>No, you don't need to do anything special. Just buy calls and puts like you would with any other stock.

Stocks have better options.

With a %75/25 Call/Put you can bet for and against anything simultaneously.

As long as you don't hold til expiration and get exercised you will be good with calls and puts.

depends on timeframe, and dont let them expire. Calls are a better vehicle for going up and puts just suck ass because of their greeks. Farther dated options are more stable and may net you in the long run more profits, I would know I play weeklys like a fool. Finally converted back to monthlys. there are some exotic option plays that require large amounts of capital but depending on strat will net money always. Also if you are a gambler then options are not for you, they are honestly worse then sports betting, you need to learn to curtail your greed. check the volume of the option and see whether or not a MM is just supplying it just because.

Learn the greeks or not and IV or not. In the long run you'll learn about them either way, welcome home fellow degen!

Just don’t buy on margin. Puts have limited potential gains, but if bought on margin, can have unlimited loss potential. You can place covered calls. Which also have limited loss potential, but limited gains too. Call options are the most fun though. If you want to gamble, do some research on a few cheap stocks and buy some cheap 6 month to long calls. If you use RH, the options chains are preset, and you can scroll through them. If you use an online broker though, you can create you own options chain, but there’s no guarantee it will fill.

Start small, lose small.

Learn a little, see if you can do it reliably.

And for the love of Pete, stay away from margin while you are learning and ESPECIALLY if you are a gambler.

Only thing worse than betting when you don’t know the rules of the game is betting money you don’t have when you don’t know the rules of the game.

Check out binary options if you want sports-like payoffs.

Thanks for your submission!

r/WallStreetBets is known for making absurd but sometimes profitable trades that no one ever considered possible.

To keep making that possible, we need your help in keeping the feed of threads interesting and exciting.

We try to move all the short and basic questions, analysis, or jokes to the daily thread so that the best quality content can stick around and be more visible.

This is definitely a bit subjective, and there are no hard and fast rules, but a few indicators that your post should have really been a comment in the daily thread include:

  • Asking a question that is easily googleable or has likely been asked before. E.g. "What app should I use?", "What should I invest in?".

  • Beating a meme to death, like the 10 millionth, "inverse cramer" joke again.

  • Reposting jokes from the front page but slightly altered to be related to trading.

All that being said, we are here to help. We want to make it as easy as possible for you to post to our community. We have to balance this with making the subreddit interesting for our readers.

If you need some guidance, don't hesitate to reach out to modmail and we'll give you some pointers!
