Why are so many of you hindsight warriors?
You regret not joining snowflake, doordash, airbnb. You should also regret not bitcoin mining in pre-2015, not buying enough amd,tsla, nvda, etc tech stocks, along with not buying TESLA OTM leaps 2 years ago which each would have profited 300k-500k each from only a few hundred dollars or missing the bottom in the stock market and not making 1000%-5000% gain. If you bought ZM calls in august those were 10x-20x gains (or up to 40-60x being very modest). If you bought CRM close to ITM those were 10x gainers. If you bought SAP puts during the past earnings, you could have gained 20x gain. If you bought snapchat calls during last earnings those were 20x. So you could have made 4000x-80000x gain. Just 3-4 trades. All large cap so the options were very liquid and market cap allowed for such. We could have been pre-tax billionaires from an initial investment of $12,500 to $250k Too many what-ifs. You could have made millions in so many opportunities yet you focus only on one thing. Risk adverse people tend to lose out on big gains. It is just how it is. You also tend to lose out on big losers too.
When I was buying risky assets people were mocking me. I don't hear them now. Just be ready to lose it all. Most us are middle-class rats after all, the upside is always bigger.
What is TESLA OTM leaps?
Oh wow. Do you play with these? I’ve never traded such. Thanks
Do you trade options often ?
Just browsing r/wallstreetbets will give people perspective. Millions are being gained and lost by random people everyday.
There are plenty of actual good investors/options traders who don't post gains. I did not post my (multi)million dollars trades. People who are use to big gains don't post as it is nothing new.
@op - any option ideas with current market conditions ?
And they are still not buying crypto assets. Smh
People want to believe it was something their luck not their actions which caused them loss or opportunity loss.
Opportunity loss is everywhere, like I stated 3-4 trades in calls earlier this year would have net 4000x-80000x return! This is times return not percent return. You could have been pre-tax billionaires from an initial investment of $12,500 to $250k.
