But why buy an option that needs an 8% move to break even?

This wasn't cheap on either an absolute or relative scale.

Have I not established that I’m not exactly the most informed, thoughtful investor out there?

Neither am I and I do degen plays all the time, but even I would have avoided this one. Just wondering the thought process.

That’s why you didn’t make 250% gains today

Haha, okay loud and clear. There's no rhyme or reason to anything.

So he was literally just throwing darts at a board? I feel like there was more to it than that. This ticker isn't even on most of our boards.

I am a degenerate gambler, but if say NVDA has earnings and the options are pricing in a move I feel is outside of likely, I will not buy it. If shit.com is posting earnings and I have no idea if an option is even cheap or not, I will likely not buy it.

Shit.com… sounds interesting. When do they announce earnings?
