SHORT SELLERS HAVE LOST OVER $175 BILLION IN 2023‼️ 0DTE OPTIONS ARE LIKELY TO CAUSE A FLASH CRASH IN THE STOCK MARKET MUCH LIKE THE 1987 FLASH CRASH‼️ Every time the #VIX spikes, FAILURES TO DELIVER on #UVXY skyrocket. This is a clear indication that the FED or Plunge Protection Team are Naked Shorting the VIX to cause Gamma squeezes on the #SPY‼️ THIS artificially props up markets. 0DTE" stands for "Zero Days To Expiry," and it refers to options contracts that are set to expire on the same trading day they are opened. Trading 0DTE options can carry significant risks, and there are systemic dangers associated with this practice. 0DTE options are extremely sensitive to price movements because they have no time value left. Any price changes in the underlying asset can have an immediate and amplified impact on the option's value. This heightened sensitivity can lead to rapid and substantial gains or losses. Traders have very little time to react or adjust their positions when trading 0DTE options. In traditional options trading, if a position is going against the trader, they may have the flexibility to adjust or exit the position before expiration. With 0DTE options, there's no time for such adjustments. Due to the short time frame, traders may need to execute multiple transactions within a single day when trading 0DTE options. This can result in higher transaction costs, including commissions and bid-ask spreads, which can significantly impact overall profitability. Options with zero days to expiry may have lower liquidity compared to options with more time until expiration. Lower liquidity can lead to wider bid-ask spreads, making it more challenging to enter and exit positions at favorable prices. Gamma measures the rate of change of an option's delta relative to changes in the price of the underlying asset. 0DTE options, being very close to expiration, can have high gamma. This means that the option's delta can change rapidly with small movements in the underlying asset's price, leading to rapid gains or losses. The short time frame of 0DTE options makes them susceptible to market manipulation and front running. Traders with advanced technology and information may attempt to exploit price movements for their advantage, potentially harming retail traders. Trading 0DTE options is highly speculative, and it may attract traders looking for quick, short-term gains. This speculative nature can contribute to increased market volatility and systemic risks, especially if a significant number of market participants are engaging in such trades. Top holders of #UVXY consist of market makers that are also heavily shorting meme stocks such as #AMC, including #Susquehanna, #Citadel, and #JaneStreet, indicating a correlation in market volatility between meme stocks and the VIX. Much like AMC, market makers are diluting the UVXY in order to suppress spikes in the VIX. This means that the #VIX, $AMC, #Gamestop have a high likelihood of achieving new all-time highs. Funds are flowing out of the system towards money market funds and more secure assets such as T-Bills. Despite this, stock prices continue to rise as many investors maintain leveraged long positions and seek to "extract alpha" by shorting in-the-money put options and going long on calls. This strategy compels brokers to hedge in a manner that influences the very stocks involved in these transactions through synthetic positions. Simply, they have no choice but to continue their ponzi in pursuit of preventing further losses. This is the black swan of 2024, and almost no one will see it coming. Make sure you're properly hedged.

$SPY $QQQ $MSFT 👇🏻📝 $SPY filled the gap to 404; be careful about continually shorting this sell-off. Bounces are normal as the trend moves lower. The past few days' aggressive sell-off with unfilled gaps shows momentum, but it always requires some distribution and sideways price action to maintain it.See more

You should consult your legal, tax, or financial advisors before making any financial decisions. This material is not intended as a recommendation, offer, or solicitation to purchase or sell securities, open a brokerage account, or engage in any investment strategy.

Product offerings and availability vary based on jurisdiction.

Stocks, ETFs, Options, Bonds.
Self-directed brokerage accounts and brokerage services for US-listed, registered securities, options, and Bonds, except for treasury securities offered through Jiko Securities, Inc., are offered to self-directed customers by Open to the Public Investing, Inc. (“Public Investing”), a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA & SIPC. Additional information about your broker can be found by clicking here.

Securities products offered by Public Investing are not FDIC insured. Apex Clearing Corporation, our clearing firm, has additional insurance coverage in excess of the regular SIPC limits. Additional information can be found here.

Options.
Certain requirements must be met in order to trade options. Options can be risky and are not suitable for all investors. Options transactions are often complex, and investors can rapidly lose the entire amount of their investment or more in a short period of time. Investors should consider their investment objectives and risks carefully before investing in options. Refer to the Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options before considering any options transaction. Supporting documentation for any claims, if applicable, will be furnished upon request. Tax considerations with options transactions are unique and investors considering options should consult their tax advisor as to how taxes affect the outcome of each options strategy.

Options Order Flow Rebate.
If you are enrolled in our Options Order Flow Rebate Program, Public Investing will share 50% of our estimated order flow revenue for each completed options trade as a rebate to help reduce your trading costs. The exact rebate will depend on the specifics of each transaction and will be previewed for you prior to submitting each trade. This rebate will be deducted from your cost to place the trade and will be reflected on your trade confirmation. Order flow rebates are not available for non-options transactions. To learn more, see our Fee Schedule, Order Flow Rebate FAQ, and Order Flow Rebate Program Terms & Conditions.

Bonds.
“Bonds” shall refer to corporate debt securities and U.S. government securities offered on the Public platform through a self-directed brokerage account held at Public Investing and custodied at Apex Clearing. For purposes of this section, Bonds exclude treasury securities held in treasury accounts with Jiko Securities, Inc. as explained under the “ Treasury Accounts” section.

Investments in Bonds are subject to various risks including risks related to interest rates, credit quality, market valuations, liquidity, prepayments, early redemption, corporate events, tax ramifications and other factors. The value of Bonds fluctuate and any investments sold prior to maturity may result in gain or loss of principal. In general, when interest rates go up, Bond prices typically drop, and vice versa. Bonds with higher yields or offered by issuers with lower credit ratings generally carry a higher degree of risk. All fixed income securities are subject to price change and availability, and yield is subject to change. Bond ratings, if provided, are third party opinions on the overall bond's credit worthiness at the time the rating is assigned. Ratings are not recommendations to purchase, hold, or sell securities, and they do not address the market value of securities or their suitability for investment purposes.

High-Yield Cash Account.
A High-Yield Cash Account is a secondary brokerage account with Public Investing. Funds in your High-Yield Cash Account are automatically deposited into partner banks (“Partner Banks”), where that cash earns interest and is eligible for FDIC insurance. See here for a list of current Partner Banks. Your Annual Percentage Yield is variable and may change at the discretion of the Partner Banks or Public Investing. Apex Clearing and Public Investing receive administrative fees for operating this program, which reduce the amount of interest paid on swept cash. Neither Public Investing nor any of its affiliates is a bank. Learn more.

Alternative Assets.
Brokerage services for alternative assets available on Public are offered by Dalmore Group, LLC (“Dalmore”), member of FINRA & SIPC. “Alternative assets,” as the term is used at Public, are equity securities that have been issued pursuant to Regulation A of the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) (“Regulation A”). This content is not investment advice. These investments are speculative, involve substantial risks (including illiquidity and loss of principal), and are not FDIC or SIPC insured. Alternative Assets purchased on the Public platform are not held in a Public Investing brokerage account and are self-custodied by the purchaser. The issuers of these securities may be an affiliate of Public Investing, and Public Investing (or an affiliate) may earn fees when you purchase or sell Alternative Assets. For more information on risks and conflicts of interest, see these disclosures. An affiliate of Public may be “testing the waters” and considering making an offering of securities under Tier 2 of Regulation A. No money or other consideration is being solicited and, if sent in response, will not be accepted. No offer to buy securities can be accepted, and no part of the purchase price can be received, until an offering statement filed with the SEC has been qualified by the SEC. Any such offer may be withdrawn or revoked, without obligation or commitment of any kind, at any time before notice of acceptance given after the date of qualification by the SEC or as stated in the offering materials relating to an investment opportunity, as applicable. An indication of interest to purchase securities involves no obligation or commitment of any kind.

Cryptocurrency.
Cryptocurrency trading, execution, and custody services are provided by Bakkt Crypto Solutions, LLC (NMLS ID 1828849) (“Bakkt”). Cryptocurrency is highly speculative, involves a high degree of risk, and has the potential for loss of the entire amount of an investment.

Your Bakkt Crypto account is separate from your brokerage account with Public Investing, which holds US-listed stocks and ETFs. Please review the Risk Disclosures before trading.

Treasury Accounts.
Investing services in treasury accounts offering 6 month US Treasury Bills on the Public platform are through Jiko Securities, Inc. (“JSI”), a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA & SIPC. See JSI’s FINRA BrokerCheck and Form CRS for further information.

JSI uses funds from your Treasury Account to purchase T-bills in increments of $100 “par value” (the T-bill’s value at maturity). T-bills are purchased at a discount to the par value and the T-bill’s yield represents the difference in price between the “par value” and the “discount price.” Aggregate funds in your Treasury Account in excess of the T-bill purchases will remain in your Treasury Account as cash. The value of T-bills fluctuate and investors may receive more or less than their original investments if sold prior to maturity. T-bills are subject to price change and availability - yield is subject to change. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. Investments in T-bills involve a variety of risks, including credit risk, interest rate risk, and liquidity risk. As a general rule, the price of a T-bills moves inversely to changes in interest rates. Although T-bills are considered safer than many other financial instruments, you could lose all or a part of your investment. See Jiko U.S. Treasuries Risk Disclosures for further details.

Investments in T-bills: Not FDIC Insured; No Bank Guarantee; May Lose Value.

Banking services and bank accounts are offered by Jiko Bank, a division of Mid-Central National Bank.
