I’m considering shifting my focus from short-term to more long-term options, but I’m not sure if that’s the right move in this market. Anyone here make a similar shift recently? How’s it been going?

Just buy leaps. Easy peasy.

likesmart

Fine then short a call at a higher strike if you care about premium.

Leaps are great when there’s lots of fear and we are closer to a bottom than a top. I sense no fear in this market, so seems like short term price action is best.

Would love someone to challenge this position. I want the other side to avoid any of my bias

You leaps are going to be worthless in next 6 months. We are going to be negative in 2025.

You might be better off just buying the underlying and using some margin but you have to be careful with your position size.

I love that Trumpies can't decide between 'Biden is a racist' and 'Biden is a leftist, woke uber-liberal'.

This is the kind of mixed messaging you'd expect since MAGA is terrified.

So I recently learned about the Boston Molasses Disaster.

How crazy is that?? What are other historic engineering accidents worth looking into?

I started trading during Covid crash. Started with equities and eventually moved to options. Earlier lost a month's salary and then lot more trying to recover it. Currently have lost my yearly salary worth and it's affecting all aspects of my life (job, marriage, health). I have tried to convince myself to consider it a loss but always get back trying to recover it.

Any advice how to deal with it. Thanks.

Noob question on selling puts- I just sold a weekly put that I WANT to get assigned. The stock fluctuate a few dollars a day so I’m looking for a specific price to own the shares at vs entering a limit order. The stock has already gone below my selected strike price by a 30 cents today but I haven’t been assigned the shares 🤔. Is it only by expiration day or am I missing something?
