   It’s ok to gamble, you just can’t gamble in the wrong direction.

   It’s only gambling if you lose.

   My dumb ass was expecting the first spike to be a lie like every other speech the last few months so bought 0dte puts hoping for a sharp reversal.

    I do not care about JPOW or his speeches. I only care about making money for myself and my hedge fund masters.

    It doesn’t matter what the hell he says, it can be hawkish as shit, but no matter what the market goes up whenever he speaks because they take the slightest hint to be – BULLLISH BULLISH BULLISH. JPow scratches nose -> BULLISH.

    or you should buy straddles… SPX $3960 straddle at 1:30 was $4k. EOD is was $12k. that’s +200% profit. would have been even more if you did a OTM straddle

    So, here’s the thing. All of you guys who are actually trying to improve your game. start a paper account. Don’t do anything with it except try to trade the FED decisions / speeches before each one happens

    See how your performance goes. I was going to say after 5 years but I don’t think many of you would make it that long

    It’s a fun thought experiment though and will teach you exactly why it is such a regarded idea

    With options there’s a 50% chance of success: you either win or lose.
