    So what does that mean? It's the worst weekly return since one of the craziest bull runs in market history started? Is that kind of like "this is the highest temperature ever during a December in the last 2 years!"

    Or does it kind of translate to worst week since January of this year since that's about when the downturn started, right? But maybe that doesn't sound as cataclysmic. :D

    A guy I chat with on a mma message board absolutely nailed shorting energy and oil. He covered most of it today. I thought he was a little careless going into the trade but he crushed it.

    He’s been looking at longs but still waiting to go in.

    Let me know when it's time to sell the wife. Then I know we've hit a bottom.

    Well my Usual Week - work meeting made me miss entry on NVDA calls.... $60 = $550 per Call over night - also had pinned META/SPY.... Let's not talk about those...

    Hopefully someone here made bank!

    On to the next week, fortunately no crazy trash plays where I blew up my account.. Gotta be optimistic, haha

    This past year, they've been rallying at the end of month while puking on holidays. I'm not sold it will be different for July 4th.

    Yeah, I'm trying to find some Puts for the 15th in case some random stuff happens so I can have a little more time..., assuming it's not already trashed by Monday...

    If I miss the entry, will wait for calls to do it all over, haha

    Probably watching MU for ER play, not sure yet... But could be plays for other tech. I entered MU calls yesterday but sold this morning for profit, nothing too exciting.



    Also, watching META due to tiktok ban news, this is not a long term hold but hoping to catch emotion type play... If I can watch it, will decide in morning, probably nothing there though.

    Then more fed news.. could cause me to wait. Haha, trash week for me on timing.

    Maybe MU calls 59c or even 60c for a quick play... I'm not holding through earnings but hoping for a smallish momentum type play off this. This is probably more like gambling atm, so as with all my terrible advice you might be better off buying actual lotto tickets, haha.

    I missed NVDA quick momo calls watching MU... Oh joy!

    NIO has survived a car crashing from 3rd floor , accusation ,Market dip.... anything less than 24$ today will be a disappointment

    * other EV and related companies also need to close near their monthly- high to stay within healthy trend for July-Aug.)
