Excluding Russian banks from SWIFT would restrict the country's access to financial markets around the world. I am not sure if this excludes the MOEX. I am more interested in how this would affect the US markets.

Anything that has a major impact on global economy should be able to move forex. Looking at the Russian Ruble & most european currencies declined right after the invasion was confirmed & international sanctions followed. I don't trade forex so I cannot judge whether it's a minor or steep decline.

Bad guidance for the coming year. Personally, I'd just avoid it for now. (As an options trader, not as an investor.) https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/02/25/why-foot-locker-stock-crashed-today/?source=eptyholnk0000202&utm_source=yahoo-host&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=article

This could just be one of those ATH charts we be seeing that fills the gap quickly. Pretty certain, it will at least retest 460.

Sell the rumor, buy the news. Classic! Saw it coming but not at this magnitude.

If you have been paying attention how the SPX has been moving daily you'll realize no serious crash will ever come since its being controlled. We are just players in their game...

This is why I never celebrate my calls/puts overnight. After all that red on global economy and futures over the weekend and it goes green. :banghead:

Slightly ignored I sold my XOM calls. Brent futures up over 3%. Took some VXX 25c 2/25th ones. Not making any assumptions yet. Frequently, witnessed the ES turn R/G overnight. But it currently looks like a texbook bear flag or rising wedge rn. Esp on the slow buildup.

Anyone watching the Russian stock market? Getting annihilated.

Wander why the media hasnt catched on or at the very least suspected that as a possibility given their recent history. I am willing to bet they they don't give two shits whether Ukraine joins Nato or not. Causing an war makes no sense since it will only destroy their own economy which doesn't...

I just read some reddit posts. It seems we are not the only ones coming up with this conspiracy theory. :p The pieces do kinda fall together.

It is highly probable that putin staged all this just so he can buy the dip. The man is rumored to be worth 200b. (How did he amass that fortune?) We will have a clearer picture on Tuesday when market opens.

I get the feeling it's just scare tactics. Russia has a lot more to lose then to gain from this. They can't be that stupid!

I tried XOM calls but it didn't work. It looks like oil may already be priced in. Made a little on GDX options but it's starting to look very toppy as well. Nobody know what's gonna happen next. This could very well just be a bluff and no war escalates.

It's like she just randomly adds innovative disruptors into her etf's. It worked when the market was in it's early-covid stages since everything was going to the roof.

DWAC did move up about 20% but we are seeing a lot more topping tails. I did make a little on the weekly 100 calls but it's like a trash casino hit & run type of play. The movement is no longer consistent.

Russia added 7000 troops to Ukraine border. Wonder how that is gonna affect the market tomm. Bulltrap today?

Yes, this is why playing small size options is the better. Taking shares would be reckless.

Figured it was one of those lowfloat plays with added meme potential. Ripped from sub 10's to 170ish in a 2 day time frame. Chart does look like it wants more. Quite possibly fill part of that gap to 125+ on this float. When that happen will be the big question. Perhaps we may see it as...

What's your take on this? Was watching this when it was in the 40's but never did any DD to ever feel confident to take a trade. All I know is it has a bunch of crazy trump supporters on it. Chart is on a C&H. Perhaps it might just hit 100+? Risky but def looks interesting for option...
