What is a 0dte Call?
102

It's what your wife will later state as "where it all began to go downhill" in your divorce filings.

Zero days to expire - as in betting the equity / option moves today (upward in the case of the call).
Risky, and option can expire at $0 at the end of the day.

Today I made a 45% profit. Then 100%. Then 150%. Then 230%. Figured that ascension wasnt gonna end. Then it snapped back and I was at -40% and sold at a loss. It’s a risky game.

You holding anything into weekend?

u/hailfire27 1d ago
No I only do 0dte. Also holding into weekend on such a large drop isn't the best. You're taking on large risk for minimum payout

u/IndividualStatus1924 1d ago
Never do that unless u know 100% that it will drop or go up, which ever direction you would be buying. If not then it would be a gamble.

u/RichardUkinsuch 1d ago

Depends on retaliatory measures announced this weekend. SPY puts are getting so expensive now though. IV through the roof. I was buying 1DTEs in Wed and then again on Thursday but damn. Mondays were so expensive I didn’t buy any.

u/RichardUkinsuch 1d ago
IE SPY IV is super high = you missed the boat

u/Saltlife_Junkie 1d ago

Any put recommendations for next week for someone without a job and 400 bucks on their Robinhood? I was thinking about an April 7th 400 dollar put on SPY that expires EOD. Are there any easy ones??

u/RichardUkinsuch 1d ago
If you want something that's super volatile UVXY or anything VIX related

u/Saltlife_Junkie 1d ago
Spy has not been volatile enough? I say crack is the only option from here. Lol

u/RichardUkinsuch 1d ago edited 22h ago
SPY was the easy play today, only the truly reguarded bought any sort of options to hold till Monday today.

u/Saltlife_Junkie 1d ago
Agreed. I’m out. I called SPY 540 by Friday last Monday. Made 102. Still room to drop but not holding through the weekend.

u/Saltlife_Junkie 1d ago
You seem smart. Hang in there. Profits are profits. You did great tbh. Next week take a hard look. A bounce is coming. Not sustainable but don’t get caught that one day is my advice. Maybe Monday if tariffs are relaxed this weekend in certain countries. I’m out completely right now. SPY drops below 499 I’m buying Puts like it’s heroin.

u/smokafukkton 1d ago
Ya im with you man. Good luck! Ya 0dtes fcked me i was up to 30k and could day trade now without pdt so i got stupid wild scalping thought it was so easy ya real easy alright 🤦♂️

u/Saltlife_Junkie 1d ago
I sell early and buy 1DTE usually. When that market opens blood red 0DTE cost is so high. I’m hoping for a green Monday which would be crazy. Then I will buy 2DTEs and reap the rewards. Good like bud. Stay in touch.

u/smokafukkton 1d ago
Yes im thinking green monday to fuck bears good then they dump it again Tuesday 😆 it really is just all psychology man. Yes you too good luck! Have a good weekend

Calls paid through Wednesday

u/Saltlife_Junkie 1d ago
Absolutely. I was down a small amount. The fact is most bulls were thinking the tariffs were priced in. I knew better. Wed I bought 7 563s 5 561s and 12 559s. I literally knew it was coming. I don’t understand how others weren’t seeing it. He basically told us for a month this would be different.

u/n0Drip 1d ago
I bought 1dte tuesday and suffered from the gap down at the open. I fell for the bait of tariffs being priced in.
2
u/Saltlife_Junkie 1d ago
Understandable. Shit like that happens to all of us. Learn and move forward. Hell I bought NVDA calls for next Friday with a strike at 204. I took my losses and sold. If we were right all the time nobody would work. I made a ton on SPY puts ( for me anyway) and am waiting till Monday now. No catalyst to get these markets green as of yet imo.

u/Saltlife_Junkie 1d ago
