Permabears will look you dead in the eye and tell you this chart is a good short and that “retail is wrong” any given day 🤣🤣

Machu Picchu. What an incredible site to see 🤯🤯 Must add to your bucket list.

@GrindeOptions A nice retest to load up on calls wouldn’t suck!
English
Not gonna lie, I would love to see $TSLA come back down below $400.
English
@ktmkancha @JOBhakdi Good move as long as you have some time before expiration if you have to hold a few days. I’ll def be watching that 414 level come Monday.
English
@paleorunningdad @JOBhakdi Bought one today at $424
Will buy another at $411
3.75 billion buys entere around $390-400
It would be rewarding the bears at $390 again

@CuriousPejjy Whole market is down. It’s not just about Tesla in markets 😂
English
In August-October of 2023 $SPY drew down -10.3% and then over the next 2 months bounced 17.1%
It would go on to run 52% over the next 430 trading days.
In February-March of 2026 $SPY drew down -9.8% and over the last ~2 months has bounced ~18%
Yet people are still losing their minds over this “totally unprecedented & historic move”
We got a slightly faster drawdown this year and now we’re seeing a slightly faster recovery.

@TheRealTci @supertronic3 Yeah, this is fair. I am heavy in Tesla, and I sold covered calls all the way to the bottom. Trading options has helped boost my portfolio for sure but during downturn I had to be honest with my portfolio and let go of those bad performers (Path and alike)
English
the only way your portfolio is at highs is if your overweight Semi's or Mag 7..
that looks like a smart move now, but will likely under perform in the next 6-12 months.
being a great investor and achieving outsized returns is not about following the SPY every tick.
id rather be down 10% this year and in 2027 be up 100%. thats the idea

$PATH Seems to be at a Make or Break Moment..
Support Normally Comes in at these Levels.
UI Path Trades at 10.45 PE on 2027 Analyst EPS Numbers....
It's Possible $PATH 2027 EPS Estimates (Fiscal 2028) rise from $0.90 (Analyst Estimates) to as high as $1.20 (Per My Estimates)
In that scenario the PE for 2027 Numbers is currently 7.84
Fair Value by December 2026 = $24.. The Stock is $9.42
Do What You Will.. NFA.

@supertronic3 @TheRealTci The reality is the market is at all-time highs. if your portfolio is not also at ATH, you went wrong somewhere. it's time to be honest with yourself and assess where you went wrong. SaaS.
English
@paleorunningdad @TheRealTci If you try to stock pick as a retail trader in this market, you will be devoured by the algos, shorts, Citadel, etc.
Stick to safety. Stick to Trump's calls like semis, AI, chips, defense, etc.
Lesson learned on $PATH

@JOBhakdi You've been on point, Jo 👏👏👏
Wish you bought call options and I'd def join your Pioneer lands. That's where the money is at right now in Tessie and not enough profits in continous put selling IMHO
English
@optionscjp I had (2) Tesla CCs that expiered this past Friday at $400 strike price. Obviously Tessie ran past the $400 so I booked the loss instead of rolling forward since historically April is low month for Tesla followed by upward movement though summer. Different approach ideas?
English
Seeing lots of people stuck in way underwater covered calls,
Or other options selling positions that went sideways.
If you are stuck on a position and don’t know what to do leave a screenshot of the position below or comment what it is and I’ll try to tell you what I would do if I was in that situation!
*not financial advice of course*
English
@JOBhakdi This has happened to me on robinhood. For some reason it auto selects buy or sell options for you and next thing you know, I’m in the wrong position.
English
lol I just lost $2k in my small side account (fidelity) within 30 mins because….
instead of selling $TSLa puts it actually BOUGHT them.
Glad I checked back quickly to admire my gains.
Thank you Fidelity for being morons who can’t upgrade your 80ies trading UI.
Bad UI COST MONEY.

@TheRealTci Careful getting married to one single stock. This strategy can bite. It's ok to like multiple sectors and multiple companies equally.

long $ZETA
Almost Everyone on WS is getting this one dead wrong.
Investor Denis@InvestorDenis
If you’re still unsure if $ZETA's clients are impressed by Athena, here’s what CEO David Steinberg said at the Q1 2026 earnings call: “Athena was a driver in one of the largest deals we have ever closed. The customer is a leading global apparel retailer operating across multiple brands, each with unique customers and over 3,000 locations worldwide. Zeta’s platform was purpose-built to handle the complexity required by the largest enterprise companies, and this customer was able to consolidate down from four vendors to one, Zeta.” The customer fired three competitors to keep one, $ZETA. Long $ZETA.

@JOBhakdi I've been wheeling TSLA for some time now. Primarily selling covered calls but also buy options for up/down movement.
I'm a big believer in TSLA but just buying and holding the stock is wild. No short-term gains in that game plan.
English
The problem is that these moves up are very hard to predict re: the top.
Conventional options strategies don't work because they all simply reasonably low volatility.
If Tesla goes up 500% in a few weeks, drops 40%, and goes up another 200%, you are screwed.
That means in the initial runup, it's relatively easy to massively outperform the stock. But once it tops out, it gets nasty.
I will have to think more about the right strategy - for now, it's smooth sailing back to $490 while we watch Macro and Robotaxi inflection.

@JOBhakdi You are doing great, and I hear you about the “whole topping out risk”. When we reach the moment, what do you think about the “The Wheel Strategy”?
