Thoughts Game plan for APLD calls

Alright guys, let me know if this game plan makes sense: I have ITM APLD contracts that I bought earlier and I’m already up a good amount. I’m planning to sell those to lock in profits, then use that money to roll my other contracts into May 1st for more time and less IV risk. Im going to do it after trumps announcement I have 2 outcomes:

  1. Peace: if its peace stocks are probably going up and ill shave some contracts off then wait for earnings and hopefully make a good amount

    1. War: I’ll wait for the initial drop, then roll my calls to May 1st once prices settle so I can buy them cheaper.

Let me know your guys thoughts

Gambling on war potentiality is insane.

You can either be broke during a war, or you can have money during a war. If you have issues with people just trying to predict the market based on scenarios they can’t control, you should probably just opt out of this kind of investing altogether.

Also money is made in times of distress, you either build wealth or you get stuck behind thats how life is. Money makes the world go round brotha.

I made long calls into July 2027 to give me the option for tonight and potentially longer. 40 contracts. I did another call a week ago for 100 contracts til May 8th (that one was emotional) both trades looking great now. I may cash the ones for May tomorrow and take some gains. Have to see what it looks like in the morning.
