My First Two Weeks Of Options Trading
Mentions
firefly aerospace (FLY) imo around $6bn cap. One of the most direct Artemis lunar surface plays you can buy now people love to shit on it, but I love to buy it and am up around 80% already * only company to pull off a clean, upright commercial Moon landing. Blue Ghost put 10 NASA payloads down in March 2025, returned 110GB of data. Intuitive Machines has landed twice and tipped over both times (now maybe they succeed on the 3rd attempt, maybe not...) * tied for the most NASA CLPS task orders (5) with Intuitive Machines. Missions booked through 2029 including a south pole landing with two rovers = directly prepping the region for Artemis Base Camp * NASA shelving Gateway and pivoting $20B toward a permanent south pole surface base is the catalyst here that is overlooked imo (I could be wrong). Phase 1 runs through CLPS robotic precursor missions = it is literally Firefly's business model * not just a lander company - Alpha (small launch, flying, they have turned a corner imo here now, they had issues but put a lot of work into resolving said issues and did a flawless latest flight), Eclipse (medium-lift coming, imo at this point they have a very good chance at beating RKLB Neutron here to launch first), Elytra (in-space transport), and SciTec defense software contracts (**this** acquisition is the most interesting piece of the jigsaw for me) * $1.4B backlog. 2026 revenue guided \~$435M, 80% booked. 2025 was $160M up 163% YoY calendar is stacked for the rest of the year with catalysts, and the hiring was one of the biggest signals for me to take a large position (hiring for massive scale, 100 or so positions open, a lot of interesting roles that tell you the direction of travel for the company)
LUNR is obvious, I give you that. FLY is another one I am interested in. VOYG is building Starlab which is a replacement for the Space Station but it seems NASA is no longer supporting a replacement. RKLB seems to have their eyes on Mars, little to do with Artemis. Their future Neutron rocket does not seem powerful enough to deliver payload to lunar orbit. Their solar panels may play a role for power stations on the moon but all I hear now is that NASA is going with nuclear power.
I'm heavy RKLB, and got into LUNR when their lander flipped the 2nd time, but OP wants stocks that haven't seen huge 2025 runups and have room to 500-1000%. RKLB with a successful neutron launch will probably hit $160 to $170. That's a lot less than what OP is looking for, even if significantly more than the broader market. These stocks will also see a bit of turmoil from SpaceX. To answer OP, he might consider LEAPS on these stocks for 2028, but thats really the only way he'll see those returns in the space sector short term.
Made a bunch on calls on and off over the past couple years with LUNR. IMO the stock has been pretty predictable, always pumped before a major announcement or mission, dumped, and repeated. RKLB similarly was the same for me. I rolled profits back into more LUNR the whole time. Sitting on a juicy pile with an average cost of $8. Prob sell half at $30 and then ride the rest into oblivion.
I came here to investigate where to put my money. SpaceX or RKLB. After reading a ton of comments from others on both companies, this comment has single handedly convinced me to invest in SpaceX. Thanks.
RKLB is such a piece of shit compared to ASTS
Learn how to predict the future and you’ll never sell too early. I bought ASTS when it was around $3 and sold when it was around $30. If I’d held I’d have life changing money right now. But I needed the cash at the time and I also figured that since they were pre revenue there was no way the stock would keep climbing. Similar story with RKLB and IONQ. Oh well.
Yes, same for me with $ASTS & RKLB I made it all back. RKLB ATH was 94+ it will go back just gotta soon I’m all in, be patient
RKLB and ASTS, yes, but PL has been running hard recently, hasn't really been consolidating much.
$nbis $RKLB for next week
RKLB fucking dead lately Nearest catalyst is 1 plus year out
The big three (RKLB, ASTS, and PL) have been consolidating for a while now.
I have 200 dollars in RKLB and I wanna sell and get a better stock, any suggestions?
Should probably find something with relatively low market cap - spacely sprocket stocks seem popular here we could run up ASTS LUNR RKLB Virgin Galactic
They are cool company, but they are not really under the radar and pretty well known. It's why I avoided stuff like RKLB, MDA, LUNR, RDW, etc. These are more names that most people have no idea exists and can get you some exposure to space.
# Remember when RKLB was actually a good stock to have LMAO
Hey mango can you post about how great MSFT and RKLB are, and please include the tickers too??
Should have bought NBIS instead of ASTS and RKLB
My two biggest holdings are RKLB and ONDS… lol I am a regard
RKLB I think might be pumping to previous ATH
Yeah man got both, only other biotech firm I own is ATL I generally pick out a thesis for 3-5 yrs and put my capital towards that. I’ve been in space for a very long time and will continue to be, it’s the next frontier man. As much of a corrupt fuck Elon is everything he touches turns to gold. I like money not virtues. Beginning of February I started moving about 1/3 of my portfolio into commodities sugar, energy and miners. I had 10$ CANE c exp July which I did very well on, still holding 12$ Oct exp incase world falls apart. PLSR isn’t my only exposure to helium but this is my multi bagger and by the end of my acquiring of shares it will be largest exposure by a lot probably about 20% of my account if I can get at the right price Managed to get into RKLB and LUNR around 4$ and PNG/KRKNF at 0.80$
Please RKLB pump tomorrow I’m on my knees
RKLB and ASTS definitely going parabolic.
The only reason is diversification. Spare a bit of cash for RDDT NBIS RKLB AVGO as well
Most of my portfolio is in speculative growth stocks. I look for small to mid cap companies that are in early commercialization. Meaning that they are not yet profitable, but are past the R&D phase; they have a working product/service that just needs to establish it's place in the market. It starts with me identifying an up and coming market. For example, I wanted to invest in space logistics and wanted to find an upcoming competitor to SpaceX. That led me to RKLB. Another example was wanting to invest in satellite imagery. I was late to the game with Planet Labs (PL), and started looking for a viable competitor. That led me to Satellogic Inc (SATL). For reference, RKLB is 22% of my portfolio ($31.87 AVG) and SATL is 12% ($2.96 AVG) I look at the leadership with most of my focus on the CEO. Ideally I want an investment where the CEO has demonstrated excellent leadership, a background in the industry and no major red flags from past operations. I also look at employee reviews on Glassdoor. Which for small companies is not always useful, but I try to gain insight on reoccurring problems with the product or leadership. Ideally, what I'm hoping to find are overall content employees that are only complaining about long hours / startup culture. I look at the entry price. A big part of my strategy is finding asymmetric investments; ones where most of the dilution is already priced in and a major runup has not yet occurred. If a stock has risen 50% in a week and I really like the company I will watch and wait for a better price. If the price never declines, I find another investment. Most of my DD is in the product, the narrative and the people. I don't apply traditional valuation metrics to the balance sheet because to be frank, the financials of speculative growth companies look terrible from a traditional perspective. I do look at cash burn and capital available; if I suspect dilution is imminent I will wait to invest. Share dilution in small growth stocks is inevitable but ideally I'd like to enter at a point where the price floor rises before pulling back due to dilution. For position sizing, depending on the size of the company, how well established they are, my confidence in the leadership/employees, the potential size of their respective market, etc. I'll allocate 1-10% of my portfolio. For example, a micro cap I would only be comfortable starting with 1-2% and scaling up as milestones are achieved. Versus a value investment in a large cap company (I previously made value investments in ASML and ALB) I will allocate 10%. All this being said, my investment style is very high risk. I don't recommend it for most investors; I put a lot of time into this and treat it as a second job. I also haven't fully proven my thesis yet. I started actively managing my portfolio in Nov 2024 and am currently at an all time gain of 35%. Due to the volatile nature of growth stocks, that performance figure could change radically in either direction in a short period of time. As far as educational material goes, Peter Lynch is who I started with and is still my favorite guru for retail growth investing. My strategy leans more toward speculative than his, but most of what he teaches I align with (invest in what you know, ignore short term volatility, let winners grow, etc.) His book 'One Up On Wall Street' is a great place to start.
Puts on QQQ,TLSA,ASTS,NVDA,RKLB Slow bleed before IPO
I'll watch it, maybe do some DD. But, my largest positions and best performers are RKLB and LUNR--which, imo, has more room to grow.
I need the rockets to rocket up on RKLB
Why wouldn’t people move into proven stocks if you think everything will go with it. LUNR, MDA, RKLB etc already all up last month Did see some guy buy SPCE calls exp July and I’m fairly sure he’s up several hundred % now
$5K of RKLB $69 10Apr puts. Was down almost $1K and climbed buck up to $444 and sold. This all happened within about 5 min.
RKLB, let's go! 🚀 [https://youtu.be/Ej0QEGzlBUQ?si=OUB87KQbn02kmEGO](https://youtu.be/Ej0QEGzlBUQ?si=OUB87KQbn02kmEGO)
Got no cash left, went all in on RKLB & Hexagon
ftfy > RKLB ~~with SpaceX IPO ahead~~ is free money
RKLB with SpaceX IPO ahead is free money
Own a bunch of MDA, LUNR etc obviously not the same but Still have RKLB shares from 4$ What’s your reason for Fjet?
I'll allow RKLB at $90. It is actually well run
Why are we mooning, RKLB fam
Space stock will fly today - ASTS, PL and RKLB …. This is your only warning
Uh yeah everything... *cries at RKLB position*
ASTS and RKLB are the 2 stocks to be in. I own ASTS
Yeah I fumbled RKLB buying in at 4 and selling at 36, should’ve held. Profit is profit though.
I nailed the covered calls during this war… until I didn’t. I did not expect such a massive TACO. What are the odds that RKLB doesn’t end the week over 69? CIFR not ending next week over 17? ONDS not breaking 12 by the end of the month?
RKLB calls to ride the Artemis and SpaceX hype 👌
Yeah I dumped a couple thousand into RKLB right before the announcement and I am up 5% on 1x. Feel like this perspn should be up at least 30-40%.
Well opportunity cost lost with cash but at least RKLB will be green as fuck.
Depends how quickly they 5x current earnings. If in five years, then the IPO price isn't too bad. If you don't believe that is realistic, then the price is bad. I think it can happen and would like exposure to the industry so it is a safer buy than the alternatives in RKLB and ASTS (which I also hold now).
Its not long term stock. As we get closer and closer to the IPO in June, the media coverage and retail frenzy will only get crazier and crazier If we look at the past leading up to blockbuster IPOS, sympathy plays have gone absolutely crazy. $MARA and other BTC stocks went up over 1,000% in anticipation for the Coinbase IPO, $LCID and other EVs went up over 500% in anticipation for the Rivian IPO, etc. Sure, in the end they were all buy the rumor sell the news, but you play the RUN UP. As we're starting to see this week, Space stocks are beginning to move in the same way ahead of the SpaceX IPO in June. Some examples are $RKLB, $LUNR, UFO, etc.
You’ve surely made a fuck ton of money already OP Been in RKLB and LUNR since like 4$ I’m gonna run through their company rq and I may genuinely do this tmrw morning if we get a little dip
Here’s an interesting Deep dive analysis of RKLB [https://www.reddit.com/r/Fincards/s/0fIx9T0fYe](https://www.reddit.com/r/Fincards/s/0fIx9T0fYe)
Artemis 2 should push RKLB to 80$
Absolutely gooning to the thought of RKLB hitting 100 when this stuff dies down
I was able to grab a chunk of RKLB at $58 when it was straddling the 200SMA. Still watching to see if it will touch again but doubtful. But overall, even with current market conditions, space stocks seem to be a good sector to dive into longer term.
Yes it will be a wash sale. Probably would be better to put the money in a money market fund or a bond fund for about60 days then then sell the money market or bond fund and then sue the cash to buy RKLB. This should keep you well outside the wash sale window.
Once all this stuff blows over, META and RKLB are looking like buys
Tempted to sell some CSP on RKLB or PL Get some cheaper shares if I get assigned but if they just go up pocket some decent premiums hmmmm
Not sure why people are laughing at a 1.5m revenue figure when ASTS has a 27bn mcap with 70m in revenues (didnt find any forward guidance for them)… about 380x sales multiple, or about 3x as high valution on sales compared to Virgin Galactic… If we’re going to look at revenues, let’s compare the rest in the space (no pun intended). LUNR are expecting ebitda positive this year and 1bn revenues. With a 3bn mcap that’s a very low sales-multiple of approx 3x. As for RKLB, they’re growing 40% and will likely be earnings negative throughout the year. They’re guiding 200m revenues for Q1-26E, which gives us a run rate usd 800m topline for FY26E… Compared to mcap, that’s a sales multiple of just under 50x. I dont look how net debt looks in any of these, but a quick back of the envelope shows RKLB and LUNR as the clearly most interesting plays on valuation, with SPCE on third and ASTS waaaay in the back on fourth place. Not sure why people are saying ASTS is the obvious play in the sector…?
Lol...only dumb people would put something in a company where basically you buy 40% of the company and give 60% to Musk. More valuable than Boeng Airbus LMT and Rayteon...lol...and RKLB and ASTS...and so on... The level off dumbness is amazing...
just saw my first ad in chat gpt, it showed me a garmin gps and utility kit alongside a table compared ASTS and RKLB's product offerings i was tripping out wondering if they were company products for a second GPT is cooked imo
Honestly not sure about that, it could also happen that investors will take their money out of the other space company etf… to go all in in Spacex. So RKLB … could decline. I would look at ARKX instead to invest.
With you on this, going RKLB tho
I think they're gonna price SpaceX IPO at 2.5 trillion or higher because why the fuck not. If you're gonna make up numbers might as well do it at as high of a price you can. Full porting RKLB 1 hr after open on Mondah then selling 1 week after the IPO.
$RKLB brother, in Peter Beck we trust
$RKLB ceo is the GOAT
Up about 20% YTD, basically full port ASTS and RKLB
From Claude: **Bottom line:** The core "sympathy play" thesis has a kernel of logic — space stocks may get a bid into the SpaceX IPO. But the specific trade is riddled with factual errors (IPO price, flight test timeline), misleading comparisons (MARA/Coinbase, CVNA), and ignores critical risks: massive dilution (shares outstanding nearly doubled in one year), $90M/quarter cash burn with only \~$145M remaining, a history of broken timelines, and analyst consensus at "Reduce" with a mean target around $3.26. The 400-bagger framing is lottery-ticket math dressed up as DD. If you wanted to play the SpaceX sympathy angle, RKLB or the UFO ETF are probably cleaner vehicles. SPCE as a 400x target is peak WSB hopium.
RKLB has a higher correlation to 'space moves' so it would be a better candidate for this kind of play.
I prefer to bet on RKLB LUNR easy money less risk then Virgin
I feel like PL gets a bigger % boost than RKLB or LUNR
Yea I think Thursday was the day the SpaceX run-up started on all Space stocks. Options for everything was going crazy even $RKLB, $LUNR, etc
Continue buying back what I sold early last month; VXUS, VOO and some JEPQ. If RKLB and ASTS dip again, buy again and sell for 10-15% profit a week later, again.
Your an idiot virgin galactic is dogshit, RKLB is the play for this assuming we don’t have an oil induced economic recession.
Because LUNR is actually affected by Artemis' success. LUNR's CLPS services and LTV are directly connected to the future of the Artemis program - therefore a successful launch resulted in a big spike, as a successful launch means the program is continuing on schedule. All the companies that OP cited are deeply diversified space companies, offering either launch or infrastructural services that will play a pivotal role in national defence or NASA's Moon and Mars programs. OP is using that as DD to justify a huge run up for a space tourism company that offers nothing more than some taster flights for the ultra rich. There is nothing that it offers that could make it remotely comparable to RKLB or LUNR - two companies that will play a huge role in the space economy of the future. This might honestly be the worst DD I've ever read. He'll probably make some money from it lmao
I’ve sold everything except my 4 main holdings: NBIS, RKLB, ONDS. They are all high beta, yes, but I’m planning on holding these long term. Selling these now would have huge short term cap gains tax.
oh this is definitely working out. LUNR moved for Artemis. Thinking ASTS also moves for SpaceX along with RKLB and LUNR
I mean just price out calls for RKLB in July lol
People shit on Chamath and rightly so, because almost everything he touched went to shit. But then people don't mention the few success stories: RKLB was a Chamath SPAC too, wasn't it?
Not a bad thesis and I’ll definitely put this on my watchlist. I’m curious though, do you think TSLA is a proxy today for SpaceX and if so do you see it selling off considerably as investors take their money and go to SpaceX? Also I believe RKLB will continue to pullback as it’s still over priced but I think it will definitely benefit from the IPO as investors find SpaceX way too overvalued or take profits on SpaceX and buy RKLB.

Yeahh me thinks I'll just stick to ASTS and RKLB
Yeahh me thinks I'll just stick to ASTS and RKLB
I have RKLB as well but this one is the best % return possible I see
Just do $RKLB bro😭 $SPCE is literally a joke of a company. If your trade thesis doesn’t work out you can always hold $RKLB long term as its a real company with the best ceo on the world
I'm long RKLB ASTS LUNR that's enough for me
I agree about $RKLB and I have some positions in that as well. TLDR; all space stocks are good riding the SpaceX IPO hype train
I think that RKLB is going to fucking melt faces. They are positioned as a vertically integrated space company, from sensor and hardware manufacturing to launch and maintenance. SpaceX IPO will drive a rerating, and space sector will see rotation as comms and defense tech realize the operational value of systems platforms which can't be destroyed with a 10k drone setup. They just got CHIPS funding because they are one of the only domestic suppliers of triple-junction compound semiconductors, which are rad-hardened super efficient semis needed for space deployment of solar arrays. Also scaling their production of electro-optical sensors. I feel like there is an obvious move towards becoming a defense 'neo-prime', as the acceleration and novelty of defense architecture plans require a move away from slow-moving legacy defense primes and their decade long development cycles to more agile companies who can do what they are asked quickly.
I actually believe in you. If you can wait for a market that feels like it did when you won, you might be able to exceed your starting amounts. If you go beyond that, to 500k after taxes for example, just remember that it is actually generational wealth and also that you are in fact mega fucking retarded. So after that, start over with 5k. If you lose that 5k, wait until you replace it with income + dividends and then try again with the next 5k. It always feels like there will never be another PLTR or RKLB or ASTS (or TSLA or NVDA if you are Pepperidge farm) but there will at least be mini versions of those always, and I know you can find them or do whatever it was you were doing before. Not many people here can obtain and throw away millions of dollars, much less do it twice like you did
Bought RKLB at 1,000 shares for 3.7$
Made 15k euros on RKLB from. Bought 30k at 49 and sold around 80.
So this is basically telling us to buy ASTS and RKLB
To be honest RKLB has changed my life, I started buying in Q4 2024 when it was $7 I’ve amassed nearly 9000 shares at an average of $28, I’ve bought 3 properties with just the profits alone. There’s definitely still room for it to run once Neutron gets going plus there’s been a lot strategic acquisitions which should give them multiple sources of revenue in the near future. Anything below 65-70 is still a great buy.
