2) choose the 401(a) with 9% mandatory contribution + 5% employer match (5% of salary, that is)

GALT is starting to rebound from a short pullback, and NLST seems to be starting a bullrun.

I'm longing GALT (average share price of $4.40) until cohort 3 cancer data and phase 3 NASH trials at the very least, but I haven't figured out what to do with NLST yet, I just bought into it today.

JD has been operating in a mature sector for years now and it still isn't profitable
Besides, like every other chink shit companies trading in the US, you are buying shares in shell companies incorporated in the motherfucking Cayman Islands (even Tencent and Alibaba)

>bought at the beginning of the week that are absolutely blessing my portfolio
this is the effect im trying to cultivate w these TLT calls

heres some rules of thumb
>1 never trade options that close to expiry unless youre scalping w them, and if youre doing THAT, then go ITM and hold them for a day or less. theta will rape you otherwise and you wont have deltas to keep up
>2 dont trade options where theres no volume. thats why the spread is fukhuge and also why you ended up having to sell at the ask
>3 ideally only trade OTM options w at least a month inbetween you and expiry. if theta gets to be too much, rollout to later options
>4 pay attention to the IV on the option. if its too high, DONT BUY IT

yeah and thats because RH frontruns your orders to CDEL who are the MMs on damn near every single options market out there. now you know why RH approves you for wtf ever you want in terms of options levels

I didn't realize he is on benzos. As someone with long term experience with benzos. He probably took one too many and drank one too many in the same night. Ratsu is dead, i'm sorry everyone.

Ratsu is my favorite :((((
plz come back

prolly just got banned desu

wouldnt surprise me frankly
thats that game

The primary endpoint of GALT's phase 3 nash trials is no new varices, which the phase 2 trials have basically already proven. Its cancer data looks promising as well. GALT is a great pick if you do your research on the science behind it.

TSLA is a buy. Get in during the dip and hold long.

Mac Miller died and that Trump aid Papa Doc only got 14 days. Kek. Green Day Monday.

yes they do!
biggest thing they do am stack bids infront of you, like mad stack bids, and they also pull asks right as you place them

me can easly get 100 SPXL filled, but whole market moves around me when trying for fill 3000 SPXL

kek no, there deff some HFT crap going on
bots can make 1000s of dollars off me if me screw up too much

this is for pussies

what you really wanna do is yolo your whole account on long weekly calls/puts on companies going into ER the day before they announce.

this is what i did with lulu and its worked out for me 100% of the one time I did it netting me a $5k profit. this is how you make it

Yeah I admit I know jack shit, but what's wrong with my math? Does RH really charge $200 just to front 8k to cover the put?

Thank you very much for the detailed advice. I don't know what greeks mean, time to do more research.

aww fuck yea
TLT gap up confirmed

im just kidding (although i did yolo pretty hard on lulu's er that's not a joke)

how i like to play options is to sell credit spreads on blue chip stocks about two/three months before their er and collect IV premium in the following months... and if I feel comfy enough in the position hold through er and collect on the IV crush

People don't grow their own tobacco, but hippie faggots all grow their own dope. Like you should know, you have some faggot hippie meme degree.

He's being mostly retarded but not completely wrong. Once boomers retire and start smoking pot again, they are going to have a lot of free time. On the other hand, 30 year old boomers and zoomers are way to fucking lazy to do this.

I wish I could grow my own tobacco, but soil acidity and temperature can be incredibly finicky from what I've heard. Also pretty sure its too cold here. Indoor tobacco grow kits when?

Lesson of the day. No matter how good you are at taking losses and where you think you're going to get out, it doesn't mean shit when the bids get obliterated and skip down 5 times the distance from your entry to your stop. I'm guessing I could have dodged this if I kept a closer eye on the order book/level II?

Y-you have to understand, in economics I was the bottom of the food chain for women.
In geology, I am the most socially competent because the average geologist is even more autistic than I am

What if the real reason chunk stocks flopped all the time was because their government has agents over here to profit off the randomness? They see lots of people thinking its doing great so they tank it for a bit and profit.

>the average geologist is even more autistic than I am
Easy now, lets not say things that can be easily disproved.

Maybe it's just my geo department than. We prefer rocks to people, obviously

The USA is the best place on earth for investments
That is one of the reason why the USD is king imo
One of the strength of the US markets is that it's very accessible (try investing in the chink shit markets and see what happens)

It is highly plausible that the chinks are pulling this kind of trick to scam money out of the gullible gweilos who are mesmerized by the yuuuge size of the chink markets (which really are a shitty mirage of shit chink cockroaches)

Fortunately like all chink shit, their downfall will be the fact they will be overdoing it and killing the golden egg goose

aww boo I got stopped out on Emblem sometime during power hour (trailing stop to ride the pump). Good day anyway though, +8% overall.

I mean at least you can carve something half way decent looking out of marble. Pyrite is a pretty shitty rockfu tbqh.

Is TSLA a bargain down here?

i never know, and i hate redditors and their habit for blowing +100k on absolutely fucktarded options gambles. i think most of them think theyre trading futures. ive seen caps of people buying $250k worth of NFL calls when the IV was +100
>sell credit spreads
dasitmane
i wish i had my margins back, but such is life

yup
the more posts like this the more confident i get

baggys actually totally right about this
i think initially that the weed memes rec stuff will be bought quite a bit and the companies will all set ther sales expectations too high for the following quarters. people will like the novelty of buying weed gummy bears and packs of pre-rolled joints and lollipops and candies etc... but the people who are actual serious stoners already grow their own even while its illegal. im certain the price of pot will be inflated due to these companies and the govt taxes being added as middlemen. as such, after the novelty of the rec products wears off, most of the core users will switch to just growing it and manufacturing their own treats/candies/foods as its incredibly simple to grow and cook w. and this will cause a sudden drop in their projected sales. this will likely be the first MAJOR crash of the sector. this could take a couple quarters to a couple years tho

imo if the dudeweed sector wants to actually survive then they need to start taking more seriously the production of hemp and marketing it as a catch-all replacement for plastic/petroleum based things. THIS is what will provide them w steady revs, while the luxury product will be the icing on top, NOT the core source of revenue. the ones who fail to do this will die within a year or so from the crushing amounts of debt theyve taken on

cap this

you should sell too.

you would bang the young ones.

I doubt that. One of two things are happening. 1. Ratsu is dead (most likely scenario) 2. Ratsu is working on a movie trilogy of ratsu and will return with it when finished.

lol *NFLX calls

naw i can just sell him puts later at a nice premium

That's not happening in Canada until next year. Only regular buds were legalized. They wanted more research time for extracts and edibles.

This

Well the industrial applications of hemp are totally where the real money is going to be made, but we need to see some big boy contracts come out, and larger manufacturing guys move into production of said facilities. With Canada being a stubborn cunt in trade negotiations I can see this turn around taking all the way until dope gets removed from the US controlled substance list, and ultimately some American conglomerate will become your dude-weed lmao sector king pin. Fuck these canadian weed stocks. Fuck them up their canadian asses.

market looken goooood

US dude weed is definitely where the speculative money is headed. American markets are more bullish on cannabis than Canadians are at this point. Only reason cron and cgc pumped so hard was their dual listing on the Nasdaq and NYSE respectively.

cannabis destroys your brain sells (yikes!)

lol oh shit
really?
then this shits gonna crash so fucking hard

i swear to fucking god just make me the CEO of one of these meme companies
id have it focus entirely on production of hemp as a replacement to everything from paper to plastic bags to shoelaces to shoes to what the fuck ever you can think of.
fuck you could even take the bud sales/marketing/growing part out of the equation and just purchase the "waste" products off of these other meme companies. have them pay YOU to take their supply of raw hemp off them.

then market it super hard as a go green initiative and collect $200M govt grants every time i go past go. maybe even get some fuck huge tax credits cuz leaf parliament is fucking retarded w that shit.

this is fucking simple and i GUARANTEE that 90% of the meme companies wont even thin about this. and after they fail to capitalize, its gonna be dilute city out there

agreed
leafs are retarded and cant into business and profitability. we will ultimately pick it up where they fuck it up

and those FOMOers are gonna get BURNED pretty soon imo

thats ok, this life is a joke and we live in a clown world. i could spare to lose some

the FOMO and the initial crash isnt even the HALF of it
take a look at some of these companies financials

theyve taken on so much goddamned debt to try and get a foot in front of one another. its all a mad rush to try and be the first big name and grab as much market share as possible and never let go. but we dont even know how much of a market share there is tho, as its incredibly hard to get accurate data on what the capacity of an unreported (formerly) black market IS. everyone assumes its nigh infinite, but i seriously doubt there will be room for even HALF of these companies.

so what will they do if they cant capitalize and dont have any market share? no one is gonna lend them anymore. why would they? especially not w the debt loads most have taken on. so how will they keep the lights on? toxic convertible issuance and 3(a)(10) dilution followed by r/s after r/s and get the stockholders to BUY the fucking debt, meanwhile destroying their stocks sentiment and burning the whole sector to the ground except for the few that "make it". and even THOSE ones will have a rough go at it for the reasons i listed in the posts above. theyre also full up on debt up to their eyeballs

i see great potential in this new sector, but outside of a couple utterances of industrial hemp production, ive seen almost NOTHIN to make me think that this recreational market will be anywhere near as lucrative as they think itll be. they need to have steady revs and the only way to get that is through industrial manufacture of hemp. period.

Confident how? That it will keep rising or the crash is iminent?

Without being a hardcore tinfoil hat conspiracy fag, Trudeau is part of the globalist ideology (like the EU and every anti-trumptards)

His inflexible stance towards Trump is because he is total tool who is totally unaware and irresponsible of the consequences of his actions

The globalists who really call the shot (notably Juncker) actually negotiate and fold

Also, I am afraid we live in a world in which the masses are retared and incapable of any kind of rightful wrath. Trudeau probably gonna live quietly and giving moral lessons like Obama after destroying his nation

just from a technical standpoint they ALL are trading well beyond their actual values. in the near term, these things HAVE to pull back. check the volume on CGC today. theyve run out of buyers up here. not to mention the sector is notorious for "sell the news" and often times "sell before the news" as everyone expects it.

that aside, i feel that the rec sales are grossly over estimated. even if im wrong, theres no way in hell ANY of these brand new companies are turnng even close to a profit for years. and like i was saying above, theyre already bogged down in tons of debt. whats CRONs P/E now? like a thousand or so? scratch that, i just looked. its 1199. and this isnt just CRON. its all of them

now ive known people who grow this stuff on massive scales in cali. and ive met in passing a few who export it to other places (ie blackmkt). every single one of those fuckers is either hanging up the towel, or trying to get IN on this new industry. they know as well as anyone that govt involvement will inflate price. and w legal issues out of the way, more people will grow it as they CAN now w out worry. many already do, but even peoples parents and stuff who use it for pain are gonna be growing it now. its gonna be everywhere. its a fucking weed. you can grow it literally anywhere. its HARD to kill, even if you know nothing about plants, and w a couple plants and youll have MORE than enough to satisfy any ones persons recreational needs for a whole year. not to mention, these private growers will be able to sell it and undercut the govt growers.and the most talented growers out there are NOT being picked for these new companies grow ops in MANY cases.

i have faith in this industry in the long term. it will be fucking awesome and help a lot of people and industrial hemp will be great for the environment. this is NOT the time to buy and hold forever tho. unless you have IRON hands

You can also just buy YANG if you want, it's a triple bear ETF. It won't have as much leverage as an options play though
