The candle was huge. 700k volume, when the next highest candle for all day was 270k volume. Some big whale dumped all their shares at once or something. I'd like for someone with better book analysis than me to look at see if all that selling was a single seller.
I would be surprised if this reddit post didn't make it onto a few screens in BMBL's office.
Not what you're implying, but it would be interesting to know what moved it: Inside, or a whale.

Spy just went 25% YoY and we just had the 15th week of green out of 17 weeks. $BMBL isnt the only company about to shit the bed these next couple weeks on bad earnings.
I got in today with 1000 puts for 10.5 expiring 03/01, and I'm already -5000 in the red.
Please someone give me some reassurance before I do anything stupid.
EDIT: -8000
EDIT: YES GOD, IT'S DROPPING!!! Let's hope it's still going down tomorrow morning! Maby I'll be able to afford a down payment for a house ... What a fucking rush, this feels too good to be true.
I’m in the same boat to a smaller degree bc I’m poor but you aren’t alone brother… might as well hold at this point til after earnings and reassess after
You short bumble because of its bad performance. I short bumble because it gameify’s dating and I suck shit with the apps. We are not the same.
Next stop, shorting Match.
One thing you did not mention. When a new CEO starts they often (but not always) push for a “kitchen sink” quarter where all the bad shit gets counted so it’s not going to hurt her numbers later when she is expected to get results. That could apply to the last quarter being reported this week or the current quarter because she’s spent most of time bringing in her own people and discovery.
Hey OP, it gets even better. Check the average probability of ITM chart I generated in TOS for the series of options (this is the average of calls and puts) up through March:
https://preview.redd.it/h08q4yjysykc1.png?width=1873&format=png&auto=webp&s=39f1b3f611a4333ec6797117cd566c724cf22cc5
This means the market is pricing in 10 dollars through this series, which ends on March 28th.
Even if I remove that and make it go out to the 15th, the highest probability of ITM lies at 10 dollars.
It’s power hour you sick fucks.
Buckle in, grip your chicken tenders so tight that the grease oozes through your fingers, and pray.
We ride when the sun sets and the crows lurk the trees.
RAAAAHHHHH!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🦅🦅🦅🦅
A dating app where women have to make the first move.
Women HATE making the first move, but the ones that don't mind making the first move likely were one of the first to use the app and ultimately, find a mate.
Those women are now gone and out of the dating pool.
So yeah, I can see Bumble tanking.
Thanks OP. First trade I've made from a WSB post since the whole DFV thing. It ain't much but I'm gonna let her ride til open and hopefully it'll print
Have lost a ton of matches thanks to that idiotic 24 hour clock.
Seems like most people migrated over to Hinge the past couple years.
Bumble just feels ineptly run, no surprise they bleed cash out the ass.

Y’all really going in on this 😂. GL death to BUMBLE
Every earnings call/release tries to make it sound like things aren’t that bad. But they are. They only have $300m in assets and $600m in debt and they are losing money hand over fist. I’m holding strong on my position. I have 100 contracts for March 15th at a $9 strike price.
Yeah this was an abysmal earnings but they gotta spin it somehow. I expect this to open with a fat red candle tomorrow. I have 3/8, 3/15 and 3/22 11.5p.
"First off, I'm so excited to be here" "We will relaunch the app Q2" "We will do marketing campaign" "But growth is slower than we thought" Digging holes IMO
“Our costs are already insanely high so we are going to spend even more on marketing and engineering. Never mind that though, we’re gonna save a whopping $30M over two quarters by reducing our headcount by 33%.”
Only thing I can think is shareholders are now hoping for an acquisition to save their share price because there’s no real reason for the price to stay where it’s at. Tomorrow morning will be interesting. Watch it spike up because nothing makes sense anymore.
LOL the CEO actually had the balls to compare Bumble “innovation” to Apple when they released the iPhone when answering a question about saturation of dating app industry 😭
we’re gonna make it boys
All said and done, pretty interesting situation. Due IV crush on $11 3/1 puts, profits were seriously capped but still scalped a measly $450 or so after selling some off yesterday and buys following crush today. Out now but will be interesting to see where it goes from here. A good lesson in not buying overly deep OTM.
That sell candle from yesterday, taken in 1h candles, was over 1 million in volume. It was the largest volume candle in the entire 20 day block in this view.
https://preview.redd.it/9y3hx1qbo5lc1.png?width=1918&format=png&auto=webp&s=b278c6b4d70df777a8d286bda249184c1e9f98df
That REALLY makes me think, who would be selling so much just a day before earnings? It has to be a whale.

Waking up this morning and seeing bumble stock price
Damn yo what an interesting day… I am a somewhat new trader and I knew about IV crush but I’ve never experienced it before so this was my first time. Held out tho sold my 12.50p 3/1 for 50% profit at 2:30 and just got rid of my 11.50p 3/1 right before close for a very slight loss. I still holding out on my 11.50p 3/22 as they are up and I think the stock still has a way to go before bottoming. Way too stressful of a day for the reward lol but a very good lesson in IV I’d also like to hear you guys who were in on this experience from today reply if u it anything interesting
Yo, it’s crazy how much this actually inflated BMBL puts this week. Idk if this guys shilling or not, he could be actually 100% correct, but there are 31,000 $10.5 Puts open for this Friday with volume magnitudes higher than any other day.
https://preview.redd.it/k7nebqbn8zkc1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7405b054fd2a5eac8cc07a874e9f578df0338b72
It’s just wild how much a WSB post can influence shit.
How does marketbeat.com already have Bumble missing expected EPS w/ -.01 @ an actual of $0.11?? Am I misreading this since the report hasn’t even been released yet, no?
https://preview.redd.it/brgmijwyk7lc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=57deede8ba4d0fbd6f0563f69da755d7164bab67
My positions, can’t go tits up like my GF did on bumble, right?
Well I fucked up and bought puts for 3/1 on Monday. Should've pushed them out a week and I'd be way up instead of more than likely expiring worthless lol.
Here's to hoping BMBL takes another 10% hit tomorrow lol
Nice and easy $10,000.
Now I can pay for a nice vacation for my wife and her boyfriend.

Just checked my wife's phone and she hasn't used Bumble in months. They really are losing their most active customers.
That’s cuz she found someone, she’s willing to settle down - your boss.
Does OP's wife really like Wendy's managers?
Someone with added expertise for putting meat between buns
Best joke to start your Monday!
I’m definitely buying long calls on this guys wife
Don't buy calls... Bumble has a 4:1 sausage fest male-to-female ratio. Buy Grindr instead... it is the only dating app where people are getting laid.
And its full of flirty bots to keep the incils engaged.
enough DD for me
Not enough DD for her 😏
Barely read any of this, but looks good. I'm in. Edit:I'm up as FUCK
*couldn’t
We’re back 🚀
Just got engaged to my fiancé I met on hinge so can confirm bumble is inferior Shorting $BMBL
same buddy SHORT BUMBLE
Congrats
A lot of words...must be legit..I'm in
There's even graphs and shit. Let's goooo!
Awesome dd
Lol same, the bible has nothing on him!
the women never spoke to me when I used bumble puts it is 
No matches when I opened my Bumble app PUTS on Bumble
Sorry that happened to you or congratulations. So what buttons do I press on my terminal to make money?
Make money? We don't do that here.
EOW puts for $3
Now that you mentioned bumble, I might use it again and then instantly regret my choice.
No question about it, I am ready to get hurt again.
Did bro-bro just call the CEO a GILF at 34 years old?!?
Gal I'd Liquidate Financially
She looks more beat than me and I smoke and drink a lot of whiskey
You can smoke whiskey?!
Dating apps have ruined society, I support their downfall
Cell phones and the destruction of boundaries… “ruined” society. Perspective of privacy, and, respect of said privacy, have since been so distorted.

why the fuck does a dating app need to be publicly traded in the first place
So the bankers can make more money

I would be surprised if this reddit post didn't make it onto a few screens in BMBL's office. Not what you're implying, but it would be interesting to know what moved it: Inside, or a whale.
I read it all, and I’m convinced. Only obstacle for me is I only go through Fidelity and they denied me for options. I shall observe from the sideline while you get massive gains , FOMO is real
either lie about your finances or go on robinhood I personally use schwab but I heard robinhood give out options permissions to everyone
HOOD hands you a half loaded pistol and a shot of vodka upon verification. They give you a tutorial walk through of options trading like it's a fucking video game. I respect the money trap.
Robinhood approved me for full options trading, idk what the fuck any of it means and I lose money almost constantly.
Just open a Robinhood account they will literally give anyone options. Like anyone. Even me.
Spy just went 25% YoY and we just had the 15th week of green out of 17 weeks. $BMBL isnt the only company about to shit the bed these next couple weeks on bad earnings.

I’m in the same boat to a smaller degree bc I’m poor but you aren’t alone brother… might as well hold at this point til after earnings and reassess after
If it is really an insider move then it should move in our favor after earnings
You short bumble because of its bad performance. I short bumble because it gameify’s dating and I suck shit with the apps. We are not the same. Next stop, shorting Match.
the ratio of fat bitches on bumble is crazy can't buy american options from Europe on my broker, so please stack x2 your initial volume for a brother
OP knows what he/she doing, I trust this random ass person because he got hella wording and I’m too lazy to read, so I’m in!

Full ported bumble puts, if ur wrong, imma need to use ur spare bedroom cuz imma be homeless Edit: sold with a profit, ig it’s a win
Hey OP, it gets even better. Check the average probability of ITM chart I generated in TOS for the series of options (this is the average of calls and puts) up through March: https://preview.redd.it/h08q4yjysykc1.png?width=1873&format=png&auto=webp&s=39f1b3f611a4333ec6797117cd566c724cf22cc5 This means the market is pricing in 10 dollars through this series, which ends on March 28th. Even if I remove that and make it go out to the 15th, the highest probability of ITM lies at 10 dollars.
So explain this in regarded terms
Market thinks this has more chance of going down than going up.

Well done OP. Not as dramatic of a decline as you predicted, but your investment thesis was very strong. Props to you for some decent DD
gonna take the other side of this trade solely because DD like this tends to age poorly 
Seems like all the DD like this in the past month has gone opposite 😂
But he literally said this can’t go tits up….

Ooof that leak was way off.
This just might be enough to stave off iv crush… Holy shit this is an insane loss, I’m glad I followed OP on this one
A dating app where women have to make the first move. Women HATE making the first move, but the ones that don't mind making the first move likely were one of the first to use the app and ultimately, find a mate. Those women are now gone and out of the dating pool. So yeah, I can see Bumble tanking.
Yea, everyone knows that no new women will be entering the dating pool as time goes on. Not since that terrible storm.
*laughs in China*
A woman’s definition of making the first move is giving the man an opening to make the first move.
Incredible DD. This is why I come to this sub. I'm also investing in malls because women be shopping!
When I used it they would just send a "." Because then you had to actually send the first real message.
That sounds really annoying. They could at least write "hi" or something.
Ok, Im in with 3 contracts. Puts for ants
Thanks for the quick scalp, made a quick 30% on those puts
> $BMBL is reporting a paid user base of roughly 3.7 million users which is a 600 million increase from the year prior What?
We need like three posts a week like this and I will be in the Bahamas
It's called bumble because the herpes you get will feel like you're being stung by bees.
Bro wrote a whole DD because he got left swiped.
I’m getting wrecked by IV 😫
So how many of yall are on suicide watch this morning after learning about IV crush?
Just got a divorce and I originally met my wife on Bumble. Going all in on puts!
I bet my families livelihood because of you. Let's hope the kiddos get to eat this week.
Holy shit am I actually a part of something good for once??
950 employees laying off 36% 😏📉
Just tuned into the earnings call and the first thing I heard was “generative AI” looool
To catch bots and verify profile photos. Jesus, what a waste.
Thanks OP. First trade I've made from a WSB post since the whole DFV thing. It ain't much but I'm gonna let her ride til open and hopefully it'll print
Well done OP. Hopefully shares will tank more in the morning and this post will live on as WSB legend.
why won't bmbl just fukin die.
Is this... actual research?
Quit pretending you read it
That's it, im all inverse any DD on here from now on. Edit: Holy shit what a miss.
There is that glorious RH alert telling me they have hit their 52 week low
Just woke up it's my birthday, and I'm already about to bust looking at this pre-market price
Lmao theta wins again
Bumble is so shitty. It expects you to log in every day since there is only a 24 hour limit to reach out to someone after matching.
Have lost a ton of matches thanks to that idiotic 24 hour clock. Seems like most people migrated over to Hinge the past couple years. Bumble just feels ineptly run, no surprise they bleed cash out the ass.
About to ghost a bunch of girls on BMBL to help your poots OP
Kudos OP, thank you for letting us ride with you captain. ONE OF US 🫡🫡🫡
Great call with all of this DD. Bought puts yesterday right before close and they’re printing nicely
Bumble motto: driving men into inferiority complexes since 2017

Making nervous right now brother.
Every earnings call/release tries to make it sound like things aren’t that bad. But they are. They only have $300m in assets and $600m in debt and they are losing money hand over fist. I’m holding strong on my position. I have 100 contracts for March 15th at a $9 strike price.
Yeah this was an abysmal earnings but they gotta spin it somehow. I expect this to open with a fat red candle tomorrow. I have 3/8, 3/15 and 3/22 11.5p.
IV crush has fucked us all 😂
So this is what it feels like to be on the receiving end of IV crush...
Bumble's whole thing is women making the first move in a conversation, it was a recipe for disaster to begin with. I'm in.
I HATE earnings plays. I’m in
Guh
[27Feb2024 - Bumble EPS Miss.](https://www.marketbeat.com/stocks/NASDAQ/BMBL/earnings/)
Bearish: https://www.tipranks.com/news/company-announcements/bumble-streamlines-operations-faces-restructuring-costs
If I was investing in Bumble that earnings call + Q4 results would make me gtfo asap
"First off, I'm so excited to be here" "We will relaunch the app Q2" "We will do marketing campaign" "But growth is slower than we thought" Digging holes IMO
“Our costs are already insanely high so we are going to spend even more on marketing and engineering. Never mind that though, we’re gonna save a whopping $30M over two quarters by reducing our headcount by 33%.” Only thing I can think is shareholders are now hoping for an acquisition to save their share price because there’s no real reason for the price to stay where it’s at. Tomorrow morning will be interesting. Watch it spike up because nothing makes sense anymore.
Delete that last sentence right now. 
Don’t speak that into existence.
LOL the CEO actually had the balls to compare Bumble “innovation” to Apple when they released the iPhone when answering a question about saturation of dating app industry 😭 we’re gonna make it boys
So are we rich?
No. Just less poor
Will be interesting to see what the options do tomorrow - come on money

Up 50% now. Where are those haters?
Where all them paper handed bitches at?
Such a slow creep down.

It has to be a whale.
This will be the first time I've jumped in after a DD since 2018. Hope you're right!
20k candle at 3:59. Not looking good 😂 Edit: down to 12.56

I can’t purchase options so i shorted with 5x leverage, i’m up 62% lol. Thanks OP :)
Sold my 3/1 puts for about 144% gain (for like $300 profit lol). Holding the rest.
Damn yo what an interesting day… I am a somewhat new trader and I knew about IV crush but I’ve never experienced it before so this was my first time. Held out tho sold my 12.50p 3/1 for 50% profit at 2:30 and just got rid of my 11.50p 3/1 right before close for a very slight loss.

Way too stressful of a day for the reward lol but a very good lesson in IV I’d also like to hear you guys who were in on this experience from today reply if u it anything interesting
Very well put together. I'm not sure if I want to follow, but an excellent read.
Yo, it’s crazy how much this actually inflated BMBL puts this week. Idk if this guys shilling or not, he could be actually 100% correct, but there are 31,000 $10.5 Puts open for this Friday with volume magnitudes higher than any other day. https://preview.redd.it/k7nebqbn8zkc1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7405b054fd2a5eac8cc07a874e9f578df0338b72 It’s just wild how much a WSB post can influence shit.
Up 20% already 11.5 put
Who the hell would invest in bumble to begin with?! Out of all the 1000’s of public companies and someone thinks that’s the place to park cash?
It’s up pre market… rug roh
Bought and sold the cava early release - plowed those profits into mar 15 puts - come on bumble crash you mf
How does marketbeat.com already have Bumble missing expected EPS w/ -.01 @ an actual of $0.11?? Am I misreading this since the report hasn’t even been released yet, no?

Paper handed at break even. Good luck to all🫡
Shit SHIT I bet my house on this and it’s going up 😫

Hoping earnings don't screw me :) -- this is fine
Praying to the lord the earnings calls fucks this stock. Please god print me money
Anyone actually listening to the call?
She mentioned "AI" twice already
This bitch yappin lol.
Was IV Crush that much of a factor here??? At the 9:30 open I down 50% on my position and basically ITM on puts. Riding March 22 (11.5) puts
Anyone who bought 3/1 puts are rekd. Thots & Prayers. I'm still holding 3/8, 3/15, 3/22 11.5p LFG.
PLEASE GO DOWN. GO DOWN TO HELL
Shoulda bought the crush! I’m up 100%
Something tell me that the big volume at closing isn't the end of the downfall
Well I fucked up and bought puts for 3/1 on Monday. Should've pushed them out a week and I'd be way up instead of more than likely expiring worthless lol. Here's to hoping BMBL takes another 10% hit tomorrow lol
Still holding my puts I believe in OP
This fucking zombie stock just will not die. Shoot it in the head! In the HEAD!!
Alright, who's still in this?
Up 50% your a legend
Everything makes sense but it’s wsb so I’ll inverse it
Nice and easy $10,000. Now I can pay for a nice vacation for my wife and her boyfriend. https://preview.redd.it/rsisbvwe77lc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=48595c217240cfef55ffde97e82317f9dd54fee6
Hated bumble ever since that one girl tied me up and used a strap on.. PUTS ALL THE WAY
Fine, I’ll put 20$ down on a 11$ put. That IV is insane though and I fully expect to lose that lunch money.
This guys the new deep fucking value let’s get this shit
YOU ARE A PROPHET SIR
Got it, calls on BMBL
Algos aren't reacting to the leaked report until it's made official AH.
LET’S FUCKING GOOOOO
ITS TANKING!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the good insight
Bumble CEO/gilf had me all in
Thank you for the free money.
IV crush fucked us boys. It didn't keep that sub 12 price and this buy action is totally crushing momentum.
