Sold 225 $300 GOOGL calls for $.04 on 3/31, only for them to rocket to $2.50+ the very next day. $18,000 loss that would’ve been a $30K+ gain by holding one additional day. Painful. https://www.reddit.com/gallery/1s9yyjx Posted by BudgetInvestor

jebidiaGA on April 1, 2026 10:12 pm Why not ride it into the ground at that point? I mean, why bother with the stop?
Capt1an_Cl0ck on April 1, 2026 10:17 pm Don’t worry. I cut $60k in losses yesterday. Today it would have been $47k in losses.
just-another-post on April 1, 2026 10:18 pm To clarify, that $18k loss would’be been a $38k+ gain. Why the fuck would you hold until -95% just to paper hand two days before expiry?
ShittyBidet123 on April 1, 2026 10:19 pm this will teach you to never try to save like 3% of your last dollar on a bet when you still have time to win. wtf just let it expire
TomatoSpecialist6879 on April 1, 2026 10:20 pm They were waiting for you to sell so they can finally buy
InfiniteNerve1384 on April 1, 2026 10:23 pm Been there. All good brother. Get the next one and don’t go on tilt.
monkey_lord978 on April 1, 2026 10:23 pm You sold at 10% correction and both indices oversold on the daily
bounceonadick2 on April 1, 2026 10:28 pm So brutal. I’ve had at least 3 massive paydays I can recall of exact same kind of thing happening. Never gets easier
theykeepbanningmebro on April 1, 2026 10:29 pm It’s at $294 so you still have a chance. Orange man might announce peace so it could bust past $300
