So i have this friend who thinks he has a new and winning strategy....
I took a year off trading and decided to get in again and start small so I don’t blow my load all at once. All of this of this has been swing trading SPXS, SQQQ, TBT and UVXY. Now I’m long in LEAPs with my profits.
What exactly am I buying into if I buy something like UVXY?
Buy UVXY, wait for bottom in '28, scoop up cheap [insert currently booming industry] stocks, profit... This even predicted a c19 crash?

For everyone who said “I should have bought volatility when UVXY was $8.75 - You’re welcome!
That VIX launch that occurred yesterday in the midst of a green market is a specific pattern that has foretold of major volatility increase and an imminent SPY drop in each previous occurrence. (7 for 7.)
What a week to be a gay bear. +27k gain on ABNB/SPY Puts and UVXY calls (+295%)
UVXY , holding strong until Jerome pivots us into a societal collapse 🥲💎🙌
Spy is at the top of a trendline. While UVXY is at the bottom of a trendline. If it bounces spy will bleed all week.
UVXY is at the bottom of a trendline. If it bounces here could mean a bloody week for spy.

Are my 11/28 SQQQ2/UVXY1 calls cooked still or could dump at open save them?
To all the folks that think i gamble my parents money LOL i held Gold to the top and took a 10% haircut there I got squeezed on the $PZZA buy out fake rumors and Apollo's nonsense Oh & also probably spent $100k holding UVXY and $30k on the Blue Jays ML for Game 6
If we all buy calls on SPY and UVXY What happens then?
Man am I sure glad I forgot about my 100 shares of UVXY until now
UVXY 5 day chart looks like this for some reason.
I do genuinely believe today was at least partially because of the SQQQ/TQQQ/UVXY splitting/resetting
* Leveraged ETFs (like TQQQ, UVXY, etc.) split at today’s U.S. open. * Bots relying on old price history or not coded for splits freaked out, even more so given the London/Frankfurt power hour overlap. * Algorithmic stupidity led to outsized price dumps and confusion, resolving only once the machines were re-calibrated. * Lesson: Always code for splits or get ready to eat crow (or bangers, or brats).
#TLDR --- Ticker: SPY Direction: Up The Gist: Leveraged index splits (TQQQ, UVXY) confused the European trading bots, causing a temporary dip. Once the algos recalibrate, we go up. Prognosis: My anus is tangled.
Whats a good buy - shares - if you think the markets are going down? No options or shorting. UVXY?
Since my UVXY calls spiked 400% after I sold them I have deemed that I must be flagged as some kind of volatile "little hedge fund." Is there a way to turn this fund into an ETF that I could sell for other investors to inverse and make premiums on it for myself somehow?
I only cry in the casino when its blatantly cheating. Aka the FIGMA IPO allocation where they took all my money and ended up issuing only one share then pump and dumped it. Or the FRC bank going tits up after JPM propped them up to give retail hope and then summarily illegally bought them after becoming bankrupt and left long term outside investors perma bag holding. Or the most recent pump of UVXY after my leaps expired. There's a laundry list of scammy shit that happens in finance and retail is the first ones to get boned and theres nothing we can do about it. So i reiterate my earlier position- gold, guns and crypto.
UVXY shot up 400% THE DAY after I sold my callS, which was the day before THEY expired, been holding for 2 months. Fucccckkkk I- HATE- YOU- WALL- STREET- FUCK- YOU- CHIMPS AND YOUR- TERRORIST- TOWEL HEAD MAYOR

You dont see the blatant manipulation here? VIX has been steadily climbing but UVXY hasn't and as soon as my calls are about to expire it magically pumps 400%+??? This isnt about balls. this is about being retail and being fucked because I cant do anything about it. Gold, guns and crypto are my new investment strategy, Fuck you guys.

UVXY and HOOD bunch of fucking crooks
Like take UVXY, the market has been in turmoil for a while and I didnt see any moves on UVXY though I held long dated calls. Two days before they expire I finally sell cause im close to being ITM and as soon as I sell UVXY jumps up from 11 to 60 though VIX has been steadily rising this whole time... Tell me how that is not a scam?
That 11 to 60 jump on UVXY after I sold my calls 2 days before its expiration is fucking diabolical. Up there with that FIG scam they pulled on me. Hood is such trash. And I imagine the others arent any better. Rotating into crypto, gold and guns. F-U MM
It was under 20, then BAM. UVXY looks funny today. 🤣
So your telling me the day after I sell my UVXY call, it jumps from 11 to 60??? Fuuuuucckkk youuuuu
reverse splitting UVXY so that it's now trading at $60/share is what you do when you want to keep negligently driving up the price of equities. beware of the level of put harvesting that occurred 23'-24', it could easily resurge
UVXY is absolutely ripping today
Yup. Sad story. Seems like no one really knew about this until this morning. At least I did not. SQQQ, TQQQ, UVXY all got consolidated and options liquidity got messed up because no one will be willing to buy contracts for the pre-consolidated format
Not able to buy calls on UVXY today hmmm 🤔
What happened with the UVXY ETF?
I'm fucking ruined, im the only person in the fucking world with UVXY1 options arent i
Does anyone else have UVXY1 now?
Does anyone else have UVXY1 options now??
Does anyone else have UVXY1 options? they arent moving at all what the fuck is this
why are my long-dated UVXY options showing worthless after it split? is it really worthless just because it split? i know i'm fucked anyway but appreciate advice
i know I am fucked for having options on UVXY, but is it really expiring worthless now just because it split? someone help
UVXY with another reverse split, making the IPO price $606,750,000,000 a share in 2011.
All my UVXY and SQQQ options are gone because of consolidation and low liquidity. Wtf should I do now?
UVXY what will happen to my calls?
Oh and puts on UVXY - down we go!
can someone tell wtf happened to UVXY
Now since UVXY is reverse split is it a good time to buy puts on that
UVXY has dropped off the face of robinhood for me. anyone else check and confirm for them too
Any idea why both SQQQ and UVXY were suspended after market close?
UVXY odds on printing tomorrow?
UVXY holds futures, right? Derivatives (call options) on a derivative (futures) on a derivative (VIX) on derivatives (underlying SPX .... options). What a world.
VOXL CFD and UVXY call options.🙂
I’ve lost a bunch of money on UVXY. Never again.
Any millionaires out there want to start a Youtube series where you give me $1,000,000 and see how long I can survive? :thomas\_the\_tank\_engine.jpeg: Jokes aside, got a couple thousand in cash after selling some UVXY and SQQQ yesterday. Just waiting for... something?
It’s just an option’s contract, calls and puts. There is a VX1 and VX2 and both are the 1 month and 2 month front dated VIX contracts that roll over. There is also volatility ETFs in UVIX, UVXY and VIXY that are different dated versions of VX1. you can be long and short volatility, just like a stock.
Someone on that sub just asked whether or not it’s a good idea to DCA into UVXY.
Afraid to look at the damage in my port. But this might be the last chance for me to dump this UVXY call before santa rally or we think more pain?
Wow. Sold SQQQ and UVXY at a profit and bought TQQQ at the low today. Is this what winning kind of feels like?
UVXY barely moving up, hmmmm.
My UVXY is locked in to sell at 12.5 a piece. Profit is profit and I have been hoarding enough for far too long.
I wouldnt mind 655 today. If it happens, I sell my UVXY.
Looks like my UVXY calls are gonna print before expiring after all.
UVXY LEAPS are still expensive. Need to go over $15 on a lot of them to be in the money. That would be a 40-50% increase from here. Market is expensive if you are bullish and the same is true if you are bearish. Sideways trading until Fed cuts rates/we die?
I have QQQ calls and UVXY calls. I am immune to profit OR loss.
Somebody check UVXY OR VOLATILITY RN
UVXY is under valued this morning
I remember someone saying they were going long UVXY earlier this week. Bet that worked out pretty well…
This ITM option on UVXY has no bid: [https://imgur.com/a/11E6SkT](https://imgur.com/a/11E6SkT)
I probably should've held those UVXY calls until tomorrow
Most of you thought UVXY was a college and it shows.
Buying some UVXY calls. Hit single digits.
UVXY decay can burn you but played well can help gain in times of stress. I'll look into VIX calls.
Valid point but was the return the same for same amount spent such as fees paid to keep their position vs cost of having shorted the banks either the highest risk. What I find odd being quite a few small banks and investors went to zero therefore perhaps shorting them the most return but fact is I understand what they did in general yet not familiar with the actual mechanics including carrying costs of shorting stocks. My approach is UVXY which has worked for me and easier for me to enter and exit
Do you usually just play on index? If I want to trade on volatility swings, what's generally the best strategy? I can describe my thesis plainly: I believe the tech market is going to swing very dramatically over the next three weeks, flatline week of thanksgiving, and start swinging wildly again up to xmas. I'm doing straddles (options on SPY for those days the market rallies and spreads in 1,2,3 week exp on VIX being my primary play). I'm not brave enough to do 0dte plays yet as I'm still learning fundamentals, but I am doing weekly straddles and working my way to shorter plays. What are the best instruments/tickers for this? I'm up 50% week-over-week in actual cash for 3 weeks straight with good psychology (take principal back out, take some profit, invest and learn with the rest). I started doing some paper trades on UVXY and that's going alright, but just wondering what other tips you might have. I'd welcome a DM too. I work from home in tech and love a good coffee-o-clock at market open with friends and other traders to learn from. Cheers and congrats on your success!
Just buy way out of the money calls on some shit stock. It’s not that hard. Actually I thought about this the best option is to buy deep OTM UVXY calls. They usually have pretty good liquidity even like 400% out of the money depending on the expiry date. But that will ensure like a 99% chance you lose all the money. If you end up making money on the position then that means there was a massive market crash. In which case you shouldn’t have a problem loss harvesting.
Sold my calls and UVXY puts way too early. RIP 300+%, hello 25%.
I think I found a loophole/silver longing for myself…. I’m restricted from opening positions due to PDT but have some UVXY calls expiring and some cash…. I think I’m gonna let them get assigned.
I hope you are right. I loaded up on UVXY
No one responsed to my craigslist ad, sell my TSLZ, SOXS and UVXY calls or hold longer? They're dated pretty far out- so if this things got more of a bottom, guess I'll hold.
I have a couple SOXS calls and UVXY calls. And some TSLZ shares that have probably mooned. Should I sell at open or is this thing going to dump harder?
UVXY is the only real descent vix option and still fucks you. Was up 7-8% today and my mid November calls only 1.5x… on an regular stock index w have been 20x and even a stock 4x. I get the dynamics. I understand vix can never go to zero but 1x on 8% is bullshit.
I have CALLs, but they're in UVXY and TLT.
That was my thought. Keep 20 percent in something that does opposite of the market. For instance I was in UVXY during the tariff week and while others got killed my account stayed even a d actually went up This allowed me to swing trade the UVXY and dump the profits into spy and qqq etc. so I would like something that can act this way to even out the UPS and downs of corrections and allow me to profit. Uvxy would be the perfect vehicle for this if not for the decay
There's no free hedge. They all come with some sort of cost. With UVXY, it's the decay from the futures being relatively overpriced compared to the expected VIX (plus huge internal trading costs and fees). With VIX options, the options are priced based on the futures, so again, they are overpriced compared to the expected VIX by expiration.
UVXY, BITI, and WEN are today's triple delight
So I'm still learning, but last summer I bought UVXY as a hedge for market loss. It worked well with all the uncertainty and especially well with the liberation day stuff where I was buying options on UVXY. So I thought I had it all figured out. Buy UVXY and hold to be insulated from downturns. However I didn't understand the reset so there was a flaw in my thinking and my money dwindled while the index stayed flat. Is there any other way to do this hedge and own the VIX or something like it without the decay that comes with UVXY? I looked at options on $vix but they have a lot of premium built in even on deep ITM leaps
He’s about 6 months early, the key is to wait till senators and other insiders start making huge buys into puts and UVXY calls. Unusualwhales op
I thought they fixed this years ago when someone took on 60:1 leverage with UVXY box spreads or something like that lol
Every single thing i hold was inversed. Kind of wild. Like even my volatility plays like UVXY calls didnt budge today. Its all because the juice big mad
Waiting on my $UVXY alarm to hit >70 RSI then going heavy on 25 delta calls ≈21 days out.
I been holding UVXY so long I should receive a dividend
Buying UVXY is like watching the Khardashians and expecting something smart to happen
