Have you ever seen a weekly and daily chart of SPY so well coiled and oiled to make new highs?
The 230pm-415pm $SPX/$SPY scalp strategy I posted 2 days ago has now worked 2 days in a row since posting it here. Going to keep this going.

SPY $750 at Open would be so beautiful
Yeah I’m not completely against the use of them, but leverage needs to be used responsibly. These posts about people putting their entire accounts in short-dated options and losing it all of making it big, it’s just ridiculous. This should not be taught to next gen traders. They understand nothing about IV, greeks, etc. I honestly think the AI bubble everyone keeps fearing over will actually be a leverage/options bubble. People won’t see it coming, and that’s exactly the point of a bubble. KOSPI is in a bear market rn because of leverage. I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the reason we get a bear market in SPY.
Is this buhbye SPY?
It’s wild that people here are so retarded they think blue chip investing is a stupid strategy lmao. MSFT is only up 40% the last 5 years, but 800% the last 10 (23% annual return), Amazon is nearly identical but a little under 7x at 10 years (21% annual return). Google 180% 5-years (12% return), 10x last 10 (26%). For comparison SPY is up 347% (13% annually) over the last 10, although it’s outperformed the first two the last 5 years. An equal weight in these three companies would have returned about 825% over 10 years, that’s 2.8x the S&P. But I forgot nobody here wants to retire in 30 years. They want to retire today or go broke and sling tendies until they’re 80.
Why are all you mofos having a meltdown when SPY is flat?
SPY was red for 1 hour lol
SPY looks like a loaded spring ngl.
Can SPY just get the fuck out of this range? I don't care if it's a +2% or a -2% day just get us out of this choppy bullshit
SPY not even 1% from at ATH
It’s a Peter Lynch thing. If you don’t know Peter Lynch, he’s known as one of the better investors to live. He ran a fund that that beat the SPY for like 13 straight years. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/beating-street-peter-lynch-cyclical-175415742.html

I mostly day trade QQQ, sometimes SPY, but I like to trade options at least a week out for the same reason. Racing theta on a day when they just want to consolidate forever is maddening.
*immediately coverts that check into SPY OTM puts*
Have you looked at the history of SPY?
Let's see if we can dump a little harder today while SPY continue it's journey to ATH
SPY All time highs tomorrow Congratulations to all bulls
So SPY at ATH but QQQ is dying?
I’ve been taught to have money saved first then buy shares and the option contracts to be your extra extra money. Only trade quality companies. But then again, heavy suggestions to just invest in SPY/VOO.
#I'm sick and tired of this bear market we are in right now where SPY is the only green stock LMAO🤌
Taskmaster: Crash a sector without bringing SPY down. Lowest wins, your time starts now.
Fuck stocks for options, just trade SPY or QQQ; build a track record or a relationship of a stock w shares then maybe dabble

Way morerer if he'd bought OTM SPY leaps
I am actually proud of how much smarter WSB is than most of the stock subs. They want to sell off the semis, but they also want to tell you we can push SPY 800+ without them. Based on what? Negative FCF Amazon? More 25+ forward P/R soda stocks? Yeah, nobody should fall for that shit. Show us AI actually making fucking money without giving us manipulated run rates.
It’s was $30 lol. They threaten you with liquidation but I don’t hold stocks in my casino account so there was nothing to liquidate. But now I can’t gamble tomorrow since the deposit to cover the margin has gotta clear so enjoy your SPY +5% day since I’m forced on the sidelines
I decided on positions to hold overnight in the last 2 minutes before market close and then about a minute after market close thought about why my positions are regarded and immediately regretted it. Anyways it will still probably work out. MRVL calls and SPY puts, the put was supposed to be a hedge or something, idk.
7% per year? SPY averages more than double that over the last 10 years.
I wonder how many people accidently got super rich with SPY puts during the Flash Crash.
After seeing the loss porn in here and knowing I had some rage trade moments, I am so glad I disabled options while ahead and started MMA to fill in a void. Serious, best decision of my life. Also putting $50 a day into the SPY on top of a maxed out IRA with some individual stock pickings as well
# Thanks Bill KOSPI & NIKKEI Minaj, now lets get oil to $300, followed by supply destruction, followed by demand destruction, you know the drill. SPY to 142.69, QQQ to 69.42
Tsmc HISTORICAL earnings beat , largest single day gain ever . SPY pumps 2%
The fact you still have 990 in there is the addiction keeping you in the game. Cash out. Fully. Not a fake SPY play you roll into more options. Shut down robinhood. You’re a regarded addict. Do yourself proud and post $900 in the Chase Checking.
Just wait until SPY goes south too and it gets real ugly
The most bearish ATH ever. SPY seems unfazed while tech gets hit. The monthly charts remain fairly flat though.

QQQ looking diamond toppy but SPY looks ready for all time highs.
Fuck 0DTE SPY, literally every trade I make with those I lose money. I was doing Tesla 0DTE but I'm starting to switch to 30DTE so I don't get screwed by theta.
Just need a circuit breaker on SPY
SPY flat for so long yet memory, AI, and momentum keeps getting destroyed. Guh. The shittiest feeling rally.
"I've started over a lot, Lane. This is the worst part." "Get out of here and move forward. This never happened. It will shock you how much it never happened." Two great Don Draper quotes for crap times like this. Good luck to you. Never ever do options again and stick to SPY, VOO, QQQ

I remember when some guy on here thought that rocket stokes were inverse SPY because rocket fuel was following oil prices…. Fucking idiot bro.
kospi could crash and SPY would be fine as long as bag 7 hold up
Imagine buying QQQ calls instead of SPY calls
Why you all getting liquidated why SPY is at ATH?
!banbet SPY 10 5m. I just cant take this anymore
Yup you got me. Let me go live with my wife and kids in my SPY. Dude honestly I feel my IQ points dropping just even communicating with you. Yes yes we all know equities outperform real estate. Maybe you should be like a detective or something because you’re just so fucking smart. Good luck to you.
are you literally retarded if you put the money you put in your house on SPY it would've doubled in 9 years
i can't believe i just read some regard on here patting himself in the back for lagging SPY buy and hold
My week hinges on JNJ turning things around quickly and SPY going green tomorrow. Ugh.
Lol. Breadth is expanding not narrowing. As is evidenced by SPY having a better record than QQQ and then semis ETFs in recent times
Max pain is meaningless in a trending market. Grind higher on SPY because Mag7. Everything else is already correcting
My tips to avoid my particular mistakes: For the $15k one: Don't place orders after hours. For this mistake, I accidentally set a buy order when I meant to set a sell order. If this happened during market hours, it would have been just a small mistake easy to undo. The problem is that I did it after hours (with after hours trading turned on), so the order filled for a price way above what it was trading for during market hours, and there was no one I could resell it to at that price. For the short selling one: First is to know whether you have trading permission to short sell lol. It was never a permission I wanted to have, and I had forgotten that it was a package deal with another permission I did want to have. Second is to double check your open orders before placing a new one. What happened here is I had a limit order placed to sell SPY above market rate that I had forgotten I had previously set, then I decided to sell my shares at market price. The price subsequently went up, and the limit order I had forgotten about filled. You could also just avoid limit orders, but that comes at its own cost.

Only play SPY , guaranteed money if you can play it right.
I've made trading mistakes too, they suck. My biggest one resulted in an immediate $15k-ish loss (that I decided not to realize, and in hindsight, that made everything much worse). I also accidentally shorted SPY once. That was a touch scary lol. Lost only $2k on that one.
Axios too quiet that's why we are not at SPY 850 yet
Marginally. Covered calls protect a little bit. They cap upside more than they protect downside. 9 times out of 10, it is better to buy SPY and sell some when you need cash vs a covered call SPY ETF. Do you sell calls normally?
Whatchya gooners think SPY will do tomorrow

SPY recovered but all stocks are red.... except Bag7 and koreans dont give a FUCK about Bag7
yea so I think I’m gonna hold these $755 SPY PUTs overnight
*(SPY closes +0.4%)* WSB : "So this is the great tech massacre." This is what a real bull market looks like 🤑
When we had to hike rates to tamp down inflation? The market was guaranteed to respond that way. Did you enjoy 1-3% SPY days every single day in 2023 and 2024? Did you enjoy when inflation was brought from 9% to sub 3% faster than any other OIDC/G7 country?
SPY closed up half a percent
