Markets will rally on a hike tomorrow as it will be seen as the US actually giving a shit about the dollar instead of letting it get fucked to inflate the debt away. !banbet SPY +2% 2d
Can you believe that the SPY has only closed up or down 1% once in the last 28 sessions.
Imagine if Warsh announces no rate hike. SPY 800 EOW is no joke.
Terrible idea, SPY 0DTE instead
For once glad I forgot to close my barely in the money SPY puts and I have negative -400 SPY shares to buy cheap today.
SPY goes up :money:
I don't understand people who have wealth like this who risk it like it's nothing. You won't get Daddy's approval Yoloing your inheritance in SPY calls.

What are we feeling SPY will open at
>Hell, detached from the bond market now. Because who cares if you can get 5% risk free when $SPY is returning 15% CAGR over the last 10 years. Or when $GOOG is basically an entire diversified tech index fund with a market cap larger than most national economies, 11 figure quarterly revenue, and returns something like 22% annually since IPO. Also how risk free are the 10 years anymore 40T in debt and Mango in charge?
Oil rising. Mango's bullshit cant even pump SPY 1%, no matter how hard he lies. # LIMP
She's a 10. As in $10.00 ATM call option and her name is SPY 0dtes

SPY looks like shit It might be joever
Damn the Tanzanian index is up 70% YTD. SPY in the mud
True. need to be selective. SPY is pretty much a coin toss lately
SPY we boutta see what’s good in the morning
Here we are where? SPY is 2% from ath. Bessent will continue ycc.
Imagine your asshole stinks SPY 780
Lol neither of those are low risk. And there’s a 0.0% chance you’re outperforming SPY (which also isn’t low risk) on any risk-adjusted metric. Comparing verts, strangles and covered to SPY is nonsensical as well.
We need a -2% SPY day this week to get this place really bumpin
SPY is 2.4% from ATH's :exit:
SPY doubled within past 5 years
I think the useful lesson is that recession calls and stock returns aren't the same forecast, especially over 12 months. I watch SPY but don't trade, and the 100% figure mostly taught me to distrust anyone presenting a messy macro outcome as certain.
Hopefully this takes oil to over $300 and tanks the stock market. I wanna see SPY at 300.
I think the 5% headline is less interesting than whether it stays there after the Fed decision. Dumb question: if SPY sells off while the 10-year holds near 5%, is that mostly a discount-rate reaction, or does it also signal the market expects rates to stay high longer?
Not yet :pray: You'd think having like 30 holdings across the energy, financial, and tech/semi sectors would prevent fat down days when SPY is flat but nope lmao :copium:
Worst of September is yet to come. Probably last 10 days of the month? Sept 27 will be peak fear imo. SPY 730-725 by then I believe.
SPY overdue for a -20% day
Looks like it. SPY futes up!
Yup. And nothing will happen to markets. At most SPY and QQQ will drop by 0.5%. Nothing phases markets anymore, and its insane. Not even a 10 mile asteroid strike on a 1st world country would send the market lower. I really don't know how to make sense of it.
when it drops back down to 4.92% SPY will +5.00% because why not.
Stocky market so stocky these days. STC my SPY monthly puts. Opened ORCL atm calls 6mo(ish) out. Added more $BAH shares jic midterms turn their way.
put it in SPY and get ONLY 11k in dividends and a stock appreciation of 12%/year? nah
The last time the 10yr yield got this high, SPY went on to have a blistering rally. 45% in 16 months
Probably not in any lasting way. SPY is insanely liquid, so $1B is big but not move the whole market big. A true $1B market order could cause some short-term slippage and push the price around for a few seconds, but arbitrage and liquidity would likely absorb it pretty fast
Seeing tons of big money straddles in options sweeps. 50-100 million in total premium between the two legs. Saw a ton of this today on SPY NVDA and other names. Big money has no clue either where this market is going but they know it’s going to move big one way.
What would happen if a billionaire placed a market order of 1 billion dollars of SPY? Would that be enough to move the market in a meaningful way? Asking for a friend.
Bro could have just bought SPY leaps and print money

SPY goes up or down a point of your choosing, but every time it does that’s one back shot from big Don. How many you taking
I don't have SPY or VOO. VIG is as close as I get. If anything, I hedge more towards value/dividend growth than high risk. But if we're going to classify the S&P 500 as high risk because it's heavily weighted towards tech, then everything else is even higher risk by default.
If you consider tech as high risk, 20% of the SPY is faang.
yo why on trading view, ES shot up 1% just now but SPY post market is still sideways
SPY is certainly the wrong answer, if not for the worse tax treatment, then for the pin risk. There is no reason not to use SPX / XSP
Turns out I have been connected to the company wifi on my phone and they have been logging my reddit comments I now have to explain to HR tomorrow what I meant by “SPY -2% today and I’ll take a shit on my boss’s desk and leave”
After Wednesday we are heading straight for SPY 800. Yields and oil up and midterms around the corner. Only pump talk from here
I mean at that size, yes. $400k at $1.16 is \~3,450 contracts. Even SPY liquidity can get chewed through if you demand an immediate fill, especially at the open. One cent of slippage is like \~$3,450 each way
Does this include all those 20 year-olds on YouTube yelling at my 55 year old ass about the infinite retirement money glitch called covered calls and cash - secured puts while explaining they're basically free money if you do them on SPY cuz it always goes back up? Really?
In an honest market, puts would have printed big. The market is corrupt but even Mengo and his coven of cuckolds cant take SPY to 800, no matter how hard they try. All attempts end up flaccid, and deflated. Limp, just like small hands.
SPY 2% from ATH Imagine that
SPY is probably going to make a new high during the VIX expiration This will paint a daily RSI divergence for a longer downtrend, but super short term, we go uppies Rip
The SPY is just a measure of how company owners are doing via the proxy of the company earnings in aggregate. Wall street and Main steet are not the same street.
I’m not an accountant but for many of the reasons stated in this thread that’s why I’ve heard people generally trade options for gains on spx and es but buy hedges on SPY. Most hedges expire worthless and the loss should count against your gains. Supposably, you pay less taxes when you make money with spx options but the amount you can write off when you declare your spy hedges as a short term capital loss is more so you get better tax loss harvest from the hedges this way???
You can trade SPY options 15 minutes after close, SPX options can be traded for an hour after close.
If you were holding SPX options you could've sold until 15 minutes after close. Also better for taxes. Honestly don't know why to trade SPY over SPX options unless you are working with really small amounts.
Yeah, lost around $160 on that trade. All in, I scraped $57 from the market today after closing my losing SPY puts
SPY 757 was the generational floor We never go below 760 again
Again, not for OTM, unless you're factoring taxes, there's no contest, SPY even has skew (put) advantage where it's the go-to hedge for option longs.
SNDK held above as did SPY. Can't assume anything
Sucks that SPY will retest 758 after hours.
Portfolio absolutely fucking destroyed ; SPY -0.48%. wtf????
Buying ATM puts for tomorrow a good idea for SPY or should I wait till open to see if market goes somewhere else
I wouldn’t switch from SPY to SPXW because you got “too big.” SPY usually has better liquidity. SPXW just lets you express similar exposure with \~1/10 the contracts. Slippage depends heavily on strike, delta, time of day, and how aggressively you cross the spread
I ended up going with calls for both SPY/QQQ overnight, knowing how the market may find some dumb fucking way to artificially pump day before fomc decision
SPY puts for Wednesday and Calls for Thursday locked in.
Closing bell hit and SPY took off the girdle lmao
SPY 760ps in at .04, out at .06 in 5 mins It's not much, but it's honest work
SPX or XSP my guy (if you’re trading SPY)
For 0DTE, yeah, cash settlement is beneficial for ITM debits, OTM is irrelevant. If you trade OTM credits, different matter. But more so, mixing dates for horizontals or looking for wider spreads, hell no, look at XSP longer dates at wider spreads, no comparison to SPY. .
$SPY lotto calls anybody. Full spread. Monthly, weekly... BACCARAT
Mines deployed in the straight of ~SPY760. proceed with caution
He posted half a dozen today and SOXL is still down -15% on the day, oil is still over $100, and SPY failed to touch green once. Nobody is buying it anymore

SPY 800 .. we getting a rate cut
Spcx, QQQ, SPY all recover. so Lunr decides to drop 3% from where it was at, and is only 1% above today's low. It's one of the cuckiest stocks ever.
I can't wait for some earth shattering news to hit overnight and SPY to be down 0.2%
#In my many years of trading I've only seen twice where SPY actually moved after 1 pm LMAO🤌
Plot twist: USO and SPY tumble.
#What's more boring? Watching paint dry, watching grass grow or watching SPY in the afternoon? LMAO🤌
762 is the one constant that SPY respects. Anything below that and it will violently pamp.
SPY starting too look Real and Straight
Haven’t a clue what tomorrow will be like. Am just gonna assume SPY flatlines till 2pm on Wednesday.
Don 🌮 you did all that manipulation this morning and can’t even get SPY green? Lmao. Kenny G and Jane Street are laughing at your pathetic attempt, they’d have this market up or down 5% if they wanted to
Lmao. Feels like any small SPY dip today that could get momentum going down invites a quick huge buy order. Dont bet against the house. Bessent’s playing or whatever.
#Every day is the same. Every morning SPY dumps, all stocks dump with it. In the afternoon SPY fully recovers but none of the stocks do. Then we are flat for 4 hours. LMAO🤌
SPY basically not down much because the money didn't leave the market. It got spread to other non AI stocks. Market got its blinders on. Calls.
SPY everyone here is tired of your BS, just say what you mean already.
Disgusting. Icarus'd and flew too close to the sun on SPY with 764c 0DTE's after being up 200%. Bag holding like a bitch down 88%
I'm not asking for much here MMs, I don't even need to return to today's lows. If you could just throw me a measly SPY 760 I'd be happy...
Sold calls. Feels like SPY gonna dump back to VWAP
This is so confusing like why isn't SPY green if bols are right?
