\-20% $SPY tomorrow
Looks like SPY is doing a little triple top Unless we get some momentum tomorrow, I think we chop or dump again Hopefully I'm wrong
I saw a chicken on here predicting a green SPY day when everyone thought red, bought calls, it went well
I can forgive myself for not pulling out when I have a 3-400 dollar gain and waiting for a bigger pump on SPY 0DTEs. But I would literally kms if I turned 9k into 400k and then didn’t sell. OP is a fucking retard
I think it was one of those easier days when there really wasn’t too much red, just going up and no bigger signs of turning around. I remember my options reaching 5k, then it started falling at the end of the day and I sold somewhere at +4.2k. It might have went up after that as well, but seeing that 800 drop I wanted to close out. I usually set my stop limit 1 dollar or half under the current price of the option if it starts running. Want it to have some wiggle room. Then something like META needs a bit more. Actually this monday I also had a similar position, but I fucked it up. Closed at something like +400 profit because I was tilted of losing money to META. At the end of the day my cheap 770-773 SPY calls would have been 3000 dollars.
nah SPY only goes up (the value of our dollar goes down lolol)
I think we’re going to see more ATHs before the end of the year. Record earnings will continue. I’m generally bearish on our long term prospects…whether that’s seeing AI actually generate the trillions of FCF it needs to justify all the capex, or the affordability of our national debt and deficit spending, But I think for now we’re going up to SPY 850 before we see SPY under 750 again. Now that I’ve said this, shits gonna go down bigly and my leaps will be fuck. 🤌
Weekly means buy on Monday, expiry on Friday the same week, and monthly is a month from now for example SPY calls expiring on Oct. 23? Might play it a bit safe, half on weekly/monthlies then the other half 0dte
SPY 0dte. Either I get rich or my landlord isn’t getting a single cent from me.
Yes, and VIX measures how far the market can move and which direction is more likely. Given its 14, under 16, if we look at mean reversion, the chances of this going any lower are very low. The market needs to pull back. By buying this, you are saying the market can move upwards with little to no resistance, making a significant move. VIX up means market falls, VIX down means market rises. Instead of buying options in VIX, it’s better you buy in SPY or QQQ and use VIX as a tool.
🥭 let those Iran dudes on American soil. SPY 800.
I’m calling it - SPY 790 tomorrow
I doubt SPY has a true red day this week. It’s the kind of week where negative news is priced in but not the positive news.
Market is looking for any excuse to set new highs and get to that promised SPY800. I’d say flat tomorrow and set a new high on Thursday.
That gap between SPY and equal weight is worth watching, but it doesn't tell you when the cap-weighted index has to fall. Higher rates tend to hit smaller companies harder because refinancing costs matter more, while mega caps can fund themselves from cash flow. Fwiw, I'd watch whether equal weight starts catching up as the Fed eases; if it doesn't, the breadth issue goes beyond the rate cycle.
Burry loaded up on his shorts. SPY 1000 eow
I think the pushback is mostly about picking the stocks after seeing which ones won. An equally weighted list that returned 910% over 10 years is interesting, but what would the list have been 10 years ago, and would it have included the stocks that fell out of favor? I’m still learning this stuff, so I’d want to see that comparison before treating it as evidence against SPY.
I think the cap-weighting point explains why SPY can be near a high while the equal-weight index is further off its peak. But the September 21 highs-versus-lows number still makes me pause. Does that usually tell you something useful about the broader market, or can it stay that way for a long time?
Today was a breather before SPY 780 tomorrow
SPY is broken. 0% today. 0% futes.

The thing that trips people up here is that VIX options do not settle to spot VIX, they settle to the VIX future for that specific expiry. So the midterm run up only pays you if that particular future moves, which is why jbaker is right to be watching /VXV26 rather than the 14 handle on spot. Second thing: the election is a known date catalyst, so a chunk of the event vol is already sitting in the forward curve. You are not really betting on whether vol rises. You are betting on whether the realized move beats what the term structure has already priced in. That is a much narrower edge than it feels like when you stare at a calm spot VIX. Given that, if your actual thesis is that SPX sells off into the vote, SPY or SPX put spreads express it cleaner than VIX calls. You get the move without fighting futures convergence and roll drag, and you are not the one holding a long vol position through the crush. Selling VIX puts late Oct is the part I would think hardest about. That is short vol into the exact catalyst you think will deliver. If you are right about the run up, that is the trade that hurts. It is the opposite position wearing a hedge costume. Whatever you pick, the crush lands on the print, so a long vol structure has to be monetized into the event, not held through it.
Imagine SPY goes up 70,000% one day. Is it a glitch? What is going on. But would you sell right when you log in? Or would you search headlines waiting to see how high this rocket will go. Then on a moment it crashes back to previous close
Is everyone okay with SPY +2% tomorrow? Or should I call in the -2% strikes?
I’m holding my SPY puts until Friday we’ll see who’s laughing then pal!
A few years ago I was really drunk at a bar, and I saw a bull on the table like a flat keychain. The lights turned green and I took that as a sign. So I bought 5k worth of SPY. Lucky to say it worked out.
Yeah, I think we’re basically saying the same thing. My original “SPY 850 confirmed” was mostly me leaning into the WSB meta of going full Bol Run™. Obviously 850 is not exactly my carefully modeled price target. And I agree that the 7,800 level/momentum matters. If we can’t break it, more chop or some downside is totally reasonable. I just think the setup is still pretty constructive until proven otherwise. Also, genuinely, respect for the actual thoughtful back-and-forth. WSB has trained me to expect “BOL” vs. “SPY 500 EOY” with zero nuance, so it’s refreshing to have someone actually make a coherent argument.
OIL down, SPY down, my Syndrome too is down
bears acting as if big mac’s aren’t going to cost $100 in three years SPY 10000 EOD
Fair point on the 7,800 ceiling, but I think you’re reading the chop as evidence against the bull case when it can just as easily be accumulation & consolidation. We’ve spent 2 months digesting gains while earnings have continued to grow, rather than giving back the prior move. That’s pretty different from a market that’s actually rolling over. Inflation/rates are the obvious catalysts keeping the multiple capped, but if those concerns ease even modestly while earnings keep compounding, there’s a lot of room for the ceiling to break. So I agree 7,800 is the level to watch. I just don’t think “failed breakout = lower” follows automatically. Two months of sideways action after a strong run can be the setup for the next leg rather than the end of the move. SPY 850 is obviously a meme-level target, but I’m not seeing enough here yet to call the bull trend broken.
My SPY puts are already in the money 😂
> Somebody tell me spy price if you take out all ai stocks >> There is no exact official price for an "AI-free" S&P 500 or SPY fund, because major index providers do not publish a separate tracking ticker that strips out artificial intelligence companies.📊 Understanding AI ConcentrationIndex Weight: AI-linked giants (such as Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple, Alphabet, Amazon, and Meta) make up roughly 45% to 51% of the total S&P 500 weighting.The Overlap Problem: Removing "all AI stocks" cleanly is nearly impossible because companies like Apple and Microsoft are deeply embedded in traditional software, hardware, and consumer tech alongside their AI initiatives.Hypothetical Impact: If you completely extracted the market capitalization of core AI drivers, the headline price of SPY would drop sharply—potentially mirroring a severe market correction given how much of recent index gains and earnings growth those specific mega-caps have carried. Given by an AI
SPMO is performance chasing. It’s still concentrated in like 150 companies and exceptionally tech heavy. And as others may have said, you have no foreign market diversification so you are missing out on about 45% of the total world market. They are boring and not flashy, but statistically speaking, broad whole market index funds like VTI, VOO, and VXUS or SPY do better year on year and outperform stock picking or actively managed portfolios. Unless you’re Warren Buffett or insider trading, your portfolio will statistically underperform someone who simply bought index funds.
SPY moved a whole .10 by EOD. Criminal.
Yes, that would be wild. Because if you did that in 1998 or 2005, you'd be crushed. Because if you are wrong on 2 out of 5, you are crushed. It is all about size and risk. First, remember that if you own SPY, right now that is \~28% NVDA, AAPL, MSFT, AMZN, GOOG. Going index already exposes you pretty heavily to these companies. If you want to skew that heavy, I am with you. But skew, not go all in. You can add in some QQQ and lean heavier, while still having diversification support and exposure to up and coming companies (like how 2016 you would have missed NVDA). If you really want to stock pick, make it the secondary. Vast majority of my investments are in broad index funds. That is my wealth. I do have some other, smaller accounts. A trading (not investing) account, and then an account that is my medium term buy and hold - companies that I want to be heavy in. Yes, that account has outperformed the market pretty much every year. However, I have had some horrible, terrible, no good investments in there. If they were sized up to be a tenth of my total portfolio... they would be devastating. But as just a tenth of my side account... the risk is appropriate. If that account went to zero tomorrow, I'm changing vacation plans but not changing retirement plans.
Why would anyone fill up their tank for the price of a SPY 0dte
Crazy to think you can buy SPY at 400 a share in 2028

I don't think SPY is gonna say "PSYCH" this time.
The entire market is now a meme stock. Completely trades based on FOMO and nonsense headlines instead of the most important thing by far for companies: Free Cash Flow. FCF is DOWN YoY for SPY lmao. EV to FCF is like 40:1 or something absurd. Complete detachment from reality and ignoring fundmantels: Meme stock.
SPY 2% tomorrow because it makes no sense
Yes, this is the one I meant. If SPY hit 783, 780 call would probably be worth around $3.00 or more, depending on how much time was left until expiration. 780 would already give a huge profit. In the beginning of August I actually made a profit like this, remember the two days it rose about 20 dollars?

SPY is untradable. Only Meta now
Like I said market makers aint giving up a dime SPY
If the Iran blockade actually lifts then SPY 580c are basically free money but if it's fake news we get dumped on so hard. My DD is literally just reading headlines on twitter while vaping. Should I ape into the weekly expiries or wait for confirmation? The volume on the puts looks suspicious though.......
lmao, 1,000,000 contracts for SPY 775 expiring today. This country is so screwed
If you're talking about buying like a 1DTE 780c on SPY or the index, it looks like SPY would have to go up like 9 points in a day to give you a $3000 profit on those 10 contracts, according to a risk profile graph I'm looking at. For whatever that's worth. According to one AI, over the last couple years, we've seen a 10 point one-day jump like that about every 25 trading days. But sometimes it takes several months.
SPY slowly floating like a turd within 0.2% range today
Market makers dont want give up a single dime on SPY today
yeah after what I said this morning, my prediction was spot on for today on SPY. All my confirmations hit, im going 2DTE puts on SPY. This is the play
Looks like SPY wants to snap higher but I could be wrong and it wouldn't be the first time
Hah. Since you actually said something worth responding to, I will gift you one last reply. I'm underperforming on my 20% cash sure. But my international which makes up almost all of my remaining is crushing SPY. No one knows for sure when either: * US stocks will crater. * Or inflation will destroy your gains anyway. And I'll continue laughing at arrogant fools like you who are 100% all in US. It's not secret forces that US is desperately printing faster and faster, accelerating the path to bankruptcy and becoming increasingly politically unstable. Anyways, that's all. Best of luck should truly be my last response 😘 loser troll.

stop whatever you are doing immediately and just buy SPY OR VT ETFs You are going to think you are a winner everyday you make "good" choices, until one day, 50% drops suddenly. OR just buy SPY / VT and never touch it, enjoy 7-10% return for life.
What delta will you have on those 10 contracts, around 80? 3000/80 = 37.5. So if I'm doing the math right, SPY would have to go up about 37. When was the last time it did that in a day? IDK. Is this even close to what you're talking about?
Just bought the Nov 20 SPY 780 straddle.
SPY please end at 773.50 it’ll be funny
