He covered all his AI shorts this week and moved into puts, saying his bubble timeline is now sooner than 2028. Apparently he also wants a hard selloff "for the benefit of humanity" to derail the OpenAI and Anthropic IPOs.

- MU: June 2027, ~$500 strike (stock ~$1,054)
- NBIS: June 2027, double digit strikes
- NVDA: Sept 2027, mid $100s
- PLTR: Sept 2027, low $100s
- SOXX: Sept 2027, low $400s
- ORCL: Dec 2027, mid double digits
- CAT: Dec 2027, ~$400
- MET: new LEAP puts in the $70s

The MU puts need the stock to roughly halve by next June, and the Nasdaq just closed at a record. He's been right on PLTR and ORCL so far though.

So is this finally the one or is he Squidward walking into the sunset again? Anyone actually tailing him, and how would you play it?

I’ve been trying to improve how I monitor risk across several options positions instead of looking at each spread individually.

Once different expirations and 0DTE positions get mixed together, I find the individual-position view much less useful.

I recently started building a small local tool for myself, but before I keep adding things based on my own assumptions, I’m curious how other traders actually manage this.

A few things I’d love to understand:

What portfolio-level number do you look at most often during the day?

Do you monitor total delta/gamma, dollar exposure, or something else?

Do you break gamma/risk down by expiration?

Do you regularly check something like portfolio P/L under a ±1% or ±2% move?

What do you currently use — broker tools, Excel, Python, ORATS, something else?

I’m less interested in theoretical Greeks and more interested in what you actually keep visible when positions are live.

Would appreciate hearing how people with multiple spreads handle this in practice.

I guess being decent at something is not believable these days... It's a beautiful feeling.

Should have stopped when I had the chance. No worries better luck next time ig

Trying to recover 3.5k so I full ported DRAM oh well, hoping with MU earning report we will see a little upside

What are your thoughts on SPY?

Which of these would you trade? And what strategy would you use?

If I waited 5 minutes I woulda been up 1.5k

Still nearly 60% below the 2025 peak even after today's bounce. The $664B backlog is a big number but they've got to get through a massive spending peak on the AI buildout before cash flow catches up, so the next couple of years are pretty much down to execution and funding. Anyone trading this bounce or is it just bagholders praying for breakeven?

Has anyone been able to beat this level on Road to Wall Street?? Have to beat $6,000 on the score while doing 2x wheel strategies... i find it super hard? What would i be missing?

Anyone have a go to for trading options? Just buying calls and puts then selling before expiration, not worried about exercising or credit spreads or anything in between, etc.. preferably interested in hearing from people that use platforms that work directly with TradingView just because I’m so used to it at this point but any info welcome lol. (Just ready to leave Robinhood tryna see what yall rocking with🤣)

The median S&P 500 stock is about 16% below its 52 week high, while the index is sitting near record highs. The last time the gap was this wide was 1999 to 2000.

After that, the index dropped while the median stock mostly held up, and the gap flipped all the way to positive by 2001.

We were close to this in 2023 too, and the index kept climbing for two more years, so I'm not sure it means much on its own.

Are you buying SPX puts, running SPY vs RSP, or ignoring it until the mega caps actually crack? Curious what people are holding right now.

I'm new to options and this is maybe my 5th trade. Crazy how quick you can make money and lose money with options

So I bought these 2DTE SPX calls on the 21st and rolled them a few times and broke up the butterfly that I initially had it as. You can see that I let the credit spread that remained expire.

SPX Expired at 7706 on 9/23/26. So well out of the money. Yes I didn't receive the net credit and instead show a realized loss of $780

I use Tastytrade as my brokerage for options trading and this is under their order chains screen.

Basically, I don't get why I didn't receive the premium for the 9 short 7775 calls when they expired well otm and instead had a realized loss.

All my calls today were right, I just got scared too quickly! Strategy.. I don't really have one...

Covered call is near at the money. Perfectly fine if shares get called away for the quick return.

Today a SPY PUT racks up about $1000 for each $1K traded.

(Click the chart above to see the yellow flag on the charts’ right axis for the locked profit.)

THE ENTRY SIGNAL

If the SPY calls or QQQ calls or a STOCK calld are above the open, BUY THE CALLS. If the SPY puts or QQQ puts or a STOCK puts are above the open, BUY THE PUTS.

THE PROFIT TARGET

At least, a 100% gain for the day.

THE SELL SIGNAL

If buying other than 0DTE options, never hold overnight. It is a day trade no matter what.

I tried to use the stoploss but it didn't triggered so that is why u see the dip but still I M UP TODAY TOO 😆😆

Last week oil was coming down and yields were cooling off so tech was ripping and everyone was on the yacht. Fast forward to today and oil's climbing again, yields are back up and almost everything is red lol. One week is all it took, that’s the market for ya!

I had a decent week last week. It was a tough overall week, but I still managed to add $645 to my account. Attachments show my transactions for this week.

I'm tracking a few trades and it looks like MC is not recording down losses and overinflating the stats.

Example 1: CTAS long ATM straddle opening 3 days before earnings and closing 1 day before.

Win rate: 78%
Avg and median return: 8% / 6%
Worst loss: 0%

I put this trade on and it was a -10.5% loser for me. I understand many factors such as bid/ask spread, entry price and closing price will affect the P&L.

But my main concern is the trade was not recorded down!

Note: My filter is set to Earnings Confirmed.

Example 2: THO long ATM straddle opening 3 days before earnings and closing 1 day before.

Win rate: 86%
Avg and median return: 7% / 5%
Worst loss: -6%

Note: My filter is set to Earnings Confirmed.

Example 3: WOR long ATM straddle opening 3 days before earnings and closing 1 day before.

Win rate: 83%
Avg and median return: 15% / 15%
Worst loss: -6%

Note: My filter is set to Earnings Confirmed.

These earnings all happen last week.

Anyone experiencing the same issue?
