This is the only motivation I need. I’m starting with 20k on monday with full blown spy/qqq/iwm 0dte options till I hit 500k. Wish me luck ![img](emote|t5_2th52|53057)
You would probably had more if you didn't start gambling on options, 3 yrs into SPY growth or QQQ would gave you equal growth to what you did now plus enjoying tax deferred opportunities. Now you are just back to zero with all the tax burden ahead and fees.
Yup. I had avoided NVDA throughout most of this but started after it floated around 120. Made like 10k then lost 7k off it.
I feel good about q3 earnings, but I’m sticking to QQQ.
Try buying spreads instead to reduce your risk. That's what I do. For example, you can buy a 463/464 QQQ 0dte spread that's only a little out of the money for say .30, which is just $30/contract.
I am down $145000 in last 10 days and all because of META and me panicking with the crazy volatility. I could have saved 30000 if I had not panicked but that’s still a lot of loss. It’s hard for me to not worry but we can’t spoil our health and other good things over this. Take a break and think calmly what can be done to over come this loss. I went back to QQQ and playing safe and only with what I have.
