IWM
iShares Russell 2000 ETF
stock NYSE ETF

I got assigned 2500 shares of IWM after Friday close, if we pump by open I'm ultra fucked

Total Returns since I bought during the pandemic. XLK,QQQ,VOO,VTI,IWM,DIA ETF'S.

Right now SPY and IWM. I'll add QQQ pretty soon. I took it off a couple weeks ago when it dropped below the 8-d MA. When they have better charts I'll run some of the big cap techs as well.

If you degens want to make money, simply short IWM at opening. This index cant hold gains to save its life.

INTC, SOFI, SPY, QQQ, IWM (these last three are ETF’s), MU, SNDK, AMD, MSTR, NFLX, HOOD, DIS, COIN, SPCX, PLTR, WULF.
I’m sure I missed a bunch. I just sorted my high liquidity options watchlist by volume and listed the ones more likely to be recognized.

I have been there, so first you need to access the series of events and make notes where the problems happened. Next, you need to work on your head and remove all the emotions, its just business. Take a 2 week break. When you return trade mostly debit option spreads or only option debit positions all or close to ATM. This will limit your risk exposure. Only trade the indexes, IWM, QQQ, XSP. Only trade 1 to 2% percent of your portfolio. Lastly only & I mean only trade from 9:45 to 11:00am, even if you are a little down close out at the cinderella hour 12:00 Noon!!

Volatility is what day trading is about. As long as the prices are moving, it is kind of proportional to the option premium prices. This is why ETFs is profitable on options like SPY, QQQ, IWM etc. I day trade options, once a day and you can see my posts on this subreddit growing a small account of $300.
- what the person did was to risk $3500. Once you buy options, this is your max loss if it expires out if the money. When SPY is moving, so does the option price. When option strike, the bought out of the money and then SPY current price moved towards that strike of the option, so it gained value. You do not need to keep the options, you can sell it anytime. If it gain like 20c, moved from .35 to .50, if they sell it, it is $20 per per contract, so $2000 profit.
- e.g. spy price is 700 and option strike they bought is 705 call option at .35. SPY moves to 702 and option premium moves to .55, they sell it and get the profit. Done the day. You can see this in my daily trades post and also in my 2 youtube video on SPY from last year showing 2 weeks trades, only 2 vids I have in my channel
- if they keep it and SPY is going opposite way and it loses value, like becomes .20 and they sell it, they only lose the difference. If they keep it and it expired out of the money, then they will have max loss
