Down $1,200 in One Day... Why Am I Still Smiling? youtu.be/5OTSfLAwNKk

BREAKING: The US Supreme Court has ruled - Trump has NO absolute immunity in the Epstein case. This 2026 decision means the President can now be subpoenaed. No immunity. Period.

🚨🚨🚨 ISRAEL JUST MADE THE SINGLE MOST DANGEROUS MILITARY DECISION OF THE ENTIRE WAR. AND NOBODY UNDERSTANDS WHAT THEY JUST TRIGGERED. 🚨🚨🚨 Israel and the U.S. struck South Pars — the LARGEST gas field on the planet. But here's what they either didn't know or didn't care about: South Pars is jointly managed by Iran AND Qatar. They didn't just attack Iran. They attacked the energy backbone of their OWN Gulf allies. Let that sink in. 💀 The IRGC just declared ALL major energy facilities across the entire GCC as "direct and legitimate targets" — and warned strikes are coming in the "COMING HOURS." 💀 Listed targets: Qatar's LNG complex, Saudi Aramco facilities, UAE oil terminals — EVERYTHING. 💀 Saudi Aramco has already EVACUATED workers from the SAMREF refinery in Yanbu. They're not waiting. They KNOW what's coming. 💀 Iranian hackers have ALREADY hit Aramco's digital systems — posting images and issuing threats to PARALYZE their infrastructure. 💀 Multiple EXPLOSIONS just heard in Riyadh — confirmed by Reuters, AFP, and AP. Sirens sounding in the Saudi capital. Do you understand the scale of what's happening? ⚠️ Qatar's LNG complex is the LARGEST on Earth. It supplies 30% of the world's liquefied natural gas. If Iran hits it — Europe's heating supply DISAPPEARS overnight. Not in months. OVERNIGHT. ⚠️ Saudi Aramco is the most valuable company on the PLANET — worth $1,800,000,000,000. Its refineries process 12 MILLION barrels per day. One successful strike takes 10% of the world's oil OFFLINE. ⚠️ In 2019, a SINGLE drone attack on Saudi Aramco's Abqaiq facility knocked out 5.7 million barrels per day and sent oil up 15% in ONE session. Iran now has 10x the motivation and NOTHING left to lose. They're showing you "precision strikes on Iranian targets." They're NOT showing you that those strikes just gave Iran the JUSTIFICATION to destroy every oil facility from Qatar to Saudi Arabia to the UAE. Here's the logic — follow it carefully: → You bomb a gas field that's JOINTLY OWNED with Qatar → Qatar — your own Gulf ally — publicly condemns you → Iran uses the attack as justification to target ALL Gulf energy → IRGC formally declares Gulf facilities as "legitimate targets" → Aramco starts EVACUATING refineries → Explosions hit RIYADH → You didn't weaken Iran. You gave them the excuse to burn down the ENTIRE Gulf's economy. If this was a "strategic victory," why is Aramco evacuating workers RIGHT NOW? If Iran's military is "degraded," why are 6 Gulf nations scrambling to protect their oil fields from an attack they believe is IMMINENT? Complete silence. You don't evacuate the world's most valuable company unless you KNOW what's coming. The IRGC said "coming hours." Not days. Not weeks. HOURS. And every Gulf state just went from spectator to TARGET. This is no longer a war between the U.S. and Iran. This is a war that's about to ERASE the Gulf's entire energy infrastructure — the infrastructure that powers HALF the planet. Prepare accordingly. 🚨🚨🚨 They don't want you seeing this. Follow + RT to beat the algorithm. 🚨

The Hard Truth About Self-Directed RDSP Investing: My $4,000 Black-Eye youtu.be/ULhfvZM7wg0

@nomadictechy when I sold the covered call, I defined the exit price at the same time and set the date to expire well into the future. I didn’t expect the extreme volatility we’ve had so time decay wasn’t a factor. It was just volatility that caused the option to reach the price to buy it back

@disabledinvstr So how did you do it?

Space, the final frontier... but even in the 24th century, some struggles remain universal. When the food replicator gets your order wrong, making a "Captain's Log" becomes the ultimate test of endurance. KHAAAAAN! 🚀🚽 #StarTrek #CaptainsLog #SciFiComedy #SoraAI #NobodyLaugh

Transitioning from TSXV to US equities for options is a logical progression - US markets offer deep liquidity and frequent expirations. When you start writing covered calls, key differences to note: 1) Expiration frequency: US stocks have weekly (Mon/Wed/Fri for some) and quarterly expirations beyond the standard monthly cycle. This creates more premium opportunities but requires more active rolling. 2) IV environment: Implied volatility levels differ. For context, SPY's 30-day ATM IV is currently ~11-12%. This may feel lower or higher than Canadian volatility you're used to, directly impacting premium yield. 3) Liquidity concentration: Even in optionable stocks, ~80% of volume concentrates in the nearest 2-3 expirations and strikes within +/- 1-2 strikes of the money. Trade there for best fills. 4) Assignment risk: US options follow T+2 settlement and can be assigned anytime for American-style. Manage accordingly. Master these basics before expanding into more complex strategies.
