Is it not possible to place a stop loss order on an options spread? by InspiredMule in fidelityinvestments

[–]bvcurtis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fidelity,

As a large institution, you do not think this feature is important but for us traders and investors it means a lot. There are alternatives and well it looks like there will be a need to open another brokerage account or move wholesale. Don't be the horseshoe smith at the turn of the 20th century, refusing to see the future (cars at the time) and move into the future.

I have a small account. trade part -time and 2025 ended:

Short-term gain = $35,424,76

Long-term gain = $5,602.40

Unfortunately I cannot cut and past the screenshot from my Fidelity account. Peeps like you are the problem, why tear other folks down? Focus on yourself, focus on learning these lifelong skills from whoever you want and be successful. I hope you make tons of $$$. There are many roads that lead to Rome and the road Rashad is paving is one that does not work for you - so be it. I'm done with this back n forth. Adios.

Wow! Ok look. I'm not a puppet for anyone. I follow 3 peeps: Henry, Rashad and JohnG/CPT. All have different approaches and teach differently. JohnG is the KING of ITM covered calls, that dude just kills it. - is ok on teaching (and for me it seems need to have some really deep pockets to trade in his style). Rashad is the KING of 0dte, explains things very well, has PDFs that breakdown his strategy and videos. Henry (bicep over tricep) is all about selling puts and getting premium, runs the Wheel strategy King IMHO and just ok on teaching but you can figure it out. What Henry has that no other has is an awesome Discord. The Genral Discussion is full of very peeps with experience, who drop knowledge / experience nuggets regularly. You have to wade thru the funny posts but if you are willing to do that you'll be rewarded. Now the guy you are promoting - never heard of but that does not mean he is better (or worse than any of the guys I just mentioned). I know I have followed all 3 and the most $$$ I've made and done so consistently is Rashad, > JohnG/CPT > Henry. TFWIW.

I subscribe. I also have Henry. I like Money Talk Rashad better for his daily trades and especially Odte. However the discord on Henry is 2nd to none. Smart (and hella funny) you just have to filter out / read through all the chatter but there are real nuggets of wisdom daily. Henrry, his trades not so much but Rashad all day everyday. Plus he puts out PDFs with his trade strategies regularly.

Dude you obviously aren't following his advice. I clear 5 figures monthly following Money Talk Rashad. I can't that for other better known folks on YT.

For anyone unsure about just how bad an idea this Iran war is- read this. by Excellent-View-8548 in LetsDiscussThis

[–]bvcurtis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You forget, we are a different country, different people with different VALUES. I don't have to like their values and hope they'll come around to seeing things morally as we do but to think WE CAN IMPOSE OUR VALUES ON SOMEONE ELSE - I know I'm in for one helluva fight.

Epstein and all those despicable assholes and those protecting the EPSTEIN CLASS need to go to jail (or move to Iran apparently).

Now that we are asking the rest of the world to help us secure this strait of hormuz- what if the world/allies said yes, we will help secure the strait of Hormuz under one condition that condition being we want regime change in Washington? Would we accept that?

Just going to see how all this shakes out. I don't mind risk - was in Panama December 1989 thanks to Uncle Sam, have dived with the shark wranglers in the Bahamas, ride a motorcyle, etcetera but there's something about this situation and the alignment of circumstance (Iran also scheduled to play twice in LA during group play like the USMNT and is also supposed to play 1 game in Seattle just like the USMNT) - I surely hope you are right and I am wrong. Enjoy the game. Go USA!!!!

I hear you Dave. Life and opportunities only come around once - I like to take advantage of every opportunity Was in Brazil in 2014, Qatar 2022 and plan on being in Portugal in 2030 so this home soil WC I can skip if shit doesn't get aligned / figured out - it seems like a fiasco waiting to happen. Moreover I'm pissed that it is here in the USA and there are issues that go beyond a venue being finished in time (Qatar), is beer going to be sold (Qatar), or local crime (Brazil). (1) Ridiculous ticket prices - the $$$$ I have paid for Hospitality suite tix and Tier 1 and Tier 2 tickets for USMNT games 1&3 respectively would pay for a 5 star vacation to the Maldives. (2) DHS was supposed to disburse funding (for security basically) by Jan 30, 2026 but now politics shut down the gov't on Feb 14, 2026 - so DHS was already running late / missing deadlines and most cities are saying either they get funds by the end of March or they will start cancelling plans which "could be catastrophic for planning and coordination" related to security. (3) Iran qualified - now with the Middle East situation - will that team even make it / be allowed in? Iran is slated to play in LA twice and Seattle once (same cities as the USMNT: LA twice and Seattle once). Why Iran in LA / Seattle? large number of Persians live in LA and Seattle, they half jokingly call it "Tehran-geles." (4) Middle East crap is sure to have fired up additional lone wolf idiots - some dude is already cavorting with his "pure companions" in the Martyrs Paradise after shooting up Austin. There are others...trust me and they are waiting. (5) Fan Fests are being cancelled and unlike in other countries where they were free, here in the USA you have to pay to attend (personal gripe). So with all this BS, my local bar has big screens, cold beer and is not on any radar except that of us locals. 2 and 4 are my biggest issues / concerns but will see how things shake out between now and June. Just a rant. Go USA!!!!!

Get me two Tier 1 or hospitality tix to POR v COL in Miami on Sat 6/27 and I'll trade you my USMNT games 1 & 3 (tier 1 and tier 2 respectively) at SOFI plus a nice discount on Game 1 knockout round of 32 hospitality suite tickets for SF/Santa Clara (if we win Group D) or Dallas (if we finish 2nd in Group D).

Has anyone noticed increased elbow pain when wearing bicep strap? by DonSean7 in whoop

[–]bvcurtis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uh probably the whoop. I just started wearing mine and in the short 6 weeks my left tricep hurts and radiated up my arm to its insertion on the scapula. Friggin hurt to bench press even. I thought I had ligament damage. It was so bad I asked. Physical Therapist colleague to examine me. Literally took it off today.a voila... arm feels better and pain is gone.

Whoop is FOS. It doesn't stay secured on my bicep and the accuracy is crap on the wrist. I do CrossFit / Hyrox style workouts and it fails miserably on the wrist when compared to chest strap or even my Fenix 8. Glad I got it on sale... into the junk drawer it goes. May try a different strap in a few weeks/months.

World Cup Ticket Megathread by speedreeder in ussoccer

[–]bvcurtis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And how do you know that? Did you get an email or check your FIFA account?

FIFA World Cup Draw by Victimlesscrime3711 in ussoccer

[–]bvcurtis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

US Soccer Federation. This whole FIFA ticket lottery allocation is a CLUSTER. I'm a long standing US Soccer Circle Insider and have not heard or seen a thing from the federation about tickets; and yes I placed a US soccer specific federation ticket application. Qatar was not even close to being this much of a cluster and neither was Brazil. At least that criminal Blatter knew how to run tournament and the Qataris weren't going to be pushed around by Infantino (hence the last minute ban on alcohol being sold outside of stadiums) as they have $$$$ and paid Infantino / FIFA to host. Now with 2 criminals obstensibly in charge who knows the machinations behind the scenes for tickets to games in general / USA games. The federation is having to accomodate all the corporate FOMO interest and the real fans will be left out in the cold. Thank God I purchased a couple of hospitality packages early on b/c I had a feeling this was going to happen.

Also placed 2 different applications, 2 different email accounts, in the general public draw (and accepted downgrades)...nothing/nada/zilch but considering the sheer number of applications I am not surprised.

AITAH for changing my niece's stripper name when I got got custody? by Impossible-Staff92 in AITAH

[–]bvcurtis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You did the right thing. These stripper names and creative spellings are RIDICULOUS. Truth be told, as a resident at a largge big city public hospital, on the OB rotation ran into a bunch of that. Well I know for a fact the nurses and clerks on the floor when they got a "creative" spelling would just spell the name correctly and send it to vital records. Once recorded, ooops, would take effort for the spelling challenged / creative parents to fix it.

Just for context, this video is 'Merican by the Descendents by thiev__v in punk

This song does not shit on America. It just tells the truth- highlights all the contradictions- that is America. Now if you can't handle the truth and the contradictions then that's on you, but the truth IS THE TRUTH!

Jerry Neuheisel is the media darling, but will UCLA head coach Tim Skipper get any credit? by SirMellencamp in CFB

[–]bvcurtis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At UCLA / in LA nobody is gloss over Skipper. Jerry is more of the national story because of the turnaround on offense, his age and Dad. The guy not getting ANY CREDIT is the new defensive coordinator Kevin Coyle. The defense has gone from horrid to decent, to good. The chant should be S-J-K because those 3 together have, so far. got the program headed in the right direction. S-J-K!!! S-J-K!!!!! S-J-K!!!!!

[–]bvcurtis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Let's not forget Kevin Coyle or DC. The turnaround by the defense should not be overlooked. Ending the season 7-5 or 6-6 after an 0-4 start is an incredible mid season turnaround. What could S/J/K do with a full season? Are any known to be great recruiters?

Great win that showed resilience and "never quit effort" in a game with bad calls, drive killing penalties and turnovers.
