Oh I did definitely learn from the tariff crash I had to revise my strategy and I practiced the execution in order not fall into that same trap. So me trying to see a potential cause for a stock market crash is definitely me learning something. I'm definitely not throwing my money into the index because it's affected by a crash as well. What I did learn how to do is make a watch list of all the most popular stocks and I tracked the mall even if I'm not trading. And I constantly track SPX which is the S&P 500 index, And I track the midcap index which is the S &P 400 index with the ticker MID. To say that I learned nothing is the exact opposite of what's happening here. And I've completely revised my original strategy to prioritize risk management which beans I'm looking for possible things that could cause a crash. I did calm down a little bit and I have not sold actually I added it to my position

Is it not true that RVPH is presenting both at the SPARTAN INVESTOR CAPITAL CONFERENCE in NEE YORK CITY on NOV 3rds/2025 - as well as at the CNS SUMMIT in BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS from NOV 2-5th? This could be a monumental week for RVPH - and begin to funnel it full of hype for all of NOVEMBER - through to leading up to the hopeful FDA meeting in MID DECEMBER - This could finally be the time RVPH becomes the front runner for crazy climbing and growth - 🚀 This process range now is the very lowest you will be able to enter into - Let’s hope RVPH gets the attention it deserves and skyrockets in the weeks and months to come!

NEW GUYS ----> Najarian brothers books. They wrote 2, if on budget get at least the newest one. Easy to understand and while they dumb it down for cnbc crowd on tv, the books themselves cover important territory. Andrew Keenes book is good too for newbs. Whatever happen to that guy anayways. I liked his energy in chicago pits You can also do all courses on OIC, CBOE, and OCC. Google search it, i watched all the videos and passed all the exams/quizzes yrs ago. Pretty sure it was all free. Do the very good courses free at TASTY trade learning center. Do both beginners & advanced. I highly recommend this. Overby - option playbook. 90% visuals and payoff diags but damn he crushed this book. I feel like this is a must own. Get hardcover Option alpha - free videos and courses IBKR campus - go to traders academy courses - free videos and quizzes Bloomberg market concepts - its a low cost course/ it has a decent section on options. If i ran a capital markets 101 class, I would make all freshmen do this before day 1. Just FYI Sang lucci - he was more active back in the day and his old you tube videos from 2013-15 on order flow sweeps and ATM weeklies on fangs are fun as heck to watch. I like his focus on tape and bc he was trained as a prop trader, he has good fun read on mkt microstructure. Think or swim/TDAM - free videos, covers need to knows @ learning center CME institute - free "all about options" course @ their learn center MID LEVEL ----> Spina/Sosnoff - tom a goat and chicago legend; concise book and zero fluff Mcmillan - get 5th edition of strategic investments. Consensus bible and weighs more than a cinderblock Natenberg - perennial favorite Hull - goat but dense ADVANCED/OTHER ANGLES ----> Mcmillan on options The option edge - very academic, but has its moments where it really loops in everyday stuff, like market makers and why Berkshire sells OTM puts. Content good - problem is they printed only paperback size 5 font so its basically unreadable without a magnifying glass. Podcasts - ally options playbook is the best (apple, spotify) Colin bennett - trading volatility / cool stuff in here that is not found elsewhere Jeff augen - he wrote 3 gems, all on amazon Trading option greeks - dan parsanelli. Well-scoped book How to Calculate option prices and their greeks - Ursone Intrinsic - mike yuen. Entire book about leaps on tech names during a bull cycle. For practical purposes, ch 5-10 are good and in plain language cover his actual trades; those looking for an actual trader perspective might enjoy this. Intelligent option investor - takes a value investor approach, covers lot of ground/key concepts Taleb - dynamic hedging - hard to find book / deep practical philosophical. This dude is smart!! Sinclair - he has 3 books i have yet to read BEAST MODE/FINAL THOUGHTS --> regarding exams...consider the CFA FRM CMT CFP CAIA CIPM CTP exams. All levels of all these exams touch the subject in some form or another. The first 2 treat it far more rigorously. CTP way too light a treatment, unfortunately. CMT focuses lot on vix. CFP covered the meat and potatoes better than i expected. Should you want the journal entries for how companies book stock comp/option awards, becker CPA far books really cover the must-knows. Pursue MBA - most top programs default to hull in the derivatives class & authors that both the FRM/CFA base their actual exams on. Adding this in case someone is looking at bschool/MSF down the road. Lastly, if looking for a gift idea or curious what it was like on the floor years ago, "trading pit hand signals" by carlson is one sweet as fk coffee-table book. Its true, the traders have seperate gestures for straddles and strangles. Best of luck! **quick update 4Q24 -** I realized CBOE has a free option calculator, it can be very useful during earnings season to adj theoretical price with different IV assumptions. OIC has one too. but i like the cboe one's simplicity - just an FYI!
GOOOOODDDDD MID MORNING FRIENDS!!!!! 🚨 GOLD WATCH 🚨 Today we are pulling the plug, bought calls on the dip? The next dip? The dip after? Well… this ain’t yesterday’s market Sonny boy…. Boomers bricks are gonna take a beating for a couple of days here. Enjoy the top!
So from the ADP Report itself : # SMALL ( Less than 50 people ) ---- LOST 40,000 Jobs # MID-SIZE ( 50 to 499 people ) ---- LOST 20,000 Jobs # LARGE ( Greater than 499 people ) ---- GAINED 33,000 Jobs
You will get the optimum price for the LEAPS (Note the S is always used and does not indicate plurality). RH will sell at the bid, which can be a lot less than MID. Monitor the extrinsic value of the short call. If it gets to be lower than the dividend amount and you are nearing ex-dividend, then you are likely to get exercised. The simple thing to do is to close the entire position (sell the LEAPS, buy the call). You've made your money and can control your profit.
Thanks. I'll take this into account on future paper trades. I only paper trade. I don't do backtesting any more because I can't replicate the backtest trades in real life. The primary problem is that most backtest software trades at MID, but I can never get better than "80% of the spread", so I enter at "MID + (ASK - MID) \* 0.8, and I sell "BID + (MID - BID) \* .2". The result is that backtesting can close about half the trades in one or two days (because they don't pay the spread, they get more premium than I get so they can close sooner), while most of my trades are loses until the date of expiration.
We are on wallstreetbets. We don't do MID here.
This strategy is going to materialize into either left-of-curve regardation or right-of-curve genius, but you can rest assure it is not MID.

One thing about Fidelity is your quote dont refresh on the order screen. Also, not sure who hold your order after you have place your order. Last order I placed was PLTR call and my bid was MID but its bid/ask not showing my mid as bid while the order still opened. Later, I received a filled 3c under my limit.

Why is (index funds/ETFs/mutual funds), that tracks indexes like the (S&P 500 Index/FTSE GLOBAL ALL CAP INDEX) —> why is it better to invest in these assets VS “investing in INDIVIDUAL COMPANIES? —>Index investing: Markets are better at (adapting to changes in the long run). Geopolitical changes/domestic political changes/etc. Although, (index investing = does not achieve maximum capital appreciation in the “short term/mid term”). That would be associated for (individual companies). —>Individual companies: Most individual companies are capable of (adapting to changes in the SHORT TERM/70% are capable). Moderate amount of individual companies are capable of (adapting to changes in the MID TERM/50% are capable). Fewer amount of individual companies are capable of (adapting to changes in the LONG TERM/30% are capable). Only a few amount of individual companies are capable of (adapting to changes in the VERY LONG TERM/10% are capable). But, individual companies can be greatly associated with MAXIMIZING CAPITAL APPRECIATION. —>However, most (retail investors), are not going to be capable of “picking the right individual companies to invest in, and these will become good solid long term holds.” Most (retail investors), probably do not even think about the phrase — (an old industry dying, and being replaced by a new industry). —>Ex: ->Hundreds of years ago. The (WHALING INDUSTRY was a very lucrative industry to invest in). Whaling industry = hunting whales for: (1)blubber, to convert into oil/(2)meat/(3)etc. Whale hunting, to obtain (blubber — and then oil), was the main reason why the sport was so popular. Very lucrative industry. ->Then, there was the invention of (FORD MODEL T car). Lots of people bought this vehicle, because it was very affordable. More people owning vehicles = more demand for (oil + gas + diesel). To meet this demand, there was a new industry that was emerging. This would be the (oil refinery industry/Cheveron/Exxon Mobil/other popular individual companies). When the “oil refinery industry,” was well-fine tuned —> and oil became very abundant. It caused this to happen. The (WHALING INDUSTRY collapsed very quickly) and (OIL REFINERY INDUSTRY was the new winner). (OIL REFINERY INDUSTRY vs the ELECTRICITY INDUSTRY for vehicles). PS: (WHALING INDUSTRY) and (OIL REFINERY INDUSTRY) and (ELECTRICITY INDUSTRY for vehicles) — would all be classified as falling under the umbrella of the (ENERGY SECTOR). Over the many decades, no one thought about the aspect of: (1)ENERGY SECTOR losing its dominance, in terms of “capital appreciation growth”/and (2)TECHNOLOGY SECTOR gaining immense popularity, and becoming the most dominant in terms of “capital appreciation growth.”
A safe stock as apple, nvidia and tesla? Are you sarcastic? Apple is overvalued since it lacka the growth the market expect. Still a sell for me. Tesla is WAY overvalued and could drop 50% without being a buy. Earnings where absolute terrible. Nvidia have potential but the high volatility and high expectations doesn't really rhyme with a "safe stock". If I had to buy stocks, funds or ETF today it would be; Alphabet, healthcare (stocks, funds or ETF) or just equal weighted S&P500 or MID400 ETF.
I GO TO KOHLS TO HIT ON THE OLD LADIES. PREFERABLY THEIR AGE IS MID TO LATE 80s.
You could add 15% to SP MID CAP IDX CL F, and 5% to SP SMALL CP IND CL F. This gives you the entire US stock market. I don’t see many international funds, maybe see if there a brokerage option like the other comment mentioned. Non-US stocks make up 35% of the global market
Solid foundation with the S&P 500 For a 20-30 year timeline, I’d build a ‘barbell strategy’ using just three funds from your options: 1. SP 500 INDEX (50%)– Keeps your core large-cap exposure. 2. SP MID CAP IDX CL F (30%)– Mid-caps historically outperform long-term (+9.5% annualized vs. S&P’s 7.5% since 1992). This is your upside engine. 3. MGL SM CAP VAL INST (20%)– Small-cap value is the ultimate recession hedge (outperformed S&P by 18% during 2000-2002 and 2008 downturns*). Why this works: - Growth + Defense Mid-caps chase growth while small-cap value stabilizes volatility. - Automatic Rebalancing Your 401(k) contributions will naturally buy more of the underperforming assets over time (dollar-cost averaging on steroids). Pro tip: Set quarterly reminders to rebalance back to these ratios—it forces you to ‘buy low’ systematically. (Note: Avoid the ‘blue chip growth’ funds—they overlap heavily with your S&P 500 base and charge higher fees.)

I have terrible news for you - Jerome Powell's term expires on May 15th, 2026, and Trump gets to nominate the next Chairman of the Federal Reserve, and his dipshit cronies in the Senate have to confirm him. The **ONLY** way for us to avoid having a Trump loyalist in charge of economic policy is to **VOTE IN THE MID-TERMS** and try to win control of the Senate. To make sure I'm not mincing words here, if Trump is allowed to install his own pick as the Chair of the Federal Reserve, we are completely and utterly fucked.

BID - .06 - .07 - .08 - .09 - .10 - ASK When you try to “buy” a call, you are working with the ASK. When you try to “sell” a call, you are working with the BID. The Bid of a spread will, for the purpose of this explanation, be less than the Ask. Hence it’s on the left and the Ask is on the right. If you try to buy an option at the Bid, it will not fill unless that spread moves your offer closer to the Ask. Your range for buying an option is about from the middle, MID, of the spread to the Ask. Your range for selling an option is about from the Bid to the Mid. This is the way things always are whether you are selling to open a contract or selling to close a contract you previously bought.

the point is, does the recession "coming in the future" happen so far down the road that the bottom is still higher than it is today, meaning you still lost out if you timed buying back in perfectly? look at the last 15yrs. the market tripled from 2008-2015. if you had decided we were due for a recession at any point during that time, you'd have been wrong and lost a lot of money. not only that, when the market pulled back 10% after that run, it not only was 160% higher than the 2008 bottom, but it was still 25% higher than the tops from 2000 and 2007. and it proceeded to run *another* 140% from there before that 25% pullback in 2022, which it erased in 1yr and ran another 25% from the previous all time high. the point is that you have a very small chance of selling at and all time high AND buying back in lower than where you sold. if you had sold at ANY point from 2008, the ONLY time you would have made more than 10% was in an 8 MONTH WINDOW BETWEEN APR2021 AND MID 2022. * *if you sold April 2021 or May 2022:* and bought back in THE WEEK OF JUNE 13TH or THE MONTH BETWEEN MID SEPTEMBER AND MID OCTOBER * *if you sold at the very top in Dec 2021:* and bought back in THE 18 MONTHS BETWEEN THE END OF 2021 AND MID 2023. * *if you sold at a midpoint in Aug 2021 or March 2021:* and bought back in either THE SECOND WEEK IN MAY 2022 or THE 6 MONTHS FROM JUNE 2022 TO DEC 2022. **Basically: over a 15 year period, if you timed the market top perfectly, you had an 18 month window to buy back in for a 10% gain, if you missed the top by 3 months, you had a 6 month window to buy back in for a 10% gain, and if you missed the sell window by 6 months on either side, you had a one week window in june 2022 or one month window in sept/oct 2022 to buy back in for a 10% gain.** So that means even if you picked the ONE YEAR in the last 15 that you wouldn't have gotten completely fleeced, you still would've had to time the bottom within an 18month window to make a minimum of 10% and a maximum of 25% while the entire market went up 700% in that time. This is why market bears are dumb.
You're learning that when you buy, you pay the ask. When you sell, you get the bid. Now, for low volume, sometimes you get the MID (halfway between bid and ask) and that's what garbage ass $HOOD is giving you. The ticker and strike would be helpful next time.
You are trading with the market makers. Always gets filled a point or 2 below MID.
Oh fuck…. Instead of anything GREAT we are just gonna get a “MID” Depression that pisses off the optimists AND the pessimists.

For Index investing, go for ETFs. NIFTYBEES, MID150BEES, HDFCSML250 are some great ETFs. I typically prefer ETFs rather than MFs for index funds. With ETFs, you can take advantage of immediate trade completion and buy/sell at exact prices and timings that you wish for, especially when markets are volatile. In MFs, you need to wait for 2 days, and also pay higher expense ratios.
So based on your prior links and these as well a better distribution would be something like below. I do appreciate the links and resources you've been posting! It's all very helpful.

* Vanguard Target RET 2045 VTIVX .08% 5 This is just a typical 4 fund portfolio: Vanguard Total Stock Market 50.90%, Vanguard Total International Stock Index Fund Investor 33.60%,, Vanguard Total Bond Market II 10.70%, Vanguard Total International Bond II 4.80%. Low cost cap weighted, Vanguard.... BTW good rule of thumb is to get a target date that is designed for someone about a decade younger than yourself. So consider the 2055. * DFA U.S small cap fund DFSTX. Slightly smaller and more value oriented than a cap weighted blend. A little focus on profitability. You are paying a lot for the screening but it might help some. * MFS MID CAP growth fund OTCHX Literally the oldest open ended mutual fund house. Above average management. Last thing you need is more growth though with the Vanguard. A good choice if you disliked Vanguard, but it doesn't appear you do. * Science and technology fund JESTX More in tech. Sort of actively managed QQQ. Skip. * Vanguard mid-cap value etf VOE Vanguard small cap value index VSIAX .07% Seriously worth considering both as you could use some more small and value. This is designed to work well with the target date. I'd load up here. * 500 index fund JFIVX skip. You have total market from Vanguard. * John Hancock disciplined fund JDVWX A nice actively managed value fund that is not expensive. I'd consider it You sure there is no more international in there? I'd like to add the value tilt but not at the expense of the international tilt.

I unsubscribed and use my sister in laws just make her verify every single time once a month when I want to browse Netflix. I say browse because there's so much MID garbage on there I end up burning 30 mins scrolling and watching previews. I'm shocked Netflix continues to grow.
I use a stream deck with IBKR. Binding all my buy/sells to the deck. Best thing about IBKR is you can buy at MID.
I saw the CEO on Bloomberg or some fucking shit talking about US isolation hampering free trade and I'm thinking "My brother in christ, you know what really hampers free trade? YOUR FUCKING PLANE DOORS JETTISONING MID FLIGHT! How about you fix your fucking shit before you start worrying about macroeconomics?"
Why win big when you can win MID
Of course I did. I only focused on what I believe was affecting the stock price. With that said, clearly you do not understand how a "pyramid scheme" works. The entire insurance business works off a hierarchy structure in some form or another. Life Insurance companies don't make any money in the first 2 - 3 years of a policy. Why? They have to pay commissions. Those commissions are paid upfront to a "agency" for placing the policy and distributed to the sales team. Out of those commissions the "AGENT" actually receives the most. Usually 80 - 110 PCT depending on the company and structure. Agents produce business for the company, some are captive, some are independent. Each has their own PROS and CONS. Of course the the " agency owner" will be making significantly more than an agent. However, they are also responsible for lead costs, office expenses, staff etc.. However, the same can be said for the CEO of any major company. CEO > Exec team > Middle managers > Staff... Get it? Here is a simple visual representation of a typical business anywhere... $$$$$$$ CEO $$$$$ EXEC EXEC EXEC EXEC EXEC $$$ MID MGR MID MGR MID MGR MID MGR MID MGR MID MGR $$ STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF STAFF Oh no what did I just draw...

You were clearly lazy Quarter 1 on 2024. You did not workout the way you wanted to. You did not go out with the pretty girls. You did not eat right. You were not your most confident self. You did not make the money you wanted to. You did not tske that trip you wanted to. #STEP YA GAME UP NOW AND DESTROY THE MATRIX #SPY 535 MID APRIL MAYNE #💵🚘🏄♂️🚤👩🦰🔫
Not saying you’re wrong on anything you just said but if anyone on the planet thinks that Biden is in better shape (mind or body) compared to anyone his age, let alone trump, they are an insane person themselves. It’s just not a fact. You can google like a thousand instances of him forgetting what he’s doing MID SPEECH lol. And videos of him tripping/falling just walking or going up stairs? Mind you those are just when the cameras are rolling.
Boeing engineers be like: “ what IF it disassembles itself MID air!? You don’t even need to land it!”
Worth it I need to grab a AMD NVDA SMCI GOOG McDonald’s And HOOD ALL MID 2025 2026 leaps . Then I can relax for the rest of the year and the next and the next

Lol Drill Team MID 
U dumb fuck it didn’t FAIL in MID 2007 it FAILED in MARCH 2008 lol wtf does your brain not work or something?
I bought TEAM SOLO MID (TSM)
WE ALREADY KNEW IT WOULD NOT DECREASE UNTIL MID-LATE 2024. Why is so surprising
BTW, another advantage of selling when it goes ITM is that it seems like this is a penny stock... if you open options chain you will notice that the open interest is highest around barely ITM to barely OTM strikes. this is not an issue with liquidity monsters like SPY or TSLA. You will get filled, but it can be a big issue for penny stocks/unknowns. if it goes super deep ITM like $20 spot price, and you have 10.5c... there is a minuscule chance you won't fill on "MID" but much closer to BID if at all... Imagine a scenario where ABC shoots up to 20, you want to sell, but no interest because "it is so obvious 10.5c will make money"... you could baghold until ABC reverts back to 11 or 12...
You are skipping the fundamental part about the merchant account the merchant utilizes to process the payment. While your first paragraph is true that the card is processed over visa's network and the issuing bank of the customers credit card is given their portion of the fee it skips entirely over the fees processed on the merchants end. When processing an apple Pay transaction the transaction does not go through the merchants assigned merchant account it goes through apple's Super Mid. Very similar to how stripe works (except stripe still charges the merchant associated fees while apple does not pass along those fees). Therefore the acquiring bank of the merchant is left not getting any of their pieces of the pie due to the payment just not routing through them. This is why JPM and others are pushing for a higher rev split in terms of the split in terms of issuing bank fees. Banks make a majority of their credit card processing revenue through charging the fees to the merchant, this is why companies like Fiserv are so massive and make up a great deal of the money generated in e-commerce. I can link you articles provided by apple that show that this payment does not get routed through either the merchants gateway or MID proving that the real losers here are not MC or Visa rather the acquiring banks themselves.
