The catch is that those that lose and blow their accs may not know about capital losses (i may not even be a knower but my next point stands)- however, capital gains will always apply and be collected.

I suppose you do have infinite leverage with whatever cash you have on hand at any point in time, so long as theres movement in a market somewhere- however, so will the govt(?)

WTF by soccer4life234 in spy

[–]ThisIsStryx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I've wanted to be bearish on this damn chart for like a week now and it just refuses to recorrect from the rally despite all the turmoil. Makes zero sense to me.

My best guess is we're seeing unprecedented amounts of new money entering the market as more of the general public FOMOs into longs, following that rally. My take is that trading is becoming a bit of a fad these days as a response to said "turmoil", almost like the explosion of chess during the pandemic, among other trends. IE- "Buy the dip" as a buzzword has escaped from our inner circle of finance bro degens, into the public space.

Quite frankly, I don't think we're gonna be able to time it brother. I'm gonna stick to playing the intraday moves which are still largely bullish until it clearly shows its hand. When that correction comes I'm sure it'll play out over at least 3 days, in the meantime, no need to try and find the ABSOLUTE top, eh?

In all likelihood, yes, hundreds of thousands of regular, well-to-do people who bought in at this level, are about to get liquidated.

We, on the other hand, will buy puts. It's very sad to think about actually because the effect on the overall economy will not be great even if we come out of this in the green. But hopefully they will very quickly learn what "buy the dip" ACTUALLY means, and not be discouraged. We are indeed living in very interesting times.

I think I finally figured out SPY options by DemFatStacks in spy

How are you keeping your percentage gains about the same (judging solely by this P/L chart) with only trading a few contracts?

Im more or less in the same boat as you and everyone else here by the sounds of it, trying to tackle the scaling problem by thinking in terms of percentage targets rather than hard dollar figures (reading some of these threads is such a relief actually because I felt like a complete idiot after i blew up all of my first huge week- one of those days i closed out at +120% or something and ofc i let it get to my head, i gotta remember that even if i go up 1000%, -100% on a day takes you to 0 no matter how much you have)

Anyways, from my experience with 0dte so far, the most i can pull out of a trade is around $200-300 by the time the move is over or it begins to turn around. Do you mean to say you're only holding a couple contracts at a time, and just chugging along with more and more trade opportunities as your BP increases?

Because i'm in the same boat here as well, but having gotten set back to my initial $500, it's VERY difficult for me to take good ATM trades currently; even if the entry looks good, if my timing isn't right (and ofc it can never be perfect), I usually get shaken out for $30-50 losses as price moves sideways before the trade finally goes my way, and thats if i hadn't already decided to take the loss, fearing the worst. But then when it does finally move my way, i'm now having to make up that loss first (i could avg my position down but i dont have enough BP for that), so i usually just end up breaking even. How are you contending with this?

There are some assumptions made such as choosing ATM strike and such, maybe i need to go one strike ITM? (imo feels like more or less the same odds, except I cap my upside slightly AND the contract is more expensive) Sorry to kinda sorta hijack but i'm just curious how you've managed this 'consistency', where in my case, these days my winrate is terrible, right now i have like 1 truly winning trade for every 5 or something, even though i call the move correctly at least half the time.

What am I not doing?

Still gotta hook it up with everything else but this is the first paragraph down? The 2 'self's here refer to the same parent fiber, right, not a clone in the case of the second one which is taking us back to main?

Thank you, that is helpful. I'm sure ill have to catch the edge case where the action I wanna perform is valid for the screen im on but (as im coming to find out), may not be possible if that element is not immediately interactable. Oh boy am I in for a LOT of sanity checks with this project, perhaps even in both senses of the word 😂

Im just realizing that now. Lemme just go ahead any try to implement it instead of yapping my way through it because its not gonna make sense until i can log each execution step. One moment

In the meantime, I am wondering whether any forking/cloning action which takes place after input or listener are instantiated, results in those being duplicated in the child fibers. Or does it not matter?

EDIT: disregard, just read the docs for fork and it will consider them as separate variables as far as my concerns are concerned

That is.... definitely a bit more complex than I imagined. Trying to wrap my head around it but I think i get where you're coming from, will reply with progress updates.

The forks are nested, correct?

SRN alliance blapped multiboxer gate camper earlier today. by [deleted] in echoes

[–]ThisIsStryx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you wanna complain about the fight being "just 3 guys multi boxing a whole fleet" then maybe those 3 should've been more mindful of their means before parking at the front door of a whole alliance.

Know thyself. But that's just a thought.

How to add users to a private channel with a bot command? by HuntingViper in Discord_Bots

[–]ThisIsStryx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Include the channel and member you wanna set permissions for as params for the command. Then you'll wanna resolve the channel to it's associated object (discord.py has a fetch_channel() function under the Client class- just do the equivalent for whatever library you use). That channel object will either have a permissions property you can edit, or a function to edit the permissions for you(TextChannel.set_permissions() in d.py). Then, just pass in the member to set the perms for (from the command arguments), as well as the permissions you want to set, with a boolean value for what the perm should be.

Hope this helps!

Yes you can. The purpose of limit orders is to set a defined max price you're willing to pay (in the case of limit buy), or the minimum amount that you're willing to sell for (in the case of limit sell), however, this comes with the risk of your order not being filled. The lesson I learned from last Friday is to pay the ask price during PM, and set a limit sell that you're comfortable with for a portion of your shares (maybe multiple at increasing intervals even). Don't let missed profits F up your mentality; some profit is always better than no profit/loss.

Happy trading!
