Closed strait = *talks going well* tweet soon = SPY+1% 🤌
ADPV ETF is cool because it goes after strong momentum and relative strength but goes full into cash every time the SPY goes below the 200 day moving average. If you're concerned the markets will go through a bear market. This ETF is designed to be in cash during that time (defined by being in cash) Once markets are back above 200 day moving average then it will go back to picking the 25 strongest momentum and relative strength stocks.
SPY “backed by the power and might of the USA”
With patience, means even SPY will outrun it over 5 years.
710P? You need SPY to go down over 6.5%? that shit is going to be down even if spy is down
The rulebook says close before expiration because gamma goes vertical in the last week. At 80-100 DTE the position is smooth and your theta edge is stable; in the final few days a 0.3-0.5% SPX move can swing P&L by more than your original max profit. The distribution goes from roughly Gaussian around expected theta to essentially binary on where price pins. Two extra wrinkles: AM-settled SPX (standard monthlies) has SET risk, where opening prints on expiration morning can land materially away from Thursday’s close and flip winners to losers. SPY calendars pin exactly at the short strike, and since SPY is American-style, an ITM short near expiration puts you in “pay up under high gamma or take assignment” territory. Closing 1-2 days early is the standard compromise: you give up the last of the theta but dodge both the peak-gamma days and settlement risk. Most systematic traders exit at a % of max or a DTE trigger (21 DTE is common) rather than fight the final week.

It’s in the post 😭, 35% QQQ and 3% SPY
Unless a nuke or boots on the ground SPY will still go to 770

What are we buying on the war dip? When does it bottom, SPY to 720 and then next week back to 750
Considering SPY broke 750 and some, I don’t think the market cares about Iran. Ai carries the market right now. Without it everything would have been fucked a while ago.

# Straits closed again boys. OIL -10%, SPY 800 on Monday 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Axios has the news release scheduled for 2 hours before market open that talks are ongoing well, ceasefire is back on, hormuz is open if you cross it by air etc. SPY should open 0.5% up.
Imagine losing 1.5m while you could have just put it in SPY and have over 2m now. Thats what you should tell him.
honeslty, people like this that are dead set on playing the options game should join theta gang and wheel some boring shit like SPY
CPI always finds a way to surprise the people who think they got it figured out. Everyone staring at gas prices while the real action is in 47 other line items nobody talks about. If core comes in at.4, treasuries get smoked first. Equity puts work too but the bond move is cleaner, less noise from whatever random algo nonsense is happening in SPY that day.
I looked at SPY and a solid handful of individual stocks. Albeit many were high volatility tech but even a pretty stable industrial had shit premiums. I want to play SPY options for fun but I'm not seeing anything attractive at any date. Calls or puts.
then WSB buys puts at the bottom and SPY rips 10% intraday
I think Charlie Mungus also said once during one of the Berkshire Hathaway conferences "I always buy 1DTE ATM SPY options, there's no bigger rush on this earth"
He could do well just buy SPY LEAP calls. No reason to be f@cking around with short term calls smh
Barak Ravid reported that all shipping lanes are now open in strait and final approval is pending. That's a good enough apology, please please pump SPY to 760 and above.
Boring weekend so far. 1% up on SPY and 2% up on QQQ if nothing regarded happens.
VOO (instead of SPY) and QQQM (instead of QQQ) because they have lower expense ratio but invest in same underlying indices.
LMAO retards downvoting you. WTI to $500, SPY to $150
There are 2.8 million Put contracts expiring on Friday this coming week. There are 730k Call contracts expiring on Friday. A ratio this skewed is basically fuel for a prolonged bleed upwards until something actually significant happens. VIX at 15, too. Flat/Melt Up all week. A single VIX spike this week sends $215bn worth of raw capital rocketing upwards in value. Best we might get is a few tiny spikes to soak up liquidity and keep the train rolling up. Just going on raw open interest numbers this week, it would take over a quarter of a trillion USD in selling pressure to push SPY down past current exposures. Possible, but SPY has been a liquidity sponge the past 2 weeks.
0DTE SPY calls and forget about it
people that pay money to read his substack please just redirect that money to SPY calls

WSB is 1-0 predicting SPY up or down https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/s/Dgr4qAkR08 Upvote if SPY up next week Downvote if SPY down next week
SPY 825 before midterms.....
Dont you think that depends on your diversification…? 🤔 eg. if you already have financial sector ETFs then maybe add a QQQ or QQQM ? but if you want broad U.S. that’s your VOO or SPY… very different. Maths your expense ratio and compounding in an excel if it makes your decision-making FEEL more CONTROLLED. 😵💫
VIX 15 and some of the large caps are starting to run so probably SPY 780
I feel like next week we will get our decision on where market wants to go. Either it’s the start of SPY 780 or back down to SPY 720
What are you on about? Obviously SPY should be treated differently because pin risk exists and SPY is not cash settled. Closing out cash settled options before expiration is not necessary in many, many scenarios. Your argument supports my claim, and, like I’ve shared already, I understand how these contracts are settled.
Predictions: NVDA -> 220 (next week) SPY -> 760 (next week) RCAT -> 15 (earnings) AVEX -> 20 (earnings) This is not financial advice, clearly. This is dementia
SPY has more volume during afterhours and premarket than it does in actual market trading times lmao
SPY is up only 10.51% on the year. And so many businesses are far lower than ATH... We can easily do 850 this year if earnings season is stellar...
What are the odds SPY runs up 20% in the next few months?
I kept $25 in my account this morning to gamble and a SPY put got me $100. I then gave it all back by the end of the day so I’m right there too pal
We seem to be up on both SPY & QQQ, not sure why. Hyperliquid
If “we” is your portfolio, then sure, it’s possible. But SPY and VTI are down less than 1% from June 2nd all time highs.
I moved to Delta Neutral income trades and, finally, I became consistent! I have losing trades, but the overall account balance is positive; growing every month! I am now focused on SPX and SPY (no more options on stocks). I learned the SPX Best trade and SPY Ride strategies and it made me a difference. These strategies use longer dated options that gives highly flexibility on adjustments to reduce risk along the way. Avoid 0 DTE by all means!

Standard advice for young people who don't want to spend hours researching stocks is to just buy a broad market index fund. VOO is Vanguard's version of the S&P 500 which is the 500 biggest US public companies. SPY is the same thing with a different name. QQQ is the 100 biggest companies on the Nasdaq which is more tech focused. They have significant overlap (I think almost every stock in QQQ is also in VOO). If you think tech will outperform the broader market, you should buy QQQ. If you think it will underperform, pick VOO. Ultimately, your decision won't matter too much, one way or another. When you have a small portfolio, contributions and savings matter the most. Once your portfolio is larger than 100k, then investing decisions start to matter more. (Also, At your age, your primary focus should be investing in yourself so that you can earn more money in the future (college, apprenticeships, etc.))
but the ghey bears SPY shorts have stops at ATH that needs to be hit
Lost $1700 on SPY and QQQ puts value but still holding SPY $754 puts and QQQ $723 puts expiring on 7/14
Statistically better to invest at ATH (if it’s SPY) 🌚
SPY pushing towards ATHs. What’s up with the volume though?
Bank earnings... TSM, ASML, NFLX, UNH SPY 800
If you’re eyeing memory, just buy DRAM and sell in two years or right before the bottle neck clears. If you’re long, go with SPY or VOO. Good luck, kid.

Are meta and NVDA the only reason SPY and QQQ were green today because everything else is blood red
I was trying to scalp SPY futures all day and just slow bled all afternoon.
SPY calls everyday until it drops
Options an be exercised after the market close, and sudden price movements make OTM options ITM. Yes, I had the joy of being assigned 100 shares of SPY a few weeks ago and lost close to a thousand the following Monday AM when SPY dropped when I closed the position.
# Hopefully the Ukrainians will take care of the Russian refineries and oil well. We definitely need oil high. Lets take WTI to $500. That will surely take down SPY to $250 and QQQ to $150.
Crushed it. Held MU puts overnight and scooped up SPY calls on the dip
Can someone explain how they made money on this? I just checked SPY and it never went below 750. I don’t get it.
753 breakeven price. SPY is volatile enough that it should touch those prices again. You could use the "simulate my returns" options analyzer to guesstimate a good ask price. Put the sell order in ahead of time for what you think you can sell it for at BE or profit... then adjust as necessary on monday.

I can confirm. Mine was three weeks ago - SPY 0de put made me $2,400 and QQQ calls made me $1,800. It’s been all downhill from there.
The volume on [$SPY](https://aimytrade.io/ticker/spy?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=comment&utm_campaign=SmallStreetBets&utm_term=SPY&utm_content=template_1783723524249_j5j50z) is what got me looking. The volatility around it is really the whole story.
