Kid played complex option chains and didn't even understand how it really worked. Sounds like Robinhood pushes this stuff like it's some kind of fun game.

I like WSB but yeah, it does inadvertently foster trading like this. Not sure what his moves were. SPY calls?

No clue. I know the basics of options but I don't trade them myself yet, still learning. I learned early on that investing ain't something to fuck around with unless you know what you're doing. Especially if the money being invested is important.

Options trading is literally gambling. I stay away from it.....the HTF guys have it all sewed up. The fix is pretty much always in. Add to that the Fed buying up debt...yeah, it's basically not much more than luck if you manage to time a call or put. Extremely dangerous.
