You’ll get your money back by buying SPY. You’ll keep losing if you keep gambling. But you do you, I come here to watch people lose money.
God SPY is only down around 2% from its highs, can you imagine when the bubble pops
I have 25k and no positions not even SPY

SPY is being held up now by defensive sectors such as $WMT & Healthcare -$LLY. Hence it's barely off 2% ATH.
My guy thats a 13.5% drop on SPY... If this happens im giving you half of my 740 put 🤣🤣
Him calling it "Super Intelligence" was the biggest top signal ever. My SPY 660 puts will be deeply in the money tomorrow.
SPY is going to die on Monday. Watch

S&P500 2x ETF. Volatility drag has historically only reduced gains by 0.5% over any length of horizon, and so it essentially gives you 1.5x SPY returns long-term.
McDonald’s and Oct 23 SPY puts
SPY is barely down from ATH, this is nothing. Wake me up when SPY hits 650.
I pick stocks okay but I have zero conviction if they start to go down. (MRNA was my biggest holding last year) These days I just buy SPY calls when I want more exposure
Hoping to make a ton on 0DTE SPY puts again this week 🤤
Several hundred SPY shares I keep as a "dont touch this ever" nest egg but I do sell 0DTE CCs every day to make enough to pay for lunch. Also got 51x AXP 'FEB 2027 350Cs for my largest derivative position

Means money from France will go to America, aka Dow, Nasdaq and SPY. CALLS.
I have 3,000 shares of NVDA at $12. Survivor bias. Otherwise it’s mostly VT and SPY.
it's cause SPY is only down a little bit. QQQ is more indicative and Nasdaq 100. All of AI getting killed but most people aren't concentrated in those names.
:kek: I wish. I've almost roundtripped since June and my port is 60% from ATH. Still beating SPY for now though
How do I know it's going to underperform over time? If we have an AI crash that wipes out 50-60% of the SPY, my SCHD will not be underperforming
Dipcels when SPY is only 2% off ATH: TAKE MY MONEY
You said, “The wheel is terrible all around and doing it with borrowed money is just leveraging an already dumb idea. So many people doing the wheel quit in disgust every time there is a downturn in the market.” I say that it’s most important, albeit most stressful, to continue to sellputsthencalls in a “downturn.” As I sell CSPs & CCs vs SPY (exclusively) in my IRA, I want to beat a buy & hold of SPY. Yet I concede that it’s hardly possible to do so when SPY goes through the roof. But in all other outcomes it’s very possible to best B&H, including in a “downturn.” It’s in these other outcomes that wheeling earns its keep.
Ah, but they behave very differently on different days. SCHD historical drawdown (all time, not Oct 2011) SCHD -33% vs SPY: -57% vs QQQ: 83%, conversely QQQs peak performance was 930% vs 460% SPY vs 327% SCHD since October 2011 when SCHD was first launched. SCHD is generally more insulated from volatility, SPY is in the middle, and QQQ is highly sensitive to rate decisions and risk-on vs off narratives. I generally gamble SPY and QQQ options while SCHD doesn't really have options liquidity, hence why I use all 3 for different purposes and at different times! Hope that helps.
VTI or ITOT are much better tax loss partners for SPY.
I’m just a big healthy raging bull this week. That is VERY eager to take down the healthy bear that came out of hibernation this past week. Don’t mind me. SPY 777 EOW
SPY has essentially every stock that are in the other two. So you can just use one.
Jesus, I can barely keep track of one ticker. How could you possibly manage this many? Just stick to two or three things you really like and gamble all your money on that. I personally stick to just SPY SCHD and QQQ for both gambling and long term investing
Buying shit like uvix calls a few months out or week dated SPY puts on green days and just putting in 2x or 3x limit sales immediately is free money. Not gonna lie was a bit nervous for my UVIX calls but they sold Fri.
This is not really that abnormal. By nature individual stocks do not stay at ATH always. I can’t even imagine what this sub is going to look like if SPY is down 50%.
Perhaps buying SPY calls at close was foolish 😕
I'm looking at Nasdaq more, but I don't think SPY is safe from knock-on effects, despite being more solid right now.
On Monday open buy 105k worth of 0DTE SPY options. You can turn that into over $1m.
Wait for vix to chill just a bit. Wait for really any appreciable intraday dip in SPY. Buy $105,000 worth of 0 DTE calls, the next strike up from ITM. Congrats, you probably have made back half your losses in the next 20-30 mins. Or, you are actually answering the bankruptcy door. Either way, you’ll know where you stand.
Bruh fake list no AI sex robots. And what about semis and SPY? And where am I going to eat out this Friday. Like the important shit.
Everything reminds me of her (SPY 250) 😉
Monday closing price SPY: 650 QQQ: 500 MU: 500 SNDK: 800 NVDA: 150 SPCX: 0.99
I just know we will be testing 774 on SPY next week sometime and 726ish on QQQ. Just like when we reached ATH last week and everyone was so sure it would come back to the 760s well here we are. See you back at the top. Play accordingly
84% of SP500 stocks 10% or more from ATH, 47% are more than 30% from ATH. SPY being held up by a few big names, the correction already happened it just isnt showing yet
holy shit that's creepy af 🤣 SPY to 0 confirmed
If you had put your $50k tesler roadster deposit into SPY back in 2017 you'd have almost $200k today, but instead you have still no tesler roadster
Cyber stalking means SPY 780 Monday
Black Monday is canceled, we might instead get a 1% bounce $SPY Every Monday crash was AFTER the market was falling 1987 — Dow was already -17% off its peak 1929 — already -21% off the peak 2008 — already -40% off the 2007 high The big red day was the middle of the collapse, not the start. The real resemblance is October 2025 — SPY was ~3% off its ATH, just like now. If it repeats, Monday gives us a +1% bounce. Not a Black Monday
On Monday we get a small recovery into open, on open we dump a little bit to trap the bears, then recover all day back to SPY 770.
Under 100%? I was late for the move and still managed to hit 700% on SPY
Random Iranian guy, Pakistani guy and Omani guy walk into a bar. SPY +3%
No one in their right mind that has been invested for the past 5 years but especially for the past decade should keep a substantial amount of their port in stocks here. Imagine profiting so insanely off one of the greatest bull runs in history, with so much market manipulation, cash injection, hype and mania needed to get here and you dont take these ill gotten profits. Like that level of greed is insane, I sold most of what I had near SPY 700 the first time and just been playing options since and Im very happy to continue doing so until the market becomes a place for sound long term investments based on financials and boring stuff again. The gains in the last 7 years since covid have been extraordinary and uncharacteristic, anyone that remains searching for even more and even higher and asserts that the market will literally never stop doing what it has been is so greedy its unreal.
> You can't buy "substantially identical" stocks or it would trigger a wash sale. So what do you buy? There are a few things being mixed together. The "substantially identical" and wash sale issue typically refers to *funds.* Like VOO, IVV, and SPY; all S&P 500 tracking ETFs. Those would probably be considered substantially identical, whereas a total US market fund and S&P fund are *highly correlated in price movement* but not identical for composition. Individual stocks themselves aren't substantially identical, other than maybe some edge cases I haven't considered. Exxon and Chevron are in the same industry, similar-ish market cap in the grand scheme of things, but they're still two totally separate companies. I can't speak to the rule sets in place in the major brokerages and how their tax loss harvesting engines work. How they decide to sell X holding and buy Y, and what subset of say a US large cap index. I can say though that the results can be substantial. Last year I had ~9% of the account size in harvested losses while tracking the S&P.
Since covid I basically just bought whatever triple leveraged stock was beat down the most during down periods - TQQQ, FNGA (FNGU now), TECL, SOXL, and sold once it got close to previous ATHs and sat in something boring like SPY to ride out any more potential gains. Although I'll admit this last bull run has caught me off guard rising to higher ATHs while real trouble is brewing. I just want a good re-entry point into one of the leveraged stocks again lmao
go ahead and invest in SPY. u got about 2-3 atocks holding things up right now while 60-70% of stocks are down since august 👍
Who thinks the market is crashing when SPY is 2.5% off its ATH?
$780-800 SPY, maybe we roughly established the new ATH
You said, “More people don't do it because the wheel underperforms buy and hold.” I sellputsthencalls vs SPY in my IRA. When SPY goes through the roof, the wheel DOES underperform B&H of SPY. And that is, & MUST BE, the compromise of the wheel. But in the other 4 outcomes - up modestly, flat, down modestly & into the tank - the strategy has a very good chance of beating B&H. Very importantly, when B&H goes into the tank, the wheel generally also loses, but loses less. Because of these “other 4 outcomes,” I continue to sellputsthencalls.
If the daily reset is that bad, why do all of the charts have the exact same structure as the underlying asset? Compare SPXL to SPY, if you buy and hold at any point and simulate it, you still would make a higher return, the trade off is the volatility
SPY calls at open, no hyperbole
Agreed. I tried anyway. All last week I tried to warn people, not that they should sell everything and run away, but that the tech heavy SPY was getting ready to roll over and it was the AI trade that was decelerating. I brought clear & concise evidence that was the case. In response few took it seriously and engaged in conversation about it. The majority simply lob insults. "broke boi" "doomer" "moron" etc. Anything to not examine the evidence...since it makes them feel some kind of way. sigh.
Tsmc, asml and micro dropped due to the news that China is going to flood the market with cheap rams. It was the same reaction when deepseek came out and google and nvidia dropped. Over reaction to hot air. I don’t have any position in tsmc, asml and mu. Bought some SPY yesterday.

I aint saying i love gambling but if SPY decides to open and move to 773-774 on Monday i would be a happy boy
SPY less than 3% from ATH and all I see is people talking about a crash lol
I think it gets worse next week yeah. About another 5% left to go down on QQQ and SPY could start going down too. Then yeah after midterms I also expect a rally
Heads up Starting Monday mega caps and index ETFs options like $SPY $QQQ will have extended trading hours. 7:30 a.m. and 9:25 a.m. ET and 4:00 p.m. to 4:15 p.m. ET.
Were SPY calls and CRWD puts a good idea or na

There's too many people confident that market will go down next week. So it will go up by 5% next week. SPY 800
I have lost $30,000 since liberation day in my one account. I have lost maybe another $15k maybe in other accounts. Every time I think about it I brake down out of shame. Before the chip stocks really started going bananas I had developed a system that was working well. Not huge gains, just enough where I was considering making a day job of it. As stocks blew up with the Ai craze my success rates went down. The last 9 months or so have been so brutal that whatever I was putting money into would reverse immediately. I could take a small loss and it would reverse back or I could try to wait it out and the losses wouldnt stop until I sold, at which point the security or option would reverse. I tried selling calls and puts and everything is so volatile that the option would go ITM and then close to break even. So I would roll out the option and the stock would go the other way. Id lose premium until it wasnt worth doing. Even today - the constant downward SPY trend - i buy one little just OTM put and that is exactly when the reversal started. I had VOO shares slowly losing money for hours so I dumped them and IMMEDIATELY after it there was a $1 spike. These are all small losses but they have added up. I know I over trade but like I said, what I buy starts losing money until I sell. I have been trying to scalp a bit here and there. I’m down to $56k in my retirement. Im about to be 47. If I had never touched my accounts I’d be doing alright for my age. If I think about all the losses I want to kill myself. I put $19,000 in a target retirement plan but Id be losing even more if I had all my money in that. Now I feel like I have to trade to make enough for retirement. Had I done better I was going to take a small early distribution to help fund a divorce so I could escape my awful marriage. I am considering doing a YOLO trade or two but I would off myself if it didnt work out and I am not quite ready to put myself in that position yet. Also, I’d hate to blow that money when I could just leave it for my family. The market has turned into one big suicide machine. I don’t know what happened - i cannot figure out why I became so fucking bad at this. I have wasted so much time. I dont know what to do or how to bounce back. People do it all the time here. The “cursed” feeling has killed my risk tolerance. If anyone is still reading this I could use some advice.
Y’all wanted the pullback, here ya go. All these sideline investors missing gains all year lol SPY (2026 dips) in March $631, June $726, Jul $729, Sept $754…… today $761 SPY will break $800 on next rally.
> I luckily make 10K a month after tax wth my job that I am thankful for, but I am so embarrassed with myself as I have no investments or savings at 33. Well then just don't do this dumb shit again and in a few years you'll have it all saved up again, this time in SPY or ETFs like a sane person. Nothin to cry about just learn a lesson from this
You don’t get from 0 to 1.1m in 7 years through SPY homie lol
Some more context, there's no real magic. Since my window is SO small you can kind of feel if it's going to bounce around. SPY/QQQ tends to bounce off round numbers so if i see it heading towards one I'll set a buy at where the option is likely to be when it's close, take the quick win. I'm always watching the 9EMA first and i'll get puts or calls depending on it's current move up or down when it tests the 9EMA. I've been thinking of how to automate w/ AI and i'll try it eventually but so far it's too much of a "feel".
Why wouldn’t you just put the money in VOO or SPY???
SPY is down 2.5% from ATH and we get posts like these, lmao
It's you, the CFO. I've been meaning to talk to you about my damn SPY calls refund. 🤨
eh the Lehman comp gets thrown around too easily imo, but the circular financing point from Nepalus is the real tell. when the hyperscaler is simultaneously the lender, the customer, and the equity holder propping up its own suppliers, you've basically recreated monoline insurer math from 08 with extra steps. doesn't mean systemic blowup, Nvidia's balance sheet isn't AIG, but it does mean the equity story and the credit story are the same trade now, and nobody's pricing that correlation risk properly. fwiw I trimmed some long-dated SPY calls into this, not because I think it's 2008 but because a 2% day on debt headlines tells you how thin the risk premium cushion actually was.
Stop gambling and get a plan. DCA and hold VOO or SPY. https://preview.redd.it/5l6zcxdxbxvh1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dabe1d834bf209fc1540c8fcbeebcd203c028d93 I sold this for profit later but know it would be worth 40k more now. Get a good entry and plan the exit. Then rinse and repeat. 🔁 Stay away from MEME stocks and garbage.
I need SPY at 780 by end of this week dawg
anyone have SPY guestimates for next week? 755?
says the person insulting me while I never did so, lmao. Anyway I am not even sure how I am supposed to believe you 20x a million dollars account unless you took insane risks. RSP return was 0.34% over the past 5days and that's what you r suggesting me? LMAO 🤌 The real play was noticing that 325 stonks in SPY were red over the past 3months (avg ret -11%). Market simply started rotating on October1st (very convenient day) from leadership into broad, from winners into losers. I've told you bonds and stonks that behave like bonds were a good play and they got an amazing week, while RSP is basically flat. Next week could be different, maybe I buy the dip on AI, maybe I don't, I already reduced some of my exposure to the boring names. and still, I didn't time the market. I simply said "AI stonks here are not good for me, I prefer to buy low risk shit" and guess what happened... TLT is up 3% this week, 7 consecutive green days, huge volume. Just admit you were wrong. Doesn't mean bonds can't go higher next week and tlt crash... but I explained you my reasons and seems people agreed for this week.
Yo, SPY still dropping... what am I going to do?
Omg so jelly i took a loss today because i made terrible SPY bets
NVDA, AMD, Meta up for month. So is SPY.
You’re dumb, have you considered the fact that not everybody is in SPY?
97% still winning. MSCI South Korea national ETF still up +71.19% year over year as of close today. Most of their long term wealth is the equivalent of VOO-and-chill, so yeah, could you imagine SPY being up 71%, even today? They've still good and things are going to have to unwind a lot further before families start locking in gains.
SPY is 2% off all time highs and bears have already crawled out of their Wendy’s dumpsters claiming victory 🤣🤣
At OP’s age, he’s better off 100% in SPY.
