gonna have to make a call on which way treasuries are moving. im thinking up for a bit, as that was a REALLY low low before it bounced yesterday. also likely taking a position in calls at XOP for more oil exposure and possibly a couple calls on SBUX for megacap swing memes (i know, i swore off equities, but the chart looks like a clock, and spreads are tight so why not?)

XOP (gas and oil exploaration ETF) has a higher value underlying, thus more expensive options, but better leverage. thinking of buying a VERY longterm strangle/straddle on it if i can snag some at low IV.

i did the same with my USO calls yesterday. itll pullback at some point and well hop back on. if it goes for another spike i might even hop on DWT

Well if the dollar keeps rising, I'm going to stay bearish as fuck on GLD and SLV. Also if you have low gold and silver spot prices, combined with rising oil and fuel costs, your miners are going to get fucked hard. I mean buy DUST until like 6/6.

>Yea I usually play SLV or GLD
im getting back to my roots as well. this was my most profitable trades this year ($ wise) was on SLV and USO. gonna focus in on that.

personally, im trying something a little different than i used to though. trying to build a large position of 600+day strangles at really low IVs. if its moving up today ill buy more. but if i can get an average IV of like 18 on my strangle, and it starts going crazy, ill have made about 100% right there (even if the underlying stays still) just from the vega

does that mean vol? if so, thats why im trying to build up some strangles BEFORE then. the gains you get off both sides of the strangles will net me 100% per trade if IV increases 10%. and if its on a strangle then i literally dont have to worry about its movement/direction

I learned this shit the hard way too
Wall Street only cares about cash and actual figures

WMT said they will buy Pajeetkart but they were't clear about the additional revenues

Wall Street was like "oh let's discount WMT of the cash it will use to buy Rajahkart"

It was the same logic with DIS when the management said they would invest 2B$ in Euro Disney resort

But on the long term, this should be a good move for WMT.

I'm in the same position. Think of it this way...

You buy 200 shares of XYZ at $1.75. Your break even is $1.85. Selling below $1.85 will lose you money.

Story is, you will have to find something that will move enough to cover your commission. You might find the occasional stock that moves a lot quickly (IMTE from May 2nd comes to mind), but in all honesty, either you will need more money or do your research.

>> No.9464125

>>9463968
I was in a similar position and had to use $10/trade broker (later it became $7) you get absolutely blasted by commissions with $400.
Imagine it’s $10/trade so $20 to buy and sell a position. You go all-in for a $400 position. You need to make 5% just to break even. And that goes for smaller amounts: $200 buy = 10% gain to break even. $100 = 20%. So not only are you handicapped there but you also need to take massive risks (going all-in on one buy) just to profit.
When I went to robinhood I started making double what I was making on etrade. I keep the account with $1 so I can use their data. But robinhood is fucking god-tier cost cutting.

Technically it's in the realm of possibility but it's extremely unlikely and would take years unless you got incredibly lucky gambling on penny / sub-penny stocks.

You're better off putting some of your disposable income into your trading account every paycheck until you end up with enough money in there to actually "do something with".

Once you get $10k-$15k in your trading account then you can start making a decent amount of money on your trades instead of the peanuts you'll be making if you only have a few hundred dollars in your account.
