Happened to me with $NNE, sold my long held options for months when it hit $46, made a hefty profit, was going to try and swing trade it for the first time, it sold off like i thought, but next week it only came down for a few days, following week it hit into the $60s. My thesis of when everything would peak was so dead on accurate and even exceeded expectations, i just failed to capitalize on my euphoric bull case scenario I got lucky and rolled profits into some REE stocks with that money, few weeks later those topped out, i was determined not to let the same thing happened then that week everything Rare earths broke down. Port was at 120% on the year, i round tripped the profits and i’m at like 45% on the year. Learned my lesson in both selling too early and round tripping easy portfolio doubling profits.

Big drops are rare in this regime? The fuck?

When the VIX is at 16, the market is pricing in an average daily move of roughly 1% for the S&P 500 (derived from 16 / 16 = 1\%). When VIX < 16: The market expects daily moves of less than 1%. Behavior: This typically results in low-beta, steady up-days. Big drops are rare in this regime, but so are massive single-day surges. It is an environment that favors "buy and hold" or positive delta strategies over premium selling (since premiums are cheap).

We need some sort of catalyst. Where is the news about the IPO of that one company 3D printing quantum blockchain microchips that are now being used to run AI simulations on deep space rare earth mining?
