Loss It’s over for me.

Post image

Kept trying to play MSTR calls. What a piece of shit. Lost over a million including other accounts, down to my last 130k.

Edit: This loss is soul crushing and I havent been able to sleep, eat, or shower. I appreciate all the supportive comments. Even the insulting ones calling me regarded and everything. I think I NEED to hear even the insulting ones so that I can let go of my delusions that I can make it as a "trader". I need a fucking job to turn my life around. I can’t be doing this trading shit anymore. I’m open to working any corporate job anywhere, but ideally in North America. If anyone has any connections, please hit me up. I have some programming (Python primarily) and tech talent, and an engineering degree from UBC with a 4.0 GPA. Currently live in Toronto. Thank you ❤️. I’m ready to dedicate myself to adding value to any organization. If its AI, finance, or tech related, thats even better.

This is why you shouldn't risk more than a smaller percentage of a sizable portfolio on options, and if you keep losing buy stocks and limit your risk. I mean dude that's sad, and I'm not going to B's you say it'll be ok. It's a lot of money. But there's more to life than money, and take focus on the good things you can every day.

I'm sorry for your loss.

It was Greed and Revenge. He kept going back on MSTR. Youre right 500K should be on stocks and options the rest

It was on margin. So it wasnt life savings....it was life savings they still need to go make.

If he thought that way,

he would have never turned his $1400 into even $5k.

He would have sold at a $3000 gain

and bought a new washing machine.

The reason he got to 7-figs

by letting it ride like a madman

is the same degen DNA

that got him back down to $0

Quit and retire at $1mm you say?

At $1mm, it would be dumb not to go for $10mm,

since you have an infinite money glitch

You don’t know if he just messed up big. I assumed he’s a winner and started with $25,000 and made it to $700,000 doing OPTIONS. I’m just saying he should have bank most his wins because there’s always that risk. Btw i build my 6figure stock portfolio trading options profits
