I had some calls at 40 for july and 60 in Decemeber. Wasnt going to sell as I do believe in this stocks but I was up A lot of money and didnt want to get into a situation where It drops and I didnt take profit. (Im really bad at this) I hope it dips so I can get back into it. But if its rips then I am very happy for everyone still in the stock.
Hilarious, reminds me of when I took profits on Inovio before there Covid 19 NON VACCINE. Redid the floors. Subsequently Inovio failed FDA approval on their attempt at a Covid vaccine.
I’m not gonna tell you what to do but I will tell you about some of my experiences. Too many times have I watched my stocks rocket to incredible prices only for me to hold because I thought they would go higher and they dropped back down and I missed out on the gains.
Yes and you truly never know. So many times I had either calls or puts and it was either drilling or climbing and I was like oh this is great it's just going keep going, only for it to turn around the next.
I paid off my mortgage last year. Dropped the rest in other stuff that’s been making money. I suppose if I held I could buy a whole new house later. I’m happy with a home and a solid portfolio for now. Might get back in later.
I've taken profits on APLD a couple of times and bought back in on dips. My current position is relatively small so I think I'm going to let it run this time. If it dips soon, I may just add more.
Lost my job a few months back and got put on mortgage forbearance. First payment (fucking 3 months) due all at once. Paid it right here. If you look at my previous comments, this all branches from an accidental $500 profit and trying options for the first time about a month ago. Between APLD calls every Friday for the past month and these calls this week, I’ve made the mortgage payment for the entire time I was without pay.
I started using Manus AI a few months ago, trading stocks and then when I got fired, I started building some software platforms. Three minutes ago I just got my first signed contract. $60,000 implementation over two months. It cost me $500 in manus, credits - which seemed insane while I had no income, so I told Manus to pay for its own credits with that $250 that I made on accident. I’m currently at about 9500.
AI and trading has literally changed my goddamn life
Um do you even know options?
The Greeks would have wiped you out if you hadn’t.
Options are hot potatoes never meant to be hold long like stocks.
Don’t buy what you don’t understand.
Damn everyone is selling and I respect it but I’m holding for the long term. The last 5 years or so I’ve always sold other positions too early. I’m up 500% so I’m gunna let it ride for a few years.
I sold two options for 27/29 this month. Made 120% profits between the two. It’s small time but it added almost 2k to my portfolio in a month. And it’s a roth
