one doesnt have to.m

it is funny because a lot of wsb’s ‘scheming’ is actually based on analyzing how much shorty is out there (one can argue this is even technical analysis) and saying well this is an opportunity here. plenty of other stocks are experiencing this now, not nearly as brazen but same concept

of course the subsequent pump pile on is funny to an extent but it is based on math. market mover just does whatever they want and math be damned. i want something to pump it will i want it to crash it will

Oh I know lol.

Anyway, my $25 EOW calls went from 3.6 when I sold, to 4.25, to now 1.24. So I'm still up.

Doing some "research", by which I mean listening to youtubers that make videos on WSB plays, I've heard that there's still 150% short shares of GME relative to floating shares. Basically this is not a short squeeze, it's a squeeze from people selling naked or partially naked calls and needing to cover. The short squeeze is still incoming on GME.

This is gonna get even wilder. 10x from today's cap is still very realistic.

Breaking about even on BB shares for the day, but way up on my calls. GME wrecked my day trading limit on Friday, so tomorrow if it opens down I'll be buying my calls back and holding shares.

If it goes up to $25, then I make 60%. If it doesn't, then I make 360 in profit and take my basis down to $15. I did some more research and BB is looking very solid. Tons of great contracts on the horizon.

Honestly, even totally ignoring meme status, this is a solid buy from me under probably $30. It's like PLTR but with a super solid base.

I gotta say, the GME saga makes for wonderful entertainment. Almost can't believe I'm rooting for those autists against the institutional investors.

well of course. it's always fair game for the 'market movers' to pump and dump and blow up people's entire stock portfolios on a whim. bunch of dorks do some math and decide to use that to their advantage with some stock that was shorted to the 9s..guess who is getting all the flack.

Man I love/hate RobinHood's pre-market.

BB is up pre-market and options can't move outside of market so it looks like I'm up ~15% pre-market. Once it opens my calls will be adjusted and I'll be slightly higher than even. Still, it's nice seeing those 15% gains even if they're fake lol
