    Yes, Costco/wmt etc. I missed entry on that though. I had a chance on contracts but set a target price of a few dollars off per, if I would have checked it again before closing I'd be really happy, hahah.

    I picked okay with Cisco... but not anything as exciting as these other ones. I'm thinking I'll risk Cisco through earnings I still have time since I bought further out. Have about an hour left...

    Yes FML FOR REAL, I had 200p (and 170p for super lotto)... I can't ****ing believe I didn't follow through. The 170p that didn't place are up 9100%.

    Since I missed entry I put a watch on where it was... Oh what could have been a great day, now I'm. Stuck with Cisco up 300%

    CSCO looking like a small print! Haha, obviously I gotta wait till AM but liking what I see so far... I rolled the put out and took some profits... But I don't expect it to be like the Target fail I missed...

    For a second, I thought you had said you bought CSCO puts to short retail stores. lol. Then I thought, I dunno... maybe there's an angle there or something. :D

    Oh sorry, haha, I combined everything in post!

    So I was trying to get in on Target yesterday and Costco this morning but was too late, and too slow this morning (for Costco).

    I got in on Cisco Puts yesterday due to ER being after hours today and it probably being good but outlook being bad/slow, especially with downgrade. I cashed out some and rolled it further out before close today, especially if I was too early but it's decent profit atm.. Obviously holding some overnight is not enjoyable with how crazy the market is, but it's pretty small gamble.

    I'm more bummed I got focused learning about wheat instead of buying puts for Target yesterday.... Because that could have saved the thrashing my other investments are taking... Haha

    Lots of profits on the short side. Selling any rally has been working well.

    I don’t think people understand what free speech means. You can say what you want (as long as it complies with the laws of the land), that’s why no one is deleting that guy’s tweet. But that doesn’t mean others who don’t want to listen to your whining every time a stock is down are forced to listen to you. Blocking someone is not at odds with free speech.

    Shorting scams like lcid and rivn to hedge myself have worked out well. You forgot the receipts on those. Oops
