    Is there even any news on Tesla, or is this just your average +15% followed by down 12% in a single day move?

    Was just reading about how half their revenue on the self-driving option is deferred, intended to be released later as they release new features.

    No way Elon lets them report anything other than profitability and a beat, he’ll just pull some of that in if needed

    Got out of TSLA at 1580. I don’t know enough about any of this and got scared. Just took my profit and ran away.

    Good luck man. I personally don't see it. I think it's pretty well priced in as is and earnings won't be major negative pressure.

    Of course this is Disney giving me my money back on previous puts.

    wouldbe been a great day today, but trying to “buy the dip” on GAN, FSLY and NET did not go well.

    75 more in 12 minutes. Remember the dull days when it was big news when the market moved 75 in an entire day.

    Edit
    31 more with 11 minutes

    Edit
    Red with 6 minutes left.

    That was a dive. If banks have bad earnings, watch out tomorrow.

    Got a bounce at the end. That was a wild ride in the last few hours. Who ever called out this is going to end in the red thank you. DIS puts and doubling up the inverse positions wound up being a good gamble.

    Was good to see the Nasdaq downtrend disproportional with industrials. The first rational thing I've seen in a week in this market. I hope TSLA fucking plummets tomorrow (no skin in the game)

    webulls free stock promos are enticing. 10 free stocks valued at $9-$1000 per for having a 10k deposit you keep with them through sept 3rd? (on top of the 1 free for opening an account, 1 free for depositing $100, then i get another 1 free for leaving that $100 in for a month). i'm not even investing any of it.

    being mostly cash at the moment it's a good way to shuffle money around

    yeah the initial promo has lower values, but the 10 (or 25 free if you do 25k) has a floor of .9% return in basically a month which isn't nothing for cash. I got $20 for the initial $100 deposit just for parking it.

    lol so my broker is down this morning and I can't do shit while this thing keeps going up and I'm just fuming as my puts decrease in value. And then we reverse course and my puts print for the 4th day in a row. Also was unable to buy my XLF calls at open, and if I did, they ended the day back at what they started. I do think the market is fucking with us right now. They are shaking everybody out and bleeding us slow. I expected a sell like today to come last week. They are repositioning to go higher, IMO. Back in BA calls as I believe they sold off tech to bring banks/CLs/casinos back up. Looking for major pop in BA tonight.

    may get in some sqqq calls. don't know which ones yet, but they seem cheap.

    there's a 7/17 $7.50 call for $.10 (probably will be closer to $.20 at open tomorrow though)

    Today touched the 6/8 close (3233) on SnP 500 intrasession then closed lower. Not good for the bull case.
