Weak men feeling sorry for themselves vs strong men feeling sorry for themselves

I understand why Vs almost never happen now. V is for vagina and no one in this sub has ever seen one!

bro it's like an anime fight bears vs bulls

I think it's best to just stay the fuck away from this market for a bit. It's trading so abruptly up and down, you get fucked no matter what you do. It's like Algos vs Indian 0Dte fiends or something and you always lose

As a canadian I can say that our economy is actually doing shit. Inflation way higher than US right now and CAD at 1 year low vs USD. Rough times, eh

Yea , I ended up selling 235-255 range. Was deeply disappointed Coinbase didn't hit 300-350 like I was targeting usually my x1.8-2.2 leverage, but coinbase had less leverage then its previous run where it did +165% vs bitcoin doing about 80% that same time, though bitcoin hit 100% rally high and coinbase dropped in that time frame. Occasionally they'll diverge. Coinbase is odd as it doesn't follow bitcoin to the tee. It will rally hard maybe a week or two after a large bitcoin pump. And like miners it seems more correlated to the.russel then the nasdaq. Ideally one would play Bito or Bitx calls but the premiums out outrageous like microstategy. If your trying to hedge your bets with a short the best options are going to be puts on coinbase and one miner. I would say riot looks the weakest, but I have a feeling mara is gonna dump like a rock after another dilution, and dip in market cap below clean spark. Clean spark is short term screwed also as they'll probably dilute more to fully acquire some small cap miners. Nothing wrong with that as it will help with industry consolidation.

I learn something everyday. I’m assuming SQQQ has a faster rate of decay due to puts having higher IV vs calls (volatility skew). Backtesting is frowned upon here. Flee to smarter pastures before you fall to corruption my friend.

We are a sovereign nation that can print money on the spot to artificially inflate growth The EU is a collective of semi-autonimous countries that can no longer print money individually, which restricts their ability to artificially inflate. There are lots of other reasons at play, socialistic econ vs. capitalistic econ, etc.

We had plenty of Vs before now it's As I guess
