@Rumpletmkp@MichaelPBento Interesting. It was a genuine question lol i follow so many accounts i don’t necessarily see every post. Just seemed like whenever I have, he’s been bearish
@smdcapital Yup. Part of me says it’s good to ensure i’m not in some permabull echo chamber and see the views of more experienced market participants but the other part I wonder am I being impacted by flavor of the week narrative - letting the doom and fear posts into my subconscious
@Partfortynineg1@livelaughgroyp@AtlasShrug1@AtlasShrug1 you did like a 15 part twitter thread w/ graphs and what not explaining your perspective and rationale. May want to consider pinning that on your profile for accessibility
@Partfortynineg1@livelaughgroyp@AtlasShrug1 He is very well versed in the history of market cycles and has unwavering confidence the cycle will play out how they always do. Being spot on the last 5 mo. of market action has only increased his certainly. I assume hes just tired of explaining it
@AtlasShrug1@ChairmansLedger Did you consider it a mania during March-April as well? I ask bc u often mention u were bullish then & now many names are below their march levels.
I suppose the diff 4 u is the macro/credit environment & now political backdrop Im guessing…?
@BearOnWindows95 This is nonsense. Probably never worked a soul sucking corporate job or just aren’t as successful as you think so every day you’re insanely stressed when trading
@HedgeyeDJ@AndreasSteno Damn dude you totally got him. Tech bulls lost money during a violent tech correction…OWNED
Simply show your ytd, 1 yr, 3 yr, 5 yr vs theres
@Temple_Eight I have never traded futures. It’s a shame I didn’t go w/ spx for the puts since i could have closed them overnight when they were up big
Election shit really caught me off guard. I had thought dem sweep was priced in
@Temple_Eight@strictrope Yes but bc i’m still so heavy long, only occasionally trying to hedge w/ puts. I can’t justify trying to play bounces given my situation/positioning. I have tailed a few of your shorts.
I fucked up thinking I could hedge w/ qqq rather than SMH or SOX
@Temple_Eight@strictrope Actually tried to hedge AMD print yesterday (thinking if it was weak we’d see more panic selling) by grabbing some qqq puts fri expiry.
Managed to take 70% losses on my hedge while hyper AI concentrated port also bled out
@AtlasShrug1 Ik. I try 2take a lot of ppls perspectives into account. Clearly I should have given yours more weight as they continued 2play out.
Bearish overall outlook aside tho do u have any historical analogues 4 political regime change like this? Or r they N/A as far as youre concerned
@AtlasShrug1 Yes ik you’ve been warning of this for months…YOU WERE RIGHT JOHN! Lol.
I just thought companies still producing great earnings (FPS, INIO, STRL, VRT) would have more of a floor at least until we see signs earnings deterioration
@AtlasShrug1 Your guess will certainly be more educated than mine. I’m just taken aback by the 20% sell offs in already beaten down names on what had largely been projected (although I realize the dem sweep was more extreme than any1 anticipated).
@Temple_Eight@strictrope Painful when i was just at 100% early Oct & climbed back to 35% a week ago (before goog print). As i mentioned in DMs, I really let my margin get carried away recently. Inexperience+greed were my downfall
Was trying 2 wait 4 long term gains (1-3 mo away)2 trim AMD, BE, ALAB, etc
