SPY moving like a door stop spring that was flicked.
#SPY opened down -1.5% and now only down -0.6%. Meanwhile most individual stocks only went lower since open. Looks like they figured out a way to pump only SPY without pumping any individual stocks. LMAO🤌
its what everyone thinks SPY is
SPY is a meme coin atp
AMD green and SK MU all green. SPY gonna be green soon 🐂🐂
SPY losing 15 mins of gains in 2 minutes, this is very normal
A plane just struck the green candle on SPY.
747 on SPY and 700 on QQQ rejected again. SPY is going to 735 today
SPY with the full dollar movement in 7 seconds, very cool and normal
wtf SPY tradling like memory stock now .

you can see the algo pushing SPY under 745.50 everytime lol
VIX still up, but DXY slumped downwards. The following SPY price movements are going to be pretty violent as they settle these orders. VIX will need to be suppressed going into the end of the day for this to work out for market makers, and they're not going to do it smoothly or quietly. VIX puts here will be fun scalps.

Believe it or not, SPY 750. We want to swipe Asia highs.

MU looks to be reversing but SPY not ready to follow suit.

SPY wants to re-tank so bad
I’m not trading SPY today as options premium are insane. Made good money from my SPY $757 puts. I sold for $16
People don't realize how long concentration takes to recover when the cycle actually turns. If you bought QQQ at the peak in 2000, it took 14 years just to break even. SPY did it in 7. It's easy to run a concentrated portfolio when everything is green, but that recovery timeline is what kills you. How're you managing the transition back into value?
Bro more than half S&P is blood red. HOW IS SPY NOT 400.
Could you imagine how red SPY would be if MSFT were *green* right now?

Just avoid direct AI stuff for a few days. Another open source model came out of China and it completely stomps anything US has. SPY 700 is not a meme. Just remember what happened when China released its last model last year, we sold off hard...
#For every 0.1% that SPY dips, individual stocks dip another 1% LMAO🤌
SPY 690 soon you heard it here first
SPY not allowed to go below 740 or go above 760.
GLD finally diverged from SPY, I yearned for days like this 🥹
What? The SPY 746 call at open was ~$1.00, ~$0.50 at 9:40, and ~$2.00 at 10:10
SPY will recover to breakeven by EOD while my port will still be down 10%
Between now and close, if SPY could sink down to where it opened, I'll be a happy woman.
0DTE gamma cuts both ways. A 0.4% move on SPY is roughly $2.20. If your strike was even slightly OTM, theta decay on a same-day expiry can easily exceed that directional gain. The math is brutal: you needed the move to happen fast AND be large enough to overcome the rapid time decay curve, which goes parabolic in the last hours. This isn't bad luck, it's a predictable outcome. 0DTE OTM options are priced almost entirely on theta and gamma. IV crush after the open is the norm, not the exception. The lesson: being right on direction is maybe 30% of the trade on 0DTE. Timing, strike selection, and entry IV matter more.
Why does the bigger SPY not simply eat QQQ?
So SPY is really gonna be range bound forever :(
SPY Icarus’d its way too close to the sun.
And now starts the rip to kill both sides. SPY $751 EOD.
Just get on with it and die, SPY
Ack below premarket high on SPY
SPY flat on the month. Fuck you theta gang
YTD SPY chart is…heck, the three month - it’s like an artistic rendering of corruption…
If you thought dip buyers were going to let SPY below 740 today you deserve to have your puts expire.
#SPY dips -1.5%, every stock dumps 3-4%. SPY recovers most of the dump and gets to -0.5% and every stock is still down 3-4%. LMAO🤌
Now watch as insiders who thought the news they got was so bullish they had to pump SPY .5% in mind have changed their minds and think the very same news is now apocalyptic and sell off by .5% in minutes
#I've never seen SPY's performance this disconnected from stocks' performance before LMAO🤌
#I love how SPY opened down -1.5% and recovered to -0.55% while 90% of stocks still trading at day's low LMAO🤌
Just don't stay flat SPY, I woke up late and want to play

Market manipulation. Everybody places their bets before companies announce their earnings date on wsb. I’ve always thought it was super inefficient for companies to only announce the Friday before but im not in charge of SPY 🤷
I don’t believe in the memory trade, but I need it to work for the next couple weeks again just to save my SPY calls

SPY options were 0DTE, the AAPL option was 1DTE
Yeah so dictionary definition of dead cat bounce is the past 40 min for SPY.

SPY at $750 will let me breakeven and max pain is $751. I’m glad I averaged down on that bottom or I woulda been royally fucked lmao
what is even pumping SPY though, I just see a sea of red stocks
I'm calling a big red SPY dive but I can't buy puts now or it will moon. Schrodinger's market. Does exactly what I think it will do until I take positions.
$SOXL $SPY $QQQ $SOXX Nothing new , all know AI spending. What’s new news to scare , when no recession Big banks gave strong earnings Hyper scaler have big cash flow annually, so debt load and they pack easily, not an issue
Well that was the easiest buy on QQQ and SPY
MSFT and AAPL running counter to SPY and QQQ is hilarious
I don't believe this until SPY and my port back to ATH
I love how I can actually tell when my options orders are fulfilled. Trade goes through, line goes down. Even on moves I think are safe. Only way to not lose money on options seems to be buying well-in-the-money SPY calls
Calls was so obvious 😭 what an overreaction SPY CALLS HITTING
$SPY $QQQ $SMH loading on red Choice between war and midterm , if market go big red means, GOP loose midterm , they try to pump even beg to withdraw all troops
SPY doing the V , but tech still fked
I'm a bear but anyone who thinks SPY can go -2% in a day is just a doomer. This was a very obvious bounce
That gap between being right on direction and still losing money is really just delta versus theta doing exactly what they're built to do on 0DTE. A same day option has almost no time value left to protect it, so unless the strike was already deep in the money with a delta close to 1, a 0.4 percent move in SPY only nudges the option's price a small amount, while theta on 0DTE contracts accelerates hardest in the final hours and can wipe out a gain that size on its own. If the calls were bought with implied vol elevated from overnight uncertainty and that vol came back down once the actual move turned out to be small, the IV crush stacks on top of the theta and does even more of the damage. None of that means the read was wrong, it just means 0DTE pricing is built almost entirely around how much and how fast the move happens, not just which direction it goes, so a small correct call often loses to time decay before direction ever gets credited.
Nothing. Wait and see how Google Earning is like next week (Wednesday). If its good and it pump then maybe we start buying. Right now its best to stay on the sideline because I don't think the sell it done yet. VIX should pump next week too so it may take SPY down with it too. Right now only QQQ and SMH is down. SPY is pretty much fine.
Just loaded 10k worth of puts into $332.5 puts. If it goes far enough it will break even. I already made $20k off of my SPY puts today on market open and cashed out all of it
This is the most fight SPY has had all week, this is the bottom congrats if you caught it
> shiddd... SPY is crashing and everyone's distracted. now's our chance! \- software
Are we looking at the same SPY?
SPY was once at 630 this year. This red day is weak bers.
$SPY $QQQ We saw war before, last 200 days. Nothing burger, buy on big red, we are heading midterm, they pump again
You are right We need a circuit breaker for the true comedy. What is this pussy shit? Fall of the cliff, SPY!
