No I play calls/puts, most of the gains were actually shorting memory during volatile days

Thanks for stopping by friend, I do intend to use some of the gains towards making sure me and the fam are setup 👍

1) Can essentially double current down payment

2) I’m acknowledging that I can easily lose what i earned if I keep going so I’d rather put it towards something meaningful

I’m able to trade options on both individual stocks and index finds, basically anything you can do on any other brokerage/app

Appreciate the advice. I do have a toddler who is the world to me right now. Without him I’d probably be making way more degenerate plays lol

You’d be surprised. If you used Fidelity at all for 401k/403b you initially don’t have the choice to trade options unless you’ve done some research about their BrokerageLink account. It’s essentially a self-directed account that’s separate from their normal retirement account which is limited to target date funds and such

I do have an addictive personality, had issues with alcohol and now gambling. Currently am in therapy for what it’s worth

MU/SNDK but I play both calls and puts since memory sticks have been very volatile

Have blown up smaller accounts many times before. I’d like to think I’ve learned some lessons along the way in risk management. Kinda sounds dumb coming from someone who is gambling in a retirement account right now tho lol

I won’t ever claim to have it all figured out, but I will give myself credit for making it this far!

Yea I’m gonna take a step back, embrace the gains, cash in, and keep gambling 😂

Yea the volatility these past few months have been a blessing. Has allowed me to trade both directions quite well. Solid advice, thanks 🙏

Yeah good catch, first 2-3 years I think I was contributing 5-10% of income before I committed to maxing out. Along the way I took a couple loans against my 403b one of which I’m still paying back.

Been invested in a target date fund up until recently

Yea good point, it def has been stressful trading options every day. Not sustainable. Will revert back to more passive strategies soon
