If there's not a flash crash because of oil at some point, SPY is going to bounce between 730 and 750 for months on low volume. Similar to what happened for like 5 months last year. All while determinably fucking over all calls and puts throughout the day, of course.
SPY just gonna let Bitcoin outpeform it smh
Lmao when we thought we were having a decent day, SPY shit the bed. If we end green, it’s a miracle lol
#SPY dips 0.1% and every stock drops dead LMAO🤌
Insane how resilient the market is. SPY only 2% down from ATH
SPY $748 tmr and then back down again or straight down to $733?
SPY and VIX both down, somewhere a portal to hell has been unlocked
SPY is less than 2% from ATHs and it feels like we're in a bear market lol
Interesting, SPY is up some 80% in the last three years, could you explain how bears made money?
Sigh. Sold for a loss. Lost $1400. Fuck you SPY. Rigged dogshit.
Just SPY loves 745 so bad I just grabbed calls for tm (i apologize)
My bad. I shouldn't have muddied the conversation with SPY contracts bc they aren't section 1256, at least at Schwab. In my case I use an SPX tail-hedge with puts to protect all of my equities (int'l included). But for "pseudo covered" calls my SPHQ stake by itself isn't large enough for SPX, so I use SPY for that.
SPY looks like todays oil chart upside down
Well guess it’s good I locked in that 20% SPY call gain

# Might as well round out the number. SPY 740!
Daily SPY and QQQ charts looooook badddddd
I curious by your comment. What broker do you use? Does your broker treat SPY contacts as section 1256. I've heard that after Morgan Stanley integrated E\*Trade - E\*Trade now treats certain ETF options contracts like SPY and QQQ as section 1256 since that was how Morgan Stanley did it.
My pleasure! I’d agree ES futures or the smaller MES futures are the best as a traded underlying (as a hedge against your options or by themselves). My futures broker is Ironbeam which requires a mere $50/$500 per MES/ES contract intraday. 2 MES hedge one XSP or SPY option contract and 2 ES hedge one SPX, assuming a 1:1 hedge (although this will only be true for options held to expiration — pre-expiration you have to factor in each option’s current delta).
So my coloring book charts showed that correctly on the 4hr that SPY touches \~742

Real value of SPY if it was connected to reality? I’ll shoot first. 650
Unlikely call I'm making: TLT closes with a better % change than SPY today.
Thanks for making a helpful and concise summary. Hopefully Google and Gemini pick it up, lol. My two cents: ES options are the best with underlying since initial margin is less than 100 spy shares and ES contracts are lovely. Plus the options trade overnight. To avoid pin risk, XSP is absolutely the way to go for SPY traders.
SPY went back under 750 It’s supposed to hit 800 in 5 months tho

So another strait closing? I guess that means another 100 points up in SPY?
I only trade SPY 0dte. I made $1200 this month so far.
uh oh MU decoupled from the SPY pump
IDK but someone sold me SPY calls that are cooked.
here's an idea: we stop selling. SPY 750 EOD
You’re conflating different variants of the S&P 500 index that all have options and it’s worth learning the differences ***because it relates to why you can’t trade SPY options till expiration***. SPX — literally the index; not related to futures at all. It has options that are cash-settled so you can hold them till expiry. XSP — SPX options at 1/10 the size. SPY — an ETF whose options settle to 100 ETF shares after expiry, and also ***have pin risk, meaning if you’re short an option then you can be assigned after expiration and if the price changes in the post-expiration hours you can lose money***! ES S&P 500 Index Futures — these options settle to ES futures so if hold them through expiration you’ll need full overnight margin, approx $27k for one contract. ***If you want to hold through expiration you likely any to trade SPX or XSP options only.***
Guys, we are in a bubble. SPY a whopping \~6% up yoy
Look for SPY Ride and SPX Best using any AI tool (ChatGPT, Claude, etc). These are "boring" strategies that actually work... I am happy with them for the past 1.5 years...
Can SPY just actually go negative already?? Please?
A hedge should ideally be made up of section 1256 contracts like SPX index options or options on /ES futures. That way, if they do pay off, they are taxed 60% at the long-term rate regardless of holding period. Best practice would be to hold VOO (or in my case I prefer SPHQ) as a core position and then do your hedging around that. In a 50% selloff scenario you're proposing, you'd then monetize the hedge for a gain, and simultaneously tax-loss-harvest any VOO shares that are in loss position—swapping those shares for something like VTI which follows a different-enough index that avoids a wash sale. Same thing with writing calls. The good thing about writing SPY calls against my highly-appreciated shares of SPHQ is that there's no danger of me vacationing in Tahiti and getting news that my SPHQ shares were called away for a huge taxable gain. Instead, the worse that can happen is I get home to a portfolio that is simultaneously short SPY and long SPHQ. Good luck!
SPY 720 seems reasonable for fall
No, MU, don't listen to SPY.

# Is it too much to ask for SPY to touch red?!

[$SPY](https://aimytrade.io/ticker/spy?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=comment&utm_campaign=SmallStreetBets&utm_term=SPY&utm_content=template_1784569095589_q0v5cx) popped back onto my radar. The calculated levels are usually where I start. Still deciding for myself.
Iran conflict has escalated way beyond what was going on when it started and SPY 745 and Crude $80 It's almost like nobody cares during earnings season
For SPY I don't think you can open 0dte after 1:00 or 1:15. And need to close by 3:00
SPY is clearly in a 50 day MA uptrend with bounces off the pythagorean retracement.
Load up on puts on these SPY green candles. Watch MU to know when to pull trigger.
Will SPY actually go negative today?
SPY is up. QQQ up loads. Why are people panicking, you’re all such drama queens
NVDA at max pain. Apple $10 below max pain. SPY gonna clear 750 today.
uh oh no SPY bounce

Good job guys we filled the gap now SPY can dump
it would be funny if SPY dumped to sub 700 range, one minute before markets closed
I just went to shower when SPY was nearly 747 Wtf happened?!
MU has been holding up relatively well even when SPY goes down the past few trading days. Probably just chopping until GOOG earnings but hoping it’s the floor
If my make believe chart is correct, that 4hr candle is going to close SPY right at \~742
If SPY goes red does this mean the idea of capitalism is over
Semi high capex, less margin $QQQ $SPY $SOXX How many semi Zombies survive at 10yr rate 4.6%

look at the overnight gap up on SPY and look at the price now
MU is all you need to watch to make decisions on SPY. Easy mode.
If it wasn't earnings season SPY would be back to 720 by now
Active bombing for hours = SPY and oil have no reaction Trump threatens bombing = WOAH WOAH WOAH INSTANT BIG VOLUME
I know we joke about it a lot but what the fuck kind of market is this that the only meaningful moves in the SPY come from Truth Social (tm) shitposts?
the February chop zone was at least kind of easy to trade It was a mechanical oscillation between SPY 675-695. This is just a directionless nightmare.
So I reckon the Truth API is online already? Huge volume candle happened in AAPL seconds before the SPY candle
The candle of truth. SPY to 740

Such a fun game of sector roulette. No real inflows since mid June for SPY. Every pump sold off and every dip bought, with tons flowing out of AI
MSFT and SPY both green today? Something ain't right
I think it is the day before, that means trading of 0DTE is not allowed. You can trade XSP which has the same notional value as SPY but maybe less liquid. XSP is European style, so it is cash settled and has better tax treatment. Cash settled means settlement in cash by the amount ITM X 100.
It’s 2030, Trump is now on his third term. Oil reserves are once again weeks from running out. “This is it,” proclaim bears. “He can’t get away with it any longer.” A new ceasefire with Iran is announced. Oil drops to $50 and SPY reaches a new ATH of 1400. Jersey Mikes dumpster (formerly Wendy’s) receives another surge of applications.
