Holding 11000 shares of ULTY. getting $1100 a week dividend. All I need is one year to make it all back.
ULTY? This dog shit is still going on. Watch the dividends decrease as well as the underlying, plus the NAV erosion. Man people will buy anything
Normally all those yieldmax etfs suffer from NAV erosion. It looks like ULTY somehow managed to solve that issue since spring, but it's absolutely impossible that they can generate returns of 100% every year. So I still believe investors in ULTY are doomed fairly soon.
Threw $500 into ULTY to see what the fuss was about roughly a week before it started dipping, with distributions I’m still only down ≈0.23%, so as soon as their stocks recover like the rest of the market I will be back in the green. So far it’s been a good investment imo, but risky until you recover your initial buy in.
Wsb translation for fellow regards: ULTY = 🚮 High yield → NAV nuked 📉 Divs went from 🍗 to 🥦 Small bet = lesson 🎓 Big bet = coffin ⚰️
Selling Jan and Apr 2026 cash secured puts on ULTY. THAT IS MY PLAY.
#A couple weeks ago everyone was like "ULTY is just like a hedge fund bro, their new strategy protects them bro" LMAO🤌
Its amazing ULTY isnt trading at $1.. fucking scam ETF.. takes your right pocket $ and pays you while stealing all your $ in your left pocket lol..
It’s over man panic sell. Comeback and buy ULTY then cry
YMAG is mag 7 stocks and ULTY is high beta stocks. Honestly it l depends on broader market. Good income if market is steady bi like these 2 because I can use 3x margin on them
I’m in ULTY and YMAG. Total 60k ish
lol ULTY took a huge dump last night and recovered minutes later. Some dude on /r/yieldmaxetf took 30k loss lol
Also.. ULTY is a scam.. pay you $0.1 a week but NAV goes down by $0.3. We might see a reverse stock spit in the coming months, maybe in Q3.
Idk if anyone here is into Yieldmax but ULTY had a flash crash. Look at the mf price action...
ULTY drilling HELOCs leveraged retards 🤣
Honestly? My gut. Hydrogen will have its place, it is a long term hold. At .03 why not. I have sensible and stable investments for retirement. I throw some of my ULTY dividends at it, after all it's gambling, if it hits I might get to retire early.
Just put it into something like ULTY that alone with $30k would get you around $500 paid weekly
Funny how the YouTube people talk up MSTY & ULTY. Yet Forbes who are much smarter than most if not all the YouTubers says BITO. Gee I wonder which to buy
ULTY uses 100% ROC at times. That why it’s not going up. BITO goes up and down like normal. Most YieldMax just go down on share price
Unlike ULTY which at certain times has done 100% return of your own money when paying dividends. So surprised it just keeps going down over time. NOT
ULTY back to $7.00 not in our lifetime
Did you look at ULTY options when the market was open. It seems like you aren't going to get a good fill to make it worth writing a covered call.
I’m failing to see an upside or for ULTY to even maintain its NAV. It’s down 6% in just the last month while the major indexes are hitting all time highs..if the market falls 20% like it did in Feb-April, it’s going to be like $3 and some change. The dividend will reduce total losses hypothetically. All I can say is if you have ULTY you’d better have some downside protection however it makes sense. It almost seems like it’s not even worth the risk, most people are down overall if they bought in just within the last few months.
you could try it out as an experiment. but yes i agree the YM fan club is gonna learn how poorly a CC strategy does when the market rips causing you to buy back your CCs for a loss or get assigned for a loss, and then when the market goes back down below the basis your CCs were assigned at. I try and explain this to them but im met with a shit ton of retail traders who just wanna believe they can retire on 100k plus margin in ULTY, they dont wanna hear it
I expect to get assigned but the probability of someone exercising an April option now is very low. And as long as I collect a dividend twice, I’ll still be ahead. Almost everyone I see talking about ULTY is down and the dividends have pretty much put them back to even. Maybe it’s better to avoid.
I think you might have more luck with ULTY
more than likely to get assigned before the ex dividend date and won't get the dividend the whole point of holding ULTY
I like ULTY & MSTY even though I shouldnt lol I have small positions in both, like $1k that's all.
> ULTY TIL some people do not understand how dividends or total return work
Why are the ULTY guys having a meltdown?
Sold everything. Hopefully Trump works something out with Russia, but im not gambling on thr outcome. Still have ULTY since im breaking even only on that.
Yes, it's possible. I'm having to squeeze more than that out of even less right now. Be aware that stocks that get you those kinds of returns tend to be the ones that are at high risk of delisting. Don't gamble more than you have to. I use the screener at Option Samurai to look for options with the highest return. I have one saved screener set for 5 weeks, one for 8 days, and one that looks for the highest % returns regardless of expiration date. Just a heads-up: You could also put that same $30,000 into some high-yield dividend stock and ETFs and get the income you're looking for, with less work. There are some that pay a weekly dividend, like ULTY.
Possible, I mean ULTY, MSTY, NVYY all pay out 70%+ div on their option trades. You just got to stick to a consistent method and don’t change thats when you fuck up. You could pull $500 a week on $30k in ULTY, if you are set on playing with $30k in options, safer route than doing it yourself when your more likely to see a sure shot winning trade idea here on reddit and port your account.
Just buy ULTY and you let someone else do the work. Plus you’ll be making more than $250 a week.
You can do that holding 2,500 shares of ULTY (currently about $15,000)

Both options are good: with 2 I would do VOO & IXUS With 1 I am currently YOLOing ULTY
Got myself a ULTY w
**Oh noooooo** 4% drop it's the end of the world for ULTY!
Put all your gains into ULTY
Options have Saved me! I struggled for while earlier this year but then started following a strategy I learned from this guy: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvM\_u91zb3s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvM_u91zb3s) So not as worried about unemployment these days. But I also started to 'cheat' a little by using options strategy ETFs like ULTY, XBTY, NVYY. I'd suggest paper trading options in a paper account (Schwab) for some time before getting back to it though.
I mean using that much margin is risky already, but I did know a guy that put 50k into ULTY and is making roughly $800 a week from the dividends
Honestly with that amount of capital, just keep doing what you’re doing. Dividends are a waste of capital even if you put it into something like ULTY
I have 2 kids and I’m aggressive AF ULTY 50% paying for home repairs this summer and 50% buying other aggressive growth and income ETFs
I’d de-risk and put your winnings into the best 3 YieldMax covered call funds (ULTY, FBY, PLTY) and collect the cash dividends… maybe play a few options with that income stream… you can also defend your downside with a couple of puts if the market has a pull back…
Maybe try learning the wheel first with very small allocations. On paper the math checks out but you have to maintain a lot of assumptions. Dont rush it at the start. you could DCA into ULTY. Like maybe 1% of your portfolio or less a month. Also know how to hedge appropriately. A large -20% bear scare already happened, but what about a smaller -10% correction to make up for that V since April? Would be very healthy for the markets. Your expectations and biases can lead to bad decisions and over leveraged blow ups. All it takes is 1 bad play out of 9 good plays to lose too much
I’ve started buying ULTY with my win money to help keep it as well, let my gold make me some silver :)
Sooo you're saying put half my port in ULTY (100% return dividend ETF) and the other half in SH (Unleveraged inverse sp500 ETF) ?? 🤔
I think you can do it if options are involved, but also if you do not daytrade based on technical analysis. You can definitely beat the market just by efficiently wheeling good tickers. Or if you are going more risky why not just let a fund manager gamble your money for you and just buy something like ULTY which is already beating the market (so far)
Put it all into ULTY and use the dividends to pay it back over time (/s)
Also ULTY sticks out like a sore thumb in that list. Why on earth would a 25-year-old want to invest in a covered call ETF where you're limiting your upside for income generation? It makes no sense.
I am buying $30k of ULTY in my roth IRA monday morning. Cant go tits up
If you put it into ULTY it would pay just under $1500 a week.
What was the ULTY trade? How long did you have it? Thought people mainly bought ulty for divs
Just buy ULTY and collect weekly dividend
Just buy 20 delta puts... And sell 30 delta calls... And enjoy premiums... Only real important thing in wheel is stock selection... Pick a good stock with some volitiliy... I like GME...SOFI...BBAI... For smaller accounts... I have been loving my 5% monthly returns... But now I'm buying ULTY and let them trade for me also.
[https://weeklypayers.com/](https://weeklypayers.com/) $15K of ULTY will pull in about $1,000 in dividends per month. The 'new dividend investing' or 'income investing' uses options strategy ETFs for far better Returns than traditional dividend investing. Here's a nice substack on ULTY (the current king of options strategy ETFs): [https://theboldux.substack.com/](https://theboldux.substack.com/)
I guess you could sell 1 PUT on TSLL? But I'd probably just put it all in ULTY if I only had $1K [https://weeklypayers.com/](https://weeklypayers.com/)
If you blew your account on options maybe practice for a good while in a Schwab paper account. Choose good stock (or leveraged stock that tracks a good stock). Sell PUTs when it dips (at support), sell Calls on the rips (at resistance). There are also Options ETFs that pay out weekly dividends: [https://weeklypayers.com/](https://weeklypayers.com/) It might be easier to just invest in these currently (ULTY is kindof the king right now). I'm an options trader first, but some of these are just too beautiful for me not to own.
I make $500 / week with $30K of ULTY.
Palantir is one I won’t do. I found out ULTY ETF invested some into Pallantir and that alone made me sell it, at an 80 cent loss. Sure now I’m missing out on a weekly dividend, but idc. I will not invest in anything that involves them. From a financial investing standpoint, this was a horrible decision. From a moral standpoint, it was a great decision. … As I maintain some investments into Tesla and LMT. Either way, I don’t hate Elon as much as I do Peter Thiel.
Have you looked into yieldmax ETFs? I'm not recommending them persay but I do have a small position in my Roth in ULTY and it's dividend payout is 130%.
You did a great job explaining your thesis for each. I encourage you to take the next step and write out the option positions in detail, instead of posting a screenshot. That saves you the trouble of making a screenshot to link and saves readers the trouble of having to understand your platform and figure out what is relevant and not relevant in the screenshot. Don't write "option" when what you mean is a specific put or call. Option is used when you mean *either* put or call, without specifying. Like, "Options are derivatives and are inherently leveraged." Why did you choose spreads vs. a long put for ULTY and a leveraged short put for NVDA? Or why not just a long call on NVDA for maximum upside? You didn't connect the dots between your thesis and the *vitally important trade decisions of translating each thesis into a specific trade*.
I mean, ULTY has been fine for the couple months it was flat. But that requires timing when just SPY shares are probably much safer.
Is anyone else with ULTY/MSTY abandoning ship
Fyi, my setup Year-to-Date , made total $170K Next 12 months , dividend ETF [ QQQI (4000) , SPYI (4000) , ULTY (8000) ] , estimate to payout $80k
Condolences and good job trying to figure this out for your mom reponsibly. Besides other suggestion of VOO etc, maybe look into investing a portion in high dividend paying ETF like ULTY and set it on drip. Since she is retiring soon, this will give her a monthly income without selling assets. BUT, please do this only after doing good research on how these covered call ETFs work and the risks.
Sold my shares at 78 I’ll take the double … gonna buy ULTY with it
$16 million with the wheel strategy would be like 30-50% of the open interest of RIOT for example. Im a degenerate so I’d probably full send 1.75x account value into ULTY or something dumb like that. But even treasuries would give a decent return at that income level.
ULTY is supposed to pay out a stupidly high percent in dividends and reverse-splits to avoid going to 0 for like a net 8% CAGR or something
Finance a car at 8% or go on margin and have Robinhood charge me 5.75% and put it all in MSTY and ULTY and use the divs for the car payment?
Buy some CEPI and ULTY today if they hit my limit order.
ULTY & MSTY on margin 👍🏻
I sold my UNH, doc, and ULTY. Couldn't find anything good to invest in now. Ill be earning $31 a day in SPAXX I guess. Hopefully the market crashes hardcore this week
Sold half my PLTR a week ago to buy EOSE, RR, SNYR, and NVO. And bought some ULTY AND YMAX to reinvest the dividends into other stocks let's goo Holding asts rklb oklo lunr long term I have 31k for reference lol. Orginally Invested 18k. Over 50% gain profit atm but had losses previously smh SYM!
The Marlboro Man could retire on 100k in ULTY
There are people who think they can just put 100k into ULTY and retire on that LMAO🤌
ULTY is an income ETF. They reformulated their strategy in March to include some puts and hedges in the case of downward price movement in the market. That being said, that also limits the upside a little. This stock is and never will be a big mover as it’s value is tied to underlying NAV
But but but ULTY pays 100% dividend!
This doesn’t work on ETFs lol especially not ULTY
I’m fearful but my whole 410k is in ULTY. This feels about right. The average of both extremes is the middle.
If you believe in the SP that strongly, put all your money in ULTY and live off the weekly payments.
Idk how familiar u are with ULTY or yieldmax etfs in general but not something I would bet on shooting up
I started dipping into ULTY. It invests in some risky stocks but provides great call income/yield. If you still want to gamble a little I’d go with something like that if you don’t want to do it yourself.
