    I dont think theres a thing called an inverse strangle. Where Im from we call it a disaster.

    I reentered my 170/165P for next week at half size. Also lightened my CC. There's a risk this annoying PA can go on for another week.

    Ok this is what we have right now. I don't know why it runs this way and closes the week this way, but this is a bullish pattern. One of the most basic. For this pattern to play out, TSLA needs to break out of 182 and keep going. But, if there's some news over the weekend, it might be too late...

    I may regret it later, but it's too sticky. 15 DTE+ call premiums are flat compared to end of Wednesday. Looks like people are still positioning bullishly. On the macro side, VIX's actually down today. Likely that SPY and QQQ will bounce shortly. I will observe and get back in after the bounce.

    yes. Why not? TSLA regularly drops $10 a day. Days like today dont make me question my plan. 187.5+ will.

    The trip to 500+ was on my mind when I predicted we would see 170-150 @250 last year. Different timeframes. You cannot let a multi year read dictate what you do today, and today Im still betting on low 160s first

    They are 2 different companies with different life cycles. Just because they were highly correlated during a specific window of time doesn't mean they will again. TSLA the stock will only do as well as Tesla the company. That being said, many seem to think TSLA is a dog atm. Dead stock? Don't...

    NVDA has a forward PE of 46 at 1140. Its EPS has grown 700% YOY TSLA has a forward PE of 70 at 176. EPS has decreased YOY. So who's smarter? Big money buying NVDA at 1140 or us holding TSLA at 176?

    The reason it has not dropped yet is this. The 10 weekly SMA is currently hanging below at 170. The trend is bullish as long as TSLA remains above this SMA. Therefore, I expect when TSLA finally trades below it to get to low 160s, it will be a short lived affair, which means the timing has to be...

    Agreed The funny thing is nobody ever priced stuff like Grok into TSLA valuation. We know Elon can't take Optimus or FSD away. And we know AGI requires TSLA level of hardware to collect data for and train. More fear, more opportunities. That's why I think Elon's "not comfortable" comment was...

    thats a lesson Elon will never learn, so I guess we all have to put on special glasses while viewing these reveals.

    Uncertainty is sometimes the best reason to buy. People tend to assign the worst outcome to an uncertain scenario, while in fact, its not uncertain at all. Its up to 1 man. So, do you think Elon will shrug it off and find other ways to get what he wants or do you think hell just say **** it and...

    such is the nature of a democracy. We had 2 parties to the contract: Elon Musk and TSLA shareholders collectively. TSLA shareholders voted to approve the package.

    Just anecdote. I live about 45 minutes from Giga Austin.

    all 3 were unreasonably low. at the time we knew LR model y was going to be ~50k. so 50k for a model Y vs an AWD CT, both of which were getting 300 miles? no one in their right mind should choose a model Y, unless they think the CT is fugly. The $40k single motor? At the time model 3 with 262...

    everything TSLA is selling a car for way more than what you think its worth based on its specs. TSLA is able to do this because demand > supply. You seem to think this is a problem, but if TSLA cuts CT prices without changing the specs, I bet you will be the first to say "demand has evaporated...

    to be honest, I think these put spreads are the easier trade atm. My mid term bias is UP, to 250. I know there's nothing on the horizon that can lift it, but I don't make the rule. The falling wedge demands 250 to be tested before another big drop. The fact that most people feel bearish makes...

    Wrong. So wrong. Go on Reddit and post a random question about graphic cards and have your reality shattered. Any random meme site will show you millions of people crave their GPUs for gaming. NVDA holds 18% of global GPU market share. But, there's more: it holds 80% of global discrete GPU...

    I'm fairly confident we'll see low 160s. There's a very very very small chance I'll be wrong. We're talking about a super rare wave pattern followed by a super (too) deep retracement that ends up resulting in price rocketing next week. I can only say this: if I'm wrong and we see 188 first as...
