Thats a good strategy!

Everyone has what works for them. I have 90% of my stock holdings in the big boys that pay dividends. I'm not a big fan of options trading myself, but I completely understand why people love it.

I trade in a more traditional sense. 10% portfolio in the higher risk stuff, but i mitigate risk by making safe, calculated trades based on charting (and of course never have the full 10% in one ticker). Play the intraday moves, lock away the profits in the form of shares and sell the whole position when the big pop comes. rinse and repeat.

News can jack up my strategy a little, but overall i come out on top. My 3.88s from yesterday obviously didn't bode well, but I added at 3.75, averaged down, flipped the majority on the bounce. A few measly shares locked away lol. watching for reentry, though im not sure it'll be today.

S&P 500 is rolling over, a lot of good tickers are down 2%+. I think Nio is fairing well today given the overall market headwinds.

If you're an options fan, have you considered a long call here? I did see some January 7$ calls for $.75 this morning. Not too bad looking to me on the risk side, but since I'm not an options guy, I'm honestly not sure if thats a good one or not...

Enjoy, your day, GLTY. I'm off to bed (im on the other side of the planet).
