I want that long term capital gains tax rate.

Sweet_Scar487 t1_iy4mg0w wrote

I believe you'll only be able to get short term gains here. Need to hold for more than 365 days. Correct?

I have a small account worth about 900 what are some advice that I can use to grow it

rp2012-blackthisout t1_iy58wpw wrote

buy itm leaps on apple, msft, etc.. sadly with 900 you'd only get 1-2 leaps.

and by leaps I mean the 2025 leaps.

Edit - you aren't getting leaps at those prices. I just looked. Buy a few shares of msft and ride it out.

Which ones would you recommend

DUK.............. :) TTE?

Thrombi_Yugen t1_iydq98c wrote

I have been following TTE- it’s pretty solid

AChaosG91 t1_iydrpg7 wrote

Yes indeed. I had an initial Position in it, but sold out of it unfortunately. I have added DUK to my Port though. I do recommend P&G as well for a Hedge against this strange market for a long term Hold, SBux, KO, PEP etc

How do I find companies to to sell outs for

Whirly315 t1_iy8vnib wrote

no i mean on the company robinhood itself lol sorry i should have specified. ticker HOOD. people shit on them but their balance sheet is actually pretty strong and they were one of the first stocks to get crushed down to a fair valuation. i had my friend im teaching sell the $8 put on HOOD for the jan 20 expiration yesterday and he got like $55 for it… that’s a pretty great return on only $800 of capital

Working-Ad-5683 t1_iy97tr7 wrote

Don’t you need to have like 100 shares to sell puts though

1

Whirly315 t1_iya2yt2 wrote

you need to own 100 shares to sell a covered call. selling a put is the other side, you need enough cash to cover buying 100 shares if the stock drops below your strike price.

i really like adam from InTheMoney to explain things. here is his video on the subject https://youtu.be/r_rKof8IdfU

I'm long with GEO and WBD (warner bros discovery)

BornIn80 t1_iy5lpde wrote

Long GEO here. It was a play for me because I knew the Democrats were full of shit and I put my money where my mouth is. Up 40% but not selling yet as I believe it will go up more.

DoggyCisco t1_iy8ureg wrote

Same but up 100%, bought at the 5's

frogelixir t1_iyajh55 wrote

I sold calls @$8.xx months ago bc after they cut div, I was like this shit will never get back to $11. Fortunately, I'm still long a few share to break even. I'm more than happy to let it go. Not too keen on prison industrial complex profiteering.

I started shorting at $8.5 and will continue adding to it because fuck for profit prisons. There will one day be a reckoning and I'll celebrate with fat stacks.

This sounds like absolutely terrible advice. You'd be better off trying to rob a bank...then of course...you'd end up in one of these private prisons...

I would sell $67000 worth of contracts to recoup the investment and make sure you won’t loose q penny in the transaction, the rest let it go with the flow.

wheeler916 t1_iy6396u wrote

Don't let theta and IV kill you while you hold for long term tax treatment. You'll have to figure out which one is more depreciative to your bottom line.

1

mannahosanna OP t1_iy648nw wrote

The contracts expire in 2024; I'm not worried about theta and implied vol. I'm holding because the stock is still undervalued. The long term capital gain tax rate is an additional benefit for waiting for the stock to realize its fair value.

Awesome, conviction is an important part of investing. I wish you good fortunes with your decision.

Congratulation I didn't realize in the title because it wasn't stated but this was a long term call. Nice and Congratulations.

How did you find this play ? What made you bullish?

I made a bit off of Geo too. Thanks Mr Burry.

Responsible-Cap-8732 t1_iy90ah6 wrote

Way to kill it with this one! Its still massively short, I don't know who would be short on this still. I have a pretty large position for me and am up 65% and holding because I think its going a lot higher. Bury got the idea for this one from me. Just kidding, but I've been buying since before Bury was invested on this. Good luck to us!

I am pleased to see that my investments are doing well. I continue to believe that GEO is a good investment, and I would recommend buying more contracts at the current price.

I'm brand new to Options trading; Correct me if I'm wrong..

OP bought 600 contracts @ $1.13 each so 600 x 1.13 = $678

Then sold said contracts and made $9,000????

Can you math?

TheBlueWhaler t1_iy4h77l wrote

Yes, I need the formula tho

Worried-Egg-8560 t1_iy4hncf wrote

(Current Price - Average Cost)*number of contracts

Dude you shouldn’t be investing in stocks never mind option trading

TheBlueWhaler t1_iy4lb1m wrote

IDK why you're giving me so much shit when I literally prefaced everything with "I'm brand new to options trading"

Thanks for the formula

root_over_ssh t1_iy537yh wrote

Each contract is for 100 shares, but the price listed is per share, so for every 1 contract, the cost is 100x the quoted price. So if you buy 600 contracts at $1.13, it is 600*100*1.13 = 67.8K

The 9k is the price change for today only (so current total value - value as of end day yesterday)

The number at the bottom of the screenshot is the total gain... so the current value of the contracts - what was actually paid (177k-67.8k)
