Got my tail handed to me by PYPL. Scarred mentally and happy I got out of it. Price today is still lower than my exit number. SQ would be my horse in that space..

yeah agreed, i like sq a lot more between the 2 and it has a much brighter future but it's priced too high for me atm. wanted to play the swing for paypal because i think it's a bit oversold but not sure if it's done falling yet

[sokoloka]

I've said it before and I'll keep saying it - ATEC ATEC ATEC.

Been hovering around ~$12; an excellent entry point as the growth story is nowhere near done yet.

[jaisonline]

HZON warrants gained nearly 22% today. Looked around and didn’t see news.

SEAT warrants continued their nice run. Up 6%.

Opened a position in RBAC warrants. They had a 11% day. Really should have bought under $1.20 when they first announced the SeatGeek merger.

Also a nice day for COTY Calls

I entered my first positions in PYPL years ago, so I am still sitting on a solid 5x at today's prices. I am holding. I think there's good long term potential.

I lost all of my gains over the past year, 96% gone since the 14th of October on BBIG.

I sure hope not, no telling with the rollercoaster it’s been though. I’m holding my position but certainly not adding.

DJ Vivid Seats (SEAT) Price Target Announced at $17.00/Share by Canaccord Genuity”

[chsu74]

Thank goodness I was not stupid enough to hedge all my LCID. Just dumb enough to sell calls on 40% of my holdings…

[jaisonline]

I trimmed a ton of LCID Tues and today.

I’m reviewing the last S-1 again for the next common share lock-up expiration that’s 1/22 . Seeing if it’s worth buying 1/21/22 puts.

Sold all my open longs at $37.25 avg. Bought 8X$30P for next Fri. Will look for a reentry at some point. Am OK if my $28 and $26Cs get exercised tomorrow..

grabbed a few paypal leaps for june for a swing trade. seems to have bottomed out around 234-235 which was the last low in march and may. hopefully earnings or the pre earnings run will pop it back up a bit

also gonna try to play viacom earnings as a last ditch effort on this stock. it had some nice gains after the last 2 earnings but continued to bleed both times right after and i still don't understand how it's at 24b market cap compared to other companies in the sector (roku...). hoping a 3rd straight good earnings will make the market realize how undervalued it is and that their P/S is somehow .89 while they keep continuing to expand. roku is worth twice as much while pluto tv makes half the revenue alone and it's completely free and just a small piece of viac. down quite a lot on it but maybe some things just aren't meant to be lol

[What’s The Time]

Been a little while since I’ve posted on here. Had some trouble accessing my account but I’m back.

Vivid Seats trade has been a great winner so far! Love seeing triple digit % gains on warrants.

Came across some interesting data that backs up what I was mentioning about Vivid taking market share away from Stubhub and competitors.

https://brokergenius.com/ticket-exch...3Wn2KMc5bqMMA0

I mentioned my business does 30%+ of our sales through Vivid. Nice to see that I’m not the only one. Vivid holds a staggering 40% market share according to Brokergenius. Would like to see them continue to close the gap on Stubhub with sports sales, but overall they are crushing it.

Stubhub sold at 4b in early 2020. Holding on to these warrants until Vivid nears that valuation

I have avg on the books at $39 for VIAC but also have made a nice chunk off selling puts and calls over the past few months. Down $2+ on my $45C leaps though. Its a kicker but can’t imagine selling out now with Comcast reporting good numbers today. CMCSA did sell off thought I think.. media is not in vougue atm. It will come around.

Am all in on AUPH. Hope that gets a nice premium. That $30 pin is no different than the $40 VIAC pin for 8 weeks recently..

i started buying leaps for viac around 39 and was averaging down every time it dropped to 37-38 and also have 4 diff sets of them, down about 50% overall because at this point IV is so low from being pushed down constantly into the same price range. to me it feels like this is one of the most undervalued stocks out there but maybe it's still suffering from the stink of the whole bill hwang fiasco or it's something else behind the scenes

Just got a Grasso CNBC pump AH but that rodeo is getting old as well. Closed $37.5Ps sold for a loss. Have no interest in owning more shares at $0.30 higher than market at this point

[jaisonline]

SOFI up 12%. Warrants up 25% 3 hours after the open.

No news so maybe speculation on the bank charter & earnings?

42M volume and day isn't halfway over, this looks like large institutional buying and I think a play to ER on the 10th. I suspect this will be a VERY good ER compared to last quarter as we do not have the same writeoffs from merger costs. Still think it is very expensive here at current revenue levels, I will continue to trim, solid 150% gains since I mentioned these warrants at $4.50. Keeping all of my 2024 LEAPS I mentioned a few pages back though.

What is everyone else doing?

SABR and COTY report this week, going to be interesting couple of days coupled with FED meeting. Accelerated tapering should create a knee jerk reaction for rates to rise, hoping 10yr hits 1.75-2% by year end then will start taking gains in TBT as foreign demand will quickly rise to normalize those yields.

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/airli...165251795.html

"Our bookings for the holidays are basically following the curve that they followed in 2019, which gives us a lot of assurance that there's demand there and you'll see load factors that are pretty typical,"

Also more good news on SABR, trimming a portion of their business and employees which should mean for higher margins. https://finance.yahoo.com/m/51782659...ling-unit.html

TSA travel numbers look great, will be paying close attention to their ER call this week.

AUPH released 30 month A2 numbers today which were great, more positive PR as well as additional suitors. ER this week, after the news on their biggest competitor, Benslyta not having any meaningful impact on new LN patients, if we see a BO, that should put us close to $8B+ with patent protection to 2037.

i rolled all my warrants into 2024 leaps back at 16ish so all i have now are 2023 and 2024 leaps. likely will just hold them patiently. i feel like this is too comfortable of a long term hold to mess around with in the short term

Media pumping?

“4:09p ET 11/1/2021 - Benzinga
SoFi Technologies Scorches Shorts As Stock Soars To New Highs: What's Next?
Mentioned:SOFI
SoFi Technologies, Inc (NASDAQ: SOFI) traded up 12.6% on Monday after breaking up bullishly from a long-term pattern Benzinga called out on Oct. 20.

The online finance company has seen a high level of retail trader interest due to the stock's underlying statistics, which make it a short squeeze candidate:

High Ownership Levels: 58.48% of SoFi's shares are locked up by insiders and institutions, with insiders owning 26.22% and institutions an additional 32.26% of the available shares.
High Short Interest: The number of SoFi shares held short has almost doubled from September. Of the 594.52 share float 46.27 million are held short, up from 24.5 million”

[jaisonline]

Heavily trimmed LCID on the way to $41. Started a Feb 18 $30 Put position since the 6-month lock-up expires around Jan 22 according to the appended S-1.

Note: in hindsight, I should sold covered calls. At one point last Friday, Nov 19 $60 strike were over a $2.00 premium. I would have been happy selling shares of the price.


Bought more SOFI before the recent run-up

Lightly trimmed SEAT warrants at $3.30.

During the last 2 weeks, opened warrant positions in SEAH (Super Wager / BetWay) & RBAC (SeatGeek). Also opened a small position in IONQ while I research. Increase my PENN & DKNG ownership on dips.
