I'd say 1,000 is the new 400

1000 is the new 420... I'll buy one@1k.

You should buy 2 at $840, 3 at $1,260, ...

@Cherry Wine What brokerage/app allows you to see that?

 

[bhtooefr]

Robinhood if you pay for Gold (which is the tier that gives you access to margin - as opposed to Instant, which is still a margin account, but the margin is only used for unsettled funds and instant deposits).

The good news keeps on coming. Even Panasonic is getting some love thanks to Tesla.

Hah...well...had a sell order in for my Jan 2021 $650 Calls at $140, upped that to $165 last week. Saw the price action this morning and tried to up the target via mobile but it wanted password confirmation and couldn't remember so figured I'd fix it when I got to the office. 5 minutes later get to my desk and they're gone!

Oh well, investment: $1k, gain: $148.5k...no longer having to worry about when to sell...priceless?

Damn man, nice work!

I just freed up a few $$'s and want to buy another Call option contract. Not asking for an advice, of course... But I'd like to humbly ask our knowing elders...

If you were gong to buy another option contract right now, which expiration and strike price would you consider a pretty girl at the party?

???

Thanks in advance. I'm still trying learning and have a ways to go.

We need to open a thread for TSLA trading for noobs so the big guys here can give us some tips. I am sitting in some cash since the stock hit $400 and I just watched the stock fly by

No short squeeze, that'll look different.


I'm not hear about short covering in size occurring on the street - looks like long buying is driving up [URL='https://twitter.com/hashtag/Tesla?src=hashtag_click']#Tesla's stock price and not $TSLA short covering.[/URL]

@ihors3 - do you see today's price action driven by a short squeeze/covering?

What do the smart folks think about options right now? They seem crazy expensive, but I keep saying that and I keep making really good money on them.

Not a big guy, but the lesson Tesla has taught me is:

1. If price < X buy TSLA.
2. If price > X buy TSLA.
3. Sell TSLA when (error null value)

Dow Jones is cooling in the last hour, from ~320 gain to ~260 gain, but TSLA continues to charge ahead, up 81 points at the moment. This TSLA train is unstoppable!!!

We'll see how accurate Ihor's data is in, what, a month?

I have to think at least some of this is the start of covering, but long accumulation effects could be happening too - a lot of lotto calls just ended up in the money.

 

[Chunky Jr.]

I wonder if the smart money is anticipating inevitable S&P 500 inclusion and getting in before the stampede

 

[TheTalkingMule]

We're gonna do 20M in volume before noon. Yikes.

Watching CNBC blather on for many many minutes about Superbowl ads and Bezos defamation lawsuits with KARA SWISHER who has interviewed Elon/discussed Tesla dozens of times.

You'd think they would have an opportunity to drop in a mention TSLA up 11% to an all-time-high of $731 and market cap of $130B+. But NO MENTION OF TESLA.

I'm surprised Kara doesn't bring it up. "How come you don't talk about Tesla more?" They would have a 24-pack of eggs on their faces

My thought process is that even if we have a decent dip due to Q1, Q2/3 will slam the SP back up with more good news and S&P inclusion. I'm still more afraid of missing big jumps than buying some shares at say 700 and seeing it drop to 600 temporarily.

If that's true, then what we're seeing is INSANE!

 

[azaz]

thank you @anthonyj for the 3/20 $1000 calls

So, um... I've got some profit on my hands now... and I was thinking about getting a small position in ARKK / innovation fund. Anyone trade this with Interactive Brokers? When I try, I get "Contract is not available for trading". :Þ
