Don't worry! I'm down 89% on my SPY calls for Tuesday but that'll be 96% soon!
it just too rare to see SPY go down 1%+ these days and people get used to that.
Huge green candle on the SPY and huge red fuck you on my port. Balanced like all things should be
Not defending OP on SPX vs SPY, but maybe he is doing it for the option to exercise early? Even though I doubt exercising the option is part of the play. That would be the only reason to play SPY vs SPX.

If earnings are judged by the price reaction, I’d pin down the event window and benchmark first: for example, the close-to-close move around the release versus SPY or the sector, then whether it persists a week. Otherwise a broad rally can look like a stock-specific reaction. Do you use a fixed window for earnings setups?
SPY 850 before midterm elections .. this shit is going full retard
I can bet my port tomorrow after market open SPY will dump😝
The post gives explicit reclaim levels and invalidation points for both SPY and NVDA. To make the wave count testable, could you keep a dated ledger of each weekly level—close relative to the trigger, whether invalidation or target was hit, and the forecast horizon? A small calibration table would show whether these levels add information beyond a simple breakout/mean-reversion baseline.
SPY almost at ath, Qs up, Micron down 🤔
"If you make at least 10k/year gambling on options you should consider taking a Carnival (CCL) cruise and spending some time in the casino." If you're gambling this much on the reg they'll give you free cruises in a balcony room or suite with the drink package and other perks (including the wifi package so you can continue gambling on 0dte SPY calls). I say this as a degenerate.

100% accurate. But they are not equivalent. SPY and SPX, especially 0dte options, do not move in lock-step. So directly applying my strategies to both results in worse performance on SPX. SPY is more..... forgiving? I guess that is what I would call it. Also, the spread on SPY is almost never more than .01. On SPX it varies in multiples of .1 a lot more often.
SPY and QQQ need the day Kospi is having
I called FBI on my neighbor who is a ber. THE FBI SHOWS UP AT 6 AM. 🚔🇺🇸 👮 Agent: "We received a report of suspicious financial activity." 🐻 Neighbor: "I bought two SPY puts." 👮 Agent: "...How many?" 🐻 Neighbor: "Two contracts." 👮 Agent: "WE NEED THE FINANCIAL TERRORISM TASK FORCE. NOW." 💀💀💀 #LMAO🤌

The year is 2030. Two algos just traded the same share of SPY back and forth for 6 hours. SPY goes +1% for the day.
Well different sites have different numbers. They don't say that. Also, SPY and SPX are TOTALLY different.
It’s actually your cue to not be exit liquidity and buy 6 month out SPY puts and average them since the premiums are cheaper than the volatility premium alone will be worth a month from now.

(1) I've seen bonds yields in the past, that period of time is over. Yes, I do weight recent observations more, that's exactly why I am saying "they are high". In **today** environment of supposed "2% inflation", yields are not low imo. (2) SPY has a low fwd PE for a reason, I've said this as well yes. The multiple has gone down since last year but SPY is still up. No, most stonks in SPY do not have very low PE, it's still above historical avg. And it's not just AI with their 50s-100s PE, even fucking Costco or Walmart have 40 PE today. (3) Yes I am considering equal weight SPY and bonds together. But equal weight SPY sucks if we get into a recession. The job market suffers from high rates and AI taking jobs, it's a risk you need to consider. (4) LMAO at the last part... what cardinal rule am I even breaking that's so bad? No dude I will not buy and hold SPY in this environment, I am always bullish and have been for the entire past year for example (even during tariffs). I went fully invested, max long, on tqqq, just a day after liberation day. This year I sold everything after the first week of the Iran war (at a small "loss" vs the top) and bought back in almost everything the day SPY hit -10% (when 🥭posted his famous tweet). And that was exactly the bottom btw, last day of march. If you tell me "I got lucky timing the market" I will accept it, but as I said for me it's more about maximizing risk-reward. I don't see high reward being invested in SPY at the moment with such a bad macro situation, but I do see risks increasing. (5) Oil prices (and not just crude itself) are not normal and we will start to see their effects sooner or later through higher inflation, yields this high (compared to RECENT past years yes) are attractive, increasing difficulty for companies to get financing/higher rates are bearish for equities. Not sure why that's even a question. (6) telling me to just buy&hold spy is okay, it's what the average does and that works really well. It's what I used to do until last years and I always recommend everyone to do that. I am not going to do that, there is no reason to be bullish at the moment and eventually I will either jump back in or stay on the sidelines. I am not in a rush, I can wait.
SPY, trump made a bull tweet, if you reacted to that you would have lost money.
🚨 BREAKING: I'VE DISCOVERED THE REAL REASON STOCKS ONLY GO UP 🚀🌕 Listen UP While Goldman Sachs is spending $40 billion hiring MIT graduates to build quantitative trading models, I've been conducting groundbreaking research from my couch. THE ENTIRE STOCK MARKET IS CONTROLLED BY THE MOON. Think about it. The moon controls the tides. The human body is mostly water. Traders are humans. Therefore, the moon controls traders. THIS IS BASIC SCIENCE. And the rabbit hole goes deeper. 🌕 FULL MOON: Maximum gravitational pull on my portfolio. SPY calls preparing for liftoff. 🌑 NEW MOON: The moon is literally reloading. Accumulation phase. EXTREMELY BULLISH. ☀️ SOLAR FLARES: The sun is blasting Earth with free energy. How could this possibly be bearish for NVDA? 🪐 MERCURY RETROGRADE: Mercury is going backward, which means the market has to go forward. Newton's Third Law. Look it up. 🐂 CHINESE ZODIAC: Year of the Horse. Horses run fast. Bulls also run. SPY $800 confirmed. I've spent the last six hours backtesting this strategy against three YouTube videos and a fortune cookie. Results: 100% confidence. Zero statistical significance. Infinite upside. I LOOK AT THE SKY. The bears are studying unemployment reports while I'm calculating the gravitational pull of Uranus on the Nasdaq. YOU CANNOT PRICE IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM. SPY $800 EOY. NVDA $300. VIX going to zero. Bears getting liquidated in all 24 time zones. POSITIONS: 100% CALLS, 0% HEDGES, 200% ASTROLOGICAL CONVICTION. 🚀🌕🐂💎🙌 Not financial advice. I have been staring directly at the sun for confirmation.
My name is Lasykuuga. I'm in my 20s. My flat is in the shithole part of town where all the other poors and Indians live, and I am a single, certified degenerate. I work an accounting wage-slave gig corporate gig, and I log off every day by 3 PM at the latest cause I don’t actually do my job. I don't touch weed, but I've been known to sniff a shit ton of coke when my portfolio hits a new all-time low. I'm in bed by 7 am, and make sure I get two hours of sleep, no matter how many margin calls I get. After staring at the 1 minute SPY futures and pretending ah and pre-market actually matters, I usually have no problems crying until morning. Just like a baby who doesn't understand the concept of happiness, I wake up without any hope or dreams in the morning. My broker told me there were no margin violations at my last account check-up. I'm trying to explain that I'm a retail investor who wishes to live a very quiet life with my CFDS. I take care not to trouble myself with anything profitable, like index funds. That is how I deal with the stock market, and I know that is what keeps my hands diamond. Although, if I were to suck dick behind Wendies... I wouldn't lose to anyone.
I have SPY calls for Friday, hope we go upppppp :hammer:
Buy and DCA equal weighted SPY. Here's why: Yields are not high at all compared to historical data. At all. You're just used to historically low rates if you're under 35yo. Yields are doing nothing more than pricing in 3.2% inflation and a low risk free rate of return. Stock yields are still vastly higher than bond yields even when adjusted for risk. Youre still timing the market not buying SPY. SPY is the most traded equity and it's at a very low forward PE historically speaking. Most holdings are in SPY are at very low PEs. Sure an AI correction may dump the whole but over the long run equal weight will be better than any treasury yield. But you do you. I recommend you dont trade or manage any investments other than buy ETFs. Youre breaking like a dozen cardinal rules and aren't looking at actual data. Youre just reading "scary yields" and "oil at scary stuff levels."
I’m not sure that anyone trading less than 1000 share blocks is actually doing anything that has any impact regarding SPY.
the stock market is *not* the economy we'll be eating ramen three meals a day and SPY will be over $800 by end of year
Puts on SPY and QQQ all day.
Nice! Congrats. ; ) Do you ever buy options on QQQ or SPY?
"SPY 820 on PolyMarket, ber fuk lmao" - gullibulls
SPY 780 on hyperliquid lmfao bears
being canadian watching SPY rip higher while our currency bleeds out is a specific kind of pain. i bought spy in january thinking it was safe haven energy but now i'm just holding a bag that depreciates every time trump tweets. maybe i should have just bought a hockey stick and called it an alternative asset class. lmao we are cooked up here in the north.
I hope oil and yields keep going higher! We are at ATH, so clearly they move together! Let's hope we get oil at 200 and 10y at 10% so SPY can be at 1000
Q3-earnings time 10yr rate at 22 years high. AI companies revenue shrinking, as companies see not big profits from tokenized spending plan. Performance improvements doesn’t mean profits gain. Existing models good enough, no need new models, where is profit ? $SPY $QQQ see it
🚨 BREAKING: Microsoft and Adobe have just been vibe-coded and uploaded to the internet for FREE. 💀🤖 WELCOME TO ROUND 3 OF THE **SAASPOCALYPSE.** ☠️📉🔥 Meanwhile, oil is so expensive that filling up your car now requires a second mortgage. 🛢️⛽💸 Treasury bonds are paying so much interest that the U.S. government is about to start a GoFundMe to cover the coupon payments. 🇺🇸💵🤡 AI is eating software.

MAXIMUM DELUSION.** 🚀🚀🚀📈💎🙌🤡 THIS IS FINE. 🔥🐶☕🔥
Bers hoping SPY 100 by the end of the week
Yeah, I'm semi-retired and I wouldn't want anything in QQQ if I'm in in SPY (which I am not). I'd recommend much more VXUS (or equivalent for your country).
Okay well explain to me why QQQ is out performing SPY
We've seen what bad AI sentiment does in june-july and on thursday. The things to hide in are: SPYD (Went up >1% thursday while SPY was down) SAAS stocks RSP TLT While getting out of anything high beta.
🥭 announced ceasefire. Oil to 60, NVDA 300, AMD 750, SPY 850. My Christmas wish list
Is SPY being manipulated? Is there shit loads of volume going through dark pool orders? Honestly I have no idea what I’m talking about but it seems manipulated.

an ATH for SPY heading into midterms where a dem sweep is currently at 64% make the setup extremely tricky... can't long yet can't short...
Pretty blatantly obvious SPY moves the underlying stocks at this point when literally 90% of financial advisors that have been doing this for decades and used to be able to pick stocks now cant beat the SPY.
Hard to have thoughts without you also providing total trade volumes for the market and not just one etf. Also the ancient proverb comes to mind, does SPY move the underlying stocks or do the underlying stocks move SPY
SPY price in Dec 2019 was 1/3 of today’s.
volume on SPY doesn't tell the whole story though. SPY, SPX options, and ES futures should probably all be taken into consideration if you are going to draw any sort of conclusions
u/OP, 13x on 0DTE SPY is dope but keep a tight stop or a crummy day could wipe it all out. A Ferrari is a flash, but a modest $5k‑ETF that can survive the next crash might actually keep your deck higher in the long run. Yachting’s cool, just make sure the boat isn’t the only thing you’re trying to buy with those wild plays.
I don't time the market, I play the risk-reward game. You are risking a lot here for very limited upside, there has been almost 0 positive news since June. Mkt didn't go down but the multiple did (PE/fwd PE). In other words, mkt still "lost" even tho SPY is ath. Equal weight SPY is red, it's only the AI and semis that are keeping SPY up. Eventually AI will get into correction, this is my "bet". SPY should avg 7-10% per year? A bond gives me 5.5% risk-free. why tf would I own SPY here? makes no sense. Unless there is inflation, but are you sure SPY can outperform inflation as well? It's only natural than one start looking at bonds. I didn't buy bonds at 2-3% but now it seems like a good time even for someone that is far from retirement.
Actually insane how that was 4 years ago, wow. Felt like we'd never see SPY at 400 again.
Eh, spy did go down on the openai news and SPYD went up over a percent. Sure, you won't be ruined holding VOO/SPY, but SPYD and RSP will be the winner medium-term.
Even just VOO/SPY itself won't get hit that hard since funds just move into the non AI stuff in the index like Apple Wmt and the other defensives. VOO and chill retards stay winning
I’ve been using this for a long time. The success rate is very high, but it needs a big cash buffer. I don’t use it as the core of my portfolio though, it makes no sense that way. The premiums are pretty low. It works great, however, as a boost to the results of a regular short-volatility portfolio. In that case I’d make sure to sell them carefully and always keep a cash buffer in case volatility explodes. Personally I do it at 0.03–0.04 delta on SPY. You can also use VIX1D to check if the premiums are good enough. I let them expire. The catch is that losing trades happen very rarely, but when they do, they eat up the premium collected over several months of profits. It’s not a magic strategy for collecting free money. It just has a different risk distribution.
I buy and then it goes in the wrong direction everytime. I have no luck on SPY or and 0dte
It’s actually a great company. It’s not cool, it’s not an AI play (although AI should boost their productivity), not going to 10x next year, but it’s been an awesome investment. Up almost 36% over past year, 62% over past 5 years and since 2000, up 512%… (SPY 473% since 2000 for reference) They are well positioned to profit off of the aging baby boomers in the coming years.
I’m actually very surprised that LLMs aren’t smart enough to discern the difference between SPY and ES point scales.

McClintock made a million on SPY calls
Just did some intense research on SPY and it seems corrections only happen around April so we're still gucci till then
I can't wait to bet 1 dollar in 0dte SPY and actually win /s
It's true but you can also make substantially easy money on options if you know what you're doing. I own 40 shares of SPY and 400 shares of SCHD and I use the money that I make from options to buy more shares. I made $100 on SPY 0DTE calls by buying 10 right when it had that massive volume spike in the 11 o'clock hour, and I made $125 two days ago when it had that massive volume spike at 9:17 AM, both within the blink of an eye. I have over $42,000 invested in stocks, I just started investing last September, but I still like to trade options to get quick easy cash.
SPY will not be going to 800.
The calendar year loss for 2008 was -38-%, but the decline started in 2007, and the peak to trough drop was well over 50% for both the S&P and Nasdaq. Following the dotcom bust, Nasdaq dropped an eye popping 75% and SPY was down 49%. It took about 15 years to recover. “Lasting so long doesn’t really matter” is easy to say in theory, but since redditors shit their pants when the index drops a few percent, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say the reality would be very different. Half the problem with these investing subs is a plurality, if not majority, of posters are in their 20s and have only been investing since COVID and think this market is normal. Sorry, but if you were in diapers or elementary school when the global economy melted down, you don’t really know what you’re talking about
>Trump says Ukraine should get a new president as he blames Zelenskyy for US diesel prices Why would Biden team up with Zelenskyy? They must both have oil calls and SPY puts. :derp:
so 🥭is realizing that oil situation is getting worse and worse and that he is fuk tries to make a deal with his good old friend Pootin and fucks over Ukraine did I get this right? we're beyond fucked then. It's smelling more desperate: bonds, oil and AI slowdown, holy imagine... triple shock to the mkt at once. anyway calls on Monday SPY800 eom
The problem is that "the earnings" are massively concentrated in four companies. MSFT, NVDA, META, and AAPL. Those four companies accounted for 300 pts of SPY gain last quarter, while the other 496 companies combined for -150pts. Because of the weighting of the index, 41% of new inflows go to the top 10(2%) companies. Nvidia in particular is so concentrated by the weighting mechanism that it alone gets new investment flow equal to the bottom 256(51.2%) of companies...combined. The result is two different S & P 500s in one. Since September 14, the cap weighted S & P 500 is up 2.32%, while the Equal Weighted S & P 500(RSP) is actually -.95% during that time. What you're looking at is a bear market in the broader market being hidden by weighting mechanisms. The top few companies feast, while all the other companies are starved and most are already in a correction...or even bear markets. When the few tech leaders turn down, the index will drop like a stone.
Sorry for your loss buddy. My partner passed away a few years back. I am in my late 30s and working full time in IT, based in UK. After I had her funeral, I told myself I need to focus and I started learning and d ay trade options once a day. It is not that complicated. I have been sorting out some things and one of my goals is to reach a certain amount to stop working full time before I lose my job. It is a matter of time with how it is going in the economy. You can see my post in the subreddit in my profile over last 20 weeks. I have been growing a small accout to encourage people that one trade a day, 2-5 times a week is enough to grow an account consistently. I only have 2 vids on my youtube channel from march if last year, will try put more. I don't do any complex strategies, and trade only ETFs like SPY, QQQ, IWM etc
Wearing my SPY 300 hat
Yeah seriously don't short ever. A literal monkey could profit on the long side but short you're trying to walk up a stream. It drives me nuts seeing people load up on Spy puts and then they're like "OOO I'ma make so much money", then you ask why and they're like "because SPY's overvalued". SPY's always "overvalued" now because everyone collectively realized that the government will just donate corporations money the moment the tiniest bad thing happens
The average Redditor is financially retarded. They really think ITOT, VTI, and SPY will be front run or rug pulled by trump in the trump accounts lmao bunch of fucking idiots
We are now just buying SPY believe it or not
