Their share lock up expired. all the insiders prolly dumping shares might not be a bad idea.

Macro Bank Inc (BMA)

Unsure how you like to trade - I scalp.
I've done 0 Research on this company. I know nothing about it.

I just put it into my Screener & hit a few variables i wanted to hit.
Why's the share price between 5-7% growth today? - Can you short it on the drop?... Is it news.

Unsure. 0 Interest in trading it myself or doing any research for it.

wtf why isn't the market closed today? just saw.

I'm gonna be real with you, they're involved with some really shady chit in Asian markets and are under massive investigation rn. While they control the prosecutors, courts, and govt. in the US, they do not wield the same power overseas. What they're facing now will be the death of them, so my 5-10 prognosis on Goldman Sachs is Chapter 7 and a stock at $0.

Im much better at trading options then stocks. My stock trading was bad overall because I was not letting winners ride long enough and would hold onto losers for too long. With options I just plan all my plays so that I dont put myself in that scenario.

you got portfolio margin?

what broker is that

[Venom08]

As a retail trader, it's so much harder to preserve capital when constantly trading options though.... When I get a $500,000 portfolio again, I'll stick to shares and ETFs. Most of my options trades will be to hedge, and maybe a hail mary long or short on some stock if I don't have the cash for shares.

Big Daddy Elon basically equaling out todays 'losses' for me. Ty fam if you're reading this. TFW you got in at like $240 i think. Fukkkk always wish you got more.... quick return of peace but it's still a long term hold for this guy

[vietcong666]

The broker is Robinhood. I use them because there is no cost per options contract and no commission. I have no margin abilities on my Robinhood account. Usually on most brokerages you cant trade options using margin since it is much more risky.

Yeah I have issues with sizing an options now. As my options account grows, I have to make sure I don't scale up the size of my trades too much otherwise my risks per trade will keep getting bigger. I think for options its best to just limit the account size to prevent too much exposure. Trading options isnt really a scalable strategy unless you are going complete YOLO.

Have you ever gotten so many options you've owned a chain? I've done that and it's so chit trying to get out.

[dopamine72]

I have to say this again....Just lol @ DIS, what a chit company all around as far as investing goes. Their chart has stayed nearly flat the past 7+ years, and their dividend is absolute poverty just a little over 1% lololol

Bob Igor has been on every news channel getting "interviewed" for the past 3 months about Disney plus and they keep pimping Disney plus in all sorts of commercials, ads, etc. Whatever they say as a company to the public is manipulative bullchit, i.e.

Disney, in a tweet, said it was working hard to fix the errors, which were caused by “consumer demand [that] exceeded our high expectations.”

Exceeded their high expectations? More like they're trying really REALLY hard to pump the stock with words because anyone with half a brain knows they've been losing money the past few years with ESPN, the theme parks and streaming competition. Not to mention all of their content is kids stuff and they RAPED star wars. They're doing a terrible job with the extraordinary amount of assets they have.... Too bad they couldn't just admit that their streaming platform was not up to par tech wise, hence the chit service this morning. I would have more respect for them if they did.

I remember when Bob was asked about being late to the game for the streaming wars...He completely denounced the question and basically said it didn't matter that they were just now coming out with their streaming service. Hmmmmmmm 5+ years of missing out on streaming revenue doesn't matter????? OK BOB

I can see right through this company, total Hollywood style of trying to market their content with lies. They still have yet to hit their ATH of 147 something which they got to earlier this year via streaming anticipation. I knew their stock wouldn't do chit after the streaming service was released. The company hasn't been ran properly for the longest time and they really need some new people at the top because Bob is not a business man at all, clearly.

I still like Disney too, so its a shame to be writing this. But as an investor its about the worst company I've ever put my money into and I'm glad I got out of it when I did. I would like their stock to go up, but its been a long time coming and still has not happened. Their earnings last week should have brought the stock up and over the ATH's but it didn't.

Hopefully the stock will go up soon because if it doesn't then well, that's pathetic.

There were a few times where I made up over half the volume of a few different strikes when entering or exiting a position haha. This happened several times to me when trading options on smaller companies but this is usually where I would find mispriced options. When i need to exit these positions quickly ill end up taking a few K hit on the bid ask spread.

Yeah I think Disney is a great company but they have just been coasting the past decade similar to Microsoft between 2000 and 2014. Streaming does look like the right next step for them, but I think they need to bring in a new CEO and maybe CFO to really transform and grow the company.

[topperstyle]

Funny you say that, because I was equally as thrown when a girlfriend of mine brought it up. Got in this am @ 39.95 - down a bit, but hopefully this pays off in a long game

[Berts]

Anyone every look at ETSY?

Any idea why the huge drop in the last couple weeks?

[dopamine72]

Holy chit.....The day after I post about DIS it has one of their largest gains of the year and reaches a new ATH....

I heard some analysts on TV saying they were lying about how many subscribers they got too, LOL, just like I was saying they lie to pump their stock

Gonna be interesting to see how this plays out, I'm guessing it will go up a lil more then come right back down

Agreed bro

[topperstyle]

hopefully they will start to get creative and this can be a slow gainer
