Gamestop Endgame - Think Aboutif u are a gamestop holder this post is for you. i, the great coinholio, shorted gamestonk last year, buying puts at $1.5 June 2021 for $0.40. i recently sold these puts for the same price, due to hedge fund retards broken IV algos lol. turns out a $300 dropping to $150 makes bots do some crazy options buys... my other position has been a long on the gamecock since $100 and sell at $255 (50%) and $110 (50%). i am all out of gamestock and do not plan to buy back in due to the risk.
if you are still holding, you probably look at wall street bets on reddit and see all these kinds of posts about "short ladder attacks" and "hodl". the truth is, hodl isn't always the right choice. in march 2019, btc hodl was the wrong choice, clearly evident by the halving and the looming toll of corona.
what u have to understand as a trader is that not everyone can make money on these plays. wall street bets wants you to think that this is "regular joe" vs "hedge funds", but cmon, lets get real... these have been hedge funds vs hegde funds 80% of the time. they aren't on the same side, they are always competing against each other and cannabalizing each other, and they have a lot more capital.
lets look at some of my opinions on what really happened
gamefomo retards will point out short interest percentages, and how its over 100%, the will adjust the numbers and calculations and do all this fancy cope, which you will believe because it sounds legit, but let me ask you this: what evidence do you have that these hedge funds didn't just close their shorts earlier and re-short at $400, causing the short interest to stay at the same %? in fact, isn't that what the ideal adversary would do? make you believe that the short interest % is the same place where it would be?
silver? of course nobody is buying silver, but wsb copers want you to believe that these hedge funds are the ones paying for "disinformation campaigns" against "wsb". keep in mine--it is unlikely retail traders are what is moving this market, i think that the primary movers are other hedge funds. they have more capital, are smarter than us, and make use of hft. understand your adversary, and know that in order to win, you must beat the next guy by out running the bear. you will never beat them--it is their job to do this nerd shit bro.
now back to this $400 dollar shorts theory i have. there were a lot of $800 calls that were boughtted a day ago, what was the purpose of this large volume of calls? i tell us my thinks about it: me thinks that these were the same short hedge funds covering for the small probability that wsb can actually drive the shares up past $800. let me tell you what this means: retard hedge funds re-shorted, they are very confident this is the end of the squeeze, but they is not 100% sure, so they put some money in options to cushion the blow in case they are wrong. this is normal action, and not indicative that there is a move upwards again.
the one final thing i want u to think about as a pro trader: imagine you are omniscient god, and know the direction of every stock in teh worl. you are a trillionare, and u are drinking marmalade in trader gandy heaven. you use your powers to know you are at the pivot at the gamestop squeeze, and then you log in to wsb... what kind of posts do you see?
do you see
a: people telling you that the squeeze is done and you should sell (lmao)
or
b: people telling you to keep holding
answer: of course retard, they tell you to keep holding so you can sell. this is a hamster circus, first in first out, last man standing eats the biscuit. gamestop might go to $5000, but the odds are that you will be the one to sell at that price are zero. short ladder attacks dont exist. melvion is out. the endgame is you either selling or getting rekt.
jk, just hold bro, tee-hee! diamond hams!
