I had to leave my desk early but someone bought $1.2M in 4DTE $SPY puts in after hours trading… Very large size and odd $SPX $QQQ


Translation: It's going to be a high CPI reading.



I don’t know what to do man, sorry I’ll delete later.



Hey everyone, I have been in mental breakdown past two days and finally to calm myself down. I never cried too hard in my life. Many of you knew me as the guy who turned $300 into $200,000–$300,000 in just a few months trading $SPY. Lately there’s been a lot of positive and negative noise around me, but today hit the hardest. My biggest mistake was pure ignorance and sizing way too big despite solid advice from experienced traders here. I ignored it at times, and today I paid the full price for it. To be honest, I’m left with $10,000. It’s only April, with 8 months left in 2026. I’m determined to build it back up. This lesson will stay with me forever. To all the traders out there: please use my story as a warning. Don’t be like me, control your emotions and your size. And I will continue to post about $SPY and others, I deeply appreciate every single one of you on here.🙇♂️
