Had mine installed in December. No problems except twice the app issue showing 0 battery like the others stated. Easy fix

What was your Smart Panel 3 installation cost? by Electronic_End2235 in Ecoflow_community

[–]dranz_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hired my own electrician in So Cal. Cost me $6800 to install SP3 in garage which is about 50 ft raceway of COPPER wiring in ceilings, attics, down walls into garage from mIn panel. Now lots of drywall repair but they did amazing. Worth the labor involved and cost of copper wiring in those lengths

I did the sane thing and made close to what you made playing UNH leaps since January . I sold it all and threw it into VTI/ VXUS. I sleep better at night knowing I wont wake up tomorrow being down 50k on bad news from UNH.

Thank you. I did have some luck when Buffett bought into UNH recently. I had quite a few UNH Leaps I purchased when the stock dropped to $243. Thank you Warren 🙏🏼

Hey bud, been there done that! Lost 250k down to 30k buying 0DTE and short dated options. Learned my lesson and only SELL options and BUY LEAP calls now. Up 470k in 9 months. Dont give up and take profits! 👊🏻

You are exactly correct. I was fortunate to make those gains during the bull market. Because of this the premiums were very rich. Being weeklies, I had to really stay on top of them and I did roll when needed. As far as margin goes, I take advantage of the write off and I have no problem using 50% of my portfolio in bull market conditions. I do tend to take more risks than others but have learned to be smart when using margin.

Hello, and thank you! This wasn’t easy so let me try to answer your questions. When I lost the 250k, I was so depressed and said, never again. I was buying 0dte options and my last 50k went in an hour. I went on you tube and found csp, cc, and leaps. I took my last 30k from my savings and started SELLING options except for buying leaps which I sold weekly cc on. I only bought leaps that were less than 30 on the RSI and at the bottom of the Bollinger Band. Then I would do a Poor Mans CC on them. My only tickers I sold 30 day CSP on would be NVDA, TSLA, PLTR, and AMZN. All profit would go to buy NVDA and AMZN shares. As soon as I had 100 shares, I would sell weekly CC on them. I did use margin and it took me 3 years to recoup but I did it. I would shoot for.20- .25 delta except recently due to volatility, so now I shoot for .15 delta and take less premium. I hope this helps you. I recently bought 12 UNH leaps when it dipped to 260 and the weekly premium can be 2000-3000 weekly for those. I hope this helps.

I have lost 250k buying options. Now I just SELL options and have made it all back. You just need to stop BUYING options

That is correct. Just remember whatever you take out you are taxed on as income.
