Well we have an orthopedic surgeon and a Radiologist on this thread, so we are covered there. Cheers everyone, what a gear day.

Yall better be more proficient than the ones who dealt with my scaphoid and zygomatic fractures. And I didn't get too boost TSLA to boot!

What will the compensation be for Elon after reaching all the targets of this compensation package?

He will be the 1st Trillionaire and make the humanity interplanetary. Only an ~8x from here. Wonder how fast will that happen. Considering all the companies he owns.

Life is definitely weird, and like he said, will only get weirder.

Amazing time to be alive, we truly are lucky.

This is kinda stupid. It invites MM to target that option for expiration.

Really? Just because the initiator of that position identifies him?herself? What difference does that make? The MM saw the position taken at the time it was taken. So what?

Interesting that TMC and Reddit are going in similar conversational flows, albeit with many digressions.
I wonder if we should send Stealth, Krruggend and others over to the Reddit side

However, to be fair, these lovely people are not so obsessed with Tesla if they don't wanna pay attention to it in the next 3 months,

No trimming of Tesla by ARK today despite the big up move.

 

[phantasms]

I believe they trimmed yesterday Curt. Even they make mistakes sometimes.

 

[TheTalkingMule]

No trimming of Tesla by ARK today despite the big up move.

I have to think they'll likely suspend any trimming until nearer inclusion. Must be too tempting to pass up.

I wonder if the pace of the TSLA move-up has anything to do with buyers not wanting to get ahead of the upper bollinger band too much. I don't really trade on TA or anything, but I've noticed from @Papafox posts this year, that pretty much every run up did not get too far ahead of the upper bollinger band, and often only stayed above it for a day or two at a time.

I'd be curious to hear @Papafox's thoughts on this in his daily post later.

Either way, new ATHs and barely any volume (and therefore no large selling) is pretty bullish imo. Sellers will show up, but not many did today at $500 - $530.

I've been holding Jan '21 $800s deep in the red for a while.

Today, I've rolled these into Mar $700s. Therefore realizing a loss (for 2020 tax purposes), giving me 2 months more time and realizing higher % gains on days like today.

Sell 19 TSLA Jan 15 '21 $800 Call Executed @ $8.95

Buy 3 TSLA Mar 19 '21 $700 Call Executed @ $39.7

Just another step in learning this game and tweaking my portfolio for the risk I'm okay with.
This transaction also paid back about $5k of my long overdue margin...

With that, I can now move the portfolio to IBKR and reduce my margin cost by about 6% per year.

You may be unaware, that is a wash sale so will not be able to claim the loss on your taxes.

I wonder if it is like the old saying "Nobody got fired for buying IBM." but now it is "Nobody got fired for buying while the stock price was inside the Bollinger band ."
