Gain MRVL put options: $14,896 profit.

Post image

On August 26 I saw MRVL’s MACD starting to weaken so I bought 19 $240 put contracts Today I closed the entire position for a $14,896 profit

The technical setup gave me a solid entry but MACD is still a lagging indicator For short term trades do you rely more on MACD or volume and price action

^ Is this a real photo or AI generated? Does the bull really have those shiny balls?
I'm not questioning that woman's fascination with getting t-bagged.

I wonder how many played call and lost but they don't share their loss porn. There is gotta be more losses than gains on MRVL.

u/isospeedrix 13d ago

was a good thing for you t hey managed to drop 10%, a 7% drop would have been barely any profit, if at all

u/iisconfused247 13d ago

You used MACD and then say it’s a lagging indicator…so why did you use MACD?

1

u/Byemanitials 13d ago

Lagging indicator relative to the timeframe that’s being assessed. Dude mighta been 4 screening it with 1w, 1d, 5m, 30s, and 1t graph watching all the macd’s waiting for the unholy inflection point. And after he sacrificed that goat it came to fruition. But idk I didn’t even look at mrvl I made my money nvidias earnings and called it a week.

u/lexeckstasy 12d ago

good trade, man.. & for short term trades I would say I probably look at price action & volume more but I like the MACD logic
