There simply is no way you make any real money in the market. The S&P just hit an all-time high yesterday. The Nasdaq was within 100 points of making an all time high yesterday. You really are clueless and just repeat the headlines of the mainstream media.
Meta to pay Trump $25 million for suspending his account.

I see you answered it. Means you dont own stock if you didnt lose money this morning in them. I think you are a loser for not admitting that you did . This is not the first time he caused the market to drop big after his mention of tariffs. His cuts to defense spending did not help either.
You only "lose" money if sell stocks lower than where you bought them. I haven't lost anything. Additionally, I am actually "making" money this morning as my put options are exploding in price. You keep reinforcing your loser mentality I pointed out above.
Like I said, S&P hit an all time high yesterday. And the Nasdaq wasn't far away. The move today, is more about Walmart's earnings guidance. They expect to grow 4% next year instead of the +5% the street expected.
You liberals want military spending now? 😂 😂 Seriously, your hypocrisy knows no bounds.

You magats are OK with lowering military spending now?? Seriously, your hypocrisy knows no bounds.
I at no point did I say I wanted more military spending . Just pointing out that Trump campaigned on building up the military now he says he wants to cut defense spending. Be hard to do both. I am glad you made money on puts today . I too would have bought them during his speech yesterday but the option markets were already closed. By the time they could be traded the market was already way down. My mistake was not knowing he was going to have a speech late yesterday. I will have to pay more attention to that in the future. My question now is how long do you intend to hold those puts ? When will you know when to sell them.?. The S and P 500 was at all time highs but the Dow Jones and Nasdaq were not.

You can cut spending and also strengthen the military. There are plenty of weapons platforms that the military does not want or use that we still fund because it is manufactured in some congressman's district.

No, it's not really. You've never run a business, have you? You can contract certain spending and still grow, improve your operations, and expand productivity. It's funny reading libs poor takes on this. The only ways you believe "growth" can happen is spending more $$$. Hilarious.
He speaks every day. If that's your strategy for success, you're better off giving your money to someone else to manage. You really are uninformed.
For trades in options, I use charting services with programmed algos. The charts were saying "puts" two days ago in some of the symbols I trade. I'll get out when the trade chart is telling me it's over. I use various months and expirations depending how long I think the trade might last. 3 days to 3 weeks. For my investments-long term holds, I buy and hold for years. I'm not really concerned with a one day, one month, six month, or one year blip. There is certain times of year I look to add more to these investment positions.
Nasdaq was just below it's all time high too. Are you surprised a market would have a profit taking day after hitting all time highs???
What about those puts ? Did you buy them yesterday and when do you plan on selling them? Yes there is waste where you are talking about but will it overcome the actual cuts in spending ?
This was not for you Sarge . sorry. He answered my question and was a good answer.
What service do you use Raliegh?. Seems you have a good one. I am interested in it.
My broker is schwab and Interactive Brokers. I used to have OptionsXpress. I've bounced around between charting services for 25 years. Many have been acquired by E-Signal or TradeStation over that time. I work with the ones which allow you to build out your charting parameters and time frames. Most still have that as an option you can select.
My broker is Schwab I was unaware they had charting services. How can I find this service on their site or should I use another site that is better?
I dont use schwab for charts, however their charting platform is ThinkorSwim, which they acquired not long ago. You used to be able to build out and customize the charts to your wishes. I assume you still can. I had some friends that were very pleased with them.
