Jane Street was running an algorithm that dumped Bitcoin every single morning at 10am. Every day. For months. Crashing the price. Liquidating retail. Buying back lower. Rinse and repeat. The second they got sued it stopped. The 10am dump disappeared. Now Bitcoin just had the best day in months. One trading firm... That’s all it took to suppress the entire crypto market for months. Now ask yourself how much of the crypto price action is even real. How many people panic sold because the charts look terrible. How many people got liquidated. How many billions were taken from regular people by a single trading desk. And this is just the first one to get caught so far… it’s about to get VERY interesting.











I have a 2.5Cr positions on Meta. Now, I will collect 15-16% yearly rent on these stocks. Here is how:- 1) I own 400 stocks of Meta. My acquisition cost on my last 200 stocks was around 600$ 2) I will NOW sell a call option at 695 expiry. This is a 28 day call. For this, I will make 860$ 3) That's roughly: 860$/60,000$ investment= 1.433% yield on 28 day basis. 4) This is 20%+ CAGR just through renting Meta. 5) Now: some of you would say: that covered calls is a risky strategy. What if the price hits 695$. And, you are forced to sell your stocks? 6) Two points:- a. If my stocks get sold then also I am making pretty good profits (15.8% in gains + 1 month rent) b. In case, I don't wish my Meta to get sold off, I can do something called "rolling over" my positions. What this means is that: if I don't want to sell my Meta stocks at 695$, I can cancel my rental contract (and kind of refund the premium with a penalty -- some loss on rent). How much loss would happen in rolling over? It depends on a lot of things. But, in the above example: the loss is likely to be around (30-50% of that month's rent). Now, the magical part is: that I can immediately create a new rental contract: and collect a new premium (let's say another 860$) And, keep taking this bet. Most people make losses on options because they don't make it part of their core portfolio. And, neither understand how to manage risks. If you use it sensibly (especially in good markets like the US), you can make decent cash flows. I teach this and much more on my global community: wisdomhatch.com/courses/global…





Don’t worry about China, it will all be fine! Highly respected President Xi just had a bad moment. He doesn’t want Depression for his country, and neither do I. The U.S.A. wants to help China, not hurt it!!! President DJT (TS: 12 Oct 12:43 ET)
