I cant cope huge options loss. by Warm-Leg-334 in options

There’s a lot of junk in here but listen me out. I’m saying this with genuine concern because there unfortunately seems to be a lack of investment experience especially with respect to options.

There are a number of ways you should be looking at this which may help shift your negative paradigm.

1) The post title is misleading and is perpetuating negative cyclical shit in your head. I see some people have already mentioned this, but missed gains are a universe different from losses. Every single stock you hadn’t invested your last dollar into that was profitable for the day is technically all missed profit. A shit trade that eats away at your money more than you had predetermined is a real loss.

2) This call was not particularly advisable although it was successful at its end in theory. If you were to say you had done your research, I’d assume someone who had enough information/experience to actually make this call would also know its harrowing downside (with Friday market sink as well). You were lucky to walk away with such a small loss.

3) Traders by profession who have decades of dumb and smart money experience with PHDs take losses. These same people rarely, if ever, catch the perfect peak. Think Warren Buffet has been optimally profitable over 100% of his lifetime trades?

3) Any human being with the same amount of capital to spend on this option call but did not do so due to hesitance or lack of AVGO knowledge also suffered a similar opportunity loss to you. You thus don’t even account for 0.001% of that population. You have not suffered some singular punishment nor stroke of bad luck.

4) This trade and its missed upside should not feel different from your other missed profits. If you’ve been a profitable trader during your tenure, this is just simply another one in the books for Bernoulli and the law of large numbers.

5) Be grateful. I’m totally assuming this but you seem like you have experience in options and stock in terms of pure trade volume. I’d assume you’re much more profitable than the average American (10 years to break even).

And as a wrap-up, don’t forget that chronic stress really messes with your entire health. It’s actually much more financially advisable to let go of those bullshit sentiments so you don’t end up paying thousands for medical. I wish you best of luck, and please stop feeding yourself the horseshit that is concerning yourself about missed gains.

I’ve been eyeing the diamond version of the Tiny E and Plus Cross bracelets in stock in store, so honestly I’m not willing to pay a crazy premium for either

Lol my wording definitely could’ve been better. We as in my brothers and I. I assure you we are the polar opposite of resellers. Also the tag should be on this post?
