Sorry if this was already mentioned, but did yall see those extremely high blips right after close? URA, XLE, XLI, PAVE, VHT are some of the efts where I saw them. What is that about? Did someone buy some really over priced shares? Manipulation?
Gold, XLE, idk something like that
forget about SPY calls. XLE calls is da wae
Waiting for a pullback on energy so I can load XLE calls. Also, gold calls. Shits breaking out with what's going on with bonds
Dang I shouldn't have given up on gold and XLE
CRAK and BWET ripping but my XLE is hardly moving. Complete fraud market.
That’s so funny because I bought October XLE calls, my favorite way to be a bear, and I’m up a lot right now, this week is looking hella good. Oil is literally the only way to make money if you like being a bear in this economy.
XLE is boring, but works.
I feel that, I had a call on XLE last week at 59.5 with a 8/21 expiration. I sold it for a small gain then obviously it's valued way higher now. Every time I sell it moves how I want, and when I buy it moves against me. Part of me wishes I had the capital to sell options instead https://preview.redd.it/jmpakozbwcjh1.jpeg?width=1264&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=df10b75cd4c461aa3289da1f21ee17bf140427c0
Keep an eye on XLE guys.. it looks angry. Just sayin
I’m about to punt XLE calls again and lose my ass..
XLE GLD blessed me, indici’s choppy LETS GOO
I’m all out of ideas in the near future. Jpm, Eaton, and copx have been my big winners with BR and intuit. ITA, SMH, and XLE are where I just put a bunch of money this week
alhamdullilah my XLE puts will print <3
I'm disappointed in myself for not buying XLE calls. But I had to spend my last cash on NBIS. Might sell some CRWD to buy the oil calls in this weird thing people do called ""taking profits""
@Mods to add to the Stocks Everyone should be paying attention to now due to this development; $USO $XLE and $WTI will be good ones to try and get in on the coming oil price moves
Speak for yourself I bought $USO, $XLE, and a ton of options for $WTI back in April and made sure to Dollar Cost Average all the way down through May-July because if there is 1 thing you can **BANK ON** its a Donald J Trump Business Deal ***Failure***
I don't buy calls or puts, but I do trade shares in individual tickers and XLE. It's possible to make a few percent here and there, just have to know how to catch the news right.
shorted XLE @ $60 yesterday before close
Every time I try to do options, I fuck this up and pay for it. When I swing trade, or position trade, I do ok (just slower). Today I was able to exit a lot of my $XLE because I hold actual shares, not calls. I hope I learn this lesson for good soon.
Fwiw calls on XLE were bought 3:1 over puts. Oil is a tricky bitch though. You really need to understand how OPEC works, and this war throws a wrench on top of that. Prices are not as fixed to supply and demand as it may seem. It's beyond my pay grade. All I know is alot of people lose alot of money trying to trade the shit lol. But, the call buying activity is a bullish signal
I just sold my XLE call for a solid 50% this morning, then watched it climb to about 200, if this stuff keeps going Im gonna reget my decision lol
I think Trump just gave the queue to short XLE. Going to do so and will report back
Not sure puts will always be the answer. I had to sell my $XLE (oil) shares today because oil dropped, so the stocks opposite oil will sometimes rise (hence calls vice puts), but it is 100% in Iran's best interest to screw with the system as much as they can heading into this election. You are right there.
Put that shit directly in my spy calls' veins. And then bomb the shit out of them for my XLE puts. Rinse and repeat.
These 60c XLE FOR 1/15/27 wasn’t a stupid idea after….
Only position I held over the weekend is XLE…closed my calls. ELECT A CLOWN EXPECT A CIRCUS 🤡 🤡🤡
Kinda glad I went long on XLE right now, why does OIL have a big dick now
no one thinks of XLE that is beta shit
USO so expensive just go for XLE
What are you talking about? SPX is within 3% of its ATHs and XLV, XLF, XLE, XLRE all hit ATHs on July 28. It’s just tech that is dropping. Almost every other sector is doing well.
XLV, XLE. This is not hard to look up.
REITs and healthcare. REITs AMT WELL O HEALTHCARE PFE MRK Made 300% on July calls for PFE. I used to work in the pension industry at a very large investment fund and I’m quite familiar with how they rebalance throughout the quarters. My personal theory is that there has been a rotation with options where companies are not placing long-term bets and are using options to target more specific exposures on shorter time frames like 1 to 3 months to stay within a quarter. Something like 80% of all QQQ options are less than one week of expiration right now. Each quarter end option expiration seems to be larger so I have noticed that these cycles of lower beta assets seem to rotate ahead of the rest of the crowd. Same with XLE energy. Take any of the sector ETF and look at the top 10 companies and all I’ve done is pick one or two of them that seemed to have options volume or and cyclical volatility on the 1H and 1D charts. Just like anything in life such as a sports team or your own dog if you intimately track it and observe its patterns and moves every single day you’ll probably pick up some tendencies and repeated patterns. REITs don’t have a premarket or post market generally so that itself is divergence from the norm and has game theory components. Are stocks with less volume and less market hours still traded the same algorithmically? You’ll have to find out.
CRAK is a good etf option. XLE remains undervalued and if you're really bullish go for GUSH. Just be careful for volatility. As for individual stocks, a lot of Canadian companies are hilariously cheap (CNQ, SU, CVE) all of which aren't just producers but do refining too, which is where the real margins are right now and have been for months
I've been playing that same move between Delta Airlines and $XLE.
XLE energy etf is up an entire percent in the last three hours. That's the highest green on my sector watchlist

XLE has taken a dip but aren't we anticipating that oil producer/processor earnings are going to be good the next two weeks? Or am I reading that wrong?
XLE is a buy right now, its gonna soar from earnings over the next 2 weeks and was on sale today
It's annoying how easy it would be to swing trade XLE if I could tolerate the stress
XLE puts were so obvious on Friday
Sounding better and better for my XLE calls
I've still held some XLE Aug 7th $61 calls over the weekend. I really think even if news causes selloff Monday, with how low the strategic oil reserves are getting there's no way these low oil prices can remain for much longer no matter what happens in the middle east
My tip is nobody can predict the market. It is not "pretty much gambling." It is gambling. Look at 7/24 SPY. Lot of people bought call just to watch it cratered from 743 to 738 eod. Pre market, a massive dump on semi occured. Yet at opening, SPY went up. Sure somebody can say money was rotated and added into other sectors because XLE and XLR, financial, and others went green. But really can you 100% confirm that? But surely it can narrowly explain the spike a bit but not 100%. Then boom, how do you explain the crash at mid day? Someone could say "well it didn't crash at opening although semi tanked premarket, I don't think it will tank today at all?" It did.
I shorted xle this weekend on a whim, cheap puts exp August 21st, maybe good news out of the Middle East, XLE seems like it can’t break $60-$61
Large XLE puts means we're getting a new peace deal over the weekend
Been watching Brent alongside XLE and a couple of individual energy names on moomoo. Crude moved hard this week but energy equities haven't followed proportionally. There's usually a lag of a session or two. But if that gap keeps widening instead of closing, it probably means the market doesn't fully believe this move translates into sustained earnings improvement. Worth watching closely.
Was a great opportunity to pick up XLE calls
whats the current fav theme? XLE?
Gamblers would you sell XLE after they presumably smash earnings eom

I'm using gold where I used to use bonds. I've done a zillion correlation analyses. Gold is very interesting because it is not correlated with anything else, except other precious metals like silver. So 5% to 15% gold is a decent portfolio diversification. Gold has recently come down in price, to about $4,000/oz, which is a decent entry point. The people following gold, doing technical analysis charts, think it's possible that gold could go down to mid $3,000s as the very bottom, but in the upcoming years should do nicely. Gold's historical returns for the past 30 years are about equal to the S&P500. I use the IAU ETF which tracks with gold, minus a 0.25 expense ratio. As a hedge against AI, I'm using the software sector IGV ETF. This sector is oppositely correlated with the AI trade. It's been hammered down a lot, but the companies are actually doing just fine and look very attractive. Energy sector (oil & gas), e.g. XLE ETF is good to have with these oil prices. And the refining prices too, which most are not hearing about, but the "crack spread" (difference in price between refined product & crude oil) are at all time highs. This is a cyclical industry, I wouldn't hold it forever. Maybe for a year? I'll have to play it by ear.
Holding XLE call options at 53 strike and 8/17 expiration through what I assume will be the continued oil bounce.
XLE up 3% in a day is pretty crazy. Should have grabbed calls when the strait closed officially for the tenth time.
I've been holding 10 XLE 75 Aug calls since May... how cooked am I
The only thing up right now on my screen is \*checks notes\* XLE.
Watch out guys, stegosaurus pattern on the XLE
omg I actually timed entering and exiting XLE right for once and made like $5 🥹
XLE 4h chart looks incredible really
I’ve got 7/17 XLE $62C coming back from the dead. Was down $6k for a while.. But the rest of my portfolio is on fire. I keep pressing the power On/Off but nothings working.
i have calls on XLE does this mean i win? please explain in a monosyllable answer that does not have the letters "n" or "o", thank you
When everything else is down, XLE is up. And vice versa.
GUT has 9% yield, XLE has a 2.68 yield. Switching form GUT to XLE is very bad for an 80 year old that needs income. Yes XLE has growth but that will not do any good for an 80 year old.
I played the SQQQ game a while back and lost a bunch of money. Being long instead of short always wins over a longer timeframe. DRAM (memory stocks) and SMH (semiconductors) are the hotness, so just buying a little each week has a higher chance of paying off. Then for hedges, XLU is utilities, boring boomer stuff but it often has green days when the market is red. There's also XLP and XLE. Another good hedge is non-US ETFs like VEA, which is a big basket of European and Asian stocks Just something to think about
He didn't buy oil, he bought the energy sector ETF XLE. it went from $20/share roughly in early 2020 (when oil went negative) to about $55 today. It does also pay a dividend of about 3%. The other position he mentioned, VGENX is up maybe 10% since 2020 and also yields around 3%
I bought so much XLE and VGENX that day I literally had like 6k left to my name. I'm never actually paying for gas again from that day... Except now I can't sell because the dividends are too tasty and actually pay for everything 😂
USO? XLE? I've watched all my pre war names spike up and fall back down lol. I've decided to keep holding, but I haven't added to any yet.
I wish I had 10m so I could buy the XLE dip forever and ever
Its A bRoaDmaRkeT CrAsH! /s XLC is up XLP is up XLF is up XLE is up XLV is up XLRE is up
XLE is green, I recommend buying profitable companies
Personally I wouldn't have 8% in XLE but that's just me, it's not ridiculously overweight or anything. I mean that is an extremely conservative portolio except for XLE, but if you project that it will give you the cashflow you need, then there's nothing wrong with it.
I will definitely keep the XLE i bought as a hedge. Though it's now down 5% from when i bought. I don't trust this at all.
I’m holding my XLE calls… tempted to sell, but it’s made of good companies. Maybe will sell and still buy shares of the companies
XLE, XLP, short EURUSD, long/short strategies, short the market with long DTE options while long with shorter DTE, etc
Defensive stocks still fall, but may not fall as hard. SCHD is a broad fund that has a greater concentration of defensive sectors than most. XLU, XLV, XLP, XLE. Some of those are still above their 1yr SMAs….you can let the exuberance catch first, as people rotate out of them when they get cocky. Gold, I would not pick now. Corporate bonds suck. Long-term gov’t bonds suck. SGOV is the ultimate hedge, as it does not correlate, but it may not beat inflation. CTA does managed futures in commodities. Time in the market beats timing the market. I’m holding onto my Qs.
I have some XLE calls, thinking of selling at open and replacing with more DRAM haha
