I get the same volatility or more with TLT, most financial guidance would suggest something like bnd or bndw. Or you could just load up a target date fund
Yes! Its liike TLT, while I dont think its the greateest indicator i nthe world, it difnluence me to buy priotective puts and some others for profit before close, worked out well
$TLT time to load, when all AI-scam heading recession
TLT getting shit on again
I was very excited about the 10 year. TLT grind taken to the woodshed again
So this is TLT right? basically like inverse but youre right it's bad
It’s been a rough goddamn while. Even I took a little hit on TLT. Was not expecting that much down :/
daly's usually one of the more dovish voices on the fomc so her saying hikes is a bigger deal than logan saying it. if that sticks the front end reprices first, so short duration stuff like BIL or SGOV holds up fine while long bonds like TLT take the hit.
TLT will probably make a higher low.
Hmmmmm TLT pumping…..bond market closed…… bonds been following indexes and TLT inverse bonds…… oh no
Well TLT etc can still show you implied moves
I saw TLT trading at an all time low and figured that made sense compared to everything else.
Tbh, those guys will lose money on TLT as well.
buy dips in $TLT perhaps
QQQ is fading and TLT on the rise. Not looking good fellas
Up 3.21% on TLT including monthly distributions, at a time when qqq is down -9% AMA
Looks like a lot of the cash accumulated during the selloff didn't get rotated into any other stocks, some went into bonds. Either this was the freakout, maybe it lasts another month or so....or....TLT finna rip faces
TLT will stage a generational return.
Over the last month TLT has gone up 6.5% and the SPY has gone down 4.9%, not counting distributions. Hmmmm....that cant be normal
Crazy crackhead movement on both the SPY and TLT I wonder if the markets are permanently broken at this point with the high frequency algo trading
a pathetic little squeeze maybe, kinda like in 2007, but no crazy new highs. probably driven by buy the dippers but that will run out fast. i'm still long but i will DCA into cash if we get a year end rally. that cash will be locked and loaded into gold, TLT and crypto at major generational lows.
just got $300 in TLT dividends it's over bears :money: :money: :money:
if you think the drop may continue and are wondering which stock to buy to hold it out, remember, TLT is not a bad bet, it's a bond etf pays better interest than cash while you wait, and if they dump rates to boost the market, TLT will win a bit too (no position)
Two things that are easy to check. The new Congress isn't seated until January, and anything it passes on tariffs still needs a signature or a veto override, so "day 1" is a long way off either way. And if this were mainly a rates trade, TLT should be up a lot today. If it's roughly flat while semis are down 10%+, the market is telling you it's about tech, not rates
I think I’m gonna put like 2k into TLT, is that crazy?
we're going to balance the budget from all the capital gains taxes being cashed. buy TLT!
Normal defensive pattern: consumer staples, Healthcare utilities, TLT, ZROZ
Long MSFT / AMZN into December is probably a layup. TLT long potentially. Oil long potentially. Travel names long potentially. It will depend on the news, which makes things easier. The memory trade is much more complex in part due to the involvement of huge pod shops and other sharks.
That's sorta the problem. I went in XLP/XLU/SPYD/EURL/BRKB/TLT to rotate out of SOXL/AMD in the summer and now that they're all mooning (TLT has a ways to go) it's basically just... shave a little so I don't regret later. Which is to say I'm splitting between holding/cashing.
yeah, i was watching TLT; wild swiing
Bullish TLT, bullish gold, bullish inflation?
TLT is up .47% and it pays out a dividend today of 0.34 per share.
As stated again and again…the bears that survived are in gold and treasuries and today I get 0.34 per share of TLT boi
Any chance TLT will drop below 80 again so i can load up even more?
Why did TLT and VIX suddenly tank
TLT is up after hrs.... dem winning is bullish for rates. market will crash tomorrow but expecting strong rally in small caps (non tech) in the next few months

TLT starting to look appealing
I've almost made back everything I lost yesterday, so hooray? Anyway, one thing to look out for: yesterday was both the ex-dividend date for TLT and a the end of Bessent's Bond Buyback Extravaganza. To no surprise, bonds resumed selling off after failing to break back above that floor they spent years and years hanging out at, and the 10-year ripped quite a bit today while nobody paid attention. A lot of the money going back into this tech rally is coming out of bonds, so don't be surprised if we hit a moment tomorrow or Wednesday when it's like uh oh, we're back above 5%.
AAPL been acting like it’s gonna turn into TLT lmao
I wouldn't assume bond buyers know something we don't. Falling yields alongside weak tech could also point to slowing growth expectations. I've been comparing TLT, QQQ, and defensive sectors on my infinite dashboard to see whether money is actually rotating toward safety. If defensives keep outperforming while yields fall, there might be more to this than just portfolio rebalancing.
Yes I think dropping VGT and having room for other assets is worth doing. Your brokerage, particularly aimed at the house fund, could be a great opportunity to get hands-on and learn about how some different types of assets and investments work. SGOV is an option, with a lot of stability, and a 30-day yield of ~3.8%. You could look at putting a portion into a CD, or CD ladder, and lock in closer to 5% for the duration of the holding. Likewise with a purchase of Treasury notes. You could look at corporate bonds on the secondary market. You could look at longer-duration or lower-credit bond funds. The 30-day yield on TLT is 5.3%. On ANGL it's 7.5%. Bond funds do come with interest rate risk, which can work for or against you. With an individual bond you get your principal back at maturation. With a bond fund, at some point down the road your purchase value might be up or down. So you've got this opportunity, with an intermediate-term investment goal, to put a little bit of money in a few different baskets and get a feel for them. How they respond to market movements and economic conditions. That can be great learned experience for down the road as your investment accounts grow, your income increases, and you need to make future investment choices with larger sums of money.
Fake peace deals usually pump TLT but there it is, back to dying.
It’s why I never buy puts or sell covered calls; if I’m bearish we doing USFR TLT or gld
I'm basically flat, and I think I get a dividend from TLT soon that I can spend on beans.
I still have one TLT call just to remind me why the fuck I paper hand all the times. I bought at 1.6 Jan calls sold at 2.15, now its 3+ Fucking free money I am 100% regarded
Oh no I'm talking about the suckas staying cash gang with inflation as high as it is. TLT sitting at 81, 5/10Y trading pretty damn good
Yolo account? Ibit sldp and ERII….in my more intelligent account? 100% TLT starting late August
Don't. If you must, don't even attempt day-trading with your schedule imo, or generally but that is a preference. Next, chart patterns bull flags, head and shoulders, h formations, trend lines, candle stick patterns can often be unhelpful give you information at best. I think VWAP and naked charts would probably be more helpful than any of them for short-term trading with experience. Again though with your schedule I wouldn't even consider trading short-term, if you really want to gain experience with that than paper-trade (note that trading real money will be a very different experience). I'd say start with trying to swing trade shares out right with real money first to see if you actually have an edge with choosing entries and exits. You could also look into the Wheel on stocks you want to own long-term, check out r/Optionswheel I've always had a lot of respect for u/ScottishTrader. In the past I've recommended Ford as a good one to practice the Wheel, TLT (20 year US treasuries) is my current recommendation. Needs a bit nuance about how bonds works tbf. LEAPS (over a year to expiry) are also an option for your schedule, but learn basic stuff about the Greeks first (how options contracts are valued), for instance the rule of thumb is stick to .7 Delta, but again don't do anything with options first. Try swing trading shares that you are willing to hold for a minimum of 1-3 years if not 5 imo. Good winds.
unironically it's exactly what I did in July and end of September. Went long MCD/PEP/TLT instead of buying puts on tech LMAO. Worked just fine without the stress of "shorting"
Classic WSB portfolio 😂 Relax, NBIS is a good company and should recover. ASTS and RKLB are memes though. I do think the space sector will continue to have violent booms and busts. I would not buy them again and just drop them as soon as they recover. The era of making easy money with meme stocks is pretty much over for now. Gotta wait for the next time it happens. (Could still come back soon) Unironically i like TLT here lol
Inverse WSB means shorting TLT here bros lmao
This is my all-weather zero-stress allocation: 20% VTI 20% AVUV 20% TLT 20% GLDM 20% BOXX
Sorry about your mom. Sorry doesn't really come close to covering it in a situation like this, but I really do empathize with your situation. I lost my mom to brain cancer a few years ago. We tried to do a few bucket list items, but had to cancel most of it because she just wasn't able to do them. Life can be short and brutal and tragic. We do need to find ways to take care of ourselves in the midst of all the challenges and chaos that get thrown at us. To find some joy within it all. and even to get through all the mundane tasks of each day. In terms of finances and how to live: In the final analysis each one of us has to define that for ourselves. You get to decide how you want to do it, no matter what any person (or AI!) on the internet says. Choose what feels right to you. For me it came down to finding a balance between spending a bit more to make \*today\* enjoyable and to have things to look forward to in the near term (next few months/the next year) and still being responsible with respect to my long term financial security. But before I settled on that path I did spend a couple years "over spending" (after having gone through a phase similar to yours of being hyper-focused on saving). I definitely had some fun with it, but all of that spending really didn't "fix" how I felt about losing my mom or give me the kind of joy/meaning that I had hoped (and that I needed). I dialed things back a bit and found a kind of balance that worked for me. I spend $$$ on my family/kid, on travel, I don't worry about what I spend on groceries or the gym and a few other things like that. And I refocused on long term financial planning so that I didn't feel stressed or anxious about my long term future (should I be lucky enough to live that long!). You will have your own mix of things that are actually really worth it to you. Definitely give yourself some freedom to experiment and figure out what works for you. \---- Specific thoughts: Maybe don't stop saving entirely. If you've got a 401k plan where your employer matches, I would keep doing that. You don't have to max it out, but maybe 50-80% of max? If your employer doesn't match, try to max out your Roth IRA contribution. For now I would invest in very stable things: maybe even bonds (SGOV or TLT). Just as a way to protect your capital during a time in your life that is already challenging. It's hard enough to deal with all the things related to your mom, maybe it's a good time to dramatically decrease risk so that you don't see red every time you open your portfolio. Once you're feeling more stable you can start moving back into index funds and even individual stocks. and maybe it's worth giving some time to thinking about where you'd most benefit from spending more. and then try it and see how it goes. and to generally give yourself some room to be more flexible with your spending/saving plan. If something important comes up and you want to spend money on it, you can be flexible and say Yes to that even if it means adjusting your savings plan a bit. \---- Good luck with all of it! Life has seasons and some of them can be very hard. Hang in there and spring will come at some point..
I did the same but using TLT, my only concern is I won’t deploy on the dip
Next time we giga rally to ATH maybe add TLT and gold too.
Loaded my mom up on TLT when yields came down sharply. Annoyed i didn't buy the absolute TLT bottom.
Guys look at the valuations of DELL fucking computer, SANDISK, and many others. This was a generational bull run. If you actually sold and converted to cash or boomer stocks like T, TLT, etc - grats. If not, you still have time.
And now TLT is negative. Great.
Shit even TLT selling off. All money rotate into propping up TSLA I guess?
Bonds are going to be super-duper important. I think TLT is gonna see 08 levels of action soon
I really like that strategy I’ll be playing TLT like a bankruptcy play through into February 😂
Oh I'm going to be actively trading out my bonds, I don't think we stay anywhere under 6% for a while. Just sitting on TLT and adding only to that for now until markets get a more clear direction
Ugh. Looks like I'm gonna have to be just fine with my TLT gains then in perpetuity
SOXL looking at TLT as they pass by each other https://preview.redd.it/y02v76lhilyh1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6f12953142813f596354aa5b081119b0ae8d2503
SOXL and TLT same price :wow:
I thought I had another week! I locked my port into bonds and TLT, and I’d need to lose a bit of money doing that. Day trading is a hobby and pays my credit card bills on my wages, and if I fail I go homeless. Can’t make risky burry bets :(
i'm gonna buy TLT calls again tomorrow and maybe IWM calls but I haven't checked the price on those yet. not sexy but should be easy money
things arent that bad or people wouldnt be buying TLT still lol
My new gambling is getting hyped up that TLT goes up 2 cents a minute. 🚀
Everyone is going to get rich!... by full porting $TLT :kek:
TLT keeps giving me hope. Just break $82-$83 already and I can forgive google.
Hi, sorry I was banned from reddit for 3 days and could not respond. Yes I still hold TLT as a hedge against a possible downturn.
Bonds ded again. Warsh the grim reaper of TLT.
My TLT puts continue to print. It's honestly saving my port from this metals dump
Congrats to anyone who bought TLT shorts.
Any of ya'll playing TLT today?
Ask your bank to put you in VOO or VT. Don't let them put you in bonds. Can buy TLT and GLD in small amounts (maybe 10% each) since they are cheap enough right now to actually hedge a crash efficiently. But do sell all bonds in the next market crash if yields do in fact collapse.
