Because 99% of people are completely degenerate gamblers who dont have a basic understanding of primitive financial concepts (top of my head example is price volatility correlation between thr VIX and SPY). Its the actually opposite of what every grifter is parroting with their paid course, its extremely difficult and requires significant knowledge and intelligence. Every time I see moonshot posts with long 2dte calls with 0.1 delta I am just perplexed as the first time I've seen one.
SPY to 777 means this is officially a casino (validation)
said it in another comment but basically the entire market under trump is a fraud. He won't let that shit correct while he has his thumb on everything. I mean shit just look at the chart, the second he was elected, the pump was on. he will fight any meaningful correction with all sorts of fuckery tooth and nail for as long as he is in power and the street will love it. If you cant beat em join em im going full tilt naked SPY 800c 8/14 market open. boom or bust
yea but SPY didn't make a dip. Spy was at $756 at 1300. He's saying he purchased contracts at 1300 for 0.01 at a strike of $767.. just $11 away... which makes no sense. SPY CLOSED just $1 higher then where it was at at 1300, not even enough of a move to make much after the decay so you can essentially compared and make a correlation with Fridays close and where contracts are at.... and you'd have to be buying at least $30 under strike to get contracts at 0.01.. and contracts only $11-$13 away are 0.1 -0.14 per contract... nowhere near 0.01, this makes no sense
SPY will be higher next year, book it
What??? There's no way in hell that Spy $767 contracts expiring 8/4 purchased on 8/3 at 1300 (when SPY was at $756) cost $0.01. No fucking way. That's a day and a half left before expiration still and only $11 away. The market closed only a dollar higher from that 1300 price point. If trying to find a 0.01 contract on Fridays CLOSE, not even at 1300 with less time decay... you'd be buying a strike $30-40 less then close to pick up for $0.01. Seeing as SPY only moved $1 before the 1300 and close and he would have purchased at a $11 difference between where the market was and contract strike he bought... your looking at 0.1 to 0.15 for comparable contracts
the entire market under trump is a fraud. look at the chart, the second he was elected, the pump was on it. he will fight any meaningful correction with all sorts of fuckery tooth and nail for as long as he is in power. im going full tilt naked SPY 800c 8/14 market open. fuck it. boom or bust

Ok but SPY is at ATH and holding? And QQQ is way above the -20% bear market level
You did an OTM LEAPS. Thats not going to look like the stock. I had success with SPY LEAPS this year, but they’re ITM
What are the calls SPY monday? trump needs a win, bessent think we dont need hormuz but he also controls a infinite money printer?
You clearly didn’t see the part where I had 400+ SPY trades and 200+ QQQ trades.
The 2 days where the SPY only went up is the only time you made money lol. Clearly you're a genius investor and should keep it up!
46$ spread out on SPY puts and calls. And you are making a write up about it? My brother in christ, this is not trading. This is just straight up gambling.
Silly Bears, we're going to SPY 785 on Wednesday after CPI comes in negative. Then 800 before a reactionary pullback a week after.
SPY at ATH and you have people losing retirement money. Lol https://preview.redd.it/9cvyc7kll6ih1.jpeg?width=1220&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1da6b3e0d65ef16ae83eab73603528a9dbdcb880
Was doing some risky options plays around earnings and ran up from $45k initial investment into about $110k… so plus +65k. Had some winners that i sold way to early on… including a SPY call i sold for a $300 loss… was a 3k bet that peaked at $64k a few days after i sold. I have been doing momentum plays lately on memory where i place $100k on stocks and sell after a small gain (\~$500-$1,000) I tell myself everyday to stop day trading and just VOO/VTI and chill
494.62 0DTE far OTM SPX/SPY calls monday, good luck!

I am in uk so can’t trade SPY options so I trade SPX instead. What alternative can I use for QQQ
I think OP should buy it and then auction it here on WSB. All proceeds go to 0DTE SPY calls.
One of the flattest days Microsoft had. You’re not making 100% because it moved $1.50 at noon. That’s not how it works lol that may be true on SPY 0DTE’s but not MSFT. If you’re not a man of your word that’s fine but I’m not retarded. Just take the L.
Had a dream that an Axios story broke out about Russia sending nukes to Iran and the first thing i thought in my dream was how fucked my SPY calls are for Monday
Don’t know about you, but I’m full porting SPY Monday morning
the 94% weight number is the right one to lead with, the ticker count is nearly meaningless in cap weighted funds and people quote it constantly. one thing i would add though. overlap by weight still understates the issue, because what actually matters is how much of your portfolio VARIANCE the two share, and that is higher than 94%. the unique 6% of QQQ is not some independent sleeve, its mostly other large tech that moves with the same factor as the overlapping 94%. so the diversification you get from that 6% is close to zero even though it looks like a real slice on paper. the flip side of your point is more interesting to me. holding both is not pointless, its just not diversification, its a deliberate tech overweight with extra steps. if someone actually wants that tilt they should size it on purpose rather than discovering it. the honest way to state a QQQ plus VOO position is "i am running roughly X% more tech than the market" and most people holding both cannot tell you what X is. if you want to make the post even harder to argue with, run the return correlation of QQQ against a synthetic SPY-plus-tech-tilt portfolio. it will be up near 0.99 and that number lands with people in a way that a holdings table does not.
If it was ITM the gains wouldn't have been anything to speak of lol On another note, so you can get 0DTE SPY options for less than $20? Maybe that is how I should practice! I rarely implement options unless I am browsing and see something that seems possible while being OTM slightly. I have lost a bit, but more-so in the beginning. Lately my options have just been another tool that I occasionally use. But I only use them sometimes because I need to use some risk to break out of poverty! I fantasize about having just a few big wins, give myself a paycheck and the tax man, and then intelligently investing the rest. One day, one day..
Do you even know what theyre buying or are you assuming theyre full porting in the SPY? There are a lot of stocks that are far from their ATH right now you know
13.66% compared to 7% SPY - sounds like we're almost twice as good. So how come I'm not making money following you guys?
My body is ready for SPY $800
SPY chart showing Flag pattern.
I like how people conveniently forget the 2022 ber market that lasted a year, dropped SPY -25%, and didn’t recover for another year lmfao
SPY Spread Lottos AnyOne?
People keep talking about the market should crash. Where the fuck have you been in the last 2 months lol. SPY may be up but QQQ and SMH is still down. KOSPI will probably go to Zero soon. The market want en excuse to pump and TACO give it to us a few days ago... We should be able to slowly pump from here on out.
He bought 0DTE puts with dreams of a score, Then SPY ripped higher and emptied his store. He stared at the chart as his portfolio died— “I should’ve just bought calls,” he quietly cried.
666 SPY in 2009 was so much fun
He says broad low cost index. He never specifies an ETF. Investors use SPY, VOO, SPYM etc etc interchangeably to refer to the S & P 500.
They are insufferable. Imagine thinking you have a chance of being as good as professional value investors. The goat of Value Investing (Buffett) tells retails to just buy SPY and bonds.
42,000% Luck. Buy’s 100s of 0.01$ contracts in SPY. SPY climbs >1.5% in the day, instantly climbs to $4.00. Easy

Ugh. LEAPS. It is a very good instrument but also extremely nuanced. To a newbie you might think "stock proxy" but you need to be very careful. Firstly, you need to consider the IV. IV is about 70% of everything when buying something so far out. When volatility drops, you automatically get fked for nothing (think IV crush during earnings). IV and DTE decides the \*\*price\*\* of the option at specific deltas. Delta works with pricing to decide the \*\*leverage\*\*. You need to put these two together to figure out if you bought a good contract or not. Most people buy shitty contracts. How do you know if your contract sucks then? What's a good leverage? The easy (but tedious) way is assume the underlying price does not move until expiry. Find a contract with 2x leverage. Divide your option premium by the DTE and that is your premium decay per day. Then, take any 2x LETF of the underlying stock and compare the volatility decay (difference in expected returns of the 2x LETF, for example if the underlying went up 10% in a time period, you expect the LETF to go up 20% - but it rarely does. That difference is the volatility decay). Use a far out time period (2 years) for a better comparison. For stock, usually LETFs outperform LEAPS because the higher volatility prices LEAPS accordingly. For stable ETFs like SPY, usually LEAPS outperform LETFs. But since you didn' bother to read this much text, a LEAPS leverage of 2.5+++ is \*generally\* a good pricing for stock, but a leverage of 4.5+++ is \*generally\* a good pricing for ETF.
SPY in 2000: 150 SPY in 2013: 150 Can confirm: it sucked
How about I SPY on you while you pullback my foreskin.
I buy calls on any SPY pullback. AI worries are gone. Interest rate worries are gone. Oil will figure itself out. Legit no bear case I can see.

It does feel like a euphoric market. Everyone is pumping everything they have into it and any bearish sentiment gets shot down. It could still go on like this for years more, but it’s going to be one of those times people look back on it and analyse how people were taking out loans and leveraging to the hilt to buy SPY calls.

What do you guys think about my SPY $775c expiring on Monday
!banbet SPY +11% 4w Get out the way pussies, I'm manifesting greatness.
Should held onto to my gains from the SPY run earlier in the week - gave it all back and then some - trading sleep deprived, couldn’t process the options right
SPY will probs break over 780 this week Or not idk
No matter what stock market go up. Good or bad news. Specially bad news. SPY is designed to go up.
Daily SPY chart is just a little tussle in the middle of a steady march
beauty of this economy is even if QQQ/SPY goes to 1$ u can just take out a massive loan, back the truck up and fill that bitch with 3x leverage shares, and in no time youll be piss rich while retard bear john malds about his bitch wife and going back to work on monday
SPY will remain between $779-$767 for this month
Tempted to buy SPY 800Cs 2 weeks out
I would really love to see just one more 2% leg up on SPY by Tuesday, I’m so sick of this sideways action
SPY chart clearly showing Distribution phase .. Markdowns phase is next and smart money ( Big players) will take their profits and sell .
30% for 3-years? Then it's way below SPY performance
I am thinking you actually beat the SPY by a lot. What's your 3-year performance if you don't mind sharing?
Ridiculous SPY run up . Monday is not going to be the same.
Buddy you just have a shit ton of money, you're barely even beating SPY
You and everyone else on Reddit. No one believes the rally. Before we broke out everyone was certain a “crash” was coming. There are far too many top callers. I wouldn’t even think of getting bearish until SPY cracks $800. All of you are far too early.
Is SPY $800 possible next week after deal and cpi?
Wild that soon Youll pay 1K for a share of SPY
Hot take, I think a fake meat event once in a while is a lot more fun than daily spcx/semis/gold/SPY slop
SPY or QQQ only my broski
SPY consolidated a couple days, I stil think it goes to 795 before it done
Your VGK hasn’t outperformed SPY in the past year and is waaaay behind in the last 5 years. Enjoy your 50k wage and 50% tax. Makes sense for Eurocucks like you, however. You can have the state provide the things you can’t afford (except air conditioning).
SPY +3% next week after CPI and deal?
I don't get the Wealthsimple snobbery. I tried IBKR and MooMoo and they both suck and almost turned me off trading (MooMoo is especially horrendous - the very second you fill up a profile, their rep is calling you \*on the phone\* to pressure you into it). WealthSimple is user-friendly, and they now offer all levels of options even uncovered so pretty much all the features you need. Plus free US accounts if you have $ 100k (or a cheap monthly fee if you don't). $0 commissions plus they have "active traders" perks now. I place my trades on Wealthsimple (browser experience is better but the phone app is fine too!) and I use Trading View to chart, about 10 - 20 trades per day and never had any issue. Unless you're taking huge trades like $10k at a time, or you mostly want to scalp within seconds or something, Wealthsimple works perfectly fine for options, even for SPY 0dte (until 4:15 ET!) The only negative is, SXP is not available.
Everyone is bearish. It means we go much higher next week. Probably SPY $780-790
Nope. I am trading index options, mainly SPX and SPY.
We moonin for the next 60 days! SPY 800 is not a dream US official to ABC News: The agreement regarding the establishment of new navigation routes in the Strait of Hormuz will be temporary The temporary agreement regarding navigation in the Strait of Hormuz will extend up to 60 days
Eurocuck? My VGK is outperforming SPY. They live better, have lower debt. Are much happier and treat their citizens better. What kind of Ameripoor cope is this.
About as exciting as SPY today
CPI gonna make SPY chart look like Angel Falls
I've been holding Mastercard for ages. Visa and Mastercard are pretty much always on sync with each other, I just went with Mastercard back then because the stock was slightly more down than Visa at that time. It's a slightly boring stock, but at least it outperforms SPY over 10 year averages. 15% of my port is in it and it always feels good to see it going green on a day where the rest of the market is red. 90% of the world's transactions runs through them and because transactions even keep going during crises, market crashes and every other disaster, it's a great defensive stock to hold imo.
My best month was 14k doing SPY 1DTE and 0DTE by scalping. Usually $1-2K entries and quickly getting out after $250-400. Definitely put it into perspective on how a big enough bank roll can at least make it a living. You cant push trades though. Hit the goal or stop loss for the day and quit. I lose most of the time by keep going

War is coming this weekend. SPY to $0 on Monday.
