VW diesel guy. MQ250 gearbox guy. Turning into an options degen.

In the PNW now, originally from Michigan with a decade inbetween in California. Go Blue!

@abdullah_717 @AmitBRaval @VolSignals I'm not sure what you're trading. Futures? Options? 0 DTE? How far in the money was it at the time price stalled?

Dan teaches a lot of 'cheapening' options structures with verticals and flies. Basic idea, highest delta long you want price to go through, want price stall @ shorts

@WDemocrat51476 @unusual_whales What Trump did is way worse than insider trading.

He made money off of his own manipulation of the markets.

At least Pelosi's profits aren't market manipulation AND get reported in a timely manner.

@alanisnking It's the damn humidity!

The heat isn't so bad when the humidity is gone! 😅

@KKirkwoodRacing I still miss the late '90s and early 2000s CART machines, but overall, current day IndyCar is a lot better than what we had in the latter half of the 2000s.

I also can't stand how F1 does yellow and red flags and safety car rules. Red flag rules in particular have ruined races.

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@KKirkwoodRacing Probably mostly fans that came to the sport through Drive to Survive.

I was a big CART fan way back when, but became more of an F1 fan as American open wheel racing was a bit in shambles with the ongoing civil war between CART and IRL.

But, IndyCar is pretty great now.

@AmitBRaval @VolSignals It might even be better to start in VS Pro discord, and then feel out how good the edge might be and if you can apply it successfully before moving onto paying for VS3D on top of that.

Get taught how to fish, not just copy trade.

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@AmitBRaval @VolSignals So, that having been said, there is some value to be had by being in the VS Pro discord as a starter, sit in for the morning meetings and get his intraday updates on where and, more importantly, why he thinks things are going to go where he says they might go.

@DebtDaddyDave @unusual_whales I thought it was Intel he was all about and the government bought stock in?

Nvidia's been doing just fine on its own.

SPCX is a future dilution nightmare with an already bloated share structure, good luck.

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@champwebdotnet Ironically, the racing has been pretty interesting in F1 this season.

But it is weird how reduced the ICE engine power is and how powerful the hybrid has been made to try and net out about the same power.

There have been issues... Different than IndyCar driver complaints.

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@Mr_Derivatives Maybe, but it may also fade right back to 7475 by close.

My feel is either we bounce and land near 7500 by close, or we slide back to where we are now after a bounce by the close (7475).

So, not a bad idea to bet on a bounce, but once you get it, maybe hedge for reversion.

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@VolSignals Good stuff. This of course could be subject to change as we get closer, right?

As we get to the 30 DTE window for the July OpEx, we should see more trades get put on as June expires which may change this outlook.

Great stuff to know to watch for, though.

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@alanisnking David spoke about driving out of his mind on the edge, Pato's onboard from a couple years ago showed him overdriving into oversteer a couple years ago lap after lap.

I'd love to see Malukas' onboard to see how crazy he was getting with it.

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@alanisnking Guy was in tears like Pato was a couple years ago after losing a close one to Newgarden.

Heartbreaking, but phenomenal drives nonetheless. Indy fans love that show of emotion for the biggest race.

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@champwebdotnet Phenomenal!

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@mama_gforce I remember him joking with guys in late 1998 that he had to go to F1 so he could race at Indy.

And then he gets canned from Williams after only the one season, 1 season before the first USGP at Indy. 🥹

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@leadlagreport Started doing some fasting myself. First, 18 hours, then 24 (one meal a day), and I just came off a 72 hour fast.

Partly inspired by how you talk about it, then did further homework.

I feel pretty fucking great, honestly.

Keep preaching. It's pretty amazing.

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@VolSignals Alright then, see what VIXperation brings us.

We may yet have a sell in May and walk away.

[Matt Phelan @Matt_TDI]

@Skyapple60 @ShadowofEzra @BuriedNewsBlog Lol, are you retarded? He forced the release of millions of gallons of water during the rainy season, when it's not needed, and where did it all go?

Into the Sac River valley and then straight to the ocean! Because he has NO FUCKING CLUE how anything there works.
