Yes... most people don't understand how incredibly difficult it is to hold to 10x like this. So many times, I was tempted to take profits, finger hovering over the sell button. Around 5x and 7x, I ALMOST got out.

I sold my 2/14 $40 calls for 6x returns. I bought them on 1/31 so wasn't a long hold but am kicking myself for letting them go before the super bowl. I wasn't sure if for some reason there would be a negative news cycle after and drop the price. Congrats for riding this out to 10X!!

I don't fuck with FDs. That's straight gambling. I mainly deal with long dated contracts, LEAPS, or shares.

Honestly that's the first time I've seen that used on WSB in like a year. Granted I don't frequent this as much anymore.

Old school WSB lingo from pre-GME days when we didn't need to spell it "regard" - stands for fgts delights (OTM weeklies), because the idea is that playing FDs is a great way to take it up the ass.
