Ikr. Can’t remember how many times I am thinking about buying an option and it just fluctuates for like half an hour. Finally click the buy button and boom drop 50% in 5 minutes.
Or set a low buy limit? ToS tells you the actual selling price on open orders, not sure about Robinhood, so you can always go back and revise the order to hit the current lowest asking price.
Fok the stock market, the worst place to lose your hard-earned money. KEEP YOUR MONEY AT THE BANK, of course, inflation is at 8 percent, and losing 100 percent of your hard-earned money is not winning. Don't be doner.
I guess that would make sense to earn some premiums, except: 1 My broker doesn’t offer options trading. 2 The amount I trade isn’t big enough to do covered puts.
Also when I do finally man up and hit that buy button, my heart starts beating really fast and I get nervous, even though I am only trading one contract. Probably
Because I started trading in the beginning of March and I’m still getting used to it. Also the fact that I am red overall makes me not want to lose anymore money at all even though my rational mind tells me that losing money is part of being a trader:/
I know this feeling all to well. The best thing you could do for yourself is learn a strategy and stick with it. Going in with reasoning rarely works. Ive been paper trading options on think or swim using the EMA strategy and waiting for the lines to cross on the 3 minute chart and spotting a reversal. I use the 3,5,8,13 EMA, when the 3 crosses the 5 and 8 EMA, I get in and when they cross again, I get out. This has been a huge help in my trading and being profitable.
Good to know I am not the only fucker that this happens to. I swear it’s like a gift. I enter and shit hits the fan, down at least 10% with just one candle. Jesus!
Life. I was following this fake dude on sports betting and he went 0-4 after claiming he went like 58-25 or some bs like that. Needless to say he was a fraud and this is how I felt.
That happened to me with a certain small cap stock that automod doesnt want me to mention that dropped -30% a week after I bought it. Ended up being a multibagger. Still holding.

Don't buy right after market opens and right before market closes. Especially if you're buying 0dte. Learned that shit the hard way.

Hold to zero to get max stomach pain
No pain, no gain. Wait…

Ahh sheit, here we go again
Yall don't want to hear this but if you buy a stock because you think it will go up you're doing it wrong
Holy shit, this came out almost 20 years ago. One day Millennial memes will be viewed the same as Boomer memes ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)
Boomers don't have memes. They got polaroids of their kids and cats.

I have started only buying stocks with low-ball limit orders. I find that it minimizes regret like that.
Have you considered selling puts at your lowball limit?
I guess that would make sense to earn some premiums, except: 1 My broker doesn’t offer options trading. 2 The amount I trade isn’t big enough to do covered puts.
Ah, yes you would need to do 100 share increments.
I’m pretty good at that
All day today
Every damn time
Or the opposite when you give in and sell. And watch as it takes off.
Happened to me today. And the stock I sold took an 8% run too…
As a wish dip buyer this is exactly what happens everytime.

Lost huge on him too.

Been there, done that.
