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?

I thought that SPY dump in the morning fucked me. It was a warning by god and gave me my best trading day ever
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

Brother look at my post history. That was probably the lowest i have ever felt in my life and i felt like nothing could bring me happiness. A year later I have diverted my time to doing the things I enjoy while parking money in VOO and beefing up my 401k. Sometimes I come on here and sigh and remember the fun times but then I see posts like this and remember how I never want to feel that way ever again. So I have 2 pieces of advice for you. 1) It seems like this is bad. Guess what? It is! You lost money. That fuckin sucks. But it gets better. If you're anything like me you have a lot of time to make it back and spend/invest it in a more meaningful way. 2) Find something else to curb the itch. Pickup a new hobby or make yourself hangout with friends or go to the bar once a week or get a dog or a cat or learn how to play an instrument or something like that. When I was into trading I would spend every spare second and every spare dollar trying to swing trade or buy $2000 of SPY options just to sell it 30 seconds later. Turns out that's a lot of time and money and I had nothing to show for it. Life is about so much more than trading! So i guess what I'm saying is this shit is really fun but it's not a reliable way to build wealth. Everyone here knows that and assumes that risk. On the other side of your trade is an institution that is made up of a bunch of smart people who are getting paid to separate people like us from our money as efficiently as humanly possible. Don't let it drag you in further than you are willing to go/realize. Best of luck and i promise it gets better.
All I need is SPY to hit $5700 in the next 30 minutes and I am set for life, but of course it won’t because my luck is terrible
Up or down SPY make up your mind
Love buying the top, fuck you SPY
inverse head and shoulders SPY or no?
#JPow was way better at this shit. When he pumped markets he pumped all stocks. Not this "SPY in bull market individual stocks in bear market" bullshit LMAO🤌
It's not a therapeutics company, and $XBI is up 30% YTD while SPY is 10% besides.
We gonna get a proper power hour today on SPY?
SPY is flatter chested and gayer than Caitlyn Jenner.
#In 2-3 years SPY will hit $1000-1500 range while 80% of stocks will drill drill and drill LMAO🤌

Friendship over with SPY Now QQQ is my best friend
Broader market would be punished once the realization sets in that all that capex was burnt for nothing. Top 10 holdings is SPY accounts for 41%, so once the sell of sets in, broader market would also rope.
SPY new ATH either today or tomorrow during Mango speech... insane premeditation
Peace deal announcement coming up. SPY ripping to 760 and QQQ to 726.

Why SPY 9 green candles in a row
#Stock market is now a guessing game. Each day you are supposed to guess which stocks they will pump to keep SPY green since they pick different sets of stocks each day. LMAO🤌
SPY will be back to day high but individual stocks will be only up 2% from day lows
#They pump just enough stocks to keep SPY green but not one more each day LMAO🤌
#You fools!!! Even God himself couldn't stop SPY let alone a human LMAO🤌

#SPY at all time high even though most stocks are down 10% 20% or more from their recent highs LMAO🤌
Losing money on $SPY is a crime that is considered especially heinous.

Mag 7 absolutely pumped today, when the smaller caps come back SPY is going to rip.

Insane. The mag 7 are legit inverse QQQ/SPY. 🤣 They’ve been green all morning while SPY/QQQ have been drifting down. They’ve second they trend down, SPY/QQQ start a V recovery.

#We could have 99% of stocks red and SPY would still find a way to turn green LMAO🤌
Everyone is looking at the indices or SPY/QQQ
