Wild.
I hope it's still there when I get the opportunity.
As long as the tracks haven’t been stolen
Ha
Wasn’t kidding
Oh wow
hopefully jnug acts just like this tomorrow
@Deleted User how many shares do you own?
Not in it right now
@Deleted User planning to buy I guess? You said you hope it increases tomorrow
yeah, plenty of room for profits from today
also $AMD
jnug hopefully gets out of this alltime low, so much room to grow
@Deleted User how did it go?
jnug was pretty unresponsive
made a nice 6.1% on $NIO though
ipo's can be wild
Chinese equivalent of Tesla
@Deleted User nice congrats! I've never bought on IPO day, sounds fun. Closest situation to that I've done is around Earnings Reports.
I don't trust buying earnings reports, even with good news the thing still drops sometimes lol
haha I mostly trade options so Earnings reports are the most fun. You don't have to even bet up and down, but just betting on volatility instead
@Deleted User take the options pill
oosh, I'm too afraid for that right now
@Deleted User My pitch is that it can be safer than stocks. Say I had bought 100 shares of JNUG at the previous close of 7.58, and I also bought a Put option with a strike of 7.50. Then even though JNUG went down to 7.31 today, I have the *option* (literally, the Put option I bought) to sell those shares at the 7.50 strike price. So this was safer than the alternative of not having an option at all.
Yeah I'll have to school myself on options
@Deleted User This is a good intro course https://www.tastytrade.com/tt/shows/step-up-to-options/episodes

A crash course in stop limits
hmny is a tragedy, was looking at it earlier
@ThisIsChris Is this the channel to talk about personal finance?
I just moved into my own apartment and might need some budgeting tips
@Jacob yeah!
Okay great. I have a few questions.
For non-perishable items, is there any reason why I shouldn't just buy massive packages at a time and have it last me the whole year? Why keep going back to the store? There's some good deals on Amazon and I'm thinking I might just buy a few big packages of non-perishable stuff.
I've set a weekly food budget of $75. I haven't decided yet to set a budget for other items because (1) it's much easier to get carried away and spend too much money on food than it is on miscellaneous stuff like haircuts which I just kinda buy as necessary and (2) food needs are pretty consistent, but, for other stuff, I might not need to buy anything one week, while, another week, I might have to buy a lot because something broke / I have a mess to clean up / whatever. Is this fine?
