Is it better to buy SPX extended or SPY 1 dte? Even after spy pump I don’t barely see any profit cause of low liquidity
If you’re buying shares on companies you don’t expect to go bankrupt and you’re selling either your position size is too large relative to your livable equity, or you have no tolerance for pain and should just buy SPY/QQQ/VOO. Literally never sell out of a company that you think sticks around for years/decades to come.
They bust over .3% changes because their options allow them to use 75 bucks and leverage it to an extremely high degree but only if SPY or whatever instrument moves quickly enough in a short enough time
I need a quick dip to 453 on SPY to load up on calls. Anyone have Barron's number?
I stopped believing nearly 2 decades ago but, only Jesus could save my port right now. IF SPY RALLIES 2% TOMORROW, MOSQUE ON FRIDAY, SINAGOG ON SATURDAY AND CHURCH ON SUNDAY EVERY WEEK. SHOW ME YOUR THING
Why do SPX extended contracts pump so slowly even when there are massively green SPY candles?
ASML having bad earnings in 45 mins is the last chance for ber. And there is 0.00001% chance of that happening. Very realistic scenario will be SPY opening at 760 and QQQ at 735 tomorrow if ASML and PPI come in well.
These IAG calls were just at $1.2 earlier today, so if it goes back to that, this would be worth $30k...would SPY calls give me a similar return?
If you have a 30 year time horizon, you can be more aggressive than just investing in the S&P, while also being more diversified. Go to portfoliolabs and back test any typical SPX fund (VOO, SPY, FXAIX) vs a large growth/momentum fund like QQQM, SPYG, SCHG, SPMO etc., I think you’d be pretty surprised at the results. Also worth looking at year to date performance of SPX vs other major indices. Russell 2000 is up 20% while SPX is up around 10%. Emerging markets are up almost 23%. In fact, of all the major indices, SPX is only above the Dow for the year. My point is, diversification doesn’t just mean ‘add bonds’, equities are a very diverse asset class. SPX is fine, most long term investors have money in VOO or SPY or whatever (including myself), but you don’t have to limit yourself to it.
Better could have invested that 5k+ into Apple or JPM or SPY 760C for October
I was wondering how high frequency. I trade 0dte SPY a few times a week when I love the setup, usually spend $100-500 per trade. 300k contracts is a horse of a different color...I appreciate the dreaminess of your experience
Brudda ive been putting my money into VOO SPY and QQQ but mostly VOO, I have learned my lesson through trial and dickheadery and I’m a believer in index funds holding my portfolio up instead of palantir and speculative stocks
VOO , QQQ , SPY consolidation diversification these are the things that you seek
How much more money would you have if you had just bought SPY shares whenever you started trading options
I have 25 SPY 750P for tomorrow. What are my changes . I even tried to reverse myself my putting banbet of +1% for tomorrow
SPY went up like 20% in 3 months and has just been consolidating for a little the last month. Should it just always go up at at least a 45 degree angle or something?
Yes I can turn it off but I won't. The mistake was on the order entry defaulting to 100 shares which is kind of the gold standard if you want to sell calls. ODE has a strong allure. I've traded them in the paper account and seen astronomical gains. But in the real world the risk is real. SPY is good because the volume is high on the options trades and that keeps the bid ask spreads tight. It took me nearly a year to understand options. I still don't. I just look for .7 delta and low IV. I usually close them out same day. But the good thing about deep in the money long strikes is you have time to average down. I will average down if i'm 5-6 hundred down on the play. 2 months out is best if you can get the bid. I've seen strange movements I dont understand on the wide spreads. For example, I've seen the underlying go up while the option gain goes down on a call. and also seen the option gain go up on a declining underlying. Pretty sure it's because of low volume on the long dated spy calls with wide spreads
SPY 755 tomorrow end of day. You heard it here first.
I was told SPY was 755, was going to sell my SPX calls...but someone lied to me
SPY gonna pull an IBM tomorrow
30% is fantastic. Yeah. I meant to say that I don't have margins on for that reason. But you understood. I've never signed up for them. I am scared of myself with more power. I only recently got into options. Made money this week on SOXS so far. Yeah,seems like you'd almost have to have margins to play the SPY. But I see a lot of posts where guys make big bank on tiny movement of the SPY. But...they also risked bank. Pure gamble at that point. Coin flip on the ODTEs. Well keep up the good work. Can you turn margin on and off at will over there? That might be the way to go.
I have only dipped into margin a few times. I should probably turn it off but I like having it available. I will scalp an options trade for a hundred bucks in a hurry. I mostly buy deep ITM at lease a one month strike. I like .7 delta. SPY. I'm having some trouble figuring out the wide spreads and usually make the bid and wait. I'm up 30% year to date
Agreed. Like META or MSFT rn.... my personal prediction: SPY QQQ drop 2% on Friday while NFLX pops 15% on earnings. They will get revenue and user growth beats.
i just dont see SPY ever breaking 750 and going below ever. It has successfully shrugged off anything which can be thrown at it. SPY 800 in next month and SPY 1000 in 2027 are conservative targets LMAO
Im doing SPYM instead of SPY. Its around 88 compared to SPY being 750. They are basically the same thing except SPY is more for traders because it has more liquidity.
Can anyone tell me what made SPY pop a little at the end there? Did trump say there's another truce or something?
Stop playing options, go only shares now and only Mag 7 or SPY ETF. You are having a bad time, stop trading for sometime.
Anybody just see the SPY after hours?
Instead of putting say 10k into DRAM. You can put 5k into 2x RAM. And have cash/ rest in SPY.
SPY +2% day is long overdue....
Holy shit I open the app and see IBM red line thought it was after hours SPY LOL
Made $1280 today just playing SPY and QQQ calls and puts throughout the day 😂
My brother in Christ SPY rallied to the fucking heavens when our orange boy said that the deal is on the table like a month ago tf happened? Do we just want them to die now lmao
Sometimes I like to look at the SPY all-time chart to feel better.
Wait so bombing them now *raises* SPY?
So it indeed was bullish, nearly $20 move on SPY

What’s your strategy been and how has it been going? I started retirement saving late (only have a small pension amount before changing careers) and have been loading up on FXAIX in my Roth IRA and 401k since I opened them. Everyone says diversify your portfolio but SPY historically yields 10% and I have 30 years left in the game before my target retirement date.
SPY -2% tomorrow and I’ll stick a Toyota Grand Highlander up my ass
SPY is down 7 Wednesdays in a row. Core PPI tomorrow which will be benign. I think we will get a green Wednesday after all.
Up and down nearly 0.5% on SPY 4 times throughout the day?
if by 2DTE you mean July 16th puts (not 17th) then you're losing anywhere between 33% to 80% overnight to theta tomorrow depending on how far OTM you are, would need a substantial move to offset that of at least 2-3 dollars down on SPY to break even

Not necessarily. With VTI you get VOO PLUS a ton of small and mid caps. There is something called the size premium which says small caps will return more than large caps - and you can see that in the chart I posted. Since 2001, VTI returned 60% more than SPY which is a lot.
What do you guys think about my SPY 753 calls expiring tomorrow
I had a dream that SPY was over $760 by Friday. So let it be written. So let it be done.
My entire TFSA is in SPY
#I love how every stock faded in the last hour but SPY still magically managed to end at day's high LMAO🤌
Like the share price ? That’s just what it is lol… in reality it doesn’t matter, although a lot of people think more shares is better and it can be a weird thought experiment. But mathematically, having 1 share at $500, and 5 shares at $100 is the exact same. If you return 10% in a year, either way you still have $550. If you just like having higher share counts, there’s other ETFs that track the same things, but VOO, VTI, SPY, VT are generally the most common.
I bout SPY puts.... Your welcome!
How does this affect my SPY calls?
SPY is the 500 largest US companies. VT is I believe between 4000-5000 companies all over the world. The US has seen massive growth in the 2010s, outperforming international. There are times it’s the other way around, and there are times they are about equal. SPY, VOO, etc., you only return what the US does. VT you return what the world does. And VTI you return what everyone *except* the US does
That'd have a SPY7DTE plate before you have to sell it to cover your margin calls for the worse M3
OTM 0dte spread tomorrow on SPY at open. Jerkoff is addicted to moving the market.
For their next trick, SPY opens tomorrow above today’s high
Lmao end of day price action is hilarious. Held SPY 752Cs that went from ITM to OTM in the last 10 seconds. Went from up 50% to down 50% in a flash.
YOLO 2k SPY 750p 7/15 . See u next week otherwise

I’d be shocked if RDDT isn’t included in S&P next quarter. Only thing making me doubt that would be SPY being overweight tech but I don’t see a more deserving company.
SPY running back to its former lover, 750.

If J.Powell was still Fed Chairman then he will show the market his Green Dragon Dick and SPY/QQQ should pump 10% right now.
Weird that IBM crash didn’t really impact rest of tech. If JPM gave this kind of dud announcement all of financials today would be deep red along with SPY. Part of me wonders if our retard market just has delayed reaction like oil prices.
