and GLD right now. Hope he good at open
I bought GLD almost a year ago as a temporary place to park cash, and I wish it would stop going vertical. I want to sell that shit before I die so I can lose it all on 0dtes.
Buying any dip in SLV and GLD works yet again!
Copx, GLD, and on hedge bet spy put are going to be my early day winners
I did some great DD [here ](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/1pore1a/see_nmr_mfg_if_you_want_to_benefit_from_increased/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)about Nomura and Mizuho Financial Groups. NMR and MFG, the top premier JPN banks that owns or are related to Morgan Stanley and US financial system without being bound by it, so these stocks are not pegged to USA fuckery, have extremely good dividend yields and will now correct. People keep going to GLD and SLV on bad days, now these are going up hard since the moment I posted, check the dates. I think NMR will make it to $10 today, and MFG probably close.
oh man am gonna book so much profit on GLD calls when market opens
buying at the top is usually a bad idea but in GLD and SLV’s case it worked out for me so that’s cute
