Pfzier got me pretty good being the ceo sold 5 million worth the day they announced the efficacy. I'm stuck on a 11 20 call. Never trusted Moderna and their manufacturing capabilities since they HAVE never had a product go to market so have stayed away. Go figure.
Be careful.

I am screwed on pfzier. Need a hail mary. It will probably go up after the 20th lol. Still don't trust Moderna and it dumped today. I got that right I think .
Tough sledding.

Looking at Vale . Nickel will be important for electric batteries . Hopefully they use oil to get the nickel out of the mine. So looking at at a call Vale and Chevron.
Maybe

If you like your own post does that make you a clown? Probably so but 😄🍻🙃😎
Not that anyone is listening to me and this certainly isn't advise because I'm not a professional trader but I am buying options not stock. I'm in and out generally and have taken some sizable losses to learn options.
Be careful .

I understand the general concept of options, but have zero practical experience in trading them. Any basic pointers you'd be willing to give to a rookie - best practices, situations to avoid, etc. - or examples from your trading of options that could be insightful? |

I would recommend the options videos from TastyTrade on youtube. They're a financial network and also a brokerage I can recommend personally, low commission and I've never had any problems with their service. Their videos teach options from a selling POV in that you're essentially selling the option's time value to another party, rather than the more gambling style of "buy a way out of the money option and pray it goes up quick" strategy lol. Basically the opposite of the get rich quick with options that you've probably heard other people talk about. It only took me a month or two after teaching myself with TastyTrade and a little bit of live trading in my Roth IRA to get comfortable with options and I've been trading them successfully for a couple years now. |

Options are gambling . So is buying stock. It's no different then playing poker. Play the hand or fold.
Sounds like you might be doing spreads.
My only advice is take it from someone who is smarter than you.

Sure, jumping head first into anything that you don't understand is essentially gambling, but really as long as you understand how the time component of an option works, and make sure time is working for you instead of against you, I don't think it's very risky to trade options. The majority of what I do are credit spreads, pretty low risk, low reward. I also buy a lot of in-the-money LEAPs, which are just options that don't expire until 2 or 3 years in the future. I do that because I can control more shares for less money than buying them outright, and then I'll sell short term calls against them to lower my cost basis.

Sounds like you got a solid plan and methods.
As I said I'm not that experienced with options. Still learning myself.
What I do is look at companies I do business with or that are in the same industry. I tend to know the trends so it makes it a little easier to know if it's going up or down. Doesn't always work obviously.
I did buy a membership to bullseye trading. They have been helpful. Tons of videos and live trading available. But even these pro guys get wrong so again minus having inside trading information it is a form of gambling. Just depends on what you are willing to risk.
Anyway for me the best I have done is at opening take my call or put and get out rather quickly depending on what my goal is. This method has eliminated me chasing anything which is what I used to do.

Kodak made me laugh today. Nothing to see here according to IDFC and IG. I had a chance to buy it a while back but didn't because I know Kodak. They can @!$# up boiling water. Forgot about them and today it jumped 80% .
Nah nothing going on here.
Sec hasn't cleared them yet but likely won't come to anything.
It's not what you know....

Now this is taking a hit when playing the market.
Elon Musk’s reign as the the world’s richest person was brief.
Tesla Inc. shares slid 2.4% on Tuesday, erasing $4.6 billion from its chief executive officer’s fortune and knocking him from the top spot on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index ranking.

Oil touched 62 tonight. The people that longed oil are the R word. 70 is coming.
Money is woke. It never sleeps.
