Finally made it back after a very rough year. Based on my history, I should reach an ATH soon. The question is whether I get wiped out next time it goes down.
You realize a savings account carries less risk and more return right?

When I had 100k i would stop investing in option and put it all in S&P 500 x 5 leverage.
When it continues to have 10% a year than you wll have 780k in just 5 years – the interest cost on the leverage of course.

Dude would have almost $300k if he had just put that shit in SPY like 4 years ago 😂

It’s funny because I always try to scroll with my finger over the chart on these posts

Meanwhile over that same 4 year period the S&P has gone from 3130 to 5486
That’s a 75% gain. Based on your account size that would have been about 110,000 in gains.
Instead you made a 0.20% gain, or 300 bucks on almost 150k
So you’re technically down about 110k still bc you could have done so well with far less effort just being a reasonable person.
You’re very bad at this and should stop.

Hopefully you learned to not yolo on options or shitty stocks. Though you’re back to break even you’ve lost a lot compared to if you had just invested in VOO over the last four years.

Don’t want to burst your bubble but inflation from last four years means your dollars are -30% less.

Congratulations you haven’t lost all your money, which is quite an amazing feat considering your trading options. Will you continue to gamble and risk it all for a lottery ticket at wealth, or will you explore more certain outcomes.

Actually, due to inflation you’re down about 20%. Plus you probably paid a bunch of taxes too.

Maybe quit now while you are somehow not behind.

This is why you pull out profits and stick them in another account that is boring as fuck with growth stocks or Boglehead style and run a traditional dividend reinvest strategy and have it passively compounding while you gamble away in your other account.

Chart looks oversold and ripe for a reversal 
Welcome back to square one. Everybody gets one, don’t forget that.
I am sure it was 4 years of nonstop fun and excitement 
For 4 years you did a whole lot of nothing 🤣
Let’s go
I bet your total out/total in for those 4 years was multimillion. My $20k account had a out / in of $120k and only $900 in profit lmao
Alright, what rules did you learn in that time to get you back to square 1?
You had your peaks.
Need this to happen for me 
far better than ~99% of the sub, so well done.
IRS: Where’s the tax payment for $296.34 gain?
