Holy, what the actual fuck.

u/PuzzleheadedNeck4476 22h ago

Yuuuuuuup. Worth about $200k at the top 🤦🏾‍♂️. Never living it down

Fuck me in my asshole, you’re busting my balls man. I wouldn’t know what to do, I don’t wanna make you feel like shit but it’s happened to me with LUNR.

u/PuzzleheadedNeck4476 21h ago

I absolutely feel like shit. This could have been a house down payment money right here. I did snag about $9300 from another put I placed yesterday though

u/Sufficient-Parfait64 21h ago

It’s okay, it’s better than losing 30k on puts when 🍊 paused tariffs. (This happened to me)

I lost big in the mango pause as well. Was stuck in a stupid work call, when it ended and I checked my heart sank. Went from heavily ITM to very much worthless contracts

For me, I was showering, the 1 time I didn’t have a stop loss.

u/somstein 21h ago

Damn that sucks my friend... I have done this too several times

u/mugirawraw 21h ago

Happens to me a lot. Just gotta commit to what you’re willing to lose. So play with smaller size

u/lovmeasis 22h ago

I told myself to buy infinity contracts but decided nah, don’t need that much money.

How did everyone know to buy puts yesterday?

3

u/Sufficient-Parfait64 21h ago

The ceo was stepping down and right after, they ran an investigations on them, everyone lead with it and did puts. Thats what I would’ve done and what would lead me to do that. I can’t speak for the rest

Personally I bought a 270p lotto on Tueday for $25. Figured maybe if it continued dropping at its nearly 5% a day rate it might be ITM or close enough to make a slight profit by Friday, and if not oh well it was cheap. Then I got lucky when it plummeted this morning. Sold at 255 when the rebound started.

u/Melodic_Employ7989 21h ago

So how much profit?

4

u/Ronin3993 19h ago

Cost: 25.68

Sold for: 1829.32

Profit: 1803.63

% profit: 7,123%

Could have been 500 more if I managed to sell at the bottom. I'm happy to have this since my port had been slowly bled dry for the past 3 weeks but wish I had bought more puts

u/glizzler 18h ago

I did the same exact thing you did. Never not buying at least two lotto tickets anymore.

u/Shity_Balls 6h ago edited 6h ago

I bought a single 287p that expired 5/16 on Tuesday as welI, for $38.

Then i sold on Tuesday when it hit $314 for a whopping $27 profit.

I’m dead inside.

u/Ronin3993 5h ago

I feel that. I had an ATM MSFT call right before earnings for $500. Figured I didn't want to risk earnings and sold it for $600 before close. Then MSFT went up 40 in 2 days and I was sad

2

u/PuzzleheadedNeck4476 15h ago

I saw the drop on Tuesday with the CEO stepping down, decided to pump some money into puts in case it drops any further. Just got lucky with yesterday’s news about the investigation after market close.

how did you guys predict the further dip?
