OK here is a real tip

After the fed announcement tomorrow, if the market sells off on the announcement, buy 3 calls priced at ten cents on SPY for $30.

Most brokers won't let new people qualify for options unless they have experience in the market. Sounds like dude tryna put his taco bell money into stocks.

Most brokers you just have to digitally sign a waiver or something saying you have experience. Anyone can sign it

I think the idea is that the price for spy will go down, but then go back up over the next few weeks

I’m no trading expert but go watch some YouTube videos instead of randomly clicking buttons you don’t understand… you will waste $30 and learn nothing when u could watch someone else on YouTube do it and explain wtf is actually going on

Maybe wait to trade options friend. Can get you into big trouble.

You can't get into big trouble buying $30 worth of calls. Worst case, you're out $30. Come on, man.

Search up the graph for option types. Then only stick to buys, the sell option opens you up to infinite loss

No, youre buying the right to buy a stock at a certain price 100 shares at a time, doesnt mean you have to or even make money off the shares, youll just sell the call for more you bought it for and ez pz Now if you sell a put or call, thats when things can get hairy. A put much more so.

No, you wouldn’t owe anything but here are tips:

  1. Time is your fren

  2. Closer to the strike is your best bet, but $30 wont get you there.

  3. Set your sell limit as soon as you get a contract, the premium can change fast

  4. You will lose most of the time

You can only lose what you put in (ie what you pay for the options contracts… so in your case $30).

So if it goes up tomorrow I’ll buy puts for the same. Thanks!
