After yesterday, I'm now positive $256.91 for September... yay...
Cameron Reed
There are a few ETFs that track it IIRC
Downsize risk is to 8-9ish. Upside is obviously 20+.
Wyatt Powell
The Hong Kong stock market dropped today because a technical failure in the exchange's system made it pretty much impossible to trade futures, as a result traders are selling stocks directly to cover their position...
Nolan Fisher
There are no coincidences.
Michael Carter
Isn’t VIX used for a fear gauge? I can’t buy it directly right?. I’d have to take a position in futures or buy VIX based exchange traded products.. like VIXY, VIIX, VXXB.. I’ve never dabbled in futures yet need to look into that
Gabriel Martinez
^^ Also another question.. does this mean stock market volatility is lower the more it drops? Or how can I use this to help my trading?
Leo Anderson
you buy derivatives like like VXX (vix etf)
Julian Cox
VIX is high when there is incertitude about the direction of the market. It means traders fear to be wrong (in either direction)
Zachary Martin
I'm up 239.00 (1.67%) overall so far. T-babies and AMRN are 2 of my largest holdings.
Hope the Green wave keeps up rest of week.
Ethan Parker
Ignore the retarded HEXO sell call, other than that. I think I'm getting better at options trading. Thanks for the tips, biz
Damn, we bullish now. As long as Trump keeps away from making bearish comments on Twitter about China, we'll probably rally to new highs before the talks begin. For the traders, clear uptrend now. Don't hunt for shorts.
Can someone help me understand why do a DRIP dividend strategy when there are dividends every stinking day? Yesterday I wrote a program that goes to a website(pic related) and finds the best rated stock with the highest dividend yield for tomorrow. Then it goes all in, waits until a day where the stock is in the green, sells, and finds another one. Why have 4 dividend days every year when you can have 200? The ROI is only about 1% per trade, but it seems foolproof and recession-proof.
Thanks fren. I’m going to try and start using VIX in my strategy
Charles Bailey
that's right, there is no buying spot vix. make sure you understand contango, backwardation, and contract rolling before dabbling in products that track vix futures.
Gabriel Hughes
Oh shit. I got a lot more reading to do on this now. Thanks for the heads up though fren
We're not out yet. There's still a chance of rejection somewhere in 2980-3000 and orange man probably sees this as a opportunity to beat up china again.
How come they are cheaper than that to buy right now though?
Nathaniel Nguyen
What that picture means is some rascal exercised his call options and stole all my shares away.
Matthew Reed
China said that they are happy with the talks they had with the US yesterday and are ready for some progression in the new round of trade talks. Doesn't mean we will get anywhere this time around either, but traders don't care. Pump it then dump it if talks goes bad, easy money.

The backstory here is that I wrote these calls BEFORE earnings, meaning that the premiums were a fraction of what I could have gotten if I had waited until after earnings. I really cucked myself out of potential gains. I'm not too resentful in this case because I still made good money on LCI, and I decided what I did made sense at the time. That said, I'm glad someone decided to exercise the options early because being forced to hold those shares was just a reminder of the money I could have made had I done things differently.
Tyler Campbell
Should I sell my gold stocks? I'm at a profit right now and I fear that if there's a resolution with China that my portfolio will take a dip
Parker Bell
I have about $3,000 freed up from LCI. What should I buy now? (NOT more LCI). ODP? KHC?
NIO is starting its climb back now that tariffs are out of the news
Grayson Myers
My average is bout 3 fiddy.

Evan Johnson
Why Macy's over other department stores?
Xavier Cook
depends on how much you got on the rest of your portfolio, I guess. I have a smol percentage in gold stocks so as to hedge if the market goes down without investing directly in the commodity (I rather have physical).
Divvies are 10% due to reduced share price from China tariffs. Once that goes away its shooting back up, and in the meantime you just collect
Parker Ortiz
They just announced 200m in convertible notes sale to Tencent yesterday, and earnings are coming on Tuesday. Gonna be a fun week
John White
I saw you faggot I know you waited until 1:30 AM to post that in hopes of not being included in the collage, but nobody can avoid their inevitable fate when they make negative posts about GALT
50% chance LCI will reach 11.45 by end of month. 25% chance it'll reach 12.56 and a 1% chance it'll go to 17.73. For any anons who want to know.

Joseph Johnson
Ooooooooooo you wrote covered calls. I see now. Aww man I was betting on LCI staying where it jumped or dropping and not jump again yet to buy back in but was wrong
Ryan Torres
>suck a dick >gay Get over yourself user, a job is a job
Nolan Nelson
thanks for the tip. the price is just low enough for a good return plus dividends
Do I need to read anything before trading option la on Robinhood or can I just go ahead.
I know what a call and a put is is that enough?
Luis White
That dividend isn't secure at all lol it will be cut or cancelled by the next quarter.
Liam Ward

Anthony Myers
Make sure to choose a strike price and expiry date that works in your favor.
Gavin Edwards

>cut from 10% yield on cost to 9% yield on cost Wow, terrible! How will that user ever survive?
Andrew Howard
That would be suicide. This was a fast drop down, many investors holding steady. They cut the divvie then they're gonna lose a lot of investors, and fucking up their stock for who knows how long.
Easton Hernandez
how do I determine strike price? should I use their recommended range or enter my own? not really sure what it means.
My non real life usage yet study has me believing it depends on how much you want to pay for or receive from the contract as well as picking a strike price that’s a price you’re speculating to be a great price if the stock goes up (for a call) or goes down (for a put)
Nathan Allen
China say they are determined to oppose further escalation of the trade war, say the topic that should be discussed shall be removing the newly enforced tariff to stop the further escalation. But then I don't think Trump will let this happen?
Angel Price
It's 1-(O-H)/O for each row, from 10 yrs of monthly historical on LCI. Then I used the large function on the resulting set of values (120). It's this '=large(h1:h122, 61)' which gives me the value that's the 61st largest out of 120 (50%). I multiplied this value by what LCI opened at this month and did the same for the others with 61 becoming 30 and 1. Resulting in my values. Course it could also go below these values, I haven't calculated that yet.
Aaron Davis
3 stocks Ive wanted buy now for over a month where i just didnt or was penny pinching and theyre up between 5% to 15% ahhhhhhhhhh
Isaiah Foster
This is China saying the US has them by the balls and they just want it to end at this point. The Chinese food president realizes nownhe cant wait out our president because their economy can’t make it even another month like this. Not sure what trump will do he could end china once and for all at this point
Samuel Jones
>what are capital gains taxes >4 days every year nigger I get paid every month
Some of my stocks are red, how long should i wait before buying this dip, hopefully just a dip.
Why do I keep buying high anyways sometimes im not even doing it on purpose it jusr happens to land on the day before it tanks. And when i get thr vibe ro buy but dont cause im penny penching it sky rockets nearly 10% in 2 days.
Joshua Harris
We are finally back at my PSA short level. Could have shorted 2.5% higher but oh well, time to ride that fucker down. Maybe it was the top for ROKU too... i may reshort here
Juan Flores
Huh your id is different. Lol i suspected you were the same guy talking about lci using different ids. Have noticed too many ids that talk about it in a similiar style.
1 month of a stock i wanted going up. Finally buy it yesterday. Tanks 0.17. What am i doing wrong!!!!!!!! It even has a good dividend coming up next week.
Cameron Gomez
Looking to cash in OLLI at 59.50 to avoid the possible bounce at 60.
Waiting for WKHS news to decide whether im taking short term profits or willing to hold a new months for more.
shorts must be grabbing their shares through options
Elijah Butler
You figured it out. I'm the only one who's been posting about LCI... All those "Anonymous" posters, LCIguy... just different personas I don to deceive the masses. Why did I do it, you ask? I had some heavy bags. Got in when the stock was about $13, see. I needed some rubes to hold the bags for me, see. You figured out my plan, but it's too late. You see, I've already won, see. You suckers pumped up the price to $11. Now I've already gotten away. Maybe you'll catch me yet, but it won't be this time.
Jacob Jones
I think everyone is waiting on that news and that's why the volume is so low
Gabriel Powell
>UPRO limit too low, never triggered AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Dominic Gomez
What's the hot money maker today gents? Made $1,000 this week on ATVI, what's next?
Nicholas Myers
Is it possible an institutional investor eats through this $50000000 buy wall? I have some MSFT options but I’m thinking of selling them right before it hits the resistance.
If the need to cut the dividend, there's no guaruntee they don't cut it by much more than that or axe it entirely. I'll check it out though. Thanks for the suggestion.
I'm a wagie having just graduating from school this past spring. Have made about $800 from my initial investment of $3700 5 years ago while still in school. Working to pay off my debts now and don't really have the time or energy (cba) to research stocks. Been thinking of just using a robo-advisor instead. Thoughts?
