And here I thought getting in at 25 was a smart move

It was always a dumb move until you can tell me what your price target is, how much higher it is than 25, and why for a reason that isn't related to a graph.

(The worst performing stock in the last 3 months is FUBO but I HODL forever cause I know what I own)

This is why I try not to sell calls on my entire holding, or if I do cover the sold calls with long term calls so I can buy back in at the same price. You don't ever want to be in a situation where you have a sold covered call you really don't want to exercise. It should always be a win-win.

Like the whole point of selling covered calls is a hedge if the stock goes down. If you think it's just going to go up then selling them just loses money.

Wily Field is the right winner for Mega Man Soccer. Let's see how far it can go.

Wood Man was always one of my favorite MM2 themes (behind only Wily 1 and Air Man) so a bit surprising to see it out so early

Wily 2 and Wily 3 from MM3 out so early is a bit disappointing too-- but I love me some MM3 tracks. I'd probably have almost all of them in the top 50.

Agree that diving into dating sounds like a bad idea

If you're dating that quick it feels like you're trying to replace her which isn't really going to work even if you've diluded yourself into thinking you're "over" her

You may need to work towards finding passion in other ways. You can naturally find a partner at some point in that journey.

Finding someone who is designed to replace a messy break up is almost certainly just going to stack on another break up which even with a short term relationship might not be what you need right now.

I mean I'm not saying become a monk, just that prioritizing it is probably not ideal

360's only blunder was the hideous pad on the controller. I wanna say some later releases ameliorated that a bit. I had already bought 3rd party pads to fix it.

Much better console though in spite of that. Just better UI, better exclusives, better online, better performance on shared titles. I mean I guess you had to pay for XBL but money well spent.

Nice that it had a much lower catastrophic failure rate than the PS3 until the PS3 slim came around too.

But the PS3 had a bluray player I'll give it that.

Also she would most likely need to explain it regardless of whether its first name, middle name etc surely?

I think more people just accept that a first name is just a name that the parent thought "sounded good" and look for some sort of profound significance in the middle name.

But then again I have a completely normal first name and a really weird middle name so I may be skewed here. But like I've heard of some weird first names and while I can't speak from firsthand experience the secondhand reaction I've noticed is usually just "oh that's pretty"

So I mean, here's the thing with buying calls like that, you have to have a conservative estimate of where you expect the price to go after earnings

So say a stock is at $80 and you expect earnings will push it to $85. Instinctively you're like "oh well I'll buy the $85 call for end of week!" right? Well, no. You need to consider contract price. Say the contract is $2 a pop. That $2 is coming straight off your profit margin, so really, you need to buy the $83 call. BUT thats just breaking you even, so really, you need to buy the $82 or $81 call, which will be even pricier than the $83 call and further eat into your profits, to make money.

So I mean there are plays to be made, but picking the price isn't entirely intuitive even if your thoughts on the stock are solid.

And of course you could always be wrong. Then be prepared to lose 80% of your investment rather than 10%, which is why you need to keep your stakes low.

Can someone explain to me the downside in buying a call for a stock that has its earnings coming out the following day? If you buy a call and set the strike price for like $1 higher than its current price then you pay a higher commission. But if it bombs the earnings and goes down, youre protected because you dont own any shares of the stock. But if it pops off because the earnings were great, then you magnify the gains compared to if you bought the stock outright, right?

So in what scenario is buying the stock outright better than buying a call to protect yourself in case the stock goes down? What am I missing?

Edit: It just seems like with buying a call the only way to make a profit is if the stock goes up way over even your strike price. Not sure how to properly use these.

Yeah the big thing is for calls to be profitable with earnings is you have to be VERY right, not just a little right, unless you buy calls way lower than the current price-- but if you do that you're not really exploiting the greater leverage

So like if a stock goes up like $1 after earnings you'll make a bit with the shares, but with a call you probably won't make anything because of the contract premium, especially since those tend to go up if you cross over an earnings call

I think on the whole if you're picking stocks you believe in you'll do better with the call strategy though. The key is to actually use the greater leverage to reduce your stake. So for example if the moonroof strategy is to buy 25k worth of shares maybe just buy 2.5k worth of calls. That way if the calls go to 0 (and they often will) you don't lose much.

So I looked up the numbers, here's the bullish take on Doge.

Quick google says there are currently about 7000x the number of Dogecoins in existence than Bitcoin so if you think it could catch Bitcoin if it gets traction as a payment method, your target price would be $8.50 per Doge

So I guess there is a lot more upside here than I thought. I think the figure I looked up a few months ago was very outdated.

So like

Bitcoin is $60k right now per coin
Dogecoin is $0.40 per coin

The thing is there are like 50000x the Dogecoins in existence as Bitcoins, so if it were to go to $1 the value of all the Bitcoin that currently exist would be only around 6/5 of the value of all the Dogecoin that currently exist.

I don't know the exact ratio but you can look it up, but the point is the value is REALLY HIGH right now and you shouldn't logically expect it to maybe go up much higher than it is. Of course crypto doesn't always follow logic, but the plausible upside here (maybe a 3-5x jump) is much lower than the plausible downside (it could absolutely drop back down to $0.05 or even $0.01).

On top of that Dogecoins also can constantly be mined rather than having a coin cap like Bitcoin so the price will naturally go down over time as there will be more Dogecoins in circulation.

I actually like the currency and think it's more viable at what it sets out to do than Bitcoin is, but right now you're paying for a vehicle to buy Mavericks merchandise pretty much so it probably shouldn't be anywhere near its current value.

I believe if DOGE gets above $1 it has higher market cap than Bitcoin. Just keep that in mind. There isn't actually a lot of upside left at this price.

It may not be that exact number but like, total value held in the coins it's actually really high right now. There are just a LOT of coins because it's an inflationary currency.

I mean DOGE is inflationary by nature baked into the algorithm so it should naturally lose value over time. A crash straight to $0.01 seems unlikely but a crash to $0.05 followed by a slow bleed to $0.01 could happen

My brother sent me a screenshot from RH that says: "Dogecoin trades may not execute right now." I guess it was just temporary?

He just sent me another screenshot with the same warning at the bottom.

May as in "possibly won't" there is a huge amount of volume on DOGE and it screws up exchanges of the currency. You can keep trying and it'll generally get through though.

Same thing happened that day it got to like $0.05 the first time. I know cause I flipped 10k DOGE to make like $150 that day.

You need a lawyer now because the more action you take in this state where you're unwell gives her more ammunition to destroy you with. Like in a normal state it's going to be bad, but when you're super depressed and whatever, you're going to carelessly agree to something you shouldn't because it's easier that way.

And she will destroy you. You love her but everything you've shared indicates she will destroy you.

Think of a lawyer as a way to secure things you deserve or need more than as a way to antagonize her or take things away from her. If you just want to leave the custody thing be without legal intervention for now and without involving an aggressive stance on obtaining custody, so be it, but get advice from the lawyer anyway on pitfalls to avoid so that when SHE escalates (and she will) that you don't get totally screwed over.

You're acting like people want you to screw over the girl you love-- they don't, they just don't want you and your kids to get screwed over needlessly. There are ways to achieve that without hurting her, but you need to take some basic precautions to do so. Your path leads only to your destruction, but you'd rather mope than try to do anything.

Well I think the thermal mirror upside was mostly realized by partnership with Samsung inside track-- not sure they made a ton of bank from that really. It wasn't really touched on as a positive or negative in their ER, just that forward guidance is very optimistic because their main clients are restaurants, airports, movie theaters. The guys laid low with COVID stuff. 7-11 may just be the tip of the iceberg. I really do hope it is in fact 7-11 though as that name value has a lot of notoriety and would help them grow their client base.

Also IIRC one of their clients went bankrupt last year (CREX is getting their due but it's being delayed) which more than offset any potential upside from the mirror.

7-11 is more than a rumor. The fact that it's actually 7-11 is the only speculation there. Known press releases said they have a "new client with worldwide presence that has 14k North America locations" which the numbers basically spell out 7-11, and last earnings call they said they're closing on the deal soon which when finalized would bring them guaranteed 6m revenue per quarter, which is an insane amount of base revenue for their tiny cap. They couldn't give further details because of requests from their client but yeah I imagine it will be known soon. Next earnings at latest.

I expect their EPS to be very positive by the end of 2021 which should make the stock price increase on its own. Actual release of the name of the client/contract terms in PR form would make it moon short term, which should come fairly soon. But yeah at some point I expect this to be a dividend stock, straight up. 7-11 should give them a big enough footprint that they'll get more clients from that-- their work honestly looks really nice too. cri.com check it out.

These warrants I will probably sell about half when they double and ride out the rest, as the company doesn't terribly need dilution if they're pulling in that revenue (keep in mind their EPS is close to neutral right now and while they have around 10m debt they could likely erase that without an offering if they really wanted to) and I could only see their stock price increasing by quite a bit with that amount of revenue. That's not to say they won't do any offerings, but they're not the type to spam them I don't think as they can sustain themselves. I think they would more likely want people to cash their warrants out and to make money that way.

Basically CREX is a covid stock (its clients are negatively impacted by COVID) that hasn't yet recovered from the COVID dip as its clients are only now recovering.

Huge upside with it. Think the only reason it's dipping now is short selling games to try and flush people out before the PR on the announcement. Legit see these warrants as potential 10-20 baggers here by the time they expire. Like I overpaid for mine my cost average is a bit below $0.40, but don't really have too much concern about them.

To be fair I can't name any characters in a lot of single entry movies, and of those I can I'm lucky to get more than one name. I tend to remember roles and actors more than the characters. Like (don't laugh) I, Robot is probably top 10 movie of all time and I've seen it many times. Off the top of my head I remember Sonny by name. Then the other characters in my head are Will Smith, the awkward scientist girl, the old scientist that gets killed, Will Smith's grandma, the badass police chief that shotguns robots, the annoying kid who drives around, and the AI that controls the building. Like I know the cast well, but names? If I tried really hard I could probably name half of them (Will Smith, scientist girl, and evil AI names on the tip of my tongue) but man it's hard. I think Will Smith's character is named Detective Spooner?

How about Groundhog Day, another of my favorites that is one of my most watched movies of all time. I remember Phil and Ned because they yell each other's names a lot but the heck if I remember the main girl's name or much of anyone else's. But I remember roles in the movie.

You really need to be part of a series or have a really strong main character to have easily named characters. Or have a bunch of people talking about the movie nonstop I guess.
