Note: This is a very risky strategy. I am using a leveraged, high-risk option strategy on a leveraged asset that is also a proxy for a high-beta asset, namely Bitcoin.

Last week, I bought the dip aggressively. As I had mentioned, my plan was not to buy more BTC, although I did make a small purchase of BTC Pure. However, my goal was to add to my position in MSTR options. I also disclosed that I planned to exceed my rule of no more than 10% of my portfolio in any one BTC proxy, and I have indeed exceeded this rule.

To understand the chart and the relative dollar value, I have multiplied the number of MSTR contracts I own by 100 and then by the stock price. For example, 10 contracts of MSTR equals 1,000 shares * $336. Even though the amount of money I have invested is small, the number of shares I now control is not. One bitcoin is now equivalent to 92 MSTR shares.

CLSK is 2.1% of my BTC & BTC Proxy bag

BITF is 0.19% of my BTC & BTC Proxy bag

I am very Bullish on Bitcoin up to and beyond the halving.  My Goals are not your goals.

There is also another angle here, in full disclosure it is hard to sell BTC pure form as we know it is so rare.  However, I have no problems selling proxies in a heart break and hedging the heck out of them.  This will help me exit the markets 18-24 mths from now and also take large profits along the way using all the tools we have.

Talking about BTC miner prices, CLSK last cycle didn't really run UNTIL the halving. Is this time different?

I know what you mean about selling pure form. That's a great way of getting exposure to Bitcoin.

Nice James…hoping for this strategy to work out in spades for you, me and anyone else who is willing to take the risk. I bought 1 leap yesterday as I have smaller bags, but also hold 100 shares of MSTR so more than 1 BTC! 🙏👊🤘

Using leverage, to buy a leverage asset, which is similar to an asset you already own in great quantities. So my take on this is if Bitcoin goes to $20k you don't get wiped out. But if it goes lower that that you are done for it. But here's the silver lining, if Bitcoin goes to $20k and then back to $30k eventually you are going to be all ok. James how did you justify this logically?

LOVE IT!. James, PLEASE make a video on the mental aspect of markets again. - your example of not wanting to sell btc, so stocking up on mstr to sell it instead is great.

Hi there, quick one on synthetic longs. I have just opened an account with a broker in order to build synthetic longs on BTC proxies. Their tutorials on how to manage your margin are "confusing" (to say the least). Knowing their best interest is for me to trade and lose (casino style), I prefer reaching out to the community to get confirmation.

Obviously, when building a SL, the risk is on the sold put. Assume I have sold 1 contract on 100 shares of MSTR. Face value of the put is therefore 100 x 350$ or 35k$. Say my margin is 10k$, does that mean I'll get liquidated when the MSTR stock price drops 350$ - 10k$ / 100 = 250$? Is it that "simple"? Thanks for feedback!
