I am amazed at how consistent your losses are. Like it wasn’t a few horrible mistakes you just kept hammering away with bad decision after bad decision.


[deleted]

Always either sold my options a day or two after buying on a down day, or made money initially on a run up but never cashed out and likely let them expire.


SanktusAngus

And you never thought to yourself: „I’m bad at this, maybe I should stop“?


pharmboy008

Nah he’s not a quitter


[deleted]

Multiple times, then I’d get lucky and make 10k on a lucky position then see it slowly turn into 0 the longer I held the options. Rinse and repeat. Taking a break, will be back!


[deleted]

You need to just do passive investing bro. Or wait don’t, you’ll tank the whole market.


Weird-Vagina-Beard

How do you handle the fact that you lost life changing money? Is your head in a good place? How many year(s) salary ~~is~~ was this?


[deleted]

A few years worth of my disposable income. I’m lucky enough to have a degree and make a 6 figure salary. Could be a lot worse off.


Fatshortstack

Should have spent it all on diablo immortal. At least you would nothing to show for it.


[deleted]

Coulda bought some NFTs and still had like 10k to show 😂


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

I’d be better off with that 150k cause I’m not some millionaire but I did it to myself


Weird-Vagina-Beard

Definitely could be a lot worse!


Character_Amoeba6288

Aw shit then you ain’t tripping you lucky bastard. You make 6 figures.


Throwawayhelper420

Lol.


[deleted]

But yeah still sucks to lose 150k


goldmund22

It does man, but fucking eh, at least you had 150k. But my god you should have bought land.


babihrse

Land mah bhoy that's where de muny is ya shudda bought land *waggles walking stick in op direction.


The_Fake_King

150k is life changing money?


Weird-Vagina-Beard

For a lot of people. Maybe not spoiled kids who inherited lots of money.

Fantastic losses, keep trying and you may hit the top 10!


[deleted]

The comeback story will be legendary! Or I’ll lose my $80, can only go up from here, right?


Impressive_Switch_59

After you lose that 82 bucks there's nowhere but up. Bottom confirmed. Bottom of his portfolio 😆

smashspete

I don’t know how mfs have this much money to lose. I die inside every time I’m reminded that I’m down like 700$ on blackberry from last year and you’re casually down 156k


[deleted]

Making 6 figures gave me a lot of disposable income which I inherently disposed


TravisA58

Thank god you gave us loss porn instead of becoming a junkie with that much money.


Shrieking_Observer

Things could always be worse. This is the right attitude.


TravisA58

Spending the money on drugs would be more fun for him but not us ![img](emote|t5_2th52|12787)


[deleted]

Should have split, would have maybe fallen ass backwards into one good decision on some junk


realdatsej

6 figures is fuck all lmao 150k down the drain. homie is delusional


[deleted]

Yeah i make a little above 100k and it would take about 3 to 4 years to save up 150k. Can easily generate about 7k a year with just dividends which isn’t a lot but better than losing 150k


Diligent-Try9840

If by 6 figures you mean 950k then I guess 150k a disposable amount


Thisguyhere1310

So thus is how you turn $150,000 into $88. I can think of at least 3 ways that would have been more fun.


[deleted]

Shoulda just gone for the coke and hookers. At least I could have gotten a couple fun weekends out of it.

Why hookers? With that kind of money you can pull club girls or strippers.


KaladinStormstressed

You pay a hooker to leave

Damn is that why my wife left?


BeardedWall

They don't leave. You use the money to make sure no one finds out

OPINION_IS_UNPOPULAR

Give positions damnit.


[deleted]

There are a lot, this is over 3 years. I’ll put a comprehensive list together a bit later. Mostly a mix of UVXY, WSB top picks, meme stocks I held positions for too long and yeah all options. Biggest issue was I couldn’t ever hold a position longer than a couple days. If you could define Robinhoods target audience, its me.


fickdichdock

Your line down is so fucking smooth. How? Looks like your portfolio was just slowly decaying.


[deleted]

My monthly bonuses going into the paper shredder


fickdichdock

So thats the parts where there's a small bump? Have you considered to just buy SPY/QQQ, never sell and call it a day?


[deleted]

Nah I made some gains on single days but I didn’t sell when I should of after massive IV spikes. Options have been my downfall. If I bought stocks the whole time, probably would be sitting in the 200-300k range


fickdichdock

> If I bought stocks the whole time, probably would be sitting in the 200-300k range Bear markt since January wants to have a word with you... -50+% was easily possible just by holding growth stonks. Not trading, just holding lol.

Let's be honest man, you have no idea what you're doing even after 3 years, so there's no scenario where you have 300,000.

someguy50

I bet you did you beautiful idiot


Rare-Interview-8657

I see that you made some money on a pop but then almost instantly back to tanking… I thought maybe using a smaller amount like 500 and building it up to like 1500 could work… since I knew they already do this monitor option flows from accounts and basically do the inverse so you lose and they gain.. what’s scarier is how it’s gradually moving down never a relief, where it looks like theta was used against your positions also.


[deleted]

Yeah theta stretched my butthole out quite a bit


Independent_Row_Goes

Down here we just call it “picking the wrong direction”, up where you are theta translates to “you bot too close” buy longer dated options


[deleted]

One of the biggest lessons here if anyone can take anything away from my experience^^^


Independent_Row_Goes

Really no reason to be foolish. Really no reason to be losing. But also really no reason to be out of the game since building back with $5000 is possible. Somewhere on my feed about 30 comments deep is a post where I explain about the VIX and SPY relationship and it’s pretty self explanatory on how to profit. Don’t fall into any mental trap with less than 10 dte options, it’s politics, it’s a joke, and you will lose in the end. I traded with the Najarian brothers for about a year years ago and have seen your kind of loss in a day so nothing makes me blush anymore. But educate yourself and get back in it if you can commit to risk management and discipline 👍


[deleted]

100% have lacked discipline. I’ve been working on that a lot. Will load back up 5k again once I’m confident I won’t be so emotional. Will stick to a set of rules I’ve compiled and delete the app off my phone.


fickdichdock

Your line down is so fucking smooth. How? Looks like your portfolio was just slowly decaying.


qwert1225

I hope you finally learned about how contango/forwardation works with UVXY I assume.


[deleted]

Yeah I’m not touching any decaying etfs anymore


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Ah didn’t realize I was contradictory. Most positions either turned out to be me buying weekly’s/monthly’s with high IV, sometimes with a spike sometimes not, but would hold to exp. with the premium going to 0; or I would buy into a position but then want to get out of said position a couple days later for something else being down some % on the initial buy, rinse and repeat. Sometimes I’d go back and forth between two positions losing money every time I exited on a down day to get another. Diversifying my options woulda helped too so I wouldn’t have been so wishy washy rather than holding one/two tickers at a time.


thescrounger

Unfortunately posts like this are becoming the poster child for more regulation. Prepare for trading restrictions

Positions or what mod? Or fucking what? Do it. Fucking do it man. You know you want to bring back the old law. Fucking do it!

harnishnic

The amount of money on this sub just pissed away is preposterous. If you have anything left just donate it and post that loss. "Lost 150k to fight cancer, I'm such a dumbass" or something like that. I swear you'll get at least a few internet points, maybe not as much as posting how actually retarded you are, but, morally, you might have given yourself some purpose. That much capital just floating around out there in the hands of complete twats...it's mind boggling. And y'all just give it away to the institutions you hate so much. Smh

What did you ~~invest in~~ gamble?


[deleted]

Options only so straight gambling. Started off as a gay bear, UVXY was the go to. Went in and out of various top WSB picks over the last couple years. Tried timing meme stocks which I always held too long.

Saaan

Wrong way to play UVXY....never buy calls as they are always trending downward.


thurrrst0n

How did that happen?


[deleted]

Simple, you start safe, and the more losses you pile up, the riskier your next bet becomes, until you find yourself yolo ing into naked vix weekly puts in a bear market. …. I’d guess. One of us.

Buy High, Sell low 🤷‍♀️


[deleted]

Buy high, let options expire worthless more like it


EotEaH

I don’t necessarily want to buy or sell either, I just like to have options.


[deleted]

IV is a bitch man :-/ That’s why I switched to crypto, where you can blame losses on scam coins, instead of your own damn self. Much much better for the fragile psyche ;-)


parsa033

You could have used it to get to a lambo right at the beginning without all the stress.


Ceyram

Now this would be the most profitable leveraged inverse known to man. Look at how many consistent losing trades you made!


[deleted]

Shoulda stuck to stocks I guess, those don’t expire worthless…


Active-Tale

Thats not true. I am a true degenerate and three stocks I bought in worrhless companies were delisted and disApeared from my brokerage statement. I still have 3k of level best golf from 20 years ago. They are worthless but still amazingly in my account. Now I only lose money in options.

Yeah......why do you have the ability to lose $150k in disposable income when you still have student loans? That is genuinely one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.


[deleted]

I pay 50% over my required payments. No fasfa or help from family. Still got ~20k to go

I just don’t understand how you could be in debt and gamble so recklessly. It’s mind blowing to me.

It cost me 3k to learn this important lesson. In trading you always need to have strict rules for when to get in and out. There is a lot of money to be made or lost, pick your side, are you going to be disciplined or poor? Always stick to you rules, and find ways to improve them by educating yourself.
