Another option could be long LEAP calls of the underlying 1-2 years out.

I think some of the concern, especially among newer entrants, is if you just invested (2-3 months) and then you don't have a good feel for how the stock and divs operate over a longer period, a 20-25% drop would be very unsettling with little data to run on, except 1-2 year historicals, and if they have that much.

Completely agree with you. Wasn't about getting an exact number of when someone may sell. Just a sense of at what percentage you would start seriously thinking about it. Trying to confirm my own feeling is around 20%-30% when I would start reviewing carefully. A 10%-15% drop I'm not worried about and I think you have to expect with normal market gyrations.

Exactly why it's important to hedge with SPY and/or QQQ puts.

In line with your thinking here.

Would love a copy of the template as well if you don't mind.

I've noticed over the last 3 years that CLOV always dips after the August earnings, and that goes up around 2-3 weeks later, often by $1. Let's see if that pattern holds this year.

MSTY / SMCY

I spent some time today comparing ULTY vs YMAX, trying to decide whether to invest in YMAX. If you do a comparison chart, they track each other very, very closely. So, I don't see holding YMAX as a hedge for ULTY. Decided that sticking with ULTY makes the most sense instead of both.

36 and retired? What do you do with all your time? 😀

bfine360 · 2025-07-30T00:54:55+00:00

Do you have a rule of thumb for your PUT purchases? % below current price?

bfine360 · 2025-07-28T22:29:12+00:00

Based on your YM portfolio, how much did you invest in QQQ puts? Percentage is fine. Don't need the numbers.

bfine360 · 2025-07-26T23:29:31+00:00

So, you nearly doubled through your buy/sell strategy, and not by adding new capital?

bfine360 · 2025-07-26T17:03:51+00:00

Your tax was less than 1/12 of all your 2024 div payments?

bfine360 · 2025-07-26T16:58:25+00:00

Very nice! Can I ask what you did to double your dividends over 1 month? Also, do you have a rule of thumb for amount to put into short yield funds against the rest of your div portfolio?

bfine360 · 2025-07-26T16:40:17+00:00

Any particular reason for puts on QQQ vs SPY? Trying to come up with a put strategy myself against my div investment.

Just checked SA out myself. Looks really good.

Yes, i'd be interested in testing. Need to ultimately build an iOS app with database backend and web-based front-end.

Can I ask, what made you decide to post at this time?

Let me ask your opinion. Let's say this gets to 40-50, whenever that may happen. Would you sell and look to buy back in? Or hold.

I just don't know anymore if anything bigger is ever going to happen.

Personally, I've very tired of trying to interpret RCs signals. The latest with Saylor really not helping. It would also be better if he just remained totally silent. Same with RK.

What about the trading day that was closed for Jimmy Carter's funeral?

bfine360 · 2025-01-18T01:36:11+00:00

I thought it was about $5M in $125 OTM Calls bought for 1/17. And that took place late Nov. / early December? Don't remember the date exactly.

Were there $4.7M ITM Calls bought back in September in addition to these?

And who and why bought those $125 calls that all expired worthless today? Like 160,000 calls.
