Anyone investing heavily this year??

[Uncle John]

The brothers here say take the profit, secure the profit. I get it.
So do we only take out one week options?
If you take long term play, what percentage of gain is enough to get out?!?

I struggle with this.

I struggle with this.

If you are talking options and you’re buying multiple contracts you just trim it like stocks. You could take profits equal to your initial investment or you can start scaling out at certain percentage targets.

The Tasty Trade team and others I’ve seen online suggest closing option spreads at 50% profit or more and moving on because you’re risking more than what you can gain. If you have multiple contracts say 4, you could close 2 for 50% profit and see what the rest do depending on expiration. But nothing wrong with taking profits less than 50%. Depends on your strategy. If you are long term and believe in the price try to take it as far as possible.

With my strategy I’m pretty short term in options trading so I’m going for trade volume so everyone doesn’t need to be a big winner I just need way more wins than losses. I aim for 50% unless I’m super bullish but happy to take 30% and flip it a again.

They haven't formally addressed their stance on property owners who are discriminating against black people. That's why I won't participate.

Haha my man has been bugging me about them the last few days. Just figured they gonna get alot of hype. Door Dash might be another. Since I am more of a technical trader i don't mess with IPOs until they got some months underneath. Just grabbed some $PLTR calls for Jan.

EV was on fire today picked up a bunch of NIO calls after their $50 PT upgrades from Chase, BofA and DB. Credit Suisse upgraded NIO to $60 so expect it to just take off randomly over the next few weeks. I also grabbed $PLUG calls yesterday after they dipped from offering. Chillin for a bit unless something good comes my way.

 

[Uncle John]

$SONO just hopped $3+ after hrs on strength of earnings.
will it pull back in morning and resume late morning?

 

[Coldchi]

keeping an eye on MDGS........$3.50 is the entry point........should fly from there.
$ANY flying this morning

 

[Coldchi]

SOLO has had a great week........steadily increasing over a dollar per day............great swing

 

[Uncle John]

trying to figure out if/when $FCEL gonna tank.
did well with them this week and the volume is insane. Waiting for someone to pull the rug.

 

[HellBoy]

I'll be watching PING for the next few days. If it has 2 straight green days, I may swing this back up. Looking at this chart, could be a multi-day squeeze.

dont wait........buy in now.
the closer the vaccines get to being rolling out, the more positive the markets are gonna respond.
with the world knowing how Biden feels towards weening the US off of oil to more clean energy,
the response is what u see now with the EV companies making moves.
i need to find out what companies make cryogenic freezers......cuz there is gonna be a need for them in order to properly store the vaccine.
time to do some digging.

i wouldn't bother too much with that. just speaking point of the view of what i do for a living. had a webinar last week about the vaccines. only the pfizer vaccine is the one that's gonna be stored at ultra cool temps. and from the way it was explained to us, most of the pharmacies that are going to take delivery of the pfizer vaccines are going to be the big chain guys like CVS, walgreens etc. most of them already have refrigerators that can handle this. so there is not going to be a rush to purchase cryogenic freezers. secondly, the small mom and pop pharmacies like mine are definetly not gonna splurge on no refrigerator that costs more than a $1000. aint no way in hell. we would rather wait for the moderna vaccine which our regular refrigerators can handle. and also, know that there is a company working on an oral vaccine as opposed to a shot. if they succeed, and the oral can be stored on a shelf like any other medication, most people are going to use that instead. just my humble opinion

yes my friend, get in now. any spare change you got lying around, find something to buy...cos the worst has passed. even if there is a spike again like they're saying, the vaccines are here now, and we are adapting. just buy something.

 

[rph2005]

i know i said i was gonna stay off the options for while but i couldn't help myself today. beefed up the ROTH slightly today on this BLINK play

Buy some $AAPL stock or an index fund that follows the S&P 500 ($VOO or $VTI to name a couple options) or just get both. That way you will have a diversified index fund and an individual stock that pays dividends. Keep putting whatever spare cash you have for investing into that while you are learning about the market. Once you learn more you can choose to expand but if you just pick one or preferably both of those options for the next decade or two you can’t go wrong.

Edit: This assumes you already have an emergency fund. If you do not have an emergency fund please ignore everything above and focus on putting whatever spare cash you have into building one up.

 

[althes]

BDJ and BOE are monthly dividend stocks.

Congrats to the fam making moves and winning. Also for sharing the knowledge.
I humbly solicit your opinions on the following:

1. What are your opinions on Robo-Advisors? I established a fund 3 years ago it is performing at around 6.68% for the life of the account. I am satisfied with the return considering the low risk and maintenance. Should I continue to invest in this fund or seek more lucrative options?

2. My 401K has achieved substantial gains this year. How do I protect those gains from the impending market crash?

3. I Plan on purchasing 5K worth of AZN, MRNA, and PFE equally. I this a good strategy? Should I wait for the true winner for the race for emergency approval?

Thanks in advance!!!

Just for my curiosity on #1, what is the YTD return? The S&P 500 3 year return @ 11.57% (annualized) and the year-to-date is 10.87% for comparison. Obviously, your return depends on your risk profile and if you're happy with it, then that's all that matters.
