- **salama · 2026-06-30T13:46:41.000Z**: Does Value Brother still hold MSFT calls?
- **外贸幼稚园 · 2026-06-30T09:42:12.000Z · 👍 1**: Blind guess: Value Bro sold the 250 call, still holding the 280 one 😬
  - **长投长红** (2026-06-30T12:19:29.000Z): Isn't the buying price for the 250 call very expensive?
  - **外贸幼稚园** (2026-06-30T12:47:37.000Z): So, to reduce costs...
  - **长投长红** (2026-06-30T12:52:34.000Z): Yes
- **西瓜呀 · 2026-06-30T02:52:13.000Z**: Okay. I'll strictly follow your advice, brother and sister-in-law.Not greedy, not greedy. That's about enough.
- **干嘛不穿鞋 · 2026-06-30T02:44:57.000Z · 👍 2**: My first time buying options, I didn't sell when it was up 60%, stubbornly held until it was down 75%. Being too greedy really doesn't work.
- **顺心财来 · 2026-06-30T02:43:26.000Z**: I haven't broken even yet, only one share left.
- **北荡荡 · 2026-06-30T02:42:05.000Z**: Not enough bullets, so I only bought one share. Held it with too much caution, lol.
- **价值哥的小跟班 · 2026-06-30T02:29:05.000Z**: Bro, should we sell Amazon shares?
  - **wenxp** (2026-06-30T02:46:10.000Z): It seems like we rarely see Value Brother trade in the underlying stock; most of his operations are calls. You can check the records.
  - **安东尼吹吹风** (2026-06-30T02:50:11.000Z): Hold the underlying stock all the way, only buying in and not selling out.
- **价值投机007 · 2026-06-30T02:24:02.000Z**: Is there any particular strategy for Value Brother to choose the long call price? Is it a 10% increase based on the current price?
- **跟顾神反着买 · 2026-06-30T02:22:18.000Z**: Lie flat boss
- **在微软等半导体暴跌 · 2026-06-30T02:16:24.000Z · 👍 11**: Sell some in-the-money options first, got it. Reflecting on my own significant drawdowns, most of them were due to stubbornly holding on and not taking profits.
  - **我的小钱钱** (2026-06-30T02:18:12.000Z): Me too, it's causing my profits to shrink significantly now, and I feel very passive.
  - **卖飞永赚稳住慢慢变富** (2026-06-30T04:56:32.000Z): Selling is too difficult to time. Sell too early and it continues to surge; sell too late and profits turn into losses.
- **我的小钱钱 · 2026-06-30T02:16:17.000Z**: Boss, excellent
- **月落西湖 · 2026-06-30T02:16:13.000Z**: Should I hold my 27.6 300Call for a longer time?
- **大揽教 · 2026-06-30T02:15:36.000Z · 👍 4**: Most people always want to buy at the lowest and sell at the highest, and almost every time it ends in trouble.
- **不断学习，不断进步。 · 2026-06-30T02:15:30.000Z · 👍 1**: Value Bro, may I ask why you chose the 250 and 280 calls back then? When you mentioned it on X, I already thought 250 was a bit low, the stock price of $Amazon(AMZN.US) should have been around 230 at that time. It doesn't seem like there's been much of a gain.
  - **股票白白** (2026-06-30T16:34:29.000Z): How do you see that the guy bought 250 and 280? I blindly bought the January 250,
  - **不断学习，不断进步。** (2026-06-30T16:36:35.000Z): It's mentioned in x
  - **股票白白** (2026-06-30T18:38:10.000Z): Painful 🥹, always failing

  - **芝麻云** (2026-06-30T02:50:26.000Z): How can you still buy it?
  - **刺刃** (2026-06-30T03:08:21.000Z): I get it, you can't buy it, right?
  - **古希腊掌管股票的神** (2026-06-30T04:15:54.000Z): 🤫
- **期权收藏家 · 2026-06-30T02:14:26.000Z · 👍 1**: Just sold it, and then saw your post, instantly felt relieved

  - **Shore Chen** (2026-06-30T02:22:22.000Z): Everyone's position is different, and so is their risk tolerance! Those who have made money can decide how to operate on their own. You'll understand after experiencing it a few more times.
  - **芝麻云** (2026-06-30T02:49:35.000Z): Why can you still buy it? Isn't it prohibited now?
  - **多看少操作** (2026-06-30T06:29:31.000Z): We can't buy it anymore; it's already not allowed. Don't discuss it.
- **嘉辉-价值投机 · 2026-06-30T02:13:50.000Z**: Learned something! 😇

  - **ʕ•ﻌ•ʔ** (2026-06-30T13:03:01.000Z): I had a cold, so I went to bed early last night 🤣. Usually, I see the big brother's messages as soon as they come out 🤣.
