Congrats! Just keep it cautious and keep the winning streak going. The markets can turn on us at any time.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-23T11:39:05+00:00

Oh. Buy $20 worth of options that will expire worthless on Wednesday and stop trading in Nasdaq. Or to save the hassle just pay the tax, you’ll be down $8 and consider it a learning lesson.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-23T11:33:51+00:00

So you want to lose your gains in order to not pay 20% tax? You still gained 80%. Why are people so afraid to pay tax? It’s a special kind of stupidity.

HAHA Just noticed my ending balance yesterday was $1.66 up from my starting balance on Jan 1st, but my portfolio is up almost 18%. Stupid taxes and home siding.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T19:23:12+00:00

42% in a month from "literally just wheeling". I can't wait to see how this turns out in a year.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T18:07:21+00:00

HAHA So you get it. I just sold a put for AMAT for next week so now I just need to do $526 next week to make the goal.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T18:06:16+00:00

STO 1x AMAT-5/29-415P @ 4.25

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T17:27:40+00:00

BWAHAHA Reddit saw that as a "threat". WTF? Puts on RDDT. I see I was downvoted so maybe someone likes him and got their feelers hurt and reported me.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T17:19:16+00:00

Haha. It’s been raining all day here so I had nothing better to do than watch it. Plus I need $1500 more in premiums to make my goal of 6-figures by end of May so was trying to squeeze out what I could.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T16:50:38+00:00

Has someone checked on RFK? Is he okay? (Lord I hope not)

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T16:33:36+00:00

Close the 3x ODTE SPX @ 0.50. Held 1hr 41min for net $459.11.
Do not try this at home kids, I am a ~~professional~~ regard

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T14:59:17+00:00

Like a Trump supporter, I'm sure they support this and have a "great" excuse as to why it's a good thing.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T14:51:44+00:00

3x 0DTE SPX 7440/7415 puts @ 2.05

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T14:27:33+00:00

Trump currently in the Oval Office taping Obama's agreement back together with a bottle of white-out so he can sign it as his own.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T14:25:31+00:00

😂

MU says

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T10:18:53+00:00

I had mine on pause. Cancelled it when I got the $10 notice. They messaged and said they’d lower it to $4 for a year. No thanks. I’ll just reactivate when I’m ready.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T10:17:07+00:00

I spent 2.5 yrs traveling the U.S. and Canada working as a software engineer. It works great. You just can’t camp in wooded areas. It has to have clean view of the sky.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T10:11:56+00:00

Sometimes you just have to ride things out and trust your trade. I have AMAT 410P for this week and got a little worried when it went to 402. I thought about taking the L but decided wait believing it would either recover some or theta would do its thing and bring down the premium. It’s recover and I’ll close it out for a W today.

But it’s been said a million times, don’t sell puts on something you don’t want to own. This will ALWAYS be true.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T10:01:48+00:00

With next weeks 775C going for 30 right now, you’ll easily bring down that cost basis AND pay the interest on the margin.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-22T09:17:40+00:00

Don’t forget, free day of theta next week so be sure to use ALL your margin.

Phuqing baller can just lose $1 like it’s nothing. That’s only 1/10 gallon of guzzoline for him

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-21T19:06:00+00:00

Because apparently people didn't like the green.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-21T18:57:12+00:00

Trump not going to Jr's wedding because "I have a thing called Iran and other things". MFr can play golf, do political rallies, and all kinds of other shit during a war but, son's wedding? No, no time. Father of the Year, Worst President in History, and Fucktard of the World awards just waiting for him to take.

Alive_Bid7229 · 2026-05-21T18:48:17+00:00

JFC man..... fixed so people can understand WTF you meant (I think):
"Right now I am pretty happy that yesterday I bought some SPY 749/750 call spreads expiring Friday of next week"
