Options saved my portfolio
tl;dr - chased losses from pennystocks and bled for 5 months but got lucky with some calls to break even
hello fellow regards, just wanted to share some of my gains since i don't really have anyone else to share with.
a little bit about my journey into degeneracy, everything started when i saw some posts about some pennystocks in october which led to me trying to chase losses for months until last week. at the time, i was totally naive and fully believed that every pennystock was "going to the moon!" or "the next gamestop" which led to me bagholding (i didn't know when to take profit). following this was a series of bad bets and my eventual discovery of options. recently thought it'd be a good idea to bet on fertilizers (NTR) even though it already ran up since the start of the war, which dropped my account to near zero.
decided to yolo my last bit of money on MU calls after seeing it massively drop from ATH and recovered a decent portion of my portfolio. then bought some calls on AEHR which leaves me a little bit in the green all-time. that 50C is the only position i have open and i'm planning on selling half depending on how tomorrow goes.
fully aware that i got extremely lucky here and will be taking a break from the casino for a while.
