I had been using moo moo to experiment with strategies I've learn such as scalping, and options strategies such as WHEEL and LEAPS, since the fees are much lower. The biggest learning I had was from using options strategies for my investments. This is my story of how I mitigated a bad timing trade with $Palantir(PLTR.US)$.
So when the stock price had started to drop hard, I found the price to be attractive and wanted to get some shares of it. so I sold a put option at 22, collecting usd120 of premium. 22 was a price I'm willing pay for the shares anyway so why not earn more from the premium.
However the share price keeps dropping as the interest rate and inflation risk kept the whole market in a sea of red. the stock kept dropping day after day and finally today it is at about 18. I was going to have to buy 100 PLTR at 22 this Friday due to the put option I sold. Today I decided that buying at 22 isn't a good deal for me so I decided to roll down and out instead. So I bought back the put and sold another put with a strike of 21 instead. doing so I earned another usd107 (100 from a lower strike price and 7 from premiums), on top of the usd120 I've gotten earlier on.
With that I have given PLTR some time to recover. If the price is still unfavourable when it is near expiration, I can roll it again and get more premium, while not being "forced" to buy the share at a "bad" price. Or I can just let the option get exercised and buy the share at 21 instead. Accounting for the premium I recieve that means the shares technically cost only 19.8 (21.00-1.20).
All in all, I learnt and experienced the power of applying option strategies to help enhance my investment journey. Hope it will help you too.
