Thanks for your submission! To keep things interesting, we want to see big gains and big losses! So we've set the following thresholds for Gain, Loss, and YOLO flaired posts: * YOLO posts must be a minimum of $10,000 of options or $25,000 of shares and recently opened. * Gain / Loss posts must show realized gains or losses of more than $2,500 for options or $5,000 for shares. We want to see the actual trade. What you got in at, what you sold at. Then tell us why you did it. Give us the story of why you're a fucking genius (or idiot). This is what a great post looks like: [$17.2K Gain on AMZN](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/wb5m4o/not_too_shabby_172k_gain_amzn/) - OP described his gain in the title, has a clear screenshot showing both the entry and exit, meaning his gains were locked in, and they explained their reasoning in the comments and what they learned. All around a great post! Here are examples of what could get your post removed: * [$300,000 SDC Loss. Still not selling](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/wpm9am/over_300000_unrealized_loss_sdc_not_selling/) - Even though this is a tremendous loss and something worth posting about, **the position hasn't been closed yet**. Here are examples of amazing posts which could have been even better: * [$75,000 DDOG Loss.](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/unsrey/loss_porn_ddog_call/) - This is a great post and one that won't get removed. However, the OP could have talked about *why* they entered the position in the first place, what their target price was, and what went wrong. OP didn't stick around in the comments to answer any questions. * [$1.1MM Loss, No details](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/lxm6wt/hold_me_1100000_loss/) - OP simply posted a screenshot of their overall portfolio balance. It's definitely a big loss, but it's not that interesting without OP talking about what trades they were in and why. OP didn't answer most questions in the comments which left many readers speculating on what happened. --- All that being said, we are here to help.

hmm.. then why do i keep buying shits I see in FB/IG..

I get on for like 2 min every other day maybe longer. There’s nothing good on fb

Unless fb changes something big soon the only users of it will be bots and scammers. I’m sure something to replace it is already in the works. I give it a year or two max before it shits the bed.

Worst case you sell calls against your position. Nothing in either Tesla or Googl earnings stated NVDA would have any slow down with spending. Tesla actually was bullish stating there is such a demand it’s impossible to even get their chips. Goog said they are expanding their capex spend. Like the play, see you at 140-150

They really should follow AAPL strat and get on the A.I. bandwagon. A.I. chips are the future.

this is how you use FB instead of getting used

Solid play. I've got about $100K in Jan 2025 $120 Calls. I meant to load up a bit more calls this week and next. I had this premonition companies weren't going to meet lofty expectations. But I fomo'd into AMZN $200 calls when it dipped to $190. God, I'm such a dipshit. Anyway, my psychic powers told me 130s by mid-August and $140 after earnings. Based on that I picked up some smaller option positions that expire before earnings. With the recent downturn, not counting on them. After earnings, to the moon!

How were you measuring attribution for downstream outcomes in that large of a marketing spend on YouTube? We run a similar size marketing budget (assuming you have similar spends on other major channels too) and people on our team wanted to scale YouTube off of anecdotes of pre/post. As it scaled it looked more mixed though, so we stopped. Attribution there is really difficult, with such a large marketing machine with so many moving parts across many channels, and when YouTube direct conversions are so low. It of course drives indirect conversions, but how much of that would have come anyway in the counterfactual without YouTube impressions? Did you do A/B on geo splits and cut YouTube leave/eliminate spend in equivalent geos, check impact on the rest of top of funnel? We did that on FB to calibrate our understanding of the economics that bounce back into indirect conversions but I don't see anything about people doing that kind of experiment with YouTube, seems to be less mature of a platform. I guess we could manually draw geo bounds and do it ourself but seems annoying. Without that I don't see how you could have the level of confidence necessary to invest $35M in the channel, at least by the standards for confidence we try to use in perf marketing when we allocate that much capital. You might also just have more risk tolerance than us though.

since GOOGL bit the dust, thinking MSFT has the edge.
