The only certainty in the market? Option time value goes to zero. I trade that. No hype. No chasing. Just premium, structure, and decay. Welcome to the Dispatch. 🫡 generaltheta.substack.com #options #trading #theta #premiumselling #volatility #spx

@GrindeOptions Filling the gap

Can someone explain to me like I’m in elementary school as to why $MU and $AMD are falling off a cliff in the overnight market? 🤔

@usbank "You're estimated wait time is more that one hour." Really US BANK? This is how you treat business customers?

@TheH0n3stTrader No kidding, huh?

When you’re up $1,420 and start chasing an extra $80 to round it off and now you're down -$900.

@TraderJonesy That's the top!

Are there any $SPY or $QQQ bears still alive???

@StingrGolf And he didn't rake on top of it.

@JJuxi1 @Jeremybtc Never noticed that... Just repeating what he told me.

@GeneralTheta @Jeremybtc Fairly sure he has a cameo in the movie.

A man invented a $2.5 MILLION crime spree, sold it to Hollywood and charged $30,000 per speech to explain how he did it. It was all lies. > Frank Abagnale claimed he spent 5 years as a teenage fugitive. > Impersonating a Pan Am pilot, a Harvard trained doctor and a Louisiana attorney general while forging $2.5 MILLION in bad checks across 26 countries. > Steven Spielberg turned it into a 2002 blockbuster starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks. > It became one of the highest grossing films of that year. > Broadway turned it into a musical. > The FBI hired him as a consultant. > AARP named him their official Fraud Watch Ambassador. > He charged between $20,000 and $30,000 per speaking engagement for decades telling audiences how he pulled it all off. > For 40 years nobody seriously questioned any of it. > Then in 2020 a journalist named Alan Logan spent three years pulling every public record prison document newspaper archive and court file he could find. > Pan Am's own security department told a journalist as early as 1978 "This never happened. You don't forget $2.5 MILLION in bad checks." > Prison records showed Abagnale was behind bars for most of the years he claimed to be a fugitive. > The Georgia hospital had no record of him. > The Louisiana attorney general's office had no record of him. > His only confirmed crime was check fraud totalling less than $1,500. > Logan's conclusion the entire story was not embellished but fabricated. > Abagnale had not committed the con by impersonating pilots and doctors. > He committed it by convincing Hollywood, the FBI and the entire world that he had. The most valuable skill Frank Abagnale ever had was the ability to make people so entertained by a story that they forgot to verify it. That skill made him MILLIONS legally.

@Helmzee @JomboyMedia 100%

@JomboyMedia - up 9 runs - tries to quick pitch him - gets mad the batter calls a timeout so he doesn’t get quick pitched - throws at the batter Absolutely soft as hell behavior lol

Pirates pitcher Chris Devenski was ejected after umpires determined he intentionally threw at Reds batter Sal Stewart. Devenski appeared frustrated with Stewart's timeout call before the pitch

@MatthewFairburn Homer. Embarrassing. The game was over by then.

Charlie McAvoy has been the dirtiest player in this series, and he gets one last dirty play in. After getting tripped by Benson, McAvoy got up and swung his stick at him. McAvoy is -6 in this series by the way.

@11hr11minv It was an amazing series, but completely botched the ending.

ThIs scene . 😨🔥

@CollinRugg Good point. Go after all of them.

NEW: Rep. Anna Paulina Luna calls for the pardon of the special forces soldier who made $400,000 betting on the capture of Maduro. “Unless the DOJ plans on going after all the crooks in congress currently insider trading, this is simply skewed justice.” “There is no "justice" when guys like this get the book thrown at him yet members are illegally profiting every day…” Spot on.

@MusicJim2 Richie Furay there?

@thetechlao I meant sell the options. Most options bought expire worthless. When you buy them time works against you.

@GeneralTheta Sell it before its too late

here's how a 0DTE trade goes from -30% to a total loss. and it happens faster than you think. you enter a trade. it moves against you. you're down 30%. your brain kicks in: "if it gets back to -10%, i'll close it." it doesn't. it goes to -50%. "okay if it just gets back to -30%, i'll take it." it goes to -70%. and at some point around -70% or -80% you stop watching. you just let it go. because the pain of closing it feels worse than the pain of ignoring it. so you let a $SPY 0DTE contract bleed to zero. i've been there. here's what causes it every time: no predefined exit. not a stop based on price action. not a max loss % you committed to BEFORE entering. just hope that it comes back. hope is not a strategy in 0DTE. or in any trading strategy. every minute you hold a losing contract, it loses more value. theta doesn't pause while you wait for a recovery. the fix: before you enter any trade, ask one question: if this goes against me, at what point am i out? you answer that question before you click buy. not after. my answer is always the same: if $SPY closes a 1-min candle back through my level — i'm out. hard max: -20%. the trade that goes from -30% to -70% is never a market problem. it's always a rules problem. rules: - define your exit BEFORE you enter - minus 20% hard max. no holding. no hoping. - overholding builds the worst habit in trading. in trading, rules > strategy every single time. respect your rules or the market won't respect you.

@ick_real Open the door for her.
