My First Two Weeks Of Options Trading
Mentions
I've been in ASTS since when it was trading for $3 and was happy until Trump and Musk got elected. I thought the Trump admin would spell doom. I'm glad I ignored my feelings and held and bought more on the way up. I missed on RKLB. My brother in law urged me to buy it at $8 and I refused. Now I dunno what to do with that ticker.
ASTS and RKLB play in different risk profiles. RKLB already has proven Electron launches and a growing space-systems business with recurring contracts—execution looks steadier near term, though price can be rich and volatile. ASTS is building satellite‑to‑cell connectivity; if the full constellation goes operational and carrier partnerships scale, its long‑term upside could be larger, but it still faces schedule slippage, heavy capex, and potential dilution. If you’re truly long‑term and can stomach drawdowns, consider diversification, position sizing, and dollar‑cost averaging; if not, broader indexes or a space ETF may fit better.
RKLB is definitely more of a speculative play. That being said it would be asmall portion of my portfolio and my investment horizon is long term so I am willing to take on risk.
If SpaceX is 1.5 trillion then RKLB is hugely undervalued But If Tesla is 1.8 trillion then also almost every other automaker is undervalued
Ultimately that's up to you, but I've calculated the annualized return on cost for each strike and found about $50 strike to be the best value at current premiums, assuming you hold to expiration. a) If you buy 1 call option at $50 strike for $48 premium ($4800 cost), if the stock price rises to $200 at 1/21/28 expiry, your return is about $10,200, or 212% ROC, which is over 100% annualized. If the stock price only rises to $150, you'd see a 53% annualized return. If it rises to $125, it's a 27% annualized return. b) If you purchase 100 shares for $75 ($7500 cost basis), for the same period/price the stock would return $12,500, or 167% ROC, over 80% annualized. If the stock price only rises to $150, you'd see a 49% annualized return. If it rises to $125, it's a 32% annualized return. So you are paying less for the shares in option a) (pun not intended), but seeing a higher return for the value of your money once it gets above about $130. But then the other thing to consider is what your $15k gets you. You can get 3 $50 call options ($14.4k cost) which would net you $30k in our $200 stock price scenario. You can get 200 stocks for $15k, which would earn you $25k under the $200 stock price scenario. If the stock is greater than $200, you will have greater gains from 3 call options than 200 shares, however under a $150 share price it won't be as large of a gap. So it depends on what you think the stock will do. You can also split the choice. The other thing to keep in mind with options is that to get the value, you need to either sell it ITM (which leaves you with the current value of the stock, and possibly greater) or you need to exercise the option and purchase the shares, which requires additional capital (although at only $50/share it's not bad). The gains aren't actually realized until you sell either the call option or the shares. When I calculated RKLB, the options upside wasn't as generous as ASTS, but the ceiling isn't as high on the stock in general.
I am definitely entertained. This brat-bro really hates us Ameri-poors. Should have bought PL or RKLB 😂
ASTS is leaps and bounds a better play than RKLB. Think of SpaceX upcoming IPO, most of that $1.5T value comes from Starlink, not launching rockets. It's all about having a recurring, subscription like, revenue stream. ASTS has it, RKLB doesn't.
I think you nailed it with ai space ocean defense for 2026. Long IREN, RKLB, and KRKNF
Space and semiconductors for long-term play, a lot of Congress members sitting on regulatory committees are buying, look at Nancy Pelosi's faith in $AVGO and $NVDA. I'm 21 and going with one ETF ($SMH for semiconductors, best nonleveraged performer of past decade & +50% YTD), space stocks ($RKLB, $ASTS, $PL), reliable big tech holds ($GOOG, $TSLA, $MSFT), and $CELH because I'm addicted to them (+70% YTD). And even if space doesn't totally blow up in 2026, it's the future and great to hold into the 2030s.
Yea RKLB is almost a sure thing. We’ll see how Neutron goes next year but I just don’t see this company going to Zero ever. They’re winning contracts for their space systems alongside the big boys like Lockheed and then they’ll be competing with SpaceX (alongside Blue Origin) for launch contracts. To me it’s just a no brainer. I could care less for the +\- 10% days. It’s all noise. I care about catalyst. Winning contracts, neutron progress, electron cadence, space systems revenue, etc. I’ve said this in some sub before and I’ll say it here again: I think Rocket Lab will be the one/most obvious company people look back on 10 years from now saying of course they were going to be successful and they wished they bought more.
ASTS is the real space play, not RKLB Starlink is SpaceX cash cow, not rockets ASTS >>>>>>>>> Starlink
I will add more in the 50s, hope it gets there. I feel like market will correct in Jan so RKLB might actually pull back 15-20% which would be great
Yeah me too. This why I hold RKLB in my ROTH
RKLB is less risk, less reward. ASTS has a much higher short term ceiling than RKLB. I hold similar amounts of both with about 20% more ASTS but I think the risk is mostly behind both companies.
The individual stocks that I already own as we enter in 2026: GOOGL, RKLB, ASTS, PATH, UAMY. Additional stocks that I'm planning to buy soon: MU, NBIS, AMPX. Come on guys, I 'm sure 2026 will be great, let's fucking rock n roll 🤟
Both are good, I’m a RKLB fan boy but upon reading more on ASs and TitS it’s also pretty good.
I’m 100% with you. I own 30X more RKLB, but I’m happy to hold both.
Bro. Why would you call him "Sir" Peter Beck?? Do you call Patrick Stewart "Sir" as well? Christopher Lee? Anthony Hopkins? David Attenborough? All of these people have the same title. Do you refer to the King of Saudi Arabia as "His Majesty the King of Saudi Arabia"? You use honorifics for all royals and nobles throughout the world? I'm automatically inclined to not listen to anyone who addresses someone as "Sir" in an informal setting when they aren't even part of the same county or royal system. It's just a sign of mega fanboyism. That said, I do like RKLB as a company. I just wish ppl weren't so dramatic about it.
Wish you all the best man. Putting a few bucks on it can’t hurt. Keep in mind, RKLB and ASTS are different companies and industries entirely
Looking at it another way, lucky you bought RKLB otherwise, you’d have lost even more
🤷♂️ Everything in my portfolio is Roth and Traditional IRA, Roth 401k, HSA, and brokerage, either RKLB (~22%), VOO (~67%), or my company's RSUs (~11%). Just looking into branching out in '26 (but not having it turn into loss porn posts).
RKLB unable to hold its gains 🥲 at least RDW is popping off again
Rapidly catching up? Is not even close. Currently, SpaceX has 4 boosters with at least 30 launches, and another 6 boosters with at least 20 launches. Name another company with reusable rockets that is actually flying commercial payloads at scale, that is actually reaching orbit, and reusing boosters at scale like that (and not some paper rocket). ASTS does not have launch capabilities, and they will need a constellation of hundreds of satellites if they want to stay in LEO and achieve any meaningful capability. (Latency is constrained by the speed of light, and GEO satellites require an orbit of ~32,000km, adding too much latency to the mix, so having a few GEO satellites, like echostar or directv is not a reasonable play for ASTS). ASTS will either end up bankrupt or acquired by someone else. BO could become a reasonably profitable space contractor (basically replacing ULA), but Kuiper at this point remains at their current pace, at least a decade away. (The move to hire Tory Bruno is in line with this). RKLB is a reasonable play, Peter Beck is a great guy, but it will never be (and I don't think they don't want to be) a reasonable competitor to SpaceX. And this is all talking about Falcon 9, not talking about any of the new stuff they're cooking in Texas. I don't like Elon, but I'll throw money behind SpaceX any day.
Damn RKLB is really about to close red isn’t it
I think ASTS is more risky than RKLB. Both are good though
I was of the same mindset for awhile, but it’s a risky bet. I like RKLB but I just swing trade it. I will wait until everything is settled post IPO before adding positions to SpaceX. Been adding Google lately to profit off the IPO since they own a lot of pre IPO shares.
RKLB is volatile enough as is, RKLX is straight up gambling
How many ppl watching a RKLB or ASTS launch? SpaceX will be like Tesla ie a hyped stock that won’t trade under fundamentals and be used for manipulation
This is the way. Lots of people seem to want these to be in competition, I think that's dumb since they aren't providing the same services. ASTS + RKLB would be a powerful SpaceX rival. I think two $30B companies merging into a trillion+ dollar company is a win for everyone.
When TSLA started really taking off in 2020, there were a bunch of EV companies that went public via SPAC with huge valuations because of TSLA hype. Then they mostly all collapsed, I think RIVN is the only one above its SPAC levels. If SpaceX goes public at $1.5T, lets pretend launching is half that and satellite service is the other half (not the case, just for simple example). If RKLB and ASTS are able to offer the same service, then are they both worth $750B? Obviously more nuance than that, you can argue timelines, the Elon multiple, or a bunch of other factors. But there is evidence that a public company booming in one sector often raises the competitions valuations, at least temporarily, as people are looking for the next one.
why can RKLB NEVER fucking hold
What I started doing on my volatile RKLB CC’s is to sell them 3 months out with big upside left. I sold the other day when the stock was at $65 a 90dte CC for $600 a contract @ $90 strike. When I would try to do 7dte to 30dte on RKLB I’d always get blown up on massive moves using .20 delta. For volatile stocks I don’t rely so heavily on delta and look more for all time highs and just giving myself a lot of room.
My crystal ball says RKLB hits 50 before it hits 80 (if ever)
I watched that doc in August ‘24. Bought into RKLB (and still in heavily) starting at $6.73. Started buying PL in the $2s and sold in the $6s because at the time, they were giving away information for free. I didn’t see the profitability in that. Forgot partnerships exist - doh. Started rebuilding my (much smaller) PL position recently.
Definitely not on the scale of RKLB or ASTS… but I am watching PL as well. Got a small piece. Primarily because PL is Alphabet’s second largest holding, just behind ASTS.
And, that's why it'll outperform by 2X. Always inverse Reddit! Retail is foolish. And retail that posts and boasts on social media takes the crown. Plenty of examples: Meta, AMD @ sub-100. RKLB @ 40 just recently. But.. this.. But that.. these pseudo smart FUD comments is exactly when smart money is buying. *"This one is once in lifetime, retirement enabler"* that's when you're the exit liquidity!
RKLB up way more than silver in the last month and bears cheer for silver rug pull lol do they just hate precious metals or something
I'd rather buy other space stocks that will benefit from the attention to the sector (RKLB, ASTS are the bigger ones).
I've got ASTS on my radar too. RKLB is the only one with consistent flight heritage and the Neutron coming online. They’re a magnet for capital right now, and a re-rating is definitely in the cards
I'm long RKLB. SpaceX going public is a massive tailwind for the stock
Would selling RKLB $40 26 FEB CSPs make sense if I want a rklb position
RKLB, you my only friend
ONDS is going to rocket ala RKLB/ASTS in the next couple years IMO.
My entry will be high 50s low 60s for RKLB. It will come back to reality.
RKLB and ASTS both up a good amount today
Current portfolio consists of 100% RKLB
I love RKLB I love the ceo and the whole company
I turned 43k into 710k in RKLB Fkn gimme RKLB $9000 flair
Why is RKLB up 1% but RKLX down 11%? Is this just due to low volume and volatility?
More than doubled the market at a 36% gain YTD. Main winners were CLS, RKLB, GOOGL, AMD. If you had a loss in this bull year you need to seriously consider your investment strategy 😂
RKLB will follow LUNR and go up 10%
You think RKLB is going to fuck off again soon before going on another big run?
RKLB with one final rocket to end the year...
Wow man ridiculous over the top post considering you lost 500 bucks, or nothing as some have commented. You can't sweat what ifs. I sold RKLB for a small loss at $7 and lost more than $500 and didn't lose my shit. In fact I rarely think about it. Shit happens with trading. You're young. Aside from play money, put most of your investment funds in QQQ or VOO and you will be set. I can only wish I had your trading opportunities when I was your age.
Is sold RKLB yesterday y’all are welcome

Remember when RKLB said Neutron was going to launch mid 2025, then late 2025. Then got sued for failing to disclose the delays while making new contracts lmao. 5 star company
I've whooped the S&P this year due to ASTS and RKLB, and EUAD and RYCEY on the Int'l side. We'll see about 2026 :-
Up across the board 50% Main holdings GOOGL RKLB NVDA AAPL HOOD NBIS
Retail investors are driving ASTS and RKLB stocks so high off no earnings or revenue
Same as always. My mini space index LUNR, KRMN, RKLB, ASTS, ATRO, SIDU, PL, RDW, BKSY and a couple others.
Of course, right after purchasing RKLB it drops like its taking a shit on my face
RKLB and MU saved my port this year😮💨😮💨😮💨
Bought 14500 RKLB shares around 3.55 and sold at 4$🥲
No one is going to investigate this when u lose money. Mine just tipped me to go full port $ASTS and $RKLB short calls
I see you here again, haha. Last time you mentioned you were holding RKLB, and I wanted to talk to you about it, but you totally ignored me
There are people like me who full ported into RKLB 🤣

RAWKETS 🚀 ASTS and RKLB def not scams
My non-retirement portfolio is up over 100% this year buying and holding ASTS and RKLB. My retirement portfolio is up over 12% this year holding target date funds
exited in premarket my short $RKLB position from \~1week ago in slight profit and now contemplating whether leaving this stock alone for foreseeable future (pre-neutron) makes sense
Good for you, I got in RKLB around 9 as well and have been quite pleased so far.
I think overwhelmingly positive across portfolios. Quick look shows up nearly 48% this year. Portfolio value roughly $2.1M, breakdown is is roughly 50% funds (index/target/ETF) mostly tax advantaged. 40% stocks, mostly brokerage accounts, 10% other (crypto, etc..). Been a good, albeit a bit volatile, year for index investing all said and done. My heavy winners in stocks are the usual suspects: RKLB (my largest individual holding by a long shot), PLTR (held a lot since \~$13), GOOG (went in heavy around april lows), etc... A couple of more under the radar ones that did well for me UURAF (up about 600%) and SYM (up about 150%). Biggest losers - well, this was the year I decided to put more into crypto. Put about 30k into eth/btc near the top. That one stung a bit. RDDT, I got in late, around september, down probably around 10% on that. PINS fucked me as well.
VOO, RKLB, IREN, ONDS - 35.39% so far in 2025. Heading into 2026 with the same setup.
Up 1300% on RKLB, bought a lot at $5
I decided to exit out of RKLB at very nice gains as I am not going to be able to acquire as much as I wanted originally and moved all in in a single position. Will see what happens over the next year or so.
I lost despite massive gains in RKLB. What brought my downfall: MSTR
RKLB holding up the portfolio.
Stock so regarded that it pulled in POTUS and NVDA for a liftoff but still got beaten by fucking RKLB, GLD, SLV.
Over 200% on RKLB and ASTS. Looking forward to more in 26.
Up 70% ytd. Thank you RIVN, AMD, GOOG, RKLB, and others
ASTS and RKLB are my two highest conviction growth plays. Both are extremely high Beta stocks that will swing in price wildly based on the overall market sentiment as well as company catalysts. They’re undeniably risky investments but both are very likely to pay off in the next 2-3 years if you’re willing to stomach the volatility. As for whether now is the right time to get in, I would DCA if you currently have no position. There are a lot of upcoming catalysts for ASTS (more launches, awards, unlocking committed investments, initial service/revenue) but the overall market could drop the price substantially any time.
