Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By HiramRanger: How low do you see it going? Back into the $1-$5 range? I can dump out with a small profit now and buy back on a major dip. This is in my IRA, so not money I'm looking to withdraw for another 15-20 years. I need to make some good profits to recover from the financial devastation of cancer. I know that will entail risk, but I don't see me banking enough to retire well on without taking some risk. I'm just curious as to what you think the risk exposure is with this stock at the moment? In the end, it's not even $1,000 bucks invested, but it all adds up. I don't see it going that low for a long time. They have crazy cash on hand and then all the warrants at $9. And they have 0 debt. |

Just bought 100 shares of BBIG for $10.82 and promptly sold an $11.50 Call for Sept 17th for $210.
The way I look at it if my shares get called away I'll have sold my shares for a locked in profit of $13.60 and if it doesn't execute my cost basis will be $8.70 for 100 shares. Heres to hoping it doesnt fall below $8.70 lol

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By TheTech-1: Technically HCMC is still working on the lawsuit there is still hope. Out of the rest id consider keeping ME.. at some point it should recover… the others id strongly consider a point to get out of each. @TheTech-1 thanks, I planned on keeping $ME. Honestly the others were small investments, mostly under $200 in each. I doubt I break even or really get close, but if I sell I lock in the loss. I'm thinking about leaving them on my balance sheet as a reminder to not be an idiot and do my own DD and shit. Although I did just YOLO 3 more shares of BBig so what do I know?>

Given that the shorts have access to the same info as everyone else, and are likely more sophisticated traders than the average retail investor, why would they keep doubling down on their BBIG position rather than unwind at the first hint of becoming a squeeze target? Especially in light of what happened with the likes of GME and AMC? If anything, one would think once they became a target for a short squeeze, they would unwind their short positions and turn it into a pump and dump on the hype to recover whatever losses they incurred from the initial short trade. It's really hard to unwind it now. This is something to remember for all the Covered Call people, too. We preach how awesome covered calls are, but this is where it can get dangerous. A few of us here (myself, KaiK, myfakename, tornadochaser, etc.) have already mentioned the pressure of having a volatile stock holding like BBIG locked up with calls. Example: You generally sell the call on an upswing to try to capture the nice premium. The underlying stock then takes off even further and you're holding those calls that cost quite a bit more to buy back. This is now where it gets dangerous so to speak, because of emotions. So what does a person do? Well, you can either do the "safe" thing (so long as you sold those calls above your cost basis) and hold them until expiry and make/retain profit although possibly miss out on a moon. BUT, you still made profit. Or you can wait for a dip and buy them back at a lower premium IF it ever goes back down, rinse and repeat...this is what we strive to do. Or, you can bet on the upward movement of the stock and buy those calls back HOPING that it still runs, but that buyback will cost you a pretty penny. That's where greed can bite you. The gamble is a good one if the stock continues to run, but you can lose quite a bit on that call buyback if it hovers and then sinks if the pump has already crested and then dumps. the medium play is to roll those calls out. This is great and all, but just like the paragraph above, there's risk. The longer you roll, the possibility of the pump and dump running it's course and finally dumping increases. So your original intent of the roll can be fettered if your intent is to play options until a time when you feel it's appropriate to dump your shares. because, the stock could plummet below your cost basis and you may actually lose more than what you've gained on options plays. All because the stock is locked up in an option that would cost you quite a bit to unwind. Be careful on selling calls on possible pump and dumps. I'm a big advocate on covered calls, but I'm still down $2050 (realized) because of a greedy call buyback I did. I'll probably recoup that loss easily, but you never know. |

Shorts trying to shake as many people out as possible. Today BBIG hit 2 all time highs. Finished 5% up from yesterday. Released a really good proxy showing 0 debt and 127,000,000 cash on hand and another 500,000,000 if warrants are exercised. Or there is cashless warrant thing too. The shorts are still short. Tons of options still in the money. More than yesterday. |

AMC Entertainment Holdings (AMC -0.8%) CEO Adam Aron says the company has made contact with GameStop (GME +0.6%) on a partnership of some sort, but says it is not ready to divulge the nature of the offer.
In general, the theater operator says it is on the offensive to get moviegoers back into the theater with an "epic" $25M advertising blitz. GameStop reports earnings after the closing bell, but may not take questions during the earnings call again. |
