My first time doing something like this. After what happened to FB last week, I have high hopes!

I think that's a safe bet. I have been considering attempting a short sale as well (I've also never done it).
It's both very tempting, very frightening, and very... conflicting. I've spent no small portion of the past year of my life attempting to destroy short selling. Every time I consider it I get all morally twisted lol.
Nice trade! Just watch out on your margins as the market is 100% manipulated. You can keep rolling the trade and collecting the premiums as well.
This is my first options trade, so complete rookie. I am assuming that buying a PUT option has no margins right? Just risking whatever you spent on the options hoping for the stock to tumble .. and if it doesnt, I lose whatever I spent.
I know that selling options has huge risks, and I am not gonna do that anytime soon lol.
Yeah buying puts typically doesn't involve margin. I have some trades where I sell puts but I'm pretty risk averse and I make sure I can withstand a 50% drop in price with the reserve requirements.
Yeah my account does not have an option for selling PUTs or naked CALLs. Probably a good thing lol.
However the youtuber Greg Mannarino keeps suggesting selling PUT instead of buying stocks directly.
