Last year, I learnt a new skill. I attended the recent Tiger Webinar on stock/option investment. One of the speakers (Terence, if my memory serves me right), shared about 0DTE option strategy. This new year, I put this skill into real practice. My first trade of 2026 was a SPY 0DTE Call. I used 1-minute candle stick chart to decide on the entry and exit. It's closed shortly after its open and yielded positive results. Not a big win but feeling happy nevertheless [Miser] ! Thanks to Tiger platform for organising the webinar. Happy New Year to all Tigers and may all have profitable investment for 2026.
$iShares Silver Trust(SLV)$ On leave today and watched this pulled back to below $70 in the 24-hr market. Bought @69.18 and sold @70.90. Trades complete in 45 minutes using cash boost account. Small win but feel good nevertheless.
$NVDA 20260116 100.0 PUT$ Sold this naked put during April when the US market crashed. The thought process then was to buy the NVDIA shares at a discount ($100)! Now from hindsight, it is possible but not probable. Nevertheless, I am equally happy to just keep the premium[Miser]
I started accumulating over time the 3 Singapore banking shares (DBS, UOB, OCBC) since more than 25 years ago. I started buying DBS as low as $18 and OCBC $4. My original intent was to have them serve as my retirement nest egg. The dividend payout was consistently at 5-6% yoy. The total values plus the dividends payout had compounded to about 5 times of the initial invested amount. This is definitely able to combat the inflation impact over time. Since I joined Tiger platform, I started accumulating more of these banking shares. I also invest in US, HK stock, options and other SG counters in a balanced manner because I believe all eggs must not be in one basket, neither should all baskets be in the same building. Investing in SG ba
$OCBC Bank(O39.SI)$ I started investing in stock market more than 25 years ago. The journey was primitive and manual. I studied fundamental and technical analysis, reading newspaper for data before reaching trading decision. Calling the agent to place a trade was a norm. Out of the 3 main Singapore banks (OCBC, UOB, DBS), I chose OCBC as my first banking shares for the simple reason, this was the only one affordable then ($4.00). Each lot size was 1,000 shares. Slowly saving bits by bits, I added on UOB, DBS and other Singapore REIT. Most of them yielded consistent 5-6% dividends payout yoy price running on a steady uptrend. I call this 'the dummy way by
$NVDA 20260320 175.0 CALL$ Used Tiger AI to help analyse my total portfolio. Using the output, I decided to close this to better rebalance portfolio besides realising profit. I remain long term bullish for $NVDA and I still have that 'wheel strategy' intact and running (shared in my previous writeup).
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ I'm bullish for the long term. This stock is rather volatile over the past few weeks. I am selling and rolling weekly OTM covered calls to collect premiums ✌️
For those bullish over NVDIA, this provides a balanced insight. As I always say, fall in love with your money and not the specific shares. Risk mitigation is important when investing. Happy investing!
@Lanceljx:NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA) — Key Takeaways and Outlook --- 1. What to make of Jensen Huang’s speech at GTC Washington, D.C. Huang’s keynote reaffirmed NVIDIA’s leadership ambitions in the AI era and introduced compelling details. Key highlights: He framed the moment as “America’s AI-native industrial century” with a full-stack approach — hardware, software, infrastructure, robotics. Announcements included major advances: a roadmap of next-gen architectures (for example, the roadmap towards “Blackwell Ultra”, “Vera Rubin”, “Rubin Ultra”), also new networking/photonic gear to scale data centres. A strong national-industrial tone: Huang emphasised purpose beyond just profit — building America’s “backbone” of AI infrastructure. For investors this translates into: the narrative
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ I'm long term bullish on NVIDIA. However, it's been extremely volatile with the share price fluctuating in the range of <$170 to $195+ for the past one month. To capture some profits along the way riding on the volatility wave, I had been capturing some premiums by taking the following steps: - selling weekly $165 put (when shares slipped to < $170 and undergoing a quick rebounce) - instead of buying more shares, I bought one time Jan 2026 $168 call (when shares slipped to <$170; this serves as synthetic shares to cushion further short of higher value calls) - selling weekly $195 covered calls (when shares rebounced above $185 and premium looks lucrat
Sell to close $INTC 20260116 29.0 CALL$ Buy to close $INTC 20251031 41.0 CALL$ $INTC had been on a gradual run for the past one month. It's now softening and running out of steam. Closed the diagonal pair for 140% profit [Miser] . Always fall in love with your money and not any specific shares [Smile] .
$INTC 20260116 29.0 CALL$ Bought this when $INTC uptrend just started. It is now in deep ITM state. I intend to keep this for some time since it is still in steady uptrend. To combat the time decay, I sell weekly far distance OTM calls to collect premiums.
$NVDA 20251219 168.0 CALL$ I am long term bullish on NVDA. When its share price was fluctuating in turbulence last few weeks nosediving below $180, I bought this long term Call to serve as 'synthetic shares'. When the share price rebounded above $185, I then sold 20251024 195.0 Call with the intent to capture handsome premium from the time decay. The pair is currently moving at the anticipated direction ✌️.
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ Last Friday, the share price ended at $187.66. I thought my covered call of $187.50 then would have been exercised with the shares sold. To my surprise, my NVDA shares are still intact and continue to be on volatile uptrend. This week I continue with selling weekly covered calls but raised the strike price to $195 with $3.71 as the premium. The covered call pairs are moving at the right anticipated direction ✌️.
