Just buy something that's a month out from expiration with a mark 20% lower than the trading price.

WELL, YOU CAN STILL WATCH THE CARNAGE /LIVE/ VIA 30Y TREASURIES
>all us indices have hit circuit breakers >30Y treasuries just hit a new world record a few minutes ago This is fantastic. It's like circumventing the parental blocks that schools set-up on their WiFi and getting access to unfiltered fucking internet porn, except it's the fucking US stock market
Means there is almost a billion dollars (and climbing) worth of selling pressure on the S&P 500 right now in the futures market that is stuck cuz the exchange won't allow anymore selling below the current price. This does not include the micros or the other indexes. When thst restriction is lifted at 9:30 AM eastern time all hell breaks loose. In short it's ogre

3000+ at the open, futures trading has been halted when futures got to 2500.
Nathan Williams
do other indexes even have circuit breakers or is it US only? DAX literally not stopping
Most people are going to jump from windows by tomorrow right? This is probably way worser in a different way than 1929.

People seem to be confused. There is a limit to selling. Everyone and there mother is going to want to short and buy put options, but they can't. Isn't enough to go around. Market can only drop so far.

>Am I a dumbass who is missing out, or is just buying and selling stock normally totally fine?
You can "bet" on whether stocks will go up or down without buying options, just buy the inverse ETFs Then there are leveraged inverse ETFs Just like options though they can still fuck you, I am still sitting on some SQQQ I'm hoping will moon on Monday so I can finally take profits
Julian Price
What happens when it becomes negative?

The intended purpose of options is to reduce risk it's only wsb zoomers who have popularized literal gambling via options lately. You have plenty of time to ease yourself into it so trade stocks for now and read up to learn how to use options for hedging when you're ready

Nolan Morgan
I feel for people who held over the weekend and bet on a pump come Monday thinking it was going to be like last Friday-Monday pump. There will be a lot of bodies dropping out of skyscraper windows
Not true. You have no clue how bonds work. The yield is going down because the treasury market is getting bought like no other. price of bonds goes up = doc yields down You are trading growth / equity for a lower % yield.
