I suck at options plays. I started just flipping stocks instead and now I’m up 36% YTD lol. I’m great (so far) at picking a stock and direction but get killed with timing and strike price. It’s also much less work this way. Set it and forget it. I do a 80/20 rule for overall strategy and plays. 80% in SPY/QQQ 20% Risk plays (below) Then if I sell a risk play for a profit, 80/20 the proceeds into the next play. Sometimes I’ll sit on cash waiting for a downward day for a week or 2. $MU $MFST $GME $NVDA $SPCE $RVI Currently all risk play is in $GME, bought in at \~$18.50 about a month or so ago. Sitting pretty about now.
Wait 86% of stocks in SPY are in a bear market? So its just a few big tech names holding up everything?

SPY would turn red for 2-3 days. Thats not good.
780 spy Monday, 63rd peace deal announced tonight. SPY going to hit 790 EOW before we do a few more strikes. Mango is the ultimate economy simulator. He's doing the fed's job of cooling down the economy. This is the whole point of the strikes.
All my feed is flooded w/ flooded streets and people kayaking on them using AI for everything. SPY +3% on Monday.
Sorry I just like to look at things logically. I actually work in finance not bet on 0DTE SPY calls and celebrate loss "porn".
It’s definitely not just you, I’ve noticed this weird clustering around round numbers in options chains for years. Feels like the same psychology that makes people set limit orders at.00 or.50, just translated into strike selection. The crowd gravitates toward the clean numbers without realizing they're paying a slight premium for the privilege. Market makers know where the resting orders are piling up and they adjust the spreads accordingly. I tracked this on SPY weeklies a while back and the skew was surprisingly consistent, those 0 strikes always had fatter bid-ask spreads and juicier implied vol. Nobody talks about it but the pattern is right there if you look. Your comparison to the old floor trader advice is spot on. Same game, different generation of traders making the same predictable moves.
big green rip is literally the textbook IC killer, but at 45 DTE you still have time theta working for you. rolling the untested side closer is the standard move to collect more credit and tighten your breakeven, just don't panic-roll the tested side into a worse position. QQQ ICs aren't inherently bad, you just need wider wings or fewer contracts since it moves more than SPY.
SMH calls and SPY puts maybe?
Will I regret not buying 768p for monday expiry for SPY. I might buy at open if they aren't ITM by then
the divergence between the two lines IS the AI bubble, Nasdaq 100 is top heavy in megacap tech while SPX has financials and energy dragging the average, so whenever QQQ pulls away from SPY that's basically NVGA and friends doing the heavy lifting. if you want the real visual, chart QQQ/SPY ratio and watch it go parabolic post-ChatGPT launch.
Is it ok to want MU to shrek and SPY to Clifford? Because that’s what I want for Monday. Does that mek me a hedgie?
#There has never been a time in history when it's this easy to make money and get rich. Literally just buy SPY calls every time it dips. LMAO🤌⛹️
LVHI has outperformed the SPY and has a higher dividend. Gets risk away from the US.
We’ll fade the indexes all through October into mid-term, QQQ to just below 710, SPY to 725. Then rally into the end of year, QQQ 765, SPY 800
SPYX which is spot on SPY is 774
Despite the fear surrounding the use of options, it would be ideal for you take the time to learn how leverage effects your "risky type of trading" If SPY goes against you .10% do you really want to lose it all?
Dropping $100k in SPY puts Monday. Wish me luck. Will report back. 💯🫡
SPY 800 end of this week. Book it!
Leveraged SPY. I finally caved to bol after that Monday pump
SPY was 776 on hyper liquid earlier, it’s still 774 right now even after the ceasefire rejection
Everyone underwater, SPY +2% on Monday
I am super confident that immediately after this week we'll start dumping non-stop for like a month. Therefore, I am proud to say SPY 1,000 by October confirmed. 🚀🚀🚀 Thank you for your attention to this matter!
They just added SPX options though, so you're getting the same tax treatment as futures (in the U.S.). I personally just use it for my SPY 0DTE algo and earning interest on cash. I'll also sell QQQ 60DTE puts as well.
Every weekend people predict a Monday dump. That's how we get to new ATH SPY 790 coming up....

Hey so if AI is an amazing productivity and efficiency tool, why is every almost company outside of the semiconductor sector and occasionally flavor of the week AI company bleeding out in a slow, painful death? SPY might be green but a disproportionately high amount of companies are hitting their 52 week lows lately, even the ones that theoretically could benefit from AI automation or their increased compute demands.
Bought Monday SPY puts at HOD yesterday, but with how quick the news cycles, we could gap up 0.75% on a "Super-duper Intelligence" tweet tomorrow night.
How did you lose money on same value SPY call and put?
It depends on what you're doing. Are you trading or investing? In both cases, you need to take into account your risk tolerance. If it's low, don't buy stocks in a volatile market like AI or other tech, just buy an ETF like VOO or SPY and leave it. If you want to day trade: don't. Statistically, you won't make money. Otherwise, research the stock. See if you believe in what they're doing. See if they have good numbers. See if they make sense (looking at you, SpaceX).

Essentially a stop-loss is an automated trailing stop order sell order. After SPY goes up let’s say .10 the stop-loss will trigger if it goes back down .05 and sell the contracts, but it keeps moving so it could be .70 and then slide back down to .63 before it sells(this is just an example). I don’t think Robinhood has this.

I’d be up so much if I just blindly bought SPY at regular intervals instead of doing whatever the fuck I’ve been doing
Looks bigly green this weekend. SPY 800 next week. Book it!
I finally did the mature thing and bought GOOG leaps…. Done with 0dte (well, I kept $500 just to play around with SPY), but no more full port 0dte! I’m done!
I feel like doing so many 0dte calls and puts on SPY
got SPY puts for December though
Wait is it Saturday yet? My brain is fried from refreshing SPY charts every ten seconds expecting Trump to tweet something insane about Iran which means Monday is gonna be a bloodbath for my retirement fund so I might as well just buy some Halloween candy now since I'll be eating ramen for the rest of October anyway. Also why does everyone think geopolitical news matters when we're all just gambling on red candles? I need a nap or a new job preferably both but mostly a nap because if I look at another chart I might actually scream into my pillow until the neighbors call the cops. This whole week feels like a fever dream where money evaporates and I have to explain to my landlord why the check bounced due to 'market volatility'. Best regards, your future divorce attorney.
god dammit I bought SPY calls right before close
SPY up 12.6% on the year and your down 86%… that’s skill. If you can’t make money in this market I got bad news for you.
No. Once bond yield is above 10% then we are talking. SPY averages like what 20% in past few 5 years
That’s why I’m shorting the fuck out of SPY. Relatively cheap to buy but large downward momentum!
It’s easy - enable Margin, flip a coin up or down on SPY or QQQ, wait, delete app
Truly one lucky 0dte SPY day away from breakeven.
Buying SPY when Exxon was number one would have been a very rewarding move
No telling him to play 0DTE on SPY or QQQ
Bruh if you would’ve just invested that into QQQ and SPY you would be doing great 😂
I’m holding SPY 758 calls expiring September 30. Either lose all Monday or make money 😂
Humorously enough, that was likely caused, in part, by me. I was dumping some SPY and SPXL that I picked up in the early morning session. I kept changing the limit until the orders filled. When there's not much liquidity, it's possible to manipulate the bid-ask spreads in your favor. Eager buyers and sellers will often compromise, especially if you make it look like there's some strong directional movement. https://preview.redd.it/g0mb94y5wqrh1.png?width=2892&format=png&auto=webp&s=467dad358d1baa4fbe1699a8510b8ffa16b87133

Please go and buy SPY at $777... Please. I'm begging you... [https://finviz.com/stock?t=SPY&ty=c&ta=0&p=m](https://finviz.com/stock?t=SPY&ty=c&ta=0&p=m) You’re all acting all clever here because we’re currently experiencing the biggest bull market in human history, and it’s concentrated in just a few shares...
This week I flipped $11 into $1600 on SPY 0DTE’s and cashed out this morning What can $1600 even get you these days
Indeed, and unfortunately, the friends, colleagues or influencers who make the most noise are those who have made huge profits on a single share and are boasting about it loud and clear everywhere... Unfortunately, this accounts for just 0.1 per cent of investors – the lucky few. Those who put everything into SPY or a global ETF have outperformed 90 per cent of the other investors who tried to beat the markets. My biggest regret is that if I’d put everything into SGOV, I’d be much wealthier today… It really is a shame! NB. The proof of this is that today everyone ; absolutely everyone ; is talking about nothing but Intel, AMD, NVDA or TSLA. Whereas at some point over the last five years, everyone was slating them.
I shorted $400k of SPY at close. Not kidding. If it drops 10% I make the 40k I’ve lost this year back
That's a lot of SPY calls for 30k. What are you doing with your life? I can vacation for free

SPY is a bit of a cheat code. If the top 500 companies in America aren't doing well, it's unlikely many other people are. You might catch a riser here and there, but there are far fewer "dead" companies in the S&P 500 than there are in the Russell.
SPY was the first etf ever to market. And one of the best managed ones as well.
Has SP500 always been this *convenient?* I just searched a bunch of sector ETFs and a ton are down 5-8% one month. Somehow a few heavyweight tech names surged to keep SPY flat one month. Constant sector rotation this year... when tech got hammered in the summer the healthcare and quality dividend names mooned (SCHD). I get this is how diversification works but it feels like a conspiracy to keep SPY from EVER dropping more than 1-2% Is it just me?
SPY 0dte calls printed today. My expiry was yesterday
The bottom line isn’t really about choosing which stocks to buy. Wall $treet does whatever it likes with fundamentals and figures. It’s all just pure manipulation: short squeezes, bullish pressure to force short sellers to cover their positions, or bearish pressure to wipe out long positions ; and options. Ultimately, you either had to simply go all-in on SPY or a global ETF… or, quite simply, not sell ; do nothing. Do you buy 10 stocks? You sell all 10 stocks five years later in a single block.
#Next week is the week SPY passes $800 for the first time ever LMAO🤌
imagine bessent gets in over daddy JPOW and then runs up the bond market like it’s SPY imagine being the president that wants this change just for this to happen🤣🤡
So now SPY is pegged to bonds Which is inversely pegged to oil Which is inversely pegged to Trump shitposts **Shitpost based pegging economy**
SPY up .58% is pretty much a red day in this economy
No, I don’t buy high… Or rather, just like with some large-cap stocks… I did buy too high, but only after a 30 per cent correction. Unfortunately, this market is such a bubble that some shares, such as STLA, rose by 500 per cent and then fell to a tenth or 5x of their value. And many stock in the top 1,000 have done the same. NKE MDLZ GIS CHTR STLA etc. etc. But, inevitably, everyone is talking about nothing but the global top 10, which is driving the SPY and QQQ to new all-time highs every week.
AAPL rockets, SPY rockets, your mom rockets...everything but ny shitty calls
Oof that SPY squeeze The spirit of the bear is broken
WHAT THE FUCK IS PUMPING THIS GAY ASS MARKET! YEILDS ARE HIGH, OIL IS HIGH. RATES ARE HIGH!!! WHY ARE WE NEAR ATH’s ON SPY AND QQQ?????????????
#SPY = ripping, every stock = dipping LMAO🤌⛹️
#SPY is the only stock pumping LMAO🤌⛹️
So SPY isnt affected when rates go up, but pumps when they go down. Lol fuck this is the oil effect all over again
I sincerely hope this SPY drops to 760 Monday, oils goes above $100, and yields go up past 5.5%
