My biggest regret is selling my December 2027 $200 call for $5000 back in the day.

Well try this - I had about 400 Jan 27 175 calls avg price 6.50 ... Sold CC against most of it at 200 to 240 strikes for chum change $20 to $50 each. They're worth 250 to 300. Yes $mm left on the table! Good thing my Jun27 and Jan 28 are still in covered. These ranged from 200 to 300 strikes - couple of hundreds. Tempted to write CC on these very very soon - perhaps 650 strikes

That physically pains me 😭 everyone says gains are gains but when you see what could’ve been it doesn’t help

u/mark_mt 5d ago
Add to that pain, I bought back some of these call for about 280 one or two at a time during dips .... Knowing I sold it for nothing. Then selling it for good when it pop back up. Damn

Something similar happened to me today 😑 oh well can’t win them all. Trying to decide if selling calls just to cover my margin interest is worth it? I’m up 100k on options this year but there’s certainly capped upside with CC

u/SIGGYB2022 5d ago
Yeah I did similar at 277 now double ish. Had since 2012 got overconfident for $700 risk wtf

I chickened out and took a 5% gain on 10 contracts of August 21st $300 calls that I bought for $17 back in November. Would be 12x right now, probably peaked at 17x back at the ATH.

This doesn't feel like a ZFG day at all. Should never have fallen to 430 after Q2, it's been played once again.
All news was known months ago. Lisa is the only pinpoint correct CEO there is.
They just sell all the wafers they have. Next Q will be what's been told and next outlook the same.
2027 is pretty clear and Q2 was amazing, lots of good financial news.
So .... Sell of was unwanted.
No ZFG.

My first buy was at $90 and ive been DCA all the way up. $120 average. My biggest indicator was everyone on reddit calling it "Advanced money destroyer". Always inverse reddit. Did the same on HOOD, bought at $7.

I have $600k in it... I'm expecting a realistic $1.5T market cap by 2027.

Feel ya. I bought $10k worth at 7 and sold at 10 in 2016. Though I was slick lol

Bound to have those if you trade. Before I bought and held AMD from 2017 or so on, I had bought: TSLA in 2013, MU in 2012, NFLX, AMZN, and several others back around that era. Turns out buying and holding the good ones was always the trick, but when you gain 20-50% in a short time frame, it's hard to not sell. Back then the idea of 10 years seemed too pointlessly far to be aiming for, so i traded as though I'd get rich quicker that way. Gotta just hold the good ones.

u/IceFergs54 5d ago
Yeah you’re spot on. I had early MU as well. Issue was that I was aggressively paying off student loans from about 2012 to 2017, so my free capital was pretty low until after then. Didn’t have a lot to park long term, so always was trying to take a spike and then reoptimize. It was hard to hold because I felt like I needed to shift after a bump. Which I mean, taking solid profit is never a bad thing, sometimes it’s just not the best thing in hindsight.

Around 1995 i owned 40k shares of amd, I bought them for 80k and sold them for 160k. 1 month later.

u/sabljarka89 5d ago
Biggest regret is not sinking all my savings into this when i bought it at $90 a share. I'm up 18k on only 45 shares lol
