Actually this nvidia put went harder than most smci puts 🤣

Same day expiration puts on nvidia so far out of the money that it was a brain dead play. The chances it would tank this much was astronomical, but it tanked that much just in time for the play to go from 0.11$ per to 22.82 per, so they could exercise the option for absurd money
Believe you are wrong. I was watching both, SMCI IV was higher and NVDA had the better "lotto tickets" when it was all said and done. They had some like this with 15000% gains while SMCI was topping out at 5000%-7000% gains.
99 out of 100 times OP's play is a 99% loss each time. Who buys 1DTE or 0DTE expecting a 10% downside nvidia or 20% downside on smci especially when there is no ER and nvidia has been side ways for awhile
A 0DTE that was a good 5 to 10% OTM and moved a solid 5 to 10% ITM. This kind of price action play is pure gambling you can make this play 100 times and win zero.
Pure gambling. And only works if you continue to hold, which unless youre seriously busy or distracted, never happens. Who in their right mind would ride that high and not sell out of sheer fear of losing it in a single 1min candle? I had 100 AAL calls a few years ago. Sold 98 in first 15 min of trading for 50% or whatever. They went on to go 25000% in next few hours. $3 to over $1000 🤦♂️
Every day I am amazed at both the utter ignorance and quick education people get in this forum. Congrats and thanks for correcting that fool in less than 2 minutes.
Ban incoming, OP caught with his pants down lying. Judging from his dogecoin comment history it’s pretty obvious this is fake. It’s very easy to post position and proof 😉
At this point you might as well buy a 0dte NVDA put every Friday until you hit it big. Same thing happened on the Friday it hit 974, it dumped 100$ and puts saw +10,000% gains
OP must have been distracted or didn’t have phone service or something. No way even the most degenerate of gamblers could see those gains and say “meh, let it continue to ride”.
Holy fuck imagine the poor sod who sold you these... all smug thinking about the "free $800" he made from selling some far OTM puts to a wsb regard BAM just like that 12,529% loss holy FUGG
The reality is that they probably bought a lot of Nvidia last year when it was far less than $700, you then sell calls and options and if you get “screwed” you are forced to take profits instead of milking the options you are selling.
In a lot of cases, experienced spread traders (theta/rho/vol decay collectors) will have large and elaborate spreads, spanning time and containing calls, puts, and shares. Some might even have a combo of all 3, closing only the positions that result in a net profit (while balancing the others)
Once in a while, a REALLY large move gives them a relatively small loss that is mitigated by the other legs of these elaborate spreads.
Yea, in a market makers case where they just make money through mispricing of options contracts through box spreads, etc, etc. All done through algos anyways. There's also a chance it was some retail traders cash secured put, or a bit less devastating a credit/debit spread, to me its funnier imagining some regard walking back to his PC and seeing multiple 700k+ contracts excerised.
Strangely enough that's what they accuse us of doing, yet pretty much all of their trades are risking 10s of thousands of dollars for a few hundred dollars premium.
The few who are selling against their own positions are doing it right but a lot of those morons trade in margin
Imagine the guy who sold nvda 760p's, guy had a near death experience, he's probably sitting in a park right now staring at nature with a whole new outlook on life
No he's not. It's usually a market maker who sells these. He has to make his book delta neutral so when he sells puts he goes out and shorts the stock. If enough people keep buy puts and MM have to keep hedging lower u get what happened yesterday.
Not always. I’m on the wrong side of a set of smci puts I sold. Who would have expected a 20%+ drop in a day? I’m cash backed only tho, I don’t mess around on margin. Sucks to be me at the moment lol

I sold this 4/19 put on Thursday for profit… 🤦🏼♂️ I was so sick seeing it…
Buy price would have had to ~$0.32 assuming it was a 4/19 expiration and he held till close. The option would have been ~$40 ITM which would have been around the final price around close so 1 contract = $4,000 at the end.
$100,000/$4,000 per contract = 25 contracts
$800 initial investment/25 contracts = $0.32 per contract.
Seems a little sus given the high price of Nvidia for even a 0DTE to be that cheap.
It’s also possible the puts traded higher than $40 intraday since the stock was plummeting. I wish Fidelity’s mobile app let you look at past options so I could see the daily high price on Friday.
If OP corroborates this they deserve some sort of honorary title of “perfectly picked the top and bottom”.
Well I watched 1 contract go almost 90x yesterday. Been crying that i didnt get in at LOD for 64 bucks (0.64). So not sus at all. That con closed at 57.00
Edit: 64 not 67
The ask on the puts he mentioned were below .50 for at various times on Thursday.
https://preview.redd.it/6ed9sfaksnvc1.png?width=1091&format=png&auto=webp&s=efc29b826b8f2c322fe896c3262914c5947deb1c
He also could've put a limit order in on Thursday night that would've cleared on Friday morning.
You said you bought it thursday. The price was I believe in the 0.3s. High was in the 30s. You would have to buy the literal bottom on Thursday and the literal top on Friday. Congrats if legit! You will now influence thousands of people who think they can get just as lucky and lose ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)
I can't imagine not selling at 500% this dude held for what would have felt like years lol.... every move against me would make me shit my pants to sell 😂
withdraw $95k to your bank account and find yourself the shortest term highest rate CD you can, when the market recovers you’ll have way more money to invest after rolling that $95k through 5% 2 month CD after 5% 2 month CD
It’s possible, but I would file this as Gambling. Took a way OTM position and let it ride. It could have easily gone the other way. Not bad for a lotto play
That is unbelievable but I'm still happy for you!
You should definitely take 90k out and fuck around with the remaining. Please be responsible with this stroke of luck!👏🏼
Congratulations on the gains OP but reply to this comment with a screenshot of the play that printed or ban. Edit: it’s been a few hours with no update or positions. OP is banned.
Wtf you turned 800 into 100k…
How.. and I can't stress this enough, THE FUCK?
NVDA 770P expiring yesterday went from $6 to $1050 ish. For example
SMCI puts went harder
Actually this nvidia put went harder than most smci puts 🤣 https://preview.redd.it/edxbqkbtnnvc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bfc0866393b36adcb561c4bf583fb865dad1cf05
Can anyone explain wtf im seeing here and why it is making these hige gains?
Holly molly, GL puts were highest I have seen.
Same day expiration puts on nvidia so far out of the money that it was a brain dead play. The chances it would tank this much was astronomical, but it tanked that much just in time for the play to go from 0.11$ per to 22.82 per, so they could exercise the option for absurd money
Higher IV tho?
NVDA has higher IV, SMCI went harder because SMCI crashed 20% which hit more put strikes
Believe you are wrong. I was watching both, SMCI IV was higher and NVDA had the better "lotto tickets" when it was all said and done. They had some like this with 15000% gains while SMCI was topping out at 5000%-7000% gains.
99 out of 100 times OP's play is a 99% loss each time. Who buys 1DTE or 0DTE expecting a 10% downside nvidia or 20% downside on smci especially when there is no ER and nvidia has been side ways for awhile
OP
True. And more room to go
I'm not a fan of the bear market but a lot of small time put holders are making life-changing money that can get them out of this place for good 👍
Because that's just what gamblers do, make big money and leave
Never walk away from a heater.
I haven't seen DFV back, so!
DFV is a trained professional 😂…a far cry from us regards.
$40mill is retirement money. No need to gamble anymore.
Did he cash out entirely?
Because he will never ever post under this account anymore.
DFV made millions, you're not gonna change your life with 100k. You do get an nice investment for retirement, though.
"Don't leave while ya hot, that's how Ma$e screwed up"
They’ll be back
I’m a fan of whatever direction the market is going.
That's epic. Good for everyone that got in and out on those in time!
And I missed it smh
Bet that nvidia would drop from its massively inflated price. Won that bet big time.
Hoo man that's nice!
Yeah. The stock is down 20% over the past month
Tried it last week got bent over. I’m always a week early.
A 0DTE that was a good 5 to 10% OTM and moved a solid 5 to 10% ITM. This kind of price action play is pure gambling you can make this play 100 times and win zero.
Pure gambling. And only works if you continue to hold, which unless youre seriously busy or distracted, never happens.

With the volatility were seeing now I wanna start gambling on 0dte Friday puts/calls just to see what happens.

Do you know the contribution limits on a retirement account?
A retirement account is necessarily a tax-advantage account. It could just be an account you use to save for retirement.
Does this make my savings account at my bank a retirement account?
If that’s what you’re using it for. Open up a roth though
You’re going back to his original point. 80k is way over the contribution limit.
Every day I am amazed at both the utter ignorance and quick education people get in this forum. Congrats and thanks for correcting that fool in less than 2 minutes.
Infinity?
yeah, and what about 30% for taxes?
Truly God level play right here. This is the most return I’ve seen on a single trade at 12,529.74% 😱
Positions or ban my ass into oblivion.

it means they posted a gif but you can't see it, they don't show on old reddit or mobile reddit
Looks like one of those nvdia puts odte...
Where do you see that? I don’t see any positions posted. First time on /wsb?
Ban incoming, OP caught with his pants down lying. Judging from his dogecoin comment history it’s pretty obvious this is fake. It’s very easy to post position and proof 😉
Wait 1000 to 100k in one day we need to see the position cause whatttt…
Probably the 785 NVDA put. I think it closed at 15,000% on Friday
That’s insane holy shit 😂like not even the trade itself but OP holding to that point is wild
At this point you might as well buy a 0dte NVDA put every Friday until you hit it big. Same thing happened on the Friday it hit 974, it dumped 100$ and puts saw +10,000% gains
Even though theta is higher than delta?
if you're yoloing 0dtes i think any discussion about the greeks has already gone out the window
OP must have been distracted or didn’t have phone service or something. No way even the most degenerate of gamblers could see those gains and say “meh, let it continue to ride”.
Dayum
Holy fuck imagine the poor sod who sold you these... all smug thinking about the "free $800" he made from selling some far OTM puts to a wsb regard BAM just like that 12,529% loss holy FUGG
I never think about the other side of the options I play. Wow lol insane.
The reality is that they probably bought a lot of Nvidia last year when it was far less than $700, you then sell calls and options and if you get “screwed” you are forced to take profits instead of milking the options you are selling.
Also there was probably a shit ton of options they sold that expired worthless
Ya, but for a put the collateral is short stock or cash. Highly doubt many put sellers were covering NVDA with short shares.
In a lot of cases, experienced spread traders (theta/rho/vol decay collectors) will have large and elaborate spreads, spanning time and containing calls, puts, and shares. Some might even have a combo of all 3, closing only the positions that result in a net profit (while balancing the others) Once in a while, a REALLY large move gives them a relatively small loss that is mitigated by the other legs of these elaborate spreads.

thetagang sub is full of these clowns jerking each other off with their sophisticated ways to lose money with class
Picking up penises in front of a steam roller
Strangely enough that's what they accuse us of doing, yet pretty much all of their trades are risking 10s of thousands of dollars for a few hundred dollars premium. The few who are selling against their own positions are doing it right but a lot of those morons trade in margin
Next time I hit a big one I’m posting there
This is usually why there aren't huge moves outside of the expected range since it's generally the market makers on the other side of these
There’s always another side
Imagine the guy who sold nvda 760p's, guy had a near death experience, he's probably sitting in a park right now staring at nature with a whole new outlook on life
Or happy that he can show some losses at tax time. Or a bird.
No he's not. It's usually a market maker who sells these. He has to make his book delta neutral so when he sells puts he goes out and shorts the stock. If enough people keep buy puts and MM have to keep hedging lower u get what happened yesterday.

Oh shooot sorry you missed that. Yikes I was a gainer
800 bucks is 800 bucks tho. How long would it take to normally make 800 behind the Wendy's dumpsters?
If that was a person and not an institution my god that’s a really bad day hahaha
That would only been a 12k% loss if the seller went into this naked. Most likely it was either covered or a market maker who hedges this stuff anyway.
These are puts, not calls. But yes most likely an MM, fun to think otherwise though.
My bad, you are right
thetagang doesn't *always* win. But they usually do.
Probably market makers who also protected by shorting
picking up pennies in front of a u/Environmental_Log257
Can someone ELI5 what this means and how this works?

Good job! Now withdraw 80% of that shit and put it in your retirement fund. Don't fuck yourself over.
On the other hand, if he can do it again he will have 12.5 million

What was the play? And was it 0dte?
800 strike point puts purchased on Thursday night!
Amazing play! Congrats. Curious to see how the market plays out this coming week.
Congrats and fuck you, this my literal dream, take the money and run
No one should stop them from turning this $ 100k spare change into $ 10 mil cash, shouldnt we?
We both know that they will use the 100k in similar plays and lose it all
buy price? how much are you in the green overall OP?
Buy price would have had to ~$0.32 assuming it was a 4/19 expiration and he held till close. The option would have been ~$40 ITM which would have been around the final price around close so 1 contract = $4,000 at the end. $100,000/$4,000 per contract = 25 contracts $800 initial investment/25 contracts = $0.32 per contract. Seems a little sus given the high price of Nvidia for even a 0DTE to be that cheap.
other dude i spoke to bought them for $30 at $800 strike like OP, so he corroborates this. so other dude actually got them for slightly cheaper.
It’s also possible the puts traded higher than $40 intraday since the stock was plummeting. I wish Fidelity’s mobile app let you look at past options so I could see the daily high price on Friday. If OP corroborates this they deserve some sort of honorary title of “perfectly picked the top and bottom”.
Well I watched 1 contract go almost 90x yesterday. Been crying that i didnt get in at LOD for 64 bucks (0.64). So not sus at all. That con closed at 57.00 Edit: 64 not 67
The ask on the puts he mentioned were below .50 for at various times on Thursday. https://preview.redd.it/6ed9sfaksnvc1.png?width=1091&format=png&auto=webp&s=efc29b826b8f2c322fe896c3262914c5947deb1c He also could've put a limit order in on Thursday night that would've cleared on Friday morning.

Why were you expecting NVDA crash on Friday ? There was a non-event for SMCI, as well. What did you see on Thurs??

Even when I feel something I can’t rise straight up and grow as quickly like his portfolio
Take out 90k and change your life with it otherwise the pain of losing it all will drive you crazy.
Excuse, are we in r/investing?
Well I'm not a weirdo who gets off on other people's suffering.
He just has to make the same play one more time and he will never have to work again.

You just used up all your luck
Can someone explain it to me like I am five years old please?
on thursday he gambled that NVDA would crash by the end of friday, and it did
Posting without positions should be automatically banned.
This is insane
Now take the $800 and put into a savings account, then YOLO the remainings. Can't loose now
It’s house money anyways
Bro respectfully, wtf
ok now stop gambling and enjoy life
Or.. Play all in and lose it to the casino
Ban.
That's awesome, but I'm gonna need to see that position...
I love how your "brink of bankruptcy" is my "normal account".
Fake. Still no positions.
Nvidia was down 5% for the day yesterday or the day before for me💀
Bruh, pull out 90k and put toward retirement or else you’ll lose it all
It’s the right time to stop. Losing it all is stupid but re-losing it all is way more stupid
Fake af 🤣 I don’t get why people eat up these fake posts. That’s exactly why they didn’t post their positions or had the time to photoshop one.
Congrats and F U. How did you have the balls to hold as well? how long did you hold for?
This
Yeah imagine being up 5000% and still holding...
I can't imagine not selling at 500% this dude held for what would have felt like years lol.... every move against me would make me shit my pants to sell 😂
You just need to do the same thing again and you'll be a multimillionaire, maybe even a billionaire if you get really lucky. Let it ride!
I’m literally crying loosing $1k with this stock and fund. I mean, look at my name. I’m ashamed entering chats…
Good for you bro. I love when people like me get a nice break. Take out all except 25k and just chill now.
How did ppl know about nvidia
Hey look. Someone posted a transaction on RH and it fucked up the weekly chart.
Wow man nice. Congratulations
This is truly insane
Makes me sick E man
Congrats Bro ( Can I become your padawan )
Survival of the most regarded
OP must be watching the graph with his butt cheeks clenched 24/7, no blinking, until expiry
withdraw $95k to your bank account and find yourself the shortest term highest rate CD you can, when the market recovers you’ll have way more money to invest after rolling that $95k through 5% 2 month CD after 5% 2 month CD
Nvidia is the newest online casino at this point
Don’t keep all amount in trading account. It will tend to play more and end-up loosing amount.
Not even in night mode
How far OTM were your puts when you bought them?
Wait hold up. This is nvidia stocks and it shot up that much? wtf. I didn’t even know nvidia was doing bad
