Consistency is a key

Could make much more today but better than almost losing everything.  Was in 484 calls from early morning sold during breakout but much more cheaper than the high of the day.
6 minutes after i sold contracts skyrocketed and with the same speed they dropped. Still I was able to catch the good sell price.
Also had a 265 Tesla put from yesterday, sold little too late today, was too greedy in the morning and didn’t sell, when it was over 5 bucks per contract. Waited for a miracle lol still got decent profit.

  • Handiyanan : Do you think sticking to a strategy pays off more than chasing home runs on volatile days like this?

  • Ahh_gee_Joey : Hold up — you sold QQQ calls right before they spiked and still nailed a solid exit? That’s not luck, that’s skill. How do you stay so calm during wild swings? [undefined]

  • Tliet : You held that Tesla put way too long but still walked away with profit… classic options grind.

  • Xzibit OP Handiyanan : i started over and over again after losing shit ton of money in the last few years lol the only reason to that because i was always expecting more , i would stick to a strategy but the greediness would eat me from inside eventually , i would change my original limit sell , when i saw that contracts are doing great. Consequencies of this inevitable. Never ever chasing anything anymore, my plan now to stick to the original goal. If i have a big position in 0DTE contracts , i try to sell almost immediately, tops three hours no matter what. If i buy something that expires in few days , its always volatile stocks like Meta, Tsla etc., i try to sell immediately. Only on rear occasions i would swing it overnight, if i have like 3k position. Otherwise i sell almost immediately too. Had too many mistakes in the past that i cant afford to repeat. I started over with 7.1k , exactly 7 trading days ago and thrned it to 41k. However, i overtraded during one day last week and got myself into good faith violation but i was really feeling it that day haha Not that i would reccomend it to anyone else, overtrading is also one of the biggest issues. Better to have 1-2 trades per days and call it a day.  So yeah, sticking to a plan is the best course of action. I also used to always buy something right away at open. With QQQ and Spy options i learned thag its better to wait it out. In few hours contracts get cheaper and there is always more clearer direction of where its going, never buying too early.

  • Xzibit OP Ahh_gee_Joey : oh i dont do wild swings (at least anymore lol). i was able to grow my account quickly recently and i try not to swing anything, if i absolutely have to it would be somwhere around 3k position. But i was confident in this one, just because tuesday was a day before Powell speaks, i was expecting market to pull back. Given that contract expires on Friday and it was only Monday, i held. Otherwise , if it was bigger position and closer to expiration i wouldnt sleep lol So i am not doing thag anymore. Lost too much of sleep and money before 😆

  • Xzibit OP Tliet : Better to walk away sooner than later 👌Even if was red , i wouldnt swing it for a ssecond night , learned my lessons 🥲

  • 財寶 : powell is going to speak again tonight do you think market will pullback

  • Xzibit OP 財寶 : No one knows. My assumption is if he cuts rates market will pump, if he wont cut rates - market will dump. I believe he speaks at 2:30 pm ET, very close to 4 pm. There gonna be definetly some crazy moves and volatility right before he atarts talking and even more when he says “Good afternoon” lol But that would be just shortsellers throwing money left and right. We will be to see the real direction , when people digest the info , somehwere next 1-2 trading days. I personally, gonna gamble with 8k  and bet on both sides around 2 p.m. , trading QQQ or SPY and keep both positions till the day ends. I was waiting for this moment , when i can take advantage of it. Winner side will make up the losses for a loser side and on top of it there gonna be profit. As long as i choose the right contracts. Not reccomending to do the same 😀But i am pretty sure it will be slow day with flat market for tbe most of the day before 2p.m.
