crypto Composite

been paper playing options for a while, but since 3 weeks, i've been rigourously following the same "strategy" of mine ... OTM strikes on stocks that stick out of the bunch with XYZ criteria (and yes, i fkd up this week with FOMO/revenge trade attempts .. lesson learned)
only OTM calls, some near ATM, but mostly couple ATRs off
TLDR : 200$ to 7418.91$ in 3 weeks, starting June 24th (entered NVDA 155 @ 0.04 on/near open Tuesday 24th) to July 11th
why am i posting?
i want to know you opinion on
a) OTM option strategies, personal opinion, you do it? how is it treating you?
b) brag a little ;)
c) thinking of playing composites, what i call buying a ATM put or call while also buying a far OTM put or call, if you're right, you still profit on either leg
d) have a nice weekend!
started with 200$ 3 weeks ago, went for MRNA 30 and NVDA 155 ... banked 5100% on NVDA, fkd up on MRNA.

ATM on Monday

Allows???? Dude. Bro. Seriously. Respect your partner. Cherish them. But I've been married 27 effing years and not once has my wife not allowed me to do a damn thing. She respects my choices. Yes that means I lost $10k holding onto Matterport stock too long, but hey when it was a SPAC it made me $40k so I still came out ahead!
She's lost a ton of money in the casino during a girl's night with my sisters. It's part of life.
Allows? Really? Hugs bro. You're not in a marriage, you're the ATM.

You can buy IBIT and sell one year out ATM covered calls and earn about 22%.

I'd feel more confident if we closed over 23.50.
But since we didn't... well, I think we're in the trading flat/accumulation cycle. So we'll probably oscillate around max pain, either above or below, but always just right fucking ATM.
IDK how long...

Say someone liquidated their IRA a few weeks ago and is now 100% in June 26 ibit calls. I know my friend has plenty of time before theata decay kicks in but what should be the exit plan. They are at 30% up ATM

I tried but the output was some very strange looking characters, but I might done something wrong. I did also try some AES decoders but it was so many options for formats and modes on both input and output so I had to give up. Hopefully someone has used this kind of ATM and recognizes the format. I also find it strange that there is so difficult to find info on how to use this paper wallets online. It seems like most paper wallets prints both keys un-encrypted.

400. They told me to get a BTC ATM. I passed and had lots I could have invested. Got in around 20k I would do anything to go back lol

Just a first timer here. Bought a little bitcoin through a bitcoin ATM and sent it to my new wallet on Best Wallet. My intention was to get in on a couple of crypto presales ( just a few bucks). But all I see is I own a little bitcoin and can’t use it to buy any presale, they use tether or one of the other crypto. How can I swap bitcoin for one of the other cryptocurrencies in my wallet on Best Wallet.

Sir.... Why are you being a dick! 😂
Been waiting to find a smart ass post to reply with that.
I hate Friday. It's all those fucking post about people's bullshit journals of failed strategies that earn piss poor returns cause they cap their gains on insane IV stocks. They never roll their puts up as the stock rallies. They never sell new puts ATM when their calls are breached. It's madness.
They might make so much money if we keep running up but my God they are teaching generations of people the worst habits ever.

ATM Reimbursement

**What's the downside / risk of the play below (simple Bull Call Spread)?**
Say, I like a promising small-cap trading at $10. Naturally, the IV is very high \~140%, so options are crazy expensive. But I've faith in the company long-term (it's APLD - not that that matters). For December, I see:
$20 strike Call priced at $0.5; and $10 ATM Call at $2.
If I buy $10 strike call and sell $20 strike, I "let go" of the hypothetical infinite growth, but reduce my cost to 3/4th (50 cents premium collected against $2 purchase). Still, it has potential pay-off of 10:1.5, i.e. 666% - quite excellent.
Along the way, I am less affected by theta - as the OTM option loses theta faster with time. As for price movement (delta), there too, the ATM option would have higher delta 0.5 and rising, vs. the far-out option.
Above seems too good a deal to be true. What are the risks I'm missing? Also, if my 'faith' doesn't work out and the company turns out to be a dud, I'd lose less in premium vs. buying a call outright.

I’m not familiar with ACHR, but you are leaning very bullish with the other two ATM orders.

I found this paper wallet laying on the ground, the public key shows some small fraction of a coin. After some research I found out that it came from a Bitcoin ATM, most likely from a GenesisCoin brand.
A have a couple of questions: 1: Is it possible to send a message to the public key that will show up in a blockchain explorer, so if the person that lost the wallet checks if the coins is still in the wallet they could see my e-mail address that I made just for that purpose? (the wallet is from a BTC ATM so maybe the pub.key is on their bank statement or the receipt)
2: The private key is encrypted, is it encrypted with the authorization code on the paper wallet or with some personal password? I have tried to import the encrypted key into an Electrum wallet but it will not accept the format (see picture to see format of encrypted key) , so which format is this and how do I convert it (I have tried with some BASE64 decoders but without luck, I also think the code block included letters and numbers not used in BASE64)

No, an ATM option only has 50 delta. The delta drops way before that point, so you're still losing less if the stock goes down 50%

I agree, the part I'm really struggling with is how hard? I'm looking for a position with short-term gains and my biggest fear is them opening flat and getting IV crushed. Even the best breakevens are going to be around the 7-8% mark and for me that's what I'd predict to be ATM

The latest 8-K confirms SBET just bought 10,000 ETH directly from the Ethereum Foundation for $25.7 million. That’s a clean $2,572 per ETH, and this wasn’t part of any previous ETH disclosures. It’s a fresh add-on, and it officially closed on July 10.
So now we’re looking at a confirmed ETH position that keeps growing, and it’s not just talk. This isn’t some ETF speculation. They’re actively locking in real ETH while most public companies are still figuring out what blockchain even is.
There were also waivers signed by Consensys and Lubin allowing SBET to use reserved shares for the ATM before the July 24 shareholder vote. That clears the way for capital access without waiting around, and without messing up the warrant structure.
This company’s been buying ETH, staking it, generating yield, and steadily pulling in strategic partners. Now with this filing, it’s clear they’re still going hard, and it’s not slowing down before earnings in August.
ETH is sitting around $3K, SBET’s been consolidating around $21–22, and they’ve now made it clear they’re still accumulating. Earnings are on August 12. If momentum builds, we could see a breakout at any moment.
Do you think SBET breaks out this week?

You're not missing anything lol. I'm all in on baba ATM.
They are the biggest ai player in China, with most of the companies using one form or another of either their model or services. They'll then be able to collect royalties down the road from commercial use.
And this is in top of their profitable businesses like taobao, tmall, and Alipay.
Macro wise, China is doing a similar strategy to Trump in the sense they are printing money to pump the market In order to stimulate the economy. So I'd expect the big techs in China to all crush all time highs in the coming years.
I'd add that the median savings per household in China is like 5-6x higher than the u.s., and at the same time market participation in China is very low. So if the gov is successful in pumping the market enough to convince people to jump in, the entire hk and sz exchange will see massive gains across the board.

I replaced my bank with Fidelity. How to deal with Zelle and cash deposits:
You band-aid the Zelle problem by wiring the money to a credit union or bank that has no fees for inbound wires and then Zelle it. If it's after 4pm eastern on Friday and have no money in your Zelle account, you can't wire to it until Monday morning or you have to deposit cash at a branch or ATM belonging to the same bank/CU that gives immediate credit for cash.
That same account for Zelle can be used for cash deposits and you EFT to Fidelity which takes one business day with no holds on the Fidelity side when initiated from your credit union or bank. Never initiate EFT on Fidelity to pull money from outside to Fidelity. That will end up with a long hold. Always do it from the bank or CU.

Yes, Vanguard Cash Plus does all of that except for ATM, but I almost never use ATMs anyway. Haven’t used cash in years. Yes, Fidelity’s cash management account has more features for now, but I’m not going to switch to Fidelity just because of that.
