SPY

Time to leave SPY and friends. Everything is doing better than US markets. The mango effect

No_Lobster_1102

Ate Korean today, puts on my stomach. I mean buy SPY puts tomorrow guys.

neutralpoliticsbot

just need SPY to drop 5% tomorrow to break even

“Just in case I don’t lose everyone on the SLV puts I’ll add some SPY and QQQ puts just to make sure”

daners101

I actually think these will print. The rally in SLV is looking exhausted. Consolidation is coming. The SPY puts I wouldn’t count on. But the squeeze in SLV is way overdone. Massive profit taking is inevitable.

Externox

That’s crazy I just saw it damn , just like me the other day with SPY sold to early would’ve made 30k but what thing for sure if we get to see another day and profit it’s profit

Neel_Crashkari

There's a burning sensation in my groin SPY 695

Gom_KBull

SPY 700 this week people

cowboycookie1337

1% an hour on SLV and you schmucks are busy flipping shitty 0dtes on SPY

BullishDaily

Seconding this. Not just green SPY blows past 700…

baristabull

Went full regard and put all my cash in SPY options for a SCOTUS decision that may or may not happen tomorrow. I bet they push the decision back just to fuck my options and the market goes sideways just to fuck me. 🙃

That's fine to not know it all yet, that's why the suggestion to get it invested into an S&P500 index (largest 500 publicly traded companies in the USA) while you learn more is a reasonable suggestion in my opinion. S&P500 is the benchmark that most other things are compared against to determine if they were "successful", i.e. did they beat the S&P500? When you hear about people saying so and so "beat the market", they're almost always talking about them outperforming the S&P500 specifically. So if you invest into an S&P500 index fund like VOO, FXAIX, SPY (separate S&P500 index funds managed by Vanguard, Fidelity, and Spyder repsectively) you will be matching the "market rate". Whether that is a gain or a loss is another story. Order of importance of what accounts to put money into is generally described on this sub as: 1.) 6 months of expenses in HYSA (i.e. money market fund, highly liquid) as "emergency fund" 2.) 401k contributions to meet full employer match 3.) Max an IRA 4.) Max out the 401k contribution 5.) Taxable brokerage As far as what investments to make, if you're young something like 50% S&P500 index or US total market index (like VT), 50% Global index this sub might recommend. But it depends on your risk tolerance. There are other funds that have a good chance to outperform those, but you might see -50% on a down year where S&P500 might just be down -20%. Personally I like to research companies and pick stocks, but I'm also not a professional, so I like to hedge my picking by allocating around 50% of my entire account portfolio to S&P500, then pick riskier index funds or individual stocks with the rest. I also spend all day every day focusing on it, which not everyone wants to do, so the general recommendation on this sub (this sub slants to low-risk consistent gain over time) is to stick to index funds.

BullishDaily

Yeah but if SCOTUS shoots down tariffs tomorrow SPY might do it

BullishDaily

SPY 700?

BullishDaily

SPY 700 ready to fly?

Fhyzikz

I think SPY 700 might just be a myth. I'm losing faith, brother

BullishDaily

SPY 700 tomorrow would literally make me kneel down and praise all that is holy

roke34442

I have been doing good with 0dte SPY options. Don’t keep them long. Today I made 4 trades in and out in the first hour and sat with cash the rest of the day. My best trade was 106% in 6 minutes. I only made $250 today but once I get more confidence in my strategy I hope to increase my bets. I am not in a hurry.

Fhyzikz

Take that, rewind it back. Usher got the beat to make SPY 700

ComfortablePiglet842

RIP all the millions of 0dte SPY call holders today. Looks like a lot of people really thought 700 today

financiallythriving

SPY +2% tomorrow and I’ll quit options forever I swear on my foreskin

Boston-Bets

I'm looking long term, to get my RKT shares into a Tax-Free/Deferred "Exchange Fund" but that will likely be after 1-3 after RKT and the Housing upswing runs it's course. Right now, to me SPY = AI bubble driven.

Scribble_Box

Fr. Gf asks whether she should buy a new toy for the dog. 25 dollars for that piece of Chinese plastic trash that he's never going to touch? Hell no. Fucking rip off. Then proceed to lose 2k in SPY 0dtes....

Sidney_Godsby

SPY = / = SLV lmao

No-Improvement3164

SPY is Almost 100 percent higher than the bottom in 2022

FartCanCivic

Meh, more like to play the red and black days accordingly and stay out on those Green Day’s (lol, American idiot started playing in my head), it helps the compounding effect when you have core positions (like SPY) but again, most people can’t do it, sometimes even the ones that can.

Sharp-Direction-6894

I bought x2 1dte SPY 690 puts earlier. They closed down.

Mental_Ingenuity_310

Cause when we default on our debt, lower rates, and print money you will wish you could buy SPY under 1000 Can’t sell stock cause there is no where to put money safely cause our currency is about to be intentionally pillaged

DRCAG3SUN

Is my SPY 950c 1dte I picked up today gonna print tomorrow

JakeSal10

OCGN calls too, SPY puts

Aggressive_Instance1

Just use market orders with Schwab...1k contract order on SPY will easily be filled in seconds. Plus, you watch the bid get raised to your market order/ask price. Youre best to watch and wait til there are abt 2500 sells waiting and click buy/ and kaboom, filled at that price. Read the Level2 and watch the tape - your 1k contracts will quickly be followed by other orders. 1k contracts in 5 seconds isn't the moving the market.

iShitBloodandCumShit

SPY = dog shit SPX = god shit

grantern2

The fib boyz are shorting SPY tomorrow

grantern2

Yes, it’s the perfect time do invest in 0dte SPY puts

Crazy_Donkies

Nah. Investors are expecting swings in either direction.  Call put ratio is still favoring calls, last I read.   You know vix looks at SPY calls and puts, right? 

himaalayan

VIX spiked while SPY being flat, corn up 5%, not looking good for market tomorrow

PalpitationSmooth992

SPY options are easy if you just wait til the last 30 min strangled and straddled my way to 1500 profit for the day and free 694 calls key is to use a real broker that lets you close 0day up to 15 min after close

Leaguefin4073

Hello, I am so happy that I found this thread as I have a question suitable for it. I know there is abundance of threads explaining how vertical contracts must be closed and not executed for profit, but I have not found an answer for my specific question. First of all my broker is Tastytrade, and yes, I feel stupid about contacting them in this matter. The stock is not index like SPY, and I did not find anything about the contacts getting cash-settled if kept untill expiration. There surely must be somewhere something about this situation and I would be very grateful if someone could point it out for me. My situation: If I have ITM bull call spread (call debit spread), but it has very low liquidity and I am afraid that I will not be able to sell it anywhere near the profit that I would get from the execution of the both legs, and the time is running out, what are my possibilities? It is also important to mention that I possibly do not have enough funds on my margin account to buy the stock. (I can free it up, but I would prefer not to). Besides, how would it work with the short leg? I have kept my account so tiny that I do not even have the margin benefits enabled on it, although it is a margin account. Does anyone have clear information/experience? What is the best thing to do? I don't think I will be able to sell it before expiration.

AuttieBear

SPY is gonna make me wait an hour after market open to trade

andytobbles

POTUS just said it’s time to invest, last time he said that shit SPY went up 10% lmfao

\#1 Find a strategy that you feel comfortable with. For me this is only trading my SPY strategy, this is my edge and it is my ONLY edge. This is the reason I can actually make money consistently. \#2 Have someone in your life who can keep you accountable and consistent. This is the most important thing. For me, this is my gf, she has helped me claw my way from the depths of hell by keeping me accountable. I couldn't do it without her support. \#3 Use your strategy ONLY, no FOMO. Stocks will fly by and posts will convince you to dump your money in a stock but this is not a smart play for a beginner. \#4 Find your own edge. A robotic strategy alone is too hollow. The market is too unpredictable. You need to learn how a stock moves, and how your strategy relates to it. You need to learn exactly when to sell when you're up, when to cut losses when you're down. Not to revenge trade. For me, this took months of losing. Several months ago I made 20k and ended up with 0 in the end. Just know that experience is your best teacher and every loss brings you closer to understanding. Options are amazing if you can be disciplined.

People that won out on that last SPY pump: a.) Irrationally optimistic gamblers b.) Inside traders

RedStag1905

The infamous 3:50 candle. Moving SPY $1

FarWay9137

Is this when SPY shoots up to end the day green?

Ok_Cry7572

No way, the markets crash now when Netflix, meta, apple are all below 100D MA when SPY is close to ATH

LiveMotivation

SPY might break 700 tomorrow

Tundra1111

Realistically SPY 700 tmrw is possible, we can rebound

Is SPY about to rip tomorrow assuming SCOTUS Tariff news comes out as them being illegal?

LeBhikariLe

SPY gathering momentum on the down leg

composer98

I find the reddithead "all ETF" unanimity puzzling, personally, and while overbalancing on a single stock can be risky, if owning 500 stocks in order of market cap is "risky" while owning VOO is "safe", then the world is upside down. So, while I might still use SPY or QQQ for rapid purchases of a relatively large position, by now I own approximately 800 positions with none of them unnaturally large. As just like you, OP, I love learning about companies, how they evolve and adapt, and how they adjust to macroeconomic conditions; I also find it interesting to watch how trends sway giant masses of people together. Last year was a good year for most everyone, of course, but with a relatively large international group of stocks, return here was over 40% on a mix of personal, retirement, and trust accounts; and always with a fairly large bond and short term position, probably even too large (30-40%).

No_Inspection649

I don't want to brag, but I made money on SPY calls today. The luck of the Irish!

LeBhikariLe

SPY finally following the VIX characteristics. VIX didn't drop throughout the day, so SPY dumping now

Fhyzikz

Fuck meta I was talkin SPY, my G

Valkorion335786

The world would collapse in on itself like a dying star if SPY ever made me money

G_I_Joe_Mansueto

Well I hope the Supreme Court ends the Trump tariffs tomorrow and SPY goes up 1% but they also may not rule tomorrow and also it may be priced in and also nothing matters.

Put_Er_There_Sport

Im gonna need the supreme court to authorize a 3% jump on SPY tomorrow.

LeBhikariLe

VIX is still high for the movement SPY showed today. Dump continues tomorrow?

hermeskino715

Seeing 🌽 up and SPY down irritates me

Valkorion335786

25% tariff on countries doing business with Iran? SPY 700 confirmed

Some of you don’t remember the fight for SPY 600 and it shows

sailortyx56

"Stock market should be going up way faster than it is, Powell is trying to kill my market" Even he is frustrated SPY is not at 700.

soulles_lies

600k volume on SPY $695 0 DTE CALLS . Damn ! Wonder how many people got their ass kicked today ! I am one of them

SeveralBollocks_67

SPY up 20% since Jan 21st 2025 btw

ihopethisworksfornow

SPY will be flat until bulls and bears learn to treat each other with kindness and respect

SeveralBollocks_67

SPY up 19% over the past year btw

tropicalia84

Lmao I bought SPY 690 weekly calls at open yesterday and sold them this morning and am buying this dip New all time highs 3 out of the last 4 days and you think any bull is cooked lmao

Roygbiv-Turtle-98

Exactly my point. Inflation will not stop because rates will keep dropping and stonks will keep flying. SPY might be at 800-900 but inflation won't be coming down. And, don't forget JPOW is part of the problem. Never got rates high enough to actually fight inflation.

Roygbiv-Turtle-98

jerome out means stonks will fucking fly. SPY 800 by June most likely.

soulles_lies

Well no matter what he says SPY isn’t going up today. Phaaaaaaaak

ten7four

Paid $1600 today to pass my car inspection. I like to think I just whiffed on some SPY 0dtes and it makes me feel much more ok with it.

FarWay9137

Hehehe, SPY isn't going back up to $695 today right?

DarthOniichan

SPY about to hit a new daily low.

Bit of a drop at the moment but have you considered our lord and savior SPY 700 EOY?

financiallythriving

SPY 950c 1dte

cscrignaro

You should have sold those calls instead, not purchased. Black dirt breakdown when SPY is near/at ATHs is not the stock you want to be in. Bail on these and do something smarter. Never try to front run a bounce without any support nearby. It's like trying to short stocks at ATHs, it can just keep going until you're burnt out. Your dte is way too short to even consider holding.

UndercoverOptions

A collar absolutely reduces the price risk of being long SPY, but it doesn’t guarantee you won’t get margin called. Margin calls are driven by broker risk + changing requirements, not just your “max theoretical loss.” In a real crash/gap-down event, brokers can jack up SPY margin overnight and they may not fully credit the protective put immediately, especially when spreads blow out and liquidity dries up. So you can still get squeezed even though you’re “hedged.” Also with a collar you’re short a call, so early assignment (dividend/ITM) can create messy settlement/margin situations. Have you thought about LEAPS/call spreads?

Gom_KBull

# SPY down .3% = calls down 99% LMAO

orangeyougladiator

SPY is such a pussy. Just end the day below 600 so we can have some memes at least
