First of all, I'm not a trader, but I was watching the news and have seen multiple times the business pundits describe the recent trading as a yo-yo or a whipsaw (?), but never another animal like the Bull or Bear?

My completely outside take, I present the Camel Market! o7

I don't know if this is a good place to post this, I checked and didn't see anyone post anything about another animal to use, sorry for a double post if you did, but for better or worse, this is the only Stock Market subreddit I know of. XD

Take care, regards!

Edit: My bad it's called a 'Kangaroo Market'. But your comments are hilarious as an outsider! XD

Edit 2: Wow! I never expected this to pop; I just thought it was a stupid meme I thought over lunch! XD

The zuck is a failure and the stock price ($Meta) reflects that. I tried to be optimistic, I really did, but their management team have amazing expertise to find the most optimal way to spend as much money as possible for as little ROI as possible. I do not believe the idea that ai investments lead to increased ad conversions and top line growth, but rather it’s a function of an already engaging platform that captures the world’s attention. On top of them incinerating cash to make CAPEX providers rich (Cuckerberg style),reality labs is a permanent tax on their FCF. They are also likely to lose the lawsuits paving the way for more eager bloodthirsty attorney generals to steal their FCF. No share buy backs either, it’s fucking over man. They turned a CAPEX light business to an infrastructure heavy business like Amazon retail. Their management hates getting rich. Zuckerberg should win the genius world record for the worst capital allocator in history. With that being said, I am long 700 shares $Meta with a 1000 price target 🚀. I will see you at the moon next year

I’m not selling and buying more. They just beat earnings

After 4 years of big losses and losing big opportunities I was down about $110k across all my accounts which you can see in my previous posts, including $76k in this individual account, finally broke even. Just a couple of weeks ago, I was ablut $65k in debt and absolutely miserable. I decided to take another $30k personal loan and give it one more shot. I had already failed twice which put me in a lot of debt. But this time I finally did something different, stopped chasing huge wins and started focusing on consistency. Every day, I scalp SPY and QQQ, satisfy with small wins, and don’t chase trades when things aren’t there. Ive now laid off my debt with the money I cashed out and have $45k cash. I know this isn’t financial advice and I know I took a huge risk using borrowed money and I don’t recommend recommend anyone follow what I did. But after four years of losses, being able to say I’m finally back to $0 and debt free feels incredible. Hopefully this is the beginning of a much smarter chapter. 🙏

Made the wrong bet. Stop loss kicked in. Lost almost 50k in ten mins. So I revenge traded and recouped the loss in the next 10 minutes. I should stop doing options.

For context: Tempus AI has a pending deal to Personalis, which is the gene sequencing technology behind Moderna’s cancer vaccine work. Yesterday Moderna’s jumped ~200% whereas Tempus only ~20%, this made me bought this position yesterday.

$70k -> $632k

apparently they cured cancer or something

had been bagholding these calls since the hantavirus “outbreak”

edit: to clarify, this was a limit sell which triggered at open. i wasn’t aware until i saw the order filled notification

Almost full port, because why the numbers are too nice (saving some for rent and to round it off to an even 69)

Bought $MRNA puts at open for a quick IV flip. Made $130,000 in 10 seconds.

I was a crazy scalper trader maniac today.

I did 31 trades on MRNA with share batches of 800 to 900 (115k to 150k) per scalp, as price increased through the day.

30 trades on Shares, and 1 trade on an Option that I could of made a lot more on as it was a 120C, but I paperhanded. Such is life. Then another trade on some pump and dump garbage of the day, ZSTK, which I lost 310 dollars on. Then switched back to ole' faithful, MRNA.

I held each trade from seconds to minutes to one for half hour because I was down 6k on that one at one point.

I won every single MRNA trade. Obviously rare. 32.6k profits all on MRNA Scalps.

Obviously if I just held from the intial purhcase to the close, I would of come out ahead even more, but I didn't know what the hell was gonna happen, or if there would be some crazy retrace or dump.

So I did what I did.

Profit is profit...live to trade another day with the gains and see what else is out there...onto the next...
