So like 60k of this was 18k from rgti shares then put the entire thing basically on IWM 1 DTE puts and made 42k in a single trade. Then lost some amount on the next one for 12/20 calls on something. Just get further out dates man you have the capital now to not be playing so close to expiration.
Sell everything. You can keep BRKB if you really want to and believe in the company doing good long after buffet is gone. Otherwise I would keep it simple and really take on high risk high reward investing considering you are young and can definitely afford to. I say this considering you are in what looks like a great position to make money in life. You probably won’t be needing this money on a rainy day allowing it to just set and accumulate growth. With that being said I would boil it down to some sort of ETF combination of IWM or some alternative that would allow cheaper expense fees? Lol I know some people really care about that. QQQ or some other alternative, VOO or VTI ( I know there is some good amount of overlap but o well. If you are really interested in some foreign also you can go with I think it’s VXUS or other crap. But I would strictly keep it US based investments unless it’s TSM or some other fantastic company.
I try to not lose all the previous week(s) prems when I roll up and out, so I only roll for a debit when dividend's coming up. (Fear of early assignment) A quick example, if I can roll up and out from $100 strike price to $102, and it costs me $0.25, I'll pay that, in case of early assignment, I'm getting $200 (more), but only cost me $25 But otherwise I'd roll up and out, even if it's a $0.10 credit, and even if strike price is ITM. When IWM was blowing through strike prices in Nov and through early Dec, I've rolled up and out every week, collecting (small) credit. The strike price got to $240+ and then it came back down, so I just let the last one expire OTM. Sold more CCs this Monday
Fwiw nvda calls have about 80-90% success rate 1month or longer, and nearly a 100% success rate to be up within the 1 month frame. $IWM is a cheaper stock to play and is a great learning stock as it can be divergent from the trend/masses so its much better to learn on.
In the least bearish case I think this is bullish IWM / DOW rate sensitive stuff
Buying RUT/IWM here. Bonds are near their bottom and the russel is sniffing it out. Missed my entry on SPX thinking it wouldn't see a big move this week but it looks like equity risk is back on the table into year end.
Roland, those backtests look rosy, but relying solely on past performance for options trading is risky. Those support levels seem arbitrary - how did you determine them? IWM's higher IV definitely reflects higher risk, not necessarily "more premium potential." Consider a tighter stop-loss to manage risk. 45 DTE is fine.

Also, Prospero, a free investing newsletter (https://prosperoai.substack.com?r=ukadl), might give you some alternative insights.
Based on your results what have you discovered? I personally trade 2 tickets a day maximum; one being futures of either YM or RTY. The other for options being IWM or TSLA When swing trading options I branch out with stocks I’ve traded in the past that I’m familiar with how they move
I could post it on a quarterly if there is interest. But my initial plan is to first trade SPY only then the more I increase my capital I’ll get into QQQ and IWM. Until I get to a point where the size are too big then I will play earnings.
What do you advice for me with the stocks i have right now: **(VOO)**: 40% **(QQQM + Individual Stocks)**: 40% QQQM: 25% Amazon: 13.89% Palantir: 13.89% NVIDIA: 13.89% Microsoft: 8.33% Google: 8.33% Tesla: 8.33% Netflix: 8.33% **DIVIDENDS (SCHD)**: 10% **(IWM)**: 10%
Do the wheel strategy on IWM for example. Should give you more than enough. Greetings from Austria
Read somebody write about waiting for Cathy to sell, waiting for new interim lows and investing. Thesis was she does the work, cuts losers, but sometimes the story hasn't changed, just the price. If you think IWM is going up, research her sells over the past year for potential ideas. Pick a few.
I'm not a chart nerd by any means, but are those bear flags on the monthly IWM and TSLA charts?
Seeking Alpha article: “Santa to IWM small cap ETF: I have nothing for you” 😂
IWM is the most garbage ETF to ever exist lmao this thing is red on up days and craters on down days
IWM 0dte calls might be a better play than SPY or QQQ here
At this point it’s safer to just assume IWM rallies just get faded.
On December 12th, I sold 7 Dec 20 $234 calls on IWM for $2.93. On December 19th, I bought to close at $0.04. I think I got lucky. 😏
If IWM finishes 2% down tomorrow I’ll never play with my PP again
All you really need for long term holds are the SPY. You'll get heavy exposure to all of those stocks you just listed with SPY. For more diversity you can also buy and hold the QQQ and IWM etf's. What's your investing timeline? Because... Long term buying and holding could be for decades and no individual stock is fit to be held for decades. Most of today's leading stocks will be gone in 40 years, which is about when you'd be looking to retire. Most if not all of the individual stocks you listed won't be worth nearly as much as they are today. They'll be replaced by other leaders and those new leaders will be included in the QQQ, SPY, and IWM, while today's leaders will eventually be removed. Some may even go completely belly up and be absolutely worthless.
WARNING TO NOVICE INVESTORS Please do not enable options trading or margin trading until you have the proper experience and are able to endure higher risk. Also, indexes like SPY, QQQ, and IWM are great starts for respectable gains (average 7%-10%).
Hoping IWM pumping means ENVX rockets tomorrow. 
Just Buy, SPY, QQQ, IWM and DIA
Is this ‘Tom Fat Cuck Lee IWM summer and year end rally’ still in the room with us
You can make it back. Stay positive and double check your assumptions before investing. If you find you’re not investing well, try SPY or QQQ or IWM and let it ride for a few years…
Why not trade RUT over IWM for the far better tax treatment?
You do you. All good. But sometimes I want to understand why people are so against margin. Just curious. I was wrong some times already. This week I was wrong and had to buy 100 shares of IWM. Currently 17K USD in debit. Still have like 250K buying power left. I could pay in the 17K but see no sense in that since I will get out of the IWM probably within next week. If I would have bought 10 contracts, the unresponaible amount of margin, I might would have a problem now.
Tome Lee, in late July, said IWM would be 300+ by the end of this year...
Yes, IWM, give it back, you POS
Please let my IWM 221 puts hit 
IWM rocketing is setting up ENVX for a squeeze. 23% up today.
im not sure why i continue to play IWM. its such a dogshit ETF that barely acts right and you have to catch the 2-3 stretch for longs, and then watch paint dry if youre short.
Holy balls ENVX up a casual 15% dragging IWM up
sold IWM too early, 
Is that the sound of IWM finally not scamming?
sold IWM around 219 and took profit. 
Government shutdown is deflationary, should be good news for IWM. Bought IWM around 217.6; heard rumor that institutions have been accumulating russell 2k recently.
10x $TSLA $480p Mar exp. 425x $IWM $200p Mar exp. Bring the 
It contains some of the shittiest public companies in the US. It doesn't contain the mag 7 while the mag 7 has carried SPY on its back all year, yet everyone talked about how much $IWM could go up due to underperforming the SPY! Bitch please, two of the top companies in $IWM is Carvana and SCMI.
IWM chart looks like a strung out, late stage cancer patient with MS that got hit by a truck then mauled by coyotes, then chewed on by rats.
Watched $250k in $IWM $200p evaporate to $50k after Trump won the election. Held the entire time during the bullshit euphoria that took place, and now back up to $180k. Not selling. We break $200 and I'll be fucking set.
remember when Tom Lee said IWM was gonna double by year end
10 year rocketing. DXY highest it's been since 2022 correction. IWM continues to get pummeled. No Santa rally this year
RSP and IWM are complete dudes today, which is foreboding as they were expected to rally after being in oversold territory for so long. But most of the inflows are going into mega-cap tech.
Gonna be impressive when IWM closes red for the year within a 3 week dump
IWM up 1% in 15 minutes what is happening 💀💀
Mag 7 just holding this bag of bones together IWM from +1% to -0.5% after a -5% day Everything is fine
Bought IWM puts at open. Up 318%. Sold. Thank you very much.
IWM is such a scammy POS lol, literally dumped more than 1% in half an hour
IWM kinda the canary in the coal mine, right?
Surely IWM catches bid roday
Gotcha, any advice on something nice that could be sold daily and potentially safe to own long term? I was thinking IWM since it dipped $10 rn right into my buying range.
IWM down 4-5%, my small cap down 10-12%, port down 20% https://preview.redd.it/w2jfmta5iq7e1.jpeg?width=1039&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=70fc627f3fffbf1765fb9c74112fb4453619cdaa
I was big in among other things MU, EWZ, MSTR, IWM and I use leverage. Spreadbet mainly and some options. Lots of commons in MU and EWZ.
What names are you checking out for this dip? I am looking at leaps for these Vrt, oracle, IWM, KRE, Spy, coin, adobe
> There's a decent chance that this was a finishing blow to the downside outside of tech stocks for the next couple weeks. I somewhat doubt it. QQQ and SPY finished the day at election day support; RSP and IWM crashed below it and have lost all their gains since September. They're floating in the void between the 100 and 200-day MAs. > BTW: I'd already say Trump v2.0 is disappointing in comparison to v1.0. XLF is losing the gains from the election gap up quickly already, while it held up pretty well in late 2016-early 2017. Very different scenarios. Trump's first term came at the end of a two-year bear market. This one's at the peak of an overstretched bull market that needed to calibrate.
I think IWM puts would’ve profited even more.
IWM just straight down, garbageeeeeeee
You seem it have the most experience and seem more grounded. Can you do CC with 0 DTE contracts like SPY, Qs, IWM? I read about it but don't fully understand why it wasn't doable or bad? Idk. If you know more about it, can you please explain why not? Or why it's possible. Thanks!!!
IWM has further to drop IMO, 200 by end of week potentially. Puts on Tom Lee 
My dumb ass bought more puts for tomorrow on IWM. I can already feel the dick the anoos
Been a great week for me: $200k gains on QBTS $101K (so far) gains on IWM and TSLA puts. Bring on the main course: BoJ decision tonight.
IWM put printed in the last 15 min
Tom 'fat cuck' Lee told everyone SPX 6300 and IWM 300 by EOY. 
Holy shit IWM 
tbh Im not that sophisticated in that, I wouldnt advice trading bonds; it's easier to predict stock market sectors based on Bond market (or yield trend in general). Im not sure what 10y does next. Will it rally? stay balanced? If yields rally, small caps (IWM) and usually BTC falls. (BTC in theory trades opposite of dollar DXY and/or TNX; which would seem counter intuitive to some ppl lol; rising inflation is bad for bitcoin; strong growth economy is bullish; money printing is bullish for BTC). Faang benefits in every scenario, rising and falling yields. If TLT falls - smart money buys faang (aapl etc). If yields rally (meaning "rising inflation", everything other than 2% (goldilocks economy)) and no future recession, faang goes up (all the AI tech etc). I trade FNGU. sometimes you can time the reversals and VIX rallies (UVXY), you got to be sophisticated though. //"longterm" falling high yields, longterm high falling vix --> IWM (small caps). Bitcoin. (Depends how much economic growth) //Low VIX, rising yields --> Faang. some ppl trade Value vs growth, Im not that sophisticated. I think value is good when yields (long term) fall (ie think interest rate cuts). Growth does good at all times (u just lose time waiting @ value). //in short- valuations matter. markets are efficient, predictable.
At one point IWM -5% Good lord
IWM going to take like 5 years for me to breakeven on with how slow it rises after i get assigned
3 months of IWM gains gone in like 2 hours lmao wonder who Powell got the word out to ahead of time
$50k gain so far today. Thanks IWM and TSLA puts!
My IWM and NVDA bags are getting heavier…
get wrecked IWM, you had no business being pumped anyways. no cheap debt for you. bye bye now
Damn IWM 
Been holding IWM puts from before the election. Slowly coming back to life.
Sold IWM calls at 1:59, thank baby Jesus 
Patiently waiting for Jpow to bless my IWM calls
Guess what? It’s a day that ends in Y so IWM sucks
I’ll probably be shorting IWM. It’s already been looking weak the past month.
any long term srocks yall reccomend i have VOO IWM V PLTR COST and QUBT need one more
Not sure what you're talking about specifically. I definitely think tech is the place to be, but right now it's really overextended and every other sector is a way better buy. Industrials, insurance, materials, banks, energy etc. Personally I think XLF and IWM are the best buys atm. I would stick diversification in sectors.
Is tomorrow finally the day to buy IWM calls?
