TKL: This is interesting – Speculative mega-cap tech call options volume has dropped to ~4.5 million in December, near the lowest in over 7 years. 5-day average call volume has declined by ~75% since the 2024 peak, according to Goldman Sachs.

Most of us have a fantasy of throwing a few bucks at, say, a penny stock, and watching it explode in value. Three months later, we’re driving that new Porsche, or taking the Euro trip, or putting the kids into the elite private school…

Now let’s channel that dream responsibly. 👉 Choose a slice of your portfolio to gamble – small enough to lose without losing sleep. Whether that’s 0.05%, 1%, or 15%, be honest with yourself. 💸 Convert your chosen percentage into an actual dollar amount based on your portfolio size. Picture burning that cash. Still comfortable with it? If yes, go for it. If not, lower your gambling percentage until you are. submitted by /u/FXgram_ [link] [comments]
