hard to deny.
looking at after hours trading and the options book yesterday and today. it really is hard to deny the rampant price control.
dragged out of a near 10% fall just in time to crush the entire options book.
makes you wonder if there is any point trading options at all.
even when you get it right theyll just force the price back to where they dont have to pay because they can and you cant.
makes you wonder why they keep blaming retail investors for overpriced tech stocks.. 🤷♂️

-Leprechaun- OP : watching puts gain beautiful value in all sessions until its nearly time that you can actually sell them. Then they take control.
its madness. why do we use this mechanism at all?
Creedance : I agree the amount in PUTS was like 4 to 5million. However, i think it was the shorts returning the borrowed shares which were bought up by the big players that pushed it higher.
and try again 
I had a couple of puts too was supposed to be in profit despite the IV crush - looked good premarket but yea…quick reversal.
the good part is the IV crush though - you use it to get a good price on calls or puts
-Leprechaun- OP Creedance : yea i cast out to the next week but it just feels like throwing good money after bad.
-Leprechaun- OP Creedance : i cant help but think about how $1 invested in AI at the moment has an infinite value.. they just keep passing the same money around to each other, common investors are asking questions about this but the big money just keeps pushing the hype… theyll blame retail in the end too.
Creedance : - yes miney is moving in circles but is it a bubble or is it fear created by big money
there are tons of data centers being built its a race to the top for now including a race among nations.
-Leprechaun- OP Creedance : while thats kind of true, i was doing some research the other day..
ai compute hasnt yet but will in time surpass crypto infrastructure. there will be a moment (falling crypto prices will stimulate this) where its much more profitable to shift to compute infrastructure.
i theorise that this moment will be the catalyst for both the burst and the last crypto crash.
compute will become the cable infrastructure in the dotcom bubble.
-Leprechaun- OP : think about the refinement that occurred in computers in hardware requirements or deepseeks dramatic reduction of compute power requirements.
also..
if general intelligence is achieved the whole push will stop.
