The banner color at the top of the screen accurately reflects if the stock is up or down for the day overall. But even bigger stocks with higher volume don't make any sense. AAPL shows Puts as gaining value as well when it's clearly not the case. Does anyone else with Robinhood see this and get confused?

Robinhood is made by a few silicon valley brats who have no idea what they're doing. Their data is frequently hosed up- it's great for small accounts and free commission but don't use it for research

$HUYA earnings on tuesday... getting horny.... "It's Twitch, but CHINA! ESPORTS! CHINA!" DocuSign earnings on Thursday. "CLOUD! BUSINESS!" Everyone loves cloud. I feel like this is a good company.... thinking about getting some slightly OTM calls  It's going to be really cool when this current tech bubble pops.

I honestly can't stop rolling VIX calls. I don't have a good theory for what's gonna blow up, but I'm highly confident that the theta decay is worth eating to be ready for it.

My SPY puts last week closed Thursday +7%, opened -20% on Friday, was able to get out -10%. Money has been rolled to $AMD $15 PUTs for Jun 15 and Jul 20.

Yeah I bought some GLD calls about a few weeks ago for similar reasons -- one of those "worse before it's better" trades -- but I already sold them all except this JUN $131 strike that's still hangin' out before its inevitable fate. I was thinking about VIX calls last week, but the spread is always weird to me so I just bought the puts. I'm not sure there will be anything "permanent", but there seems to be a general uncertainty ... Oh man I wanna buy AMD puts but I'm a big wuss

NTDOY down to about $46/share. Perhaps investors are skittish about potential Sony/Microsoft bombshells at E3? If no Switch killers/rivals are announced at E3 (Microsoft and Sony go first), I may buy some Nintendo if the share price remains depressed before the Nintendo E3 presentation.

0/2 for -3.5% on SPY scalps today. Bad entry, went the wrong way, I dumped the Calls for Puts for a small loss, and the fucker turned around on me again. Rather than chase my entire way through my dry powder, I'm going to give myself a time out to think about what I've done.

Now that they've gone up, a year of that might be the cause. Same thing happened in 2006-2007. I decided to mess around with options on robinhood since I blew up my fidelity options account and also got reamed by fees. Was going to buy MU calls this morning, but got a generic error message blocking me from doing anything. Proceeded go from down 7% to up .4%. All ready getting a taste of getting screwed out of my plays.

Now that they've gone up, a year of that might be the cause. Same thing happened in 2006-2007. It's a poor candidate, we're still not at the 07-08 prices, and doubly so when corrected for inflation. I think a good blow up will be presaged by an highly impactful event that undermines conventional wisdoms that are propping up the market and is emotionally shocking, causing investor panic. Some bad candidates: - A student loan debacle. Where's the actual shock here? This is a problem, and it's a boil a frog problem. It could maybe be the catalyst for a sharp decrease in retirement contributions, leading to retirement fund managers suddenly having fewer dollars to play, but that would have to coincide with boomers leaving the contribution market. - Boomer retirement. It's not happening in broad strokes, because boomers are so saddled with debt that they continue working into retirement ages. - Tech bubble explosion. The FANG-explosions isn't going to happen because these companies have real revenues and have been demonstrating real revenues for years. What kinds of conventional wisdom do we have that are vulnerable to unexpected events? - The supremacy of US investment. With Trump flinging poo poo on international trade, the advantages of investing in the US market are precarious. If he pokes the wrong country, or tariffs have an unexpected consequence, I anticipate this will presage a large scale failure. - Real Estate has overcorrected back into an overbought seller's market. This won't blow up like it did last time, but a housing price crash that then leads to secondary effects like e.g. the bay area suddenly having tons of tech workers underwater on their mortgages could gently caress things up royally. - Some hot conflict. There's enough precariousness on the verge of violence I do think this is worth being concerned about. - An actual repeat of 07-08 with different finance instruments. Our lovely legislature has thrown open the gates to the mid-00s financial activities that hosed multiple banks over. With those short-sighted activities now openly embraceable, we can get another blowup, and this time the recipes for how to get a bunch of money quickly are well known. The only restraints here are the broad economic consequences, which many people making the decisions won't give a gently caress over. What market will be the focus of this financial malfeasance? Throw a rock in a random direction: between huge negative equity auto loans for near-decade terms, the overbought real estate market, and the student loan problem, there's plenty of good candidates. I don't like student loans as a risk factor, but if people start emigrating from the US to escape their student loans it could rapidly go sour. If Dear Leader pisses off the wrong country, they could potentially gently caress the U.S. by baiting individuals with terrible student loan debt to immigrate. - A subtle interest rate threshold that precipitates a huge amount of money leaving stocks. If "low risk" returns reach the point where people want to leave stocks in aggregate, it could pull down all kinds of secondary and tertiary derived financial structures with it. I can't call what will fail, and I think it's likely that whatever does fail isn't on this list. I am skeptical that we've reached an economic utopia where large failures don't occur anymore, and we've gone a historically remarkably long time without one.

I honestly think that barring some geopolitical blowup or constitutional crisis, China will probably lead us into the next recession, particularly their real estate sector. It’s hard to get a good read on it but it sounds like a classic massive land bubble with Chinese characteristics.

Agronox posted:I honestly think that barring some geopolitical blowup or constitutional crisis, China will probably lead us into the next recession, particularly their real estate sector. I agree. I keep thinking China is going to have their 1929 moment that signals the end of their "rapid growth of an agricultural society transitioning to industry" phase of development. The boomers are already retiring (refer to labor participation rate vs. unemployment rates). Student loans are a political problem, but not currently a financial one. If anything, it is holding back growth as spending is curbed due to repayments. If the next administration lifts the restriction on bankruptcy however... FANG stocks are frothy, and I could see Trump yielding an anti-trust hammer against them. However that would likely just result in them under-performing the market. They are backed up by earnings, but the multiples on many of them are still very high. You also have the SNAP, TSLA and TWTR stocks of the world which have no earnings and are being powered by hopes and dreams. I could see a loss of faith there leading to a 6-12 month bear market.

Some bad candidates: It doesn't matter if it's not as high due to inflation, credit card balances are way up as well as student loans. Americans are running at 0 margin once again so any meaningful price increase is going to put a squeeze on them. It probably won't cause a blow up until next year though. quote:- A student loan debacle. Where's the actual shock here? This is a problem, and it's a boil a frog problem.

I'm not saying a large failure won't happen, but at the moment there don't appear too many obvious triggers. That doesn't mean a 10-20% recession won't happen, but a 50% crash seems unlikely.

I disagree with everything you said except there is some housing price bubbling. Nowhere near 08 levels, nor is the collapse immanent, but it is stressing to bubble. Should we be bullish on AMD? Like its just not failing, ever.

If TSLA's financial fuckery comes to a head I think that would be the exact domino getting knocked over to bring a lot down. I'm also reluctant to call the limit of how far Elon Musk's reality distortion field can carry his various schemes.
