0DTE for $780 SPY. Got it, in for 500 contracts.
Comparing individual stocks to indices makes no sense. But even then QQQ and SPY are subject to mean reversion.
JFC, as soon as I buy 1dte SPY calls at 12:00 noon yesterday, the buying abruptly stops. Fuck me in particular.
to think we will get SPY 800 before gta 6
Good question, and the honest answer is: nobody outside the dealers knows their actual book. Everyone estimates it the same way, from public open interest. In practice: 1. Pull the full option chain: OI and IV for every strike and expiry. 2. For each strike, compute gamma (Black-Scholes) and turn it into dollar gamma: gamma x OI x 100 x spot\^2 x 0.01. 3. Apply the standard assumption: customers net buy puts and sell calls, so dealers are long call gamma and short put gamma. Calls count as positive, puts as negative. Sum everything = net GEX. 4. For the flip, recompute net GEX across a grid of hypothetical spot prices and find where it crosses zero. You can do this yourself from any chain feed, or use a provider (FlashAlpha, SpotGamma and others publish it). For splitting a backtest, the important part is timing. Label each trade with the GEX reading from before entry, e.g. the prior close, not the same-day snapshot. Otherwise you leak information into the label. Caveats worth knowing: \- OI updates once a day, so intraday 0DTE flow isn't in it. \- The dealer-side assumption is just that, an assumption. It's wrong for strikes where customers sell puts or buy calls in size. \- Providers disagree. This week the SPY flip was quoted anywhere from \~766 to \~774 depending on the source. When I ran this split on my own SPY trades, the losses did cluster on short-gamma days (7 of the 8 worst). But skipping those days entirely still cost more than it saved, because some of the best trades came from them too. So I'd treat it as a sizing input more than an on/off switch.
SPY is a boomer ETF? Is everything that is most-reasonable with academically supported evidence “boomer” now? Tells you something about degeneracy of this sub
KOSPI only up 24% on the year now, still beating SPY but at this rate it might end the year in the red
#In 2022 tech stocks drilled and drilled all year and Nasdaq was barely down -35% from top to bottom. Now semiconductor stocks are already down -35% from their recent top and SPY is barely down LMAO🤌⛹🏾

SPY 0dtes ftw calls or puts, your choice
Now I know nothing about nothing, but just shot from the hip if you use it all and the value drops, you risk to be margin called which means you would have to either sell at a loss or have to have reserves to cover. Let´s assume your broker allows you to trade on margin on 80% of your port (the value of SPY you hold) if the value of the SPY drops, your available margin will drop and once you reach a threshhold they will demand more money. So you should at least keep a significant buffer. Dimon says JPM can withstand a 40% drop of the stock market. So it seems not unwise to have 40% of your margin not used. If you use the SPY it has about 1% dividend yield and that minus the tax won´t pay for the interest of the loan. The SPY would have to beat the interest and the tax you will have to pay when you sell as well. It should long term, but that also means you´re not speculating on a fast buck, which is usually the case. Since it would be a long term investment you need free cashflow to pay the interest. If you have that high of a lombard loan line and the necessary cashflow you likely have a way higher line for a "normal" loan at lower interest and with no risk of a margin call. The disadvantage being that you usually can´t just pay them back whenever you want and have to pay off the rates (well, there is a risk of the equivalent of a margin call if you can´t pay your rates). If any of this makes sense to you is way above my league, but I strongly suspect if you have that line of credit you know significantly more about it than I do. Personally I experiment with what I call covered margin. I use only as much margin as I could pay back with cash I hold. I invest a part of that margin into high dividend yielding stocks which can not only pay off the interest on holding themselves, but also some of the value play I make with the rest. This way I can use my cash reserve without putting it in and can still react to any immediate hit. It´s still risky if two or three hits come together. It´s also pretty late here so I may not make much sense at all.
MU dead while SPY is near ATH. Is it going to 0.5 forward PE when SPY corrects ?
ATHs tomorrow. SPY came back from 745 down to pump. It ain't done pumping
Depends on which levels we rush toward before EOY (820 - 720 on SPY would be the edges for this year).
hey man so arguing just means they’re not making the same shapes at the same time. SPY takes yesterday’s high and QQQ doesn’t. one puts in a new low for the day and the other holds. tech pulling one way while the broad market goes the other, which happens a lot on rotation days. and VIX should be coming down while they rally, so SPY green with VIX green too is a flag easiest way to see it is put all three on one screen and watch whether they confirm each other at the same moments, rather than just whether they’re both green on the chain thing, pull up an option chain for any of them and look at the open interest column. that’s how many contracts exist at each strike. some strikes have far more sitting at them than others, and those are the ones I mean. free to look at on any broker that only tells you where the contracts are though. what it means for direction is the part everyone argues abou
The semis must die so SPY can live
Invest 1 million in SPY get 8% a year pay off mortgage with gains easy like ABC
SPY has to outperform your margin interest. Otherwise it's negative carry
serious question because I've never used margin before: I have access to like $8M margin why would I not just use it all to buy $SPY and rake it in? $SPY has dropped enough for a margin call what, twice this millennium?
Is the record high in the room with us? SPY, QQQ, pretty much everything still down from its peak.
SPY is so fucking strong ?? mean while the Nasdaq is ready to go to 0
Went to a real gym today that’s not a 24/7 neighborhood gym. I felt so small. This must be what small cock penny stock traders feel when they start trading big cock liquid SPY options. Yes better equipment, but realize how cucked I am and how everyone else is bigger.
yeah of course. it’s basically a list of reasons not to i mainly trade indices so if you don't it make not make a lot of sense initially but first is whether SPY, SPX and QQQ agree. if they’re pointing different ways I just don’t, and VIX has make sense too. arguing indices is a big caution sign second is where the biggest size on the chain is relative to price. if price is nowhere near it then that level isn’t doing anything today. then whether the day’s set up to extend or to stick. some days moves keep running, some days price gets pinned around the same strikes and chops all session. totally different handling, and if it’s the sticky kind I’m not sitting there waiting for a runner and if there’s two of big levels of exposure roughly the same size in different places I’m often flat. nothing to trade toward when the board can’t pick
Just wait until SPY is weekly oversold. Then it’s time to buy
It's 2028, AOC and Tucker Carlson are battling it out for prez.

US debt reaches 70 trillion, interest expense is 40% of spending, Sam Altman is once again asking for more ram, the two week Iran war is down to its final year, my portfolio continues moving down and to the right, although SPY has gone vertical

Can we go up 11$ on SPY tomorrow? Please and thank you
MU at 780 while SPY is at ATH is nuts
Funny how they're making SPY look correlated to Kospi. Usually not following each other this closely.
Feels like SPY should be down more than 0.13%.
#In 2022 bear market SPY dropped -25% and Nasdaq dropped -35%. In this bear market Nasdaq is already down -10% and SPY is barely down -2%. By the time SPY is down -25% Nasdaq will be down 90% or more. LMAO🤌⛹🏾
Crazy how the mag 7 dragged SPY down and then everything else lifted it up. Makes you wonder what Spy will look like once sell pressure is off the mag 7/ai trade again
#SPY futes down -0.1%, Nasdaq futes down -1%. God forbid if SPY ever drops -10%, Nasdaq will drop 100%. LMAO🤌⛹🏾
SPY is largely immune. It is too important to go down by a substantial amount.
serious question has there ever been a tech crash but SPY doesn't crash? god help us if boomer stock bubble pops
"Are you aware 3x ETFs aren't meant to be held like this?" Leveraged versions of SPY are actually a valid alternative to margin, as costs of volatilty drags are fairly comparable to margin fees. 🤓☝
Well tech is getting blown up. SPY still holding cause of staples and defense
Dem fake rally over, MOAB put -7% SPY easy
I think if SPY goes unlimited downside I, like everyone else, will be fucked.
Just woke up from a coma. SPY still at 767
I made so much money on 0DTE SPY calls.
Sure SPY. You can go down and screw over my XSP calls. I didn't want to make money anyway. I just wanted to be exit liquidity for someone luckier than I.
Yeah but you could do that with Goog or SPY. NVDAs too risky imo since AI capex is now spooky to investors and Dem sweep means theres gonna be a shit ton of bearish data center moratorium these next few months/years. Tread carefully
SPY came back from 745 ... hold those 780c
Me too.. USO 175 calls and SPY 768 puts over the weekend.
Probably for the best man. SPY and QQQ are heavily weighted in the stocks you’re mentioning. Not sure why you need individual positions when you can have the added benefit of diversification
Bullish for sure - calls! Enough of this bullshit - SPY needs to crack 780 and head on up to 800. Chop chop
Everything on SPY since the last correction looks sketchy. It haunts me.
Thursday prediction is we drill , NQ rejected regaining 200 EMA, rolls over retests low drags down SPY and every BS company who rallied today on some supposed relief & rotation
Hoping SPY hits ath this week
I really dont like how SPY is plateauting but I guess this is better than blow off top.
I've beaten SPY for the last 11 years. sometimes by a solid 7%, other times not. but I've never lost to SPY. is it worth the effort? not once I hit about $700k, then I started slowly moving into broad market.
15k up on SPY today twice, 730 left at close. Nice job.
From "down 20k" to up 22k overnight. SPY's version of a jump scare with a cash prize.
770 SPY 0dte calls for run to 778 or 781 highs
What made you choose SPX instead of SPY with only $1300 of capital?
ah the classic "snatching defeat from the jaws of victory" play, i know it well that after-hours hopium is the real killer, watching it bounce and thinking "nah it'll go higher" while it just slowly bleeds out. did the same thing with some SPY calls a few months back, ended up holding through close and waking up to a nice fat zero up 60k on the month though you're still deep in the green, one bad day doesn't wipe that unless you let it get in your head and start revenge trading tomorrow. the fact you're calling yourself an idiot means you've already learned the expensive lesson, just don't pay for it twice
Just do SPY. Better yet, don’t do options.
OK, I'll bite. A - "You bet". You didn't invest, you didn't do research, you didn't diversify, you didn't zoom out and look at the rest of the real world economy. You were gambling. B - I worked around Data Centers before anyone else had ever heard of them. Data Centers aren't going anywhere. You can't type a Reddit post, pump gas into your car, log into your bank, pay your insurance bill, shop at Target, or text your Mom without Data Centers. The difference now is there's probably going to be some regulation and oversight on Data Center construction, environmental impacts, regulated utility involvement, financing, and the unchecked greed and corruption that has been happening for the last 10 years or so. And I say that as someone who \*fully\* supports the need for data centers, but knows we need said regulation and oversight. There's also going to probably some changes at the SEC and some investigations into some shenanigans, and this circular financing and hoopla is probably coming to an end. C - You sold some stocks at a 25% loss. That was foolish - only you can know if your foolishness was on the buy side, the sell side, improper risk management, or D) all of the above. I'll use VRT as the example cuz it looks like it had a bit of a wild day. I'm not currently in it, but if I had not been going through cancer treatment when they went public, I would have taken out a second mortgage to invest, and done quite well. If you sold today, that means you probably bought in around $276 - so April 2026, August 2026, or last Thursday. VRT ain't going anwywhere bro, and neither are Data Centers. Are companies being revalued right now? Absolutely. Does that happen across various sectors from time to time? Absolutely. Could this bounce back next week? Yep. Could we all take a step back and realize we can't eat microchips for breakfast and mop the floors with semiconductors? Yep. I challenge you to step outside of whatever building you're in right now. Look around at the rest of what's happening out there. There's a lot happening out there. Christ, look in your fridge and under your kitchen sink. There's like 10 companies right there you can invest in. What do you do for work? What publicly traded companies do you deal with every day? Which ones do you like and think are doing good things? What car do you drive? What services do you use every day that you think are being innovative enough to grow substantially over the next 10 years? If you can't do any of that, I suggest the one piece of advice I can't stand. And that is to take the remaining 70% of your money and put it in a broad ETF (like VTI or SPY) and don't look at it again for 20 years.
SPY calls and CVX poots before the election was soooo obvious....
Gonna wake up tomorrow with SPY over 780

I literally sold all my SPY yesterday to buy the dip on SOXL. What happens the next day? SPX +1.5%, SOXL -9%. Fuck me.
I need SPY pumping over the next few hours. Thank you for your matter to this attention.
I'm getting a little concerned that SPY hasn't resumed pumping yet going in the futes.
rotation from ai stocks to other stocks is actively happening. that's why SPY is holding steady. strait has been closed for a while and market doesn't care so that's irrelevant. what's not priced in is number of hikes in 2027. I think bulls will control remainder of 2026. 2027 could be a repeat of 2022
If semis and memory catch a bid tomorrow, SPY is back to ATHs

$SPX $7900 EOM calls. Book it. I bought a couple today. if market dips tomorrow, I buy some more. SPY is more likely to create a new ATH. market ain't crashing until next year
SPY pumping. The world is healing.
An overnight stop would not guarantee protection: SPY options can reprice sharply on the opening gap, and 1DTE puts have very little time value left. What was your put strike and entry price?
The fact that I’m deep red after a 1,5% day for SPY is fucking insane.
