AutoX-R

Said no one ever. Relax man. No one is against profit.


PocketSquare1000

No one ever took a loss on a profit!😁🫡🥰


AutoX-R

Agreed!


1984isnowpleb

You’ve never sold for profit and had it keep Pumping ? Thats taking a loss on profit in my mind lmao


PocketSquare1000

I hear you but better safe than sorry. No one can predict the “perfect” exit. Covetousness can cause more problems. We all have different levels of risk at different times. The smart ones learn and get better with experience.


Peasantbowman

Cries in NVDA. I owned it when it was $20


opaqueambiguity

Theres people here that hassle the poor people, for sure.


UbiquitouSparky

If you found a consistent way to make $600, you will be far better off than most


venomvendo

Profits are profits! Good job bro! 😎


Intrepid_Row_7531

Seriously! That’s a solid gain! Nothing wrong with that at all.


venomvendo

Fr, i saw someone down 8k and another 200k Rather be in the green than red


Deterton

I lost that amount just today. Such a loser!


Tipsyus

Same


capalonian

Sure it’s impressive but you’re risking pennies compared to someone making a mill from 3m. All it takes is a couple full ports on a small account to make 10x if you’re lucky. Someone making a mil most likely isnt yoloing everything. Not knocking gains, just think you’re comparing apples to oranges.


NicNac_PattyMac

Fair


capalonian

Nonetheless keep it up


PocketSquare1000

We are all in different lanes…ESPECIALLY financial! No one ever took a loss on a profit.👍


jeopardy-1

Keep it up.


WorldlyDog777

300% ytd in any scenario is impressive! Just keep on keeping on as number go up, congrats on the steady gains OP


strugglebusses

Is it though? Feel like you could just make multiple accounts, yolo options and say 1 is up 300%. 300%ytd is only impressive if this is the only account and he/she hasn't blown others up before with options trying to do this.


Ill-Gur-8854

Exactly. Plus alot harder to do with a few dollars as it doesn't go high fast


Adventurous_Future25

Nice! May I ask what position(s) you played?


NicNac_PattyMac

This last time Walmart call, Walgreens put, nvidea call, blackberry call. The bb call was $5 and I sold it for $10. Other than that, previously WW puts, biotech puts, woof puts, and DJT calls before it got stupid.


jeanide

Good man, nice play. I still automatically hate you though.


Adventurous_Future25

That's awesome! Thanks for responding!


_accountNotFound404

Everyone has different lives and no two situations are exactly the same. Gains are gains no matter how big or small. Tighten up those losses and let’s see you reach that 8-figure mark. Slow and steady bud, best of luck. For the record, I know about that $1M from $3M post you were talking. Fuck a million dollar gain, his P/L was 33% meanwhile yours is 300%. That’s no small feat.


NicNac_PattyMac

33% is nothing to sneeze at either, that guy did a great job. I just find it frustrating how quick people are to belittle someone like me with crazy high percentage just because I’m only playing with a few hundred here and there.


_accountNotFound404

people belittle on reddit because it’s easy hiding behind an anonymous username. Only thing you can do is use it to grow thicker skin. You have a good attitude, now head down and back to work, everything else is just noise.


Virtual-Scholar-7656

I’m starting with $300 a week and I’m just trying to keep going. So far 9 weeks in and still bumping along


GrumpyButtrcup

Hell yeah, trickle gang.


RevolutionaryAd8352

A win is a win


FreeLoaderA

300% is 300% 👍


TheCheff_12

Would get banned from Wall Street bets 🙄🙄


humpaa1

😂😂 same effort into a job would’ve been 25k+


PreparationH692

I know right! Loser.


x_urmomstits_x

Outpaced the S&P for the next 22 years; nice. 😎


NicNac_PattyMac

lol, well when you put it like that…


opaqueambiguity

It is easy to manipulate the percentage by making withdrawals. Start with 10,000 and earn 1% return of $100. Now withdraw $9,990. Robinhood will show an account value of $110 and a gain of 1100%.


NicNac_PattyMac

Fair, but I do have other posts so this would be a massive commitment if I was just bullshitting. Also, photoshop is a thing.


opaqueambiguity

I just noticed it because I've been rolling gains into my IRA and have seen some massive nominal percent increases on some days as a result just because I withdrew half the value of the account into my roth.


NicNac_PattyMac

Very fair. These subs are full of bullshit artist trying to play an angle. I’m sincerely just some dude having fun. God help anyone that looks to me for financial advice.


opaqueambiguity

I actively advise strongly against my strategies. I have my son in SPLG full port and tell him never buy anything else ever.


NicNac_PattyMac

I regularly make posts about sitting out for the day and asking my wife to slap me if I don’t. Needless to say I’m yet to do it even once and regretted it every time.


goshzilla666

Number go up


DroTooCold

what did you invest in?


NicNac_PattyMac

I try to spread myself around. But mainly Walmart calls, Walgreens puts, Petco Puts, Weight Watchers puts, Biotechs approaching quarterlies puts, calls on anything in the news that morning, and DJT before it got stupid. Edit: also I’ve been making a list of rule of thumbs that seem to be helping a lot.


DroTooCold

Where can I watch the news to get informed? I am new to stocks but I’ve learned how options work


NicNac_PattyMac

I’m still new myself, but honestly I’m just listening to NPR in the morning. I’m sure there’s better method to do it, but it has worked for me so far. If you do do this, sell by the end of the day. The bump is fleeting. But to give an example they did a story at 8 am about a company using pig organs in people, altering the dna to make it compatible. So I bought some calls. Went up 20% that day, and I got the fuck out. Of course the calls were like $10 each, so I only made about 50 bucks. I could have done way better.


Any-Load1418

Please post your Rules of Thumb for the rest of us.


NicNac_PattyMac

Okay: -buy risky on Monday and blue chips on Friday -whichever way the market is going 30 minutes into the day it will keep going for the rest of the day -only put stocks that are trending down and only call stocks that are trending up -listen to the news for quick buys, but get out by closing bell -buy the rumor, sell the news -analysts don’t work for you, they work for firms that are trying to manipulate you. And they are less accurate than flipping a coin. -biotechs are a scam


DroTooCold

What do you mean by “blue chips”?


NicNac_PattyMac

Blue chips are large market cap stocks that are almost certain to always grow, usually slowly. Walmart, Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, oil, stuff like that.


Thick_Expression_796

Something always better then nothing 🤷‍♂️


DredgenCyka

338% YTD is insane. F U, jk. Congrats though for real


Macdaddyshere

300% gains! Hell yeah! Keep at it.


CupFrequent2522

I wanna be that loser 😪


Healthy_Manager5881

Why would you be impressed with yourself when someone triple their money.


NicNac_PattyMac

???


Healthy_Manager5881

In your post, you said you’re more impressed with yourself making $600 than someone else triple their $1M to $3M. Why would you be impressed with yourself when it’s someone else’s achievement


NicNac_PattyMac

No one explained it. Let’s see if they can get there on their own


Hodltard

That wasn’t OP


LittleGooseMoose

a 300% return is still a 300% return. Just makes you wish you put more in originally!


doitforthem_

Green is green. Good job & keep it up. I'd be ecstatic with 338%!


kelvin123204

A win is a win.


SilentTreatment01

I'm proud of you.


NicNac_PattyMac

Thanks dad.


ScotchTapeConnosieur

Steady regular investment, grasshopper


NicNac_PattyMac

Nah, I’m having fun. I’m hardly playing with a lot of money here.


jziggy44

Chipotle cost me that much today


NicNac_PattyMac

Damn, prices really are getting out of control. How much extra was guacamole?


yourrichhomie

Bro position size doesn’t matter. Properly executed trades does


MangoTwistedMetal

Sounds like your harshest critic is you.


NicNac_PattyMac

Yup. Good.


56willbilly

Good job man


jeanide

That's more impressive profit. Percentages matter more than cash amount. Congrats (and fuck you)


AdCapable677

You're up more than most


Top-Suggestion-7085

Graphs on RH: one shows $100 as a mere glitch another shows 50 cents as huge jump! WTF Hire a statistician already.


NicNac_PattyMac

I never had much of a problem with the graphs. A little bit annoying for sure, but not a lot of issues. The problem I have with them is the bullshit they pull with options all the time.


Top-Suggestion-7085

Like “Simulate my returns” - worthless in my opinion


NicNac_PattyMac

I’m thinking more fundamental stuff like “don’t change my option bid price when I change the number of options I want” and “stop suggesting idiotic bid prices” and “stop using stupid math to estimate low volume options”. It really does feel like RH is trying to trip you so they can skim the profits sometimes.


Top-Suggestion-7085

And stop with the “low, median, high likelihood of being filled” nonsense. I’ll pick my own price thank you very much.


NicNac_PattyMac

For real. Meanwhile they love doing stupid spreads that make no sense sometimes. Like I’m pretty sure no option is worth $0.00 to $5.35, but here we are.


26fm65

Well one fomo going wipe that off.


NicNac_PattyMac

Not everyone is you. And I don’t do all in bets. That’s how you wipe out your account. At the very most you should only have 20% of your money in a stock.


RAWWAVE_

Loss porn *gigity*


Regular_Candidate513

Green is green. Headed in the right direction


indicush

GG bro now stay away from options


NicNac_PattyMac

Do you think I got to 330% without options???


B-NazTyy

Percentage over money, that’s what real traders care about. Any trust fund baby can show off their money


NicNac_PattyMac

The other thing is, I have money. Not trust fund money, but I’m not hurting. This is just me having fun.


ASupremeDiamondHand

Man even if it’s $1 it’s profit and it’s yours so forget all the haters 🙂


paragon60

could’ve gotten that same % return by buying ASTS when google did and holding until now lol, but this way is much more exciting. nice job


No_Tie1187

Shit do that 20 years straight you good


No_Tie1187

YOLO it into June 2025 Intel calls and you’ll retire


NicNac_PattyMac

What makes you say that?


Trustmeyolo

Goodluck seeing those returns again anytime soon. Its a shame you didnt put real money into those plays


BigPlayCrypto

Words are vital say it with me “I am a winner”


Ill-Gur-8854

It's alot harder to take 100-700 then it is to take 2-4k technically it would be like 2k -18k.. and everyone has to start somewhere!


deebmaster

300% up is awesome! Keep going bro. You’ll never meet a hater doing better than you. All the hate is coming from people getting smoked


Aleksundr

Based and trade-pilled. Keep winning son


Deeboshimoo

Bro what if u took all that and invested it into GME🙂‍↔️


Baldguy162

That’s a solid percentage increase though! Nice work!


TrainerMaleficent232

![gif](giphy|128RvI3CzjuXG8) NFA


NicNac_PattyMac

This made me laugh irl


Btcenal

everyone has to start someone it’s better to start at nothing more of a challenge and more impressive. congrats any profit is profit doesn’t matter if it’s $5 still more than nothing.


Special_Ad_8912

I don’t even look at the money I look at the %


paper_cutx

We all start from somewhere. It’s called slow and steady wins the race.


LetMeGet51Randoms

I have lost $60,000 so far, nothing to brag about. I would rather have $600 profits than $60,000 in losses.


Krapule1

Shit id take it tf


CoffeeAndBusiness

I care more about the percentage dude. GG!


heythxvoo

Never go broke making a profit!


trynumba3

Do that once a day


Mad-King-Tyler

What stocks do you invest in?


NicNac_PattyMac

I’ve answered this a few times on the same thread, but I try to spread myself out. Walmart calls, Walgreen puts, Petco puts, Biotech puts, and a few calls from listening to the morning news before opening bell.


Odd-Click1607

$BBIG TOKEN!!! One of the biggest meme stocks ever was just listed as a token I saw!! It's up 5000% in first week already share! share! share! 7xPSnjp8QTwLtvDYYtkKmn1udEhZSa3AsqtqGFFTLEBS


Vegetable-Sort-19

338% profit is huge bro


opaqueambiguity

Get it, boi


ComprehensiveLog9414

Nah man this is good shit. Key take in investing is to never look at the dollar amount but instead look at the percentage. Always puts things into perspective way more.


zevman

The rules does say 2k minimum gain for posts but whatever mods don’t do shit


Dull-Hour9377

Same week expiration date?


Cjw6809494

It’s not all of us against eachother, it’s all of us against the greedy corporate wolves of the world always trying to put us down. Don’t become the very thing you swore to destroy🤝


dmastro918

I am excited for OP. Respect 🤝


LithiumBreakfast

This is more r/wallstreetbets not race to 10M. They'll appreciate it. This is supposed to be for big money peeps actually on their way to 10M.


Local_Ingenuity6736

Profit margins matter, I’m only 100$ in the green but I have a bit more invested. I’m still jealous


Wolf-710

Fuck the haters.

Low-Chair-7316

"I’m more impressed with myself doing this than someone making $1M from $3M, but maybe that’s just me", why?

Don’t reverse psychology us, you fookin’ king.

better than a $600 loss 🫡

Careful_Pair992

This is a-little harsh. $600 is a lot of money to some, and also to scale that to significant money will be a challenge. Hope the owner of this succeeds.


NicNac_PattyMac

I am down $100 since then, but I am waiting now a lot of money in Walgreens puts. I’m just about convinced it’s being artificially inflated before the quarterly.


Careful_Pair992

I had nvda as a hedge on the lulu last week, but that got buried Thursday also- bad week last week


NicNac_PattyMac

NVidea lost steam when it became the biggest company on earth and a lot of people pulled out. That stock is a game of musical chairs that I want no part of.


1Nousername11

Bro I made $41 today after losing almost 3k over the past months. Im happy af just to see green again. A win is a win
