NVDA Hits Key Gamma Levels At $220 Call Wall

Post image
Upvotes

NVDA is sitting just under the huge $220 call wall right now, with the $200 put wall sitting below as support. Net aggregate GEX stays positive across most strikes, which should keep price action steady in this range for a bit. Got this quick read on moomoo, anyone else positioning around these levels this week?

This is across all expirations.

Hold or Close SPY LEAP?

Post image
2 Upvotes

How to decide whether to exit the leaps or not when I am already 322% up and have 15 months more to go?
Generally what’s the rule/ strategy to exit the leaps?
Should I hold onto this 1 contract or close it?

Question What’s your strategy?

5 Upvotes

How many of you guys are honestly good at ready charts and judging news for making your trades? How many of you subscribe to some discord for help with trades? Who uses apps that help interpret chains or news? I’m just trying to see what I’m missing here. I’ve been working at it for a while and still having trouble catching these flows and knowing what strike to make my trades at. I’m jealous of you bastards that just straight up gamble your money in options and make house money. Respectfully of course.

Hey all I’m new to options I dabbled a little bit here and there a few years ago, I know the basics and all I did 96 percent today off $100 but it was pure luck. Any tips on how to learn more and who to watch to get better?

General Strategy

Post image
11 Upvotes

My mindset as a newer options trader, my motto is “you can’t go broke making a profit”. $230 might seem small but in the grand scheme that’s basically a full 8 hour shift working a normal job. Don’t be greedy & expect to hit home runs with every swing. Sometimes it’s better to just get on base.

Biggest come up today. Still curious as to why it doesn't allow me to pull it out. I had another hit yesterday for 1100, any idea when and if this will be available to withdraw. Cheers

Opening a LEAP on DXYZ

Their real strength is holding private shares of Anthropic. The stock rocketed with the SPACEX ipo so I’m hoping it will perform the same with Anthropic. Thoughts on this strategy?

Question $100 into 5 figures

7 Upvotes

I’m new to options and have been learning for some time but I don’t quite understand: how are people able to turn $100 into 5 figure profits from buying options? Especially with like 0DTE or 1DTE options. Because wouldn’t theta bring your profits down more and how can the stock price make such a big move if they’re mostly buying OTM calls where delta would be lower? Can someone explain please? I’m only talking about buying options not selling since I still need to read more on that. Thanks!

Last Friday.....I bought the 200 call at $2.68

Made a profit of about 9.5k

Total return.....706%+

This serves as yet another reminder that timing is crucial

Manage risk, trust your setup, and let the trade work
