Congrats on coming back what would have felt like a unclimbable hole
Everyone reading this, this guy is a prime example of not letting your losses blind you from seeing profitable opportunities out there
My advice to you OP, take this win and take a week break. Your instinct is gonna tell you you’re on a hot streak, but it’s your instinct that dug your initial hole. Just wait until you see the market so perfectly you think you’re fucking buffet and then play again
Again, congrats
## Speaker_1: ##
Yeah, once I sell these puts I'm thinking I'm going 90% stocks and play options with the other 10%.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Wait, you still haven't sold and you're here flexing as if you've figured everything out? You sir, deserve to be mod.
## Speaker_1: ##
Oh no. I haven't figured anything put. This was a desperate hail mary that could have ended me.
I was sure it was going down, but I'll be the first to admit that with my track record my opinion isn't worth much.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Take the profits though man. Don't come back making a post about how LFIN went back to 70 and you lost it all. I don't think it will because LFIN is crap, but c'mon. Nice job, so far.

My wife is currently holding 500k in cash. Has been blindly saving in a 2% account for about 3 years now. She buys rental properties nearly all cash and thinks leveraged rentals are higher risk.
She absolutely refuses to do 5 year longs or any form of trading because her brother and mother have "lost it all" in the stock market. I badgered her for the last two years about playing long ETF's and force fed her a bunch of ETF propaganda. She likes to read fortunes and found out that this year I am supposed to make a huge financial gain and was ready to buy in but my losses this year evoked her mistrust of the market.
I realized too late that I married a high functioning autist. It physically hurts me that she is holding that much cash in a fucking savings account.
## Speaker_1: ##
Your wife is sitting on 500k and a couple income properties while you’re losing money... and you’re calling her an autist? Definitely divorce her bro... let some other sucker retire early and buy a yacht while you yolo on weedstocks until AMD hits 9000
## Speaker_2: ##
I'm slightly less autistic than /u/theocletian. I call dibs on his soon to be ex-wife. I'll encourage her to continue what she's doing. Its clearly better than w/e WSB recommends.
## Speaker_0: ##
I am being 100% serious for the first time on this sub. Let me list the things that she does to be able to save that money.
* Reuse paper towels. Yup, she hangs them up to dry and uses them over and over.
* She drove a Yaris until some guy hit her at like 15 mph and it totaled the car not because the impact was severe, but because the thing was just that worthless in value. Her car before that was a Toyota Echo that more or less blew up randomly.
* I did not know 1-ply toilet paper existed before I met her
* She has returned groceries before and gotten refunds
* All lights are out by 7pm right after dinner. She goes to bed at like 8pm which actually isn't bad because I can just play my computer games in the dark. But still, I have to use the flashlight app on my phone to walk around my own damn house.
* Always does taxes by hand. Maybe not that extreme to some, but I always use Turbotax so watching her do it manually makes me want to slit my wrists.
* Dollar Tree is her home base
* She fought me tooth and nail when I wanted to hire some people to trim the massive bushes in front of the house. I gave up and went to Lowes to buy some hedge trimmers to do it myself and I come home to see her out there with a fucking pair of scissors and one of those saw-blade style kitchen knives going at it. She made me return the trimmer.
* She was the greatest slave master when we did renovations to the house. I had bought the house before we met, but it wasn't in the best shape to begin with and as a first-time homeowner I wasn't exactly good at the upkeep. We did all of the gutting, cutting, flooring, painting, etc. ourselves for the entire fucking house. It took two full years to complete and I think I actually cried once when I suffered a really bad frostbite (or so I thought at the time) while patching a plastic covering over our 3-season porch window during the middle of a snowstorm.
* I had to keep the house at 50 degrees at night or up to 55 when we were active around the house in the winter in New England.
* I am actually somewhat autistic (self-diagnosed) and bought one of those weighted blankets. She made me return it and sowed me a blanket weighed down by what I can only assume are extremely old beans. She also patches my clothing which I appreciate since I only have like 3 pairs of pants.
I mean, it is a decent life but it was quite a shock at first getting used to living together.

The spikes in volume are insane when we get this low for this long. I'm talking massive up or down. Its 50/50 who knows but looking at these charts makes me think some big money is about to throw a nice spike in. Good luck.

Its for hedging your long positions. Large institution would buy these short term to protect the stock they don't want to get rid of.
## Speaker_0: ##
How does it protect stock?
## Walls1337bot: ##
It doesn't protect the stock it protects your portfolio from volatility events. For example Iran threatens to attack US export routes they might want to hedge their positions during this spike of volatility without actually getting rid of their shares in $AAPL for example.

## Speaker_1: ##
Look how happy he is. He’ll just apologize to the SEC. How could you not forgive that face?
## Speaker_2: ##
Why does he have to apologize to SEC?
## Speaker_3: ##
Because he’s intentionally affecting the price of the stock. So his brothers can buy and sell and reap big gains, because you know he’s not really busy building 7000 cars a month.
## Speaker_2: ##

I’m gonna say that this is not a great idea. You don’t want to be using a credit card for investments, specially if you’re just starting out.

## Speaker_1: ##
Very true. I'm holding my position.
## Speaker_3: ##
NVDA is selling the chips for the Switch.
The Switch has been selling so obscenely well that there are entire subreddits dedicated to finding them to buy.
This isn't to say that NVDA will be popping off, but to say that it will continue its slow rise as more investors key into the Switch and other NVDA ventures and realize that the drop was a little much.
## Walls1337bot: ##
> The Switch has been selling so obscenely well that there are entire subreddits dedicated to finding them to buy.
Nintendo always sells obscenely well. Mainly because they purposely create less than the demand to make hype. The switch is a shitty console that runs BOTW at 30fps and still has hang-ups. If it wasn't Nintendo it would be a crap gaming system.
The emulators for PC run it better after just a short time. That's pretty much unheard of, they're still trying to get PS3 to emulate well on the PC.

Right as the news came out, was following Tesla all day yesterday wondering why the Chinese upgraded it and if it was related to Giga 3 and I was right
## Speaker_1: ##
I had a very similar trade to this. But the bump wasn’t due to gigs 3 it was due to the leaked email. Hope you sold while this was green.
## Walls1337bot: ##
It was both, but imo giga 3 is just as big because the “bears” case is the margins aren’t what Elon promised but with cheap Chinese labor and cheaper materials, margins will increase substantially
## Speaker_2: ##
Tesla car materials already errr on the cheap side in comparison to other vehicles in the 100k/65k though? I would say a better trained work force and lower turnover would definitely help (you get what you pay for in China)

China already lost their second place stock market size to japan due to the trade war. I’m guessing they want a way out, but need to be able to save face in the process. This article might be a part of that.
## Speaker_1: ##
I agree, but the truth is that there just isn't a good way for China to get out of this, while saving face. Their mentality is more stubborn, ya?
## Speaker_0: ##
Yeah, I can’t figure a graceful way out either. Their obvious play would be to bow down and take it knowing trump will be out in a few years (Made in China 2025). They are used to thinking in terms of generations, whereas we are way more impatient.
The problem is that they can’t bow down and take it without showing some kind of face saving gesture from us first. Maybe both parties agreeing on trade rules or something with US giving a gift to China in return? Like perhaps US agrees to take down THAAD and we can pretend it is because North Korea is now nice and China can tell their people they made us do it.
## Speaker_2: ##
Why does the US even have to consider helping China save face, I thought trade wars were easy to win?

That Start Over button is going to come handy soon when you mature from Robinfag and learn what options are.
## Speaker_0: ##
This is so true; I really wish I had a start over button.
I had been holding just stocks and was pretty happy with close to 50% gains over two years, then I decided to slowly go into options. Within a few months, I had basically doubled my money just buying NVDA and AMZN calls. Then I got greedy and started making faggot delight gambles, and within another month I had dropped down to half of what I started with (this was about two months ago), and just finally made it back to breakeven today after hopefully learning my lesson.
It's weird to look back and see how I stressed so much about few hundred dollar daily moves on my portfolio when I was just holding stocks, and now I gain/lose a few thousand every day without blinking an eye after options. It's like a drug/gambling addiction.
## Walls1337bot: ##
As someone who ventured down the rabbit hole and is far stuck in it, take what you can and GET OUT!
Play the stocks and use passive income as options (cash covered puts, covered calls). The options writers will ALWAYS win! Remember this advise or we'll be loathing together :)
## Speaker_0: ##
I had been thinking of doing that soon now that I am back to even, but my greed was getting in the way. Now that I've given it some thought though, you're right; what I'm doing now is fun but not worth the stress or risk. Don't like 90% of options expire worthless? Anyways, thanks for the advice, you may have just saved me from bankruptcy a few years (or months) down the road. I hope you manage to pull yourself out of your rabbit hole one day :)

Pretty glad I've pivoted most of my holdings out of commons. I think I only have 100 shares left @ 2:90 cost basis. In case you're still holding majority commons and haven't been following the news the past few months, be prepared for your likely trip to the center of the earth.
Any reason for the small dip on the preferreds today, or are they just getting dragged down a few points by proxy? I don't see anything substantial on GSElinks or anywhere else but I've been in meetings all morning and haven't had time to look until my morning poop.
All in all, pretty excited by the momentum. The $3 billion capital cushion, Corkers retirement, and the plans that are gaining traction in the narrative are all positive developments. Looking forwards to a possible resolution by end of January.
As is tradition
u/NOVACPA
## Speaker_1: ##
>Pretty glad I've pivoted most of my holdings out of commons.
If only everyone was provided an [warning](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/7l9odi/fnma_fmcc_are_officially_retaining_capital/drkjn9y/) ahead of time.
>Any reason for the small dip on the preferreds today, or are they just getting dragged down a few points by proxy?
For $FNMAS, this is basically their normal trading range. I wouldn't read too much into it. It definitely was marked up on 12/31 for someone's book, so this could just be it getting back in line with the market.
>I don't see anything substantial on GSElinks
The WSJ had an article that was about the same as the BBG article from last week. Nothing new there.
Only tangential item would be that Corker & Trump are on a plane together today for an extended period of time as Trump travels to Georgia. I believe they are stopping in TN for a minute as well. Read into this meeting as you will.
>Looking forwards to a possible resolution by end of January.
End of quarter appears to be the date to make moves (historically speaking). The spending bills would be one item to keep an eye on and around the 15th to see if the language of the Corker-Warner bill is out.
## Speaker_2: ##
Presuming Corker fails, aren't we still looking at the Moelis plan as the way forward? Moelis gives decent valuation of commons in five or so years. So why wouldn't I want to buy some commons at $2? Or do we expect the government selling the warrants back to us as an IPO to be a much much better discount than what we see here?
## Speaker_1: ##
>Presuming Corker fails, aren't we still looking at the Moelis plan as the way forward?
My opinion is that Moelis is the basis of any plan, but may get contorted in a number of ways. Think of Moelis as the "base case" and everything is being driven from there (i.e. recapitalized, but bringing in multiple guarantors; rechartering with new entities; etc.).
>Moelis gives decent valuation of commons in five or so years.
This is correct. $8-12. Remember this was pre-tax plan, so the valuation should be higher as the earnings will be greater in the future. However, caveat that with the possibility of competitive advantages being eroded (i.e. recharter; no duopoly; higher capital ratios; etc.). The valuation is probably still there.
>So why wouldn't I want to buy some commons at $2?
Assuming everything we've read over the last two weeks is true, then commons look to bear the brunt of any political retribution.
>Or do we expect the government selling the warrants back to us as an IPO to be a much much better discount than what we see here?
They have precedent from AIG to exercise and sale, which is what I would expect to happen.
This is the piece that is irreconcilable with the Corker-Warner bill (or anything that zeros out commons). The government (in actuality, the executive branch) forgoes $100B in unappropriated funds. That's hard to pass up.
Tie this in with the infrastructure plan and you see how valuable the $100B is. If they are trying to get to $1T and go with a 4:1 matching of city, county, state, and private funds to Federal funds, then they are quickly at $500B of the proposed $1T.
## Speaker_2: ##
Your last two paragraphs... Corker and Warner are attempting to prevent the government from exercising the warrants, or at least make them worthless, right?
## Speaker_1: ##
Correct.
Remember my original post on capital structure... I'm on mobile or I'd link it.
Preferreds sit above commons which sit above the warrants.
Therefore, if you zero the commons, you'd have to zero the warrants.
If you maximize the value of the warrants then the common has to benefit as well.
I only see a couple was where the common gets fucked and warrants are valuable, but it doesn't seem practical.

How much is that compared to your total capital? If 1k is a lot of money for you to be trading with then you're better off saving money from a job to build up capital to trade with so you're not losing 1% to fees with each trade.
Alternative: take that 1k to a casino with low bet blackjack tables. Antes are cheaper than commissions at a broker and if you play fairly smart and consistently bet low and stick your earnings aside you have a decent chance of being up a hundred or two hundred bucks at some point. An easier 20% gain in a shorter amount of time if you only have 1k to trade with.

This is what I don't get. Almost no economists support Trump's tariffs, why does WSB?
## Walls1337bot: ##
This has always been my biggest problem with Trump in general. He doesn’t listen to experts on so many things that the experts are vastly in agreement of.
- Almost all economists agree Tariffs are bad. Trump establishes tariff.
- 97% of climate experts state climate change is real and being caused by humans. Trump disagrees and undermines them.
- Almost all doctors and Trumps own experts vehemently agree vaccines do not cause autism and you should get your children vaccinated. Trumps tweeted 20 times saying they are linked.
- Pretty much everyone qualified to discuss the health detriment of asbestos states it is carcinogen. Trump tries to lift ban on asbestos.
There’s a reason a lot of his advisory councils disbanded or people left, because he doesn’t take their advice. If you go against the experts over and over again, when they’re in overwhelming agreement, you’re bound to run whatever it is into the ground or cause harm to whatever it is eventually.

## Speaker_4: ##
This tweets are idiotic? Yes
Does this make him a moron? Completely
But by what you showed the last time he tweeted about that was in 2014 and most of them in 2012 I don’t think is fair in my opinion you put this as an argue about his presidency. Obama was also a completely different person pre-presidency, one exemple is that he acknowledged the Armenian genocide before but not as a president.
But still that are a lot of other actual good arguments that you could make about his presidency but this one is simply not fair.
## Walls1337bot: ##
I gotta disagree with you man. 2014 was only two years before the election and he repeated it in a republican primary debate in 2015. He has never come out and stated anything to the contrary and has given the anti-vax movement a big boost by never condemning it. As president-elect he tossed around the idea of a “Committee on Autism” in which a prominent anti-vaxxer would have been on. He just hasn’t pushed it because it would be a lose-lose situation; legislatively and politically.

My experience with snapchat this month:
I'm mid thirties old
I've heard of it before
I don't really know what it is or how it's used

I've never used it, don't know anyone who has ever used it
How is it better or different than texting? Can't tell

It's a chat where you trade self destructing nudes to the person whom you are hot on. Every other use it is not better then something else.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Can’t you text nudes? I don’t get it
## Speaker_0: ##
No. A snap is a picture so snapchat is an app that you take pictures of things and add words to them. You can also text but the picture aspect is the driving force. So if I wanted to show my girl a dick pic with the words "thinking of you" in rainbow letters with hearts coming out of my dick, that is completely possible and a feature (the dick does come separately). That picture will also self destruct in a time frame I want so no one can easily save it and use it for later.
## Walls1337bot: ##
OH. So the automatic deletion of the pic is the selling point... for the debased youth of a slightly younger generation. I’m sure no one could ever take a screenshot of the snap and save the precious rainbow dick for later reference.

## Walls1337bot: ##
The correct term would be "edit". You technically can use photoshop for editing video frame by frame, but Photoshop is primarily used for still images (hence the name PHOTOshop). This is why people use the term "Photoshop" in regards to a photo, not video.
When you're working with video you edit it using something like After Effects.

Okay, I heard something about this quote that genuinely changed my view about him.
He knew exactly what he was about to say. It was an off-the-cuff remark that he started before he fully thought about it. He was about to make a soundbite of him saying "Shame on me." He noticed that halfway through the phrase and had to find a way to squiggle out of it.
## Speaker_3: ##
I've seen this posted almost everytime the quote comes up recently... yet I have NEVER seen the source for that explanation.
That really sounds like an after the fact type thing... Especially since it wasn't his only speaking gaffe.

I'm a current intern at Snapchat. AMA? I can't reveal non-public info but I can tell you all about how great the hotdog meme life is.
## Speaker_0: ##
Whats it like to know you're about to be unemployed and your resume will be a joke of sorts?
## Speaker_1: ##
Snapchat pays $10k/monthly for many of their interns. He'll be perfectly fine.
## Speaker_0: ##
120k a year for an intern? Legit for him if its true, but I sort of doubt shareholders approve, sort of makes them an even more retarded company. They are already hemorrhaging money... You ever notice how the successful companies are getting in shit for basically making interns unpaid slaves? Yeah... I have little faith in their dancing hot dog business strategies... I'd work for them for that amount of cash, but you know, after they declare bankruptcy, might be wise to keep that off the resume.
## Speaker_2: ##
Software companies typically pay interns high wages, it's how they compete against other tech giants. You need good fresh SWE's and the only way to attract them is via salary.
## Speaker_0: ##
That may be true, but conversely, you also need a viable business strategy for "good fresh SWE's" to be worth anything. Unfortunately, snapchat is severely lacking in this particular area.
It's like if a car company tried to justify expensive factory workers, because they were the best factory workers, but every day at the factory all everyone did was jerk off into beakers and then throw the beakers into the ceiling so that they exploded aids cum all over the factory and no cars ever got made. That's what snapchat is.
## Speaker_2: ##
Very true, but in this context were talking about interns and I'm coming from the perspective of a graduating cs student. Although Snapchat may be a shitshow of a company, it still has a very good internship program for swe's. Very much like Uber, both companies have difficult interviews and are highly selective for their interns despite not being tech giants. This transitions to those interns being highly sought after when their done with internships program. Would I want to stay with snap if I interned there? Probably not, but I got a great resume label with an extra 20k in the bank to lose to yolo trades.

You must show your work for credit.
## Speaker_2: ##
$100 is right.
If the lady hadn't stolen or bought anything then the owner loses nothing.
If the lady hadn't stolen anything but bought something, the owner loses nothing.
The lady stole $100 dollars, so the shop owner is down $100 dollars. It doesn't matter what she does with the money after that. It could be a different $100 that she bought things with or the save. Shop owner is still down $100 dollars from where he would be if she hadn't stolen.

## Speaker_0: ##
Money isn't your problem. Look at your history: you're 20 years old, paying prostitutes for fake relationships, using hard drugs, losing all your cash on gambling. While you might be in good company here, that's all symptoms of serious sickness.
Your head's not on right. Forget about money and focus on that first. Because even if you get all your money back, and millions more, you're still living wrong, where that road won't go anywhere useful.
What you need to realize and drill into your every waking moment, is that **meaningless pleasure is worthless**.
* **Prostitutes** make me feel good like I'm winning *sexually*.
* **Drugs** make me feel good like I'm winning *happily*.
* **Gambling** makes me feel good like I'm winning *financially*.
Sex, bliss, money; it's all basic desires. We feel good when we're winning in life. We seek those pleasures, to win in life.
But you can stimulate them without winning using tricks that are actually losing.
* **Prostitutes** don't make babies or cook you food.
* **Drugs** don't cure the pain only temporarily mask it.
* **Gambling** doesn't produce anything but debt.
You're losing. You have an F on your test, but added a line to make it an A, and it felt good for a moment, until you see it's meaningless and you're still a failure.
The solution is to realize that stimulation, and feeling pleasure, is worthless if it has no real meaning.
Scoring with a chick doesn't count when you pay her. Feeling euphoric doesn't count when it's from a drug. Getting rich doesn't count if you didn't produce anything of value.
You've got it twisted. If you can't realize this truth, you'll chase empty stimulants to your death, and nobody will care because you weren't valuable anyways.
Do something real. Losing some money doesn't mean anything. I'm down around that much, and it's not depressing at all, because I know what matters. I'm building things, and that money is nothing but some play cash. What I build is what has value, because of its utility in helping people improve their life in practical ways.
I'm not paying for sex, or hitting it quick off an app. That's just distraction. If you want a woman, you work to get the resources to invite her into a real home, where you provide her with serious value. You can get your seconds of orgasm alone, without messing around wasting your time and money chasing cheap tricks.
I'm not gambling with anything I can't afford to lose. I don't pretend it's anything but pointless gambling, and don't blame myself when a trade turns red. If I make some gains, I don't pretend it means I'm skilled or valuable, it's just stupid luck, and meaningless money. I focus on building true value from real practical business.
If you can't get it straight, at least educate yourself on the likely [conclusion](http://lostallhope.com/suicide-methods/statistics-most-lethal-methods), and take steps not to mess that up, because you don't want to scar someone for life and mess them up too. But you should be able to figure this out, and realize:
Meaningless pleasure is worthless.
The way you know if it's meaningful or not, is to pretend there's no pleasure, and see if there's any other value. If you couldn't orgasm, or feel pleasure from a woman, what use would the whore be? If you couldn't get high, what use would the drugs be? If you don't have any real business needs for lots of money, then what point is it to be rich?
Pleasure is only worth something when it means something; when it has true practical utility. Find things you can do to stimulate yourself that way.
Like if you clean someone's gutters, and they pay you $20, you can feel good about that gain, because you did something useful. If you take a girl out and she kisses you because she likes you, and you have a future together, you can feel good because that could be your wife. If you exercise every day for months and feel bliss because you're healthy, then that's real.
You're not real. You're a cheater, cheating yourself. Recognize true value, and chase that, not empty thrills.
## Speaker_1: ##
"Prostitutes don't make babies or cook you food"
Feel like the "Prostitutes don't love you back or want mutual happiness" might've been a better route....
## Speaker_2: ##
Prostitutes also don't have a 66% chance to break your heart and take half your shit when they leave.
Edit: It's a zero percent change that a prostitute will break your heart and take half your stuff, unless you married a prostitute in which case I'm glad I'm not you.
I'm getting a lot of personal attacks, and while I enjoy receiving them(like any human with feelings) perhaps the energy would be better spent looking inward and finding out why I've triggered you so hard.

## Speaker_4: ##
If it'd be a woman attracting the wrong kind of men you wouldn't be such an asshole about it.
Let's try to be equally supportive to everyone, even if we haven't lived the same life as them.
## Speaker_3: ##
If the woman was running around saying men are shit I'd have the same response.
There's a lot of good people out there who wind up attracting shitty people. This guy is behaving like a piece of shit.

The [term](http://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/deathspiral.asp) is "[Death Spiral Financing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_spiral_financing)".
>How can you tell if a company is entering into one of these deals?
SEC.gov or specifically [EDGAR](https://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/companysearch.html).
You should be getting notices when a company files with the SEC. Fidelity publishes a list of recent filings for all of my holdings. Some are mundane but others are quite informational.
Here is [someone](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-03-12/josh-sason-made-millions-from-penny-stock-financing) who made a lot of money on it and its why you should stay away from penny stocks.

Man we joke a lot on this sub, but places like that are moral garbage in physical form. Setup shop in a shitty building in a low income part of town, bar the doors and windows, offer the uneducated and desperate citizens what is essentially a legal scam that puts them even further into poverty.
I know that sometimes they can do good, sometimes someone with a little financial know-how is in dire straits and can manage the interest rates to get them through bad times - but these places essentially scrape the bottom of the barrel of the impoverished populations already meager funds. They use predatory collection strategies against people who wouldn't even know how to protect themselves, and that's just beyond the line for me.

Out of curiosity what is it you don't agree with the guy on? I understand not liking someone's attitude, but have you actually looked at Pharma as a whole in terms of industry standard? What he was doing was a drop in the bucket compared to what other companies do. Not that that line of reasoning can stand on its own, but coupled with the fact most profits were going back to R&D and free drugs were distributed to those who needed it, says more than what other companies can say. And if we aren't talking about that, than we are speculating on guilt pertaining to his securities related charges. If he's guilty on those charges, by all means I don't think there's any good worth grasping at, but I don't think all the light has been shed on that topic yet. Keep in mind he's upset every person you don't want to upset relating to all this. So pretending the media is spoon feeding you unbiased information is a joke. Not saying he's a saint, but people love to jump on the hate train because they watched CNBC for 10 minutes and it's the popular opinion.
Edit: Just to clarify, I could care less what position you have. More interested in you elaborating on the why. Personally, I don't think he's half as bad as 100% of the media wants me to believe. He's no moralist, but surely he cannot be as bad as they say.

## Speaker_2: ##
Watch em get sold at open.
## Speaker_1: ##
Is really like to see that with you buying the only 4 and no open interest. Good luck!
## Walls1337bot: ##
Remember where that guy got assigned like 500 shares of spy (I think) on a dumbass spread during the volicaust and sold at open for like 104k profit?
Sometimes stupid gets lucky and lucky gets rich.

That's good, but the EU isn't exactly on our side either. They could have been, but we cleverly declared "trade war" against every country on Earth, simultaneously.
## Speaker_1: ##
The EUs trade deal was absolute horseshit, and they all tried to push trump into a corner to sign it. I’m very happy he didn’t.
## Speaker_2: ##
What exactly was horseshit about it?
## Speaker_1: ##
A lot of it is ridiculous and looked like it was written for a feminism class thesis.
> We will expand market-driven training and education, particularly for girls and women in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields. We recognize the need to remove barriers to women’s leadership and equal opportunity to participate in all aspects of the labour market...
There’s more stupid shit, but you can really see Trudeau’s tears in the text.
## Speaker_3: ##
Really? This is the issue you had with the trade deal?
## Speaker_1: ##
That’s one of the issues. Shoe horned in language that really has no place in this deal. What does forcing women into the tech industry have to do with anything?

From my understanding most of snapchats featured spots are popular locations and attractions that people may be interested to going to.
It's comedic this got caught in the software filter and is showing up as such
## Speaker_2: ##
The algo catches significant upswings in snaps over a geographic area then looks at newsfeeds to see what's going on in there
## Speaker_3: ##
Wait so this means people were snapping the shooting? Wat
## Speaker_4: ##
You can be damn sure if I'm hiding from an active shooter I'd be contacting my friends and family through whatever app I normally talk to them.
## Speaker_3: ##
And when your phone dings or buzzes and alerts them to your position... cool. Also, keep the airwaves clear. This is active shooter 101.
## Walls1337bot: ##
Keep the airwaves clear? I've never heard this. Phones don't work like walkie talkies. Also my phone is always on silent.
I've never taken active shooter 101, though. This isn't something we had to worry about. Columbine was a complete aberration when I was growing up.

Not face to face, I don't have to listen to WSB complain when I have my phone and computer off.
That and WSB doesn't ask me stupid goddamn questions that I have to answer for 8 fucking hours, 5 goddamn days a week. And I can choose to answer stupid questions while listening to my stupid fucking faggy ass rave music.
This place is like hanging out with a bunch of *friendly* retards, with a few drunk asshole retards thrown in. But I block them, and the rest of y'all are in good spirits most of the time, unlike say, most everyone at work, most of the goddamn time.

At ~$3 though even if it fails it's not going to drop all that much. It won't be hard to bag hold if your ACB is that low and wait for a recovery.

I did, but I don't understand why VIX isn't some easy trade. The VIX options seem to correlate to the VIX chart, but I know the VIX options are actually based on VIX futures...
## Walls1337bot: ##
By all means go for it, but odds are not in your favour. Are you trying to make huge bank here or just fun money?
## Speaker_0: ##
Huge bank, but if you look at the 10 year charts, support has almost always been horizontal.
Once the price touches support, it usually bounces up at least a dollar within a month. That's like 50% gains.
It happens all the time on this thing. But if it was this easy (just buy when it touches support cause you're almost guaranteed a dollar pop), why aren't more people doing it? I must be wrong somewhere?
## Walls1337bot: ##
Dude, 10 year chart on VIX? VIX is constantly declining, it will spike periodically about once a quarter roughly, but then it drops to near all-time lows within a week or so. Any options you buy will almost certainly decay in your hands, excluding any possible event where the markets fall apart (which hasn't happened yet).
XIV might be more your style, an etf you can actually buy and all you need to do is buy in whenever VIX spikes and sell back at the top.

## Speaker_1: ##
# FAQs for those from /r/all:
> What is this place
Welcome to wsb, where bid/ask spreads don't matter and we lose our money to by buying far out-of-the-money options and going all-in on shitcaps.
> What are you talking about, what are those words
You know what's funny? Subscribers complaining about shit content and too many newcomers, but still upvote shit to /r/all.
> What are options?
Leveraged instruments that make it easy to win/lose (mainly lose if you're buying) money! You might remember /u/world_chaos turning [$900 into $55k over the course of a few days](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/3zwsuj/so_i_had_900_left_in_one_of_my_accounts_and/) and later [$200k.](https://embur.io/pxeyl)
> So if I know where a stock will trade at a certain date, how do I make a ton of money?
Stick your prediction into [optionsprofitmaximizer](http://optionsprofitmaximizer.com) or [optionsprofitcalculator](http://www.optionsprofitcalculator.com), and see the massive money you can make on unexpected moves! Then trade it on a virtual stock exchange or lube up your e-trade account.
> Why is OP saying "fuck"?
wallstreetbets thinks its really really funny to overuse the word "fuck" and "faggot" and "go fuck yourself." But also, he's probably mad because we don't have any more automoderator, and this sub is about to shit itself and go private again (thanks SEC)
