Bro, same—dad of a 3yo here, turned $500 to $50k pre-baby then revenge-traded back to $3k on SPX calls while changing diapers. Sold winners early, held losers. Infants > theta decay every time. Pause and swing trade lol.

I mean it’s such a highly efficient market you aren’t getting alpha. Returns always come with risk and typically “good strategies” you see on this page come from unforeseen risk factors. Usually tail risk. If you want to have fun and gamble that’s one thing but seriously don’t expect to be able to see real consistent long term returns without 1000s of hours of expertise in a specific field. Again you are competing against the best of the best - you really think there would be easy money still on the table without huge incremental risk? If you want to learn or even just become more informed on the industry I’d listen to the Flirting with Models or Odds on Open podcasts. Pretty technical but excellent for learning.

logged in users are growing at a measly 7%, the biggest part of their growth comes from people getting redirected from google. They purely rely on google ranking them high in the search results...

Why don’t you convert your money in USD??? You are paying at lest 1.5% to enter and exit a trade which compound to more than 3% for every single position that you enter

Yeah but they have take high valuations and if a bubble bursts they will drop like a rock and not recover for many years. Doubt you hypers can handle that

It was absolutely mismanaged several leadership teams ago and necessary fixes were put into motion in 2021 that are coming online now. None of that changes that they are one of a few in such an important industry. Even if the US government had to funnel billions of dollars a year to keep the Intel fabs afloat and moving forward it would be insane not too. Intel doesn’t even had to be as good as TSMC it just has to outlast them.

This is every wsb. Line goes up slightly, modest gains, then big spike, discovers 0dte options, day trades, makes bank, then the inevitable loss, chasing a loss with a double down, more loss, a slight bounce just to give em fuckin hope, then gamble the rent. And on and on and on. Meanwhile they could’ve taken that first big win, stuck it in an index etf and some fixed income/high dividend preferreds and sat back with a nice nest egg.

Bold move converting $40k into deep OTM LEAPS — that's either genius or a margin call waiting to happen. The leverage can be insane though; been tracking setups on [StrikeEdge.io](http://StrikeEdge.io) and just watched an RXRX call go from $0.01 to $0.26 in days. The personal loan part is what's keeping me up at night for you. What strikes/expiries are you targeting?

You’re playing this game on hard mode. Look at how much the price of in-the-money/near-the-money TLT options move each day. You can buy expirations on MWF every week. A big down Monday (and big is relative here because the price of the ETF doesn’t move a ton) can give you an exceedingly cheap entry point for a Wednesday call that doubles on Tuesday with a modest price move up. Instead of using that daily swing you’re going to just sit and let time eat away at the premium you paid and hope for a big move.
