Anyone investing heavily this year??

How much money did you lose/gain this past week?


  • Total voters
    30
  • Poll closed .
If you watch the Joe Budden Podcast on the regular, this connects the dots. I love $SQ but I can't make money with a share price of $271. The wide adoption of CashApp and I started noticing it in a lot of the food trucks and craft breweries in my area years ago but I wasn't trading at that time.

It’s a long term hold
PayPal sq visa
I believe will be in the 1000 in five to ten year range
 
Haven't been in here and I really should have been back.

Grab up ARKF - its an ETF do some research but can get your SQ, PayPal and Shopify. Its at 62 now it was 52 a month ago. It was 42 3 months ago. it was 21 a year ago. See where this is going?

Actually there are several ARK's that Im throwing money in but this one is the most cost effective right now....

@SmaLLz

This ETF is FINTECH - so think digital money transfer. Right now 90% of my money comes this way as a small business, Its the future but it is now..

Not sure why Im not getting updates, but Im pulling back from options, there are some booming stocks and etfs that have less risk and damn near same return over the year


OHHhhhhhhhh ARK ETFS are completely transparent, if you go sign up on their website they will send you their daily trades. Chick name is Cathie Woods, white chick is brilliant. Get in asap fellas

Bft is a good spac for fintech
 
So upset with myself that I was such a bitch. My first trade was CCIV 20 shares @ 17.50 and when it jumped to $23, I didn't increase my position because I was scared that the merger would not happen and I would lose 70%. Meanwhile, I spent money on other stocks. My bitchass didn't even grab warrants.
 
So upset at myself! Was sitting on almost 50 shares of $CCIV and sold easily half of it because I doubted my own research and spoke myself out of thinking a merger would ever happen.

Clown shit! Cost myself $$$$

Hard week!!!
On the real self doubt can be toxic. If you've done the research and confident in your thesis, then it not working out wont sting as much. Now, missing out because you didn't trust yourself is brutal.

I've done that with MVIS, SNDL, FCEL, HOME and more. Like Kenan Grace says "There will always be another play".

Advice :smh: ....."
 
Not sure if these are the links your looking for but...


Also, "The answer is only $600 (10 x .60) x 100 shares?" :confused:
See how long I struggled responding :lol:

Thanks for the link, but I just got his full Archive and that video session you referenced is too advanced for me.

Exercise: What amount of money is the most that one can lose with the following position? QQQQ is trading at 37.30, The 36 call is going for 1.70 and The 39 put is going for 1.90. A trader buys ten of each. Obviously, this is a good position if there is a large move in either direction but what is the worst-case scenario? Owning ten calls at 1.70 and ten puts at 1.90 is 3.60 ten times making a total investment of $3600 (10 x (1.70 + 1.90) x 100 shares). Most people, given 60 seconds to solve this problem, figure the answer to be $3600, the limited risk amount invested. This is incorrect. The answer is only $600 (10 x .60) x 100 shares.

First view this, it will help you to understand synthetics.


Then his explanation




What I could not understand was how did he know the opposite call was 0.20 cents and the opposite put was .40 cent.
Below is the calculation.
37.30 Underlying
(strikeprice 36 +c 1.70 ) = 37.70 - 37.30 = 0.40
(strikeprice 39 -P 1.90 ) = 37.10 - 37.30 = -0.20

Understand my goal is to learn how hedge with options like this to protect my portofolio
By understanding synthetics you can understand how to morph your position into something else ( defensively and/or offensively).

ANother guy with some interesting hedging ideas is Hari Krishnan
He gave me the idea to hedge with futures in feb. 2020 when the options where expensive.

NANAIMO, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tilray Inc. (“Tilray” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TLRY), a global pioneer in cannabis production, research, cultivation and distribution, announced today it will report results for 2020 full fiscal year and fourth quarter ended December 31, 2020 on Wednesday, February 17, 2021 after market close.

The news looks good, surprised it didn't move the stock much that day. They have doubled their profits (from 200k to 400k) in the last year under the direction of Joseph Collins. Revenue should get an uptick from renting out the studio space. The stock found new support at .04, but usually is around .03. Average trading volume under 150k.

BTW, their streaming website is very vague on what you get for subscribing. A few clicks lead me to their news blog - https://media.urbt.com/. The help/contact us portion of the website is broken. No social media accounts.

Corporate website ok. https://urbt.com/

Curious when they say “Bitcoin” are they referring specifically to that company or cryptocurrency companies in general? I suppose by supporting one specific cryptocurrency company you’re giving credence to the industry as a whole and all should benefit.
Fed chairman Powell doesn’t really care and he wants you to live your best life.
 
It was posted, by me :lol:
Presidents’ Day: Historically Bearish Day Before & After


^^^This is the type of content that should have been drop last week friday and this week monday at the latest. I had no idea and i suspect most in this thread didn't either. Red all over the place! Certainly opportunities for buying on sale dips. But for some of us(like me) that have options calls that are expiring soon...this is s fucking nightmare!
