If buyers do not close out-of-the-money options in a timely manner, they will expire worthless.Emotional trading is not only prevalent in options but also in the stock market. As the meme below humorously suggests, trading options after drinking alcohol will likely lead to losses.Share the pitfalls in options trading in the comments section to win tiger coins~

Major U.S. banks will begin reporting fourth-quarter 2023 earnings on Friday, starting with jpmorgan Chase, Citigroup, Wells Fargo and Bank of America.Us bank shares surged in the fourth quarter, helped by a return to risk appetite amid expectations of lower interest rates. At the business level, investment banking and wealth management, which suffered a significant drag last year, are likely to get a boost. However, as the lagged effects of higher interest rates may continue to ripple through the economy, the large inflow of high-interest deposits and the slowdown in lending business growth suggest that banks' net interest income is at risk of declining.In addition, in a high interest rate environment, the depressed market investment environment led to a continued decline in trading reven

SPX has one major strategic advantage over SPY…. SPX is a European Style Option vs SPY being an American Style Option. This means that SPX is cash-settled at the expiration date, so it cannot be exercised prior to expiration as SPY can. An early exercise can blow your trading plan for any position!  If it wasn’t for this huge early expiration exercise risk with SPY, I would prefer SPY over SPX.
