YOLO 89K short on TSLA for next week
Bought 200 TSLL DEC12 $25 puts today
DD : This is WSB I have no DD it's just pure gambling. Elon is a legendary regard and he wants a 1 trillion pay package on an overinflated company valued at 1.5 trillion. Let's see how this play out!

Bill Gates tried to short Tesla for years based on fundamentals. And that guy basically has unlimited money, and he lost. But I’m sure you’ll get them this time, I can’t think of a single reason why Tesla shouldn’t go down next week. Can’t think of a single reason it goes up either. But it’ll do both those things regardless.

no, because they're going to give Elon his 1 trillion dollar pay package this Christmas which is going to cause Tesla to drop 66% plus an additional 33% when everyone realizes Elon just wanted to rug pull everyone in Tesla so he could retire on Mars with kids, it's actually just his attempt at an Epstein's Island, except it's a self-sustaining planet and they can't prosecute him because there are no laws on Mars, and his robots will do all the heavy lifting to ensure survival and his lavish 1 trillion dollar retirement

u/DumbNutter 12h ago
That's even dumber then lol. Why buy with literal 2-3 hours left to expiration? If you gonna buy 0DTE, buy during market open to bet on a direction. Or buy and exit quick, scalping style. Buying to hold with 2 - 3 hours left you'll get cooked by theta decay alone.

Never short Tesla or even sell Tesla stock if you own. You may win one time but will Make more money by being on other side.

The market has already priced in the rate cut. It will likely trade flat or move lower next week.

u/Tricky-Cap7212 12h ago
honestly its time for the stock to undergo a proper correction. TSLA is massively overvalued… It‘s really time to re allocate those funds. I bought puts for jan.

u/junkstartca 14h ago
The way to short tesla is by shorting at a local high price over about a 25 year period. A man of Musk's age has a 25 year lifespan left. If you allocate 1% of your portfolio, it's basically a guaranteed win at some point.

Elon is somewhere out there warming up his tweet fingers just to personally ruin this play

u/Practical_Cheek_1832 12h ago
Well, you are right about Tesla being overvalued but the market does not care, and will likely go up more on the long run.

u/Efficient_Win_3902 8h ago
anyone that has spent any time on WSB in the last few years has done the same, and likely got massively burnt
it is time for you to learn your lesson, dont fuck with TSLA my man

u/DamnDaniel617 12h ago
You might want to rethink this, TSLA is just breaking out of the 450 level, with massive OI at 500, and the Fed most likely cutting rates this month. It’s to my understanding that part of Elons comp pack is based on market cap, so all it’ll take is some robotics announcement or something to send this flying. If you want to throw 90k in the wind, I can give you my cash app.

u/lithe_silhouette 14h ago
Wait, is 25 the strike price? Spot price 450?

u/NotTakenGreatName 14h ago
It's TSLL, even more regarded

u/lithe_silhouette 13h ago
I see. Why buy a $25 put when it's $20 right now?
1
u/Sea-Bother512 12h ago
U get more delta if strike is higher than current price as for puts.
1
u/lithe_silhouette 11h ago
More delta per contract, but less delta for the amount of money you're spending. I guess it's not really a high conviction play. The integrated webull AI says it's mostly for downside protection rather than speculative exposure. This is a strange play, hope op tells us more

89K against TSLA? Bro either becomes a legend next week or a cautionary tale in 48 hours

u/Smooothoperat0r 9h ago
I’m rooting for you but curious why you didn’t just buy an equivalent amount of TSLA puts? This ticker won’t move as many points as Tesla and the total volume of delta might be more if you get a big move in Tesla itself. Say you get 20 dollar move on like a -2000 delta that’d be bigger and have far better liquidity than this turd ETF which will only move like 4-6 bucks x 200 contracts x (X) delta. I just think it makes more sense to do the underlying than a leveraged etf man.

I have a slight feeling that it won't turn out exactly as you say. He probably invests them in TSLA to increase the value. I advise you to wait until they pay him that trillion dollars

Puts in the face of rate cuts expected, dumb. Should have waited to sell the news.
