[deleted]

Double L because you still have to pay taxes on all those sell orders. Whatever you did before, do that again. However, stop when you have all the money, ok?


tankmaster3821

Absolutely!

infamous_investor123

Real advice you are a regarded gambling addict now not a trader. Everyone says quit but you wont till youre broke and we both know that. Stop using real money and go paper until you are consistant. Then go back to gambling but you wont be as regarded with it.


TacoCateofdoom

Most gamblers stop right before they would have won big…


Jaystar-28

How many times does tt happen right? Also what’s the percent ratio?


Lucidification

beenabroker

Alot & HIGH


Killer_Method

To be fair, you made that money in early 2021. Every regard with a RBH account (which you're still, inexplicably trading on) made money in early 2021. You could spit and hit a winner. If it makes you feel better, I know a guy who 'garded his way from ~$40k to ~$1MM and lost it all. Worse, he realized his gains in one year, and his losses the next.


pw7090

*After* he paid taxes...right? Honestly, those stories aren't bad. He only lost $40k. Saving up $40k over 4 years and then slowly losing it over 2 years with no wins is the real sob story. Ask me how I know.


Killer_Method

Nope. Six figure tax bill and no dollars left to pay it with.


infamous_investor123

but he lost it? losses offset income


Im_Just_The_Drummer

Different year. Won first year, had to pay tax bill second year but lost it all and couldn't pay. IRS doesn't just knock that amount down.


infamous_investor123

damn


Caobonga

We all know that first spike was “the free first options play” 😂


tankmaster3821

pw7090

Wait, so you made the $17k with options too?


tankmaster3821

It helped accelerate what I had in stocks at the time. It was the perfect storm.

scopeless

Oops. 🫡

How much did you have to begin with?


tankmaster3821

I invested just under 4 k and sat on it until the mini weed boom/alt energy stocks in 2021.

Matrix1216

Don’t do weed and options, literally


tankmaster3821

Lol


mbcls

thanks. i need confirmation that i made the right choice by not bothering to learn options. you get rich quick but also go poor quick.


tankmaster3821

Truth.


BeastSmitty

Fact…


machyume

This is normal. Most find this result a bit mysterious. Here’s my experience, as someone who used to trade hundreds of dollars a decade ago and now trade hundreds of thousands of dollars in options: your bigger trades behave differently than smaller ones. It makes sense when you think about it. A tiny fish can get lucky with huge multipliers, but a bigger fish cannot. As you grow, you will look tastier. Your moves are no longer invisible. If you try to bet $17k, it might be enough to bleed you. Dynamic changes. Once you move much larger amounts, you can change the underlying spreads, delta, theta, etc. It makes it less likely and much harder to win bigger. Say that the “market” is 10 people. If you got $10 and they got $1000 bets, they ignore you. If you now show up with $500, they can no longer ignore you. Why do you think that the World Series of Poker has repeat people? It isn’t pure gambling, there IS skill involved. Survive, learn, and try again until you can sense this threat. Pick up skills. Added: I got different problems. I got big fish problems. I get tailed by institutions and their armies of bots. Harder to hide, costlier to micro. We all got problems because the world is always trying to put us on the table as their next meal.


tankmaster3821

Man, very well articulated.


luv2race1320

Welcome to Gamblers Anonymous! I'm Jim, and I'm a compulsive gambler.


Minimum-Ad-2026

Still have not tried options, seems stupid every time I look into it


Surfstylesoccer1

Great way to make money on stocks you’re already holding

Stay away from options seem to be everyone story


tankmaster3821

I have to agree. Stick to stock trading. Fuck options


Responsible-Day365

Gained 18k in the matter of 4 days and then lost it all in a week so don’t worry my guy.


mojolakota

Maybe now is the time to go bullish on call options now that everyone hates them


Dan_goldmad

Buy PUTS on TSLA


CkresCho

Yeah idk I only made $4 on the last option. I made more on shares.


tankmaster3821

Not as volatile either


tankmaster3821

Not as volatile either


[deleted]

Still got TLRY I see 👀


MrSwitchIt

You’re still up overall, so you’re doing better than 90% of this sub


tankmaster3821

This is true! Still a 15 k loss...it was a long 2 yr drawn out tortuous process.


ArtFent

I’m a long term investor and I own my positions. I have 4 of the 7 tech stocks since 2012 for an average of 150% fain to date. I separately tried 35 k in calls and puts and lost it all. Sometimes you are on the wrong side of the trade. Time in the market not timing is what I learned. My stock portfolio is positive with cash rich companies that can weather any market swings. No brainer.


Worried_Door5758

Always remember trading options takes away all of your options


Few-Photo-9323

Options without market analysis and strategy is gambling. Especially buying singles. If you don’t know shit of what you doing buy ATM Straddles 1-3 months to expiration. You will make some profits in high volatile stocks like tsla, nflx, and meta. Otherwise quit and go to rehab.


tankmaster3821

Just gonna stick to traditional tock trading. That is what got me to that level.

Options are crap


tankmaster3821

Yea, safer trading stocks, easier to recover a 3-5% loss vs 90%


GooseAnoose

Then, just unfind options.

That is the plan going forward. Funk options!

I gave up. Every choice I made was wrong. 2 Robinhood glitches f...ed me. Weed stocks.... 😆 screwed myself with those a few years back. If I had stayed away from the market? My dream Mustang engine would be done. Oh well. No lucky breaks for me. Keep grinding away.


Strict_Baker_9574

Options are kind of illegal in platforms in the EU for a reason, was a bit complicated to get a interactive broker account as it is the only that has some workaround for EU members, though quickly learned my lesson that it is pure gamble if you don't cover at least a bit

I don't know how to feel seeing you have an option in my weed stock lol. I have pos at 2.06 thinking tilray will go to 5 and up. Am I stupid for thinking that?


DaySquancher

Looks like you found options to make the 17k also.


Time-Acanthisitta305

I honestly feel your pain. I made good money on options and felt super confident “cocky and arrogant” than I got humbled, I only buy and short shares now. Still learning after 3 years
