Based on options they're saying Tesla likely to sway +/- 12-15% after earnings.
I'm hoping for -15% sorry guys. I got out half yesterday but not looking great here today.
I absolutely expect -15%. Numbers are numbers and model 3 saturation isnt getting offset by China sales. Long term, nothing has changed. Solar + model Y + China sales + Germany sales are going to be extremely positive elements. But short term? Should be a bloodbath because the big fish buy/sell on whats happening now, not whats happening next quarter.
But as San pointed out, this is now a memestock. Its the new bitcoin. So you have fanboys who might not even give a shit about numbers saying OOO CHINA Q2? *BUY*.
But ultimately I think the whales are going to care about the numbers. Im going to roll the dice on -15% personally.

Fascinated to follow your foray into trading. You’re a relentless vacuum cleaner of info.
I just want to suggest that you loosen the tether between price and fundamentals. There is an element of art involved. Poker?
Ughhh. Sorry
France and Germany just went negative with rates. Oil looks like it’ll free fall. Stock market is @ ATH. See? Dichotomy - but not to you and me.
Aside:
I don’t know where you are in your own personal product cycle. Consider this. Do a little bit of utilities. It’s so old fashioned but everything old is new again. You get a nice return of a couple of percent. Utilities use some of that soft money to grease local legislators and annual rate increases are smooth as silk. No worries.
Just stay out of lunatic markets like California and I’ll be immortal in your thoughts.
so, one thing i can say point blank; im getting off ally and onto td ameritrade. things... dont make sense on ally. i dusted a few grand this morning when their site went offline, thats just for fuckin starters, but there is a huge disconnect between stock price and option value and its not making sense to me, and i feel like getting onto an established platform like thinkorswim is going to make day trading a whole lot more straight forward.
at that point ill feel a bit more comfortable with my sweat equity calculations because right now, things arent adding up.
in other news tsla hit a huge rush about 30 minutes ago and went vertical and i can find any good fucking reason for it. none. 'germany sales through the roof' is meaningless from a dollars perspective and im staying super focused on stock movement right now because we are approaching that magic twilight before earnings reports where The People Who Know are making insider info money plays.
so yeah on the one hand the stock going up is fucking odd, on the other hand it could be anything... pure stock manipulation, or a major fund deciding they were tired of getting burnt by logic and making a play based on irrational exuberance. flip a coin?
but yeah tomorrows going to be interesting huh. ive never been more confused, personally.

This is the time you get back on the weed train. CGC is going to rebound big next 3 months.
Pot and Shake Shack. Beautiful combo.

basically the upsides = you can buy a lot more options for a lot less money. also youre only risking the amount of the contracts. so my contract cost me $1.60 * 100 * 10 = $1600 basically, which is the absolute maximum i can lose regardless of how the stock performs. also i can bail at any point, so if it drops to $23 and im getting nervous, i can dump it and recover some of that buy-in.
downside = its a decaying asset; as the contract matures, it becomes worth less and less, eventually scaling to 0 value at its expiration date if it trades down or sideways.
also if the stock declines in value, that $1600 purchase price can evaporate fuckin fast.
but yeah if you math it the fuck up, you can basically execute trades with 100% guarantee of profit by essentially making multiple hedges using calls/puts. obviously the profit margin diminishes and on a $1600 lolplay theres no real point in trying to hack out $16 profit when im going to pay more than that on commissions, but when youre gambling with seven figure bankrolls and can afford to really do homework, you know, those 1% guaranteed profit plays add up.

So lets say in 1 week it passes $24 and gets to $26. You had a chance to buy it but pass and it continues to climb to $28. Now the contract is worth a lot more than $1600 correct?
Would anyone say "Meh, I don't want to buy the option and decide to just take the difference from the value of the contract, even if it was at like $28 a share?" I guess you would have to do the math between what youd profit off that contract vs the difference of the share price now vs the start?

CURALEAF for the win if you want to be long in a pot stock. Ultimately America will be in on the federal level and this is where you want to be. Do your own research and see if you don't arrive at the same conclusion. I'm not buying CGC. CURLF actually grosses more than they do and you have never heard of it. Let that sink in before you hit BUY.
You are all welcome in advance.
The exchanges are run by Jews. Start there. But to answer you, yes, they slowly take the juice out of it as it rises until it is so deep in the money that you are even w/ the stock. Problem is you are now likely too deep in case something goes wrong and are always against the clock. Option market makers are the worst.
