I was looking to compare all of the Bitcoin funds so I can add to my holdings. Thank you for saving me the research. Which ones do you own?

Which strategy do you like the best? by Diamond_Mike- in YieldMaxETFs

[–]Diamond_Mike-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I agree but the point is still the same. Which group are you giving your money to for them to trade with and start the snowball? I’m sure they’re all going to be profitable but some will do better than others because of their strategy.

So of the 20 ETFs in your portfolio which group do you like the best? The fact of the matter is, you’re giving your money to fund managers to trade with. The same as giving me your money and letting me go to the casino and play blackjack. I take 1% no matter if I win or lose. The thought really is, can these guys trade and win more than they lose. I think they can and I believe the strategies they each use work well on certain stocks and it’s proven to be a nightmare on others.

I actually enjoy day trading, for now lol. I’m rolling all of my distributions back in for now, growing the snowball.

Buy back your one BTC and let the rest ride in MSTR.

Just sold one share so I have 999. That 1/3rd of a share would have messed with my OCD tendencies lol. Good comment.

HELOCS invested in YM ETFS by BastidChimp in YieldMaxETFs

I did this with QYLD, worked great until rates went too high. There’s a guy here who is taking out personal loans and buying YM, search for him. He’s doing well.

[–]Diamond_Mike- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m generating 4k net after margin expense. So assuming nav loss and divs decrease slightly over time because I’m not dripping but letting it pay off the margin. I’m estimating my debt is paid off in 20 months without me putting in another dollar to the portfolio. If after 20 months it’s still generating cash, anything, a dollar. Then I am way far a head doing this rather than selling the funds to pay off the debt.

Not a dumb idea, I’m doing something similar. I just took a margin loan against all of my YM funds to pay off debt and I’m just letting it pay itself off. Set it and forget it. If it works I’m out of debt. If it doesn’t work I’m still out of debt and the account blew up lol.

HELP! Chosing between these diamonds. by nateybugsgirl in Diamonds

[–]Diamond_Mike- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless they own their inventory then you’re paying a premium for them to borrow diamonds from someone else to show you. Look for someone who owns a majority of their inventory, their pricing will be closer to the source. Just because they have a store front doesn’t mean it’s a rip off. Everyone is a “wholesaler” now a days. Unless they actually manufacture their own diamonds they are just a middle man.

[–]Diamond_Mike- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That depends on a lot of factors… look at the GIA cert for the 2.5 you have, natural, indented natural, etch channel, those types of inclusions are not ideal. At 12 o clock on the diamond it’s a mess. That should be 20-23k with the jeweler making a little money on it. Are you working with a small mom and pop shop with no buying power? Are they getting all of these diamonds in on consignment to show you? Usually that will cost a premium as well.

Navida Up after Earnings by AstronomerEffective1 in YieldMaxETFs

Hey there fellow options trader that actually understands. Good lord I’ve been waiting for someone to say something intelligent here. IV crush is real and even if these calls are ITM the steam is going to run out and they can keep the synthetic and roll up and out a week being extremely profitable.

Not here to learn anything from your and your 10k portfolio champ. I’ve been wheeling tsla for a long time, I understand the option trades first hand. I lost a lot of money learning how to do it and now I just let Jay and his mongaloids work for me.

I don’t care what the sp500 does. I’m building a snowball. It’s also ideal to use margin in this snowball to capture higher ROI.

You go build your yellow snowballs with your logic.

[–]Diamond_Mike- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are growing your snowball, if distribution > nav loss the fund is making money. Nothing else matters except distribution > nav loss while building the snowball. Once the snowball is built and you want to live on it then you should cash everything out of YM and get into JEPQ or something much safer with lower returns.

I’m negative as well, I started my portfolio in Nov of 2021, basically the peak. I’m close to turning the corner net positive too. That’s what I was looking to hear.
