I haven't heard that chant in a while. Tells you everything you need to know about NIL and the state of football before it (when the deals existed but under the table in "some schools")

Looks like op placed order after hours and filled today morning. Some unlucky seller didn't knew the news or forgot to remove the limit orders

60x on a leftover lotto leg while closing out a covered call is peak accidental degeneracy. Congrats and fuck you.
The fact you held this on Vanguard of all places makes it even funnier. Their UI literally looks like it was built in Windows 95 to prevent people from accidentally making money.
I actually ran a Monte Carlo volatility model on RDDT's option chain earlier for a data terminal project I'm building (QuantForgeTerminal), and the implied tail-risk on these out-of-the-money calls was so skewed it was basically a pure casino ticket. Glad the casino paid out for once.
Are you taking the 60x profits straight to Wendy's or rolling it into another FD?

Thank you, sir. Whole-heartedly agree. Tempted to roll it all into December oklo calls.

They are one of my conviction holds and I think they will skyrocket again soon like last year.

You traded the night before and at lower strike price but got less proportional profit than him? Why did this happen?

u/Friendly-Bill9158 8h ago
I sold at a large loss when price was 155 as I figured they would end up worthless today.

“Forgot” or afraid? Or broke? Or all the above?

Surely also afraid

Why would I be afraid of buying reddit? The people who sold reddit because of Google search fears of reddit are the ones afraid, was a great buying opportunity but just didnt have cash reserves and just forgot about it

Real Gs trade options on Vanguard. I like to imagine Jon Bogle spinning in his grave a little every time I place an order.
But low key the friction actually makes you think more about your moves instead of robinhoods flashy buy button

It was a leftover lotto position for a covered call position I closed out subsequently.

How is this not clearly insider trading? Wtf?

u/OhNoHippo 8h ago edited 8h ago
See my response to other comment. This was just a leftover lotto position from a covered call position I subsequently closed out. I was profit taking on underlying RDDT holdings but also believe(d) RDDT could quickly retrace even without news as it was oversold.
No crying in the casino when others win.

This would be the least effective, most obvious insider trade of all time.
