$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$  "Just a car company"  About time this company regains back its throne. 👑

Over the past decade, we've witnessed remarkable financial stories unfold. Companies like Nvidia have skyrocketed over 30,000%, while early Bitcoin investors have seen returns beyond imagination. These aren’t just numbers; they are examples of what’s possible when conviction meets patience. In trading and investing, there’s a loud crowd that praises high-risk, high-reward strategies, especially options. But sometimes, the most powerful gains come not from complexity or speed, but from simply holding a good stock through time. That sounds easy, but if you’ve been in the market long enough, you know it’s anything but. When Holding Worked Back when I started investing, I used Webull. I didn’t know much. I just kept reading one thing: “Buy and hold through volatility.” So that’s what I did. I

$Caterpillar(CAT)$  I still believe in holding the stocks [Happy]  💪 📈 This is one of my best 🪝 & still holding it 💗... Now more towards sentimental value rather than Price Actions [Thinking]  .... Not sure is this is good [Glance]  ....well 

Speaking of $Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$  I'm a fan too! [Miser]  [Cool]   I totally still believe in the magic of time, as the old adage goes : "Time in the market is better than timing the market. "  I do utilize options to enhance my returns, and it's working out okay so far, but my primary source of returns continues to be stocks. 

In theory, options should always deliver higher returns than the stock itself. After all, they're leveraged bets. But in real trading? Sometimes the unexpected happens — the stock ends up outperforming the option in percentage gain, especially when time or volatility plays tricks. Why Does It Happen? You’re right on direction, the stock flies — but your option… lags or even loses value. Why? Time decay: Options lose value with time, even if the stock moves slowly in your favor. Volatility crush: Right after a news event (like earnings), implied volatility may drop sharply, and your option premium deflates. Wrong strike or expiry: A deep out-of-the-money call doesn’t move much until the stock really explodes — and by then, you may have already sold or expired. Real Traders Know the Feeling

I trade both stocks and options. Take most profits from options trades.  Trade whatever instruments that best suit your risk appetite, skills level and time horizon.  There are many paths to financial freedom. 

I'm uncomfortable with the inherent leverage in options and the elevated risk it carries. For me, it's stocks and that too in cash & carry mode.

nope im pretty new haha

Yes, there are plenty of situations where holding the stock itself outperforms holding or trading the options, especially when the movement in the underlying asset is steady, slower than expected, or simply not volatile enough to justify the cost and decay of options. A classic example is when a stock appreciates gradually over time without large price spikes. In such cases, long-term investors who simply bought and held the stock often come out ahead of traders using calls or spreads. This is particularly true when implied volatility is high—meaning options are expensive—and the actual move in the stock fails to exceed what the market was pricing in. Even if the stock moves in the right direction, the gains from an option might be minimal or even negative due to time decay (theta), volati

Options are powerful. Do both and your returns will be supercharged 

No as I don't buy using options 

Im a strong believer on fundamentals and long term holding, have not sold a single stock since the start of my journey with Tiger from 2021. Nvda is my top holding, 2021 to-date!

very interesting learning

The debate between holding stocks and trading options is a classic one, especially when assets like NVIDIA ( $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ ) and Bitcoin (BTC) have delivered mind-blowing returns of up to 30,000% over the past decade. A recent example from our community—a 222% gain from holding Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company ( $Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$ ) stock—has reignited the question: Can simply holding a stock outperform the high-octane leverage of options? With TSMC’s Q2 2025 earnings sparking a 17.85% surge, we explore when stocks outshine options, when options steal the show, and how to strategize in today’s market. Whether you believe in the magic of time or the thrill of leverage, this

$IONQ Inc.(IONQ)$  $NIO Inc.(NIO)$  $Planet Pbc(PL)$ Big week for me as 8 of my options expired OTM netting me a total of $8,000+ in premiums. Based on my experience of trading both Stocks and Options for the past 4 years, options is certainly a double-edged sword. It can supplement your stocks (I sell cash-secured puts and covered calls) as additional income while waiting for the price to appreciate over time. However, when price movement is extreme, it can cause you to lose out on potentially larger gains. In the end, it really depends on your investment style. 

I think they are different tools to be leveraged on by different investors, as long as they fully understand how they work and the risks involved. I wouldn’t say stocks are superior than options even with these gains as these are not the norm. For most investors, options offer greater returns at lesser risks than stocks and I am still trying to find time to properly learn how to leverage on options. Time is often important for any investment tool. We need time for growth and we need time for the 8th wonder of the world- compounding. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be this wise saying of time in the market is more important than timing the market. Timing the market is something that even experts can get it wrong. I haven’t made such impressive returns in percentage from stocks. However, on to

I've experienced both — options giving me 300% overnight, and stocks giving me 200% over time. But here's the catch: most traders can't emotionally survive long enough to enjoy big stock gains. Read more here: https://tigr.link/s/50Bjg9i

I've experienced both — options giving me 300% overnight, and stocks giving me 200% over time. But here's the catch: most traders can't emotionally survive long enough to enjoy big stock gains. For example: I held $MSTR from $140 to $400+ in 2023. That was a 200% return. Meanwhile, my $CRCL calls expired worthless twice… before the stock ran 80% the next week. Recently, someone posted a 222% gain on $TSM from holding through the chop. That's conviction and discipline. So, is stock > options? Sometimes, yes. But only if: You size right. You don't panic on -20% dips. You have a real thesis, not FOMO. Options are tools. Leverage is beautiful if used with a plan. But stocks reward patience — and time smooths out entry mistakes. These days, I run a 50/30/20 split: 50% conviction stocks (e.g.

🔥 Holding > Options? 😲 222% gains just by sitting tight on $TSM! In a market obsessed with leverage and timing, sometimes… patience wins. Recently, retail traders spotlighted how simply holding $TSM from the October 2022 bottom netted over 220% — outpacing many of the short-term calls that expired worthless or underperformed. And this isn’t just about Taiwan Semi.  The same story’s played out with $NVDA, $BTC, and even $AAPL — names that rewarded those who stayed long, not just those who traded fast. Which begs the question: Have you ever seen stock gains crush option returns? 🚀 📈 Real Examples Let’s take $NVIDIA(NVDA)$  . A five-year holder saw a 2,000%+ return (yes, really), while many short-dated calls got eaten alive by theta

This is a thought-provoking question that touches on the tension between leveraged instruments like options and the long-term compounding power of holding quality assets. --- 🧠 On Options vs. Holding Stock Options can indeed offer significant leverage—but they come with a high risk of total loss, especially if time decay (theta) and volatility shifts don’t favour the position. Many seasoned investors and traders have seen options expire worthless despite being “right” on direction, simply because the timing didn’t align. Contrast that with holding fundamentally strong equities (e.g. Nvidia, TSM, or even Bitcoin as a speculative asset). The key edge here lies in: Time horizon: Great companies tend to compound over time. Investors who had conviction and patience often outperformed leveraged

Over the past 10 years, both $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ and $CME Bitcoin - main 2507(BTCmain)$ have delivered returns of up to 30,000%. In our community, we've also seen many users post over 100% gains from holding the underlying stock—some even outperforming options.For example, after TSM’s earnings surge yesterday, one user shared a 222% gain from holding the stock; another posted a 113% return on Nvidia shares! If they had bought before the stock split, the gains would be even higher. Do you have an even greater return?And let’s not forget the recent boom in crypto-related stocks— $SharpLink Gaming(SBET)$ delivered a shocking 269% return on the stock alone, beating i

When traders think about explosive gains, options are usually the go-to choice. Leverage, low capital outlay, and outsized percentage returns make them appealing. But every now and then, something surprising happens — the stock itself outperforms the option. Yes, it’s rare. But in strong momentum runs, holding the stock can sometimes beat the option — in both returns and peace of mind. Why Would Stock Outperform Options? Time decay kills options: Even if you're right on the direction, options lose value over time. If the stock doesn't move fast enough, your option premium may shrink — or even expire worthless. Volatility crush: After big news (like earnings or a product launch), implied volatility may collapse, causing your option value to drop — even if the stock rises. Delta lag: Deep ou

🌟🌟🌟Options are maybe flashy but give me stocks any day as stocks are faithful.    DBS $DBS Group Holdings(D05.SI)$ is the quiet achiever that outpaces  options. DBS 5 year return is an astounding 193%.  Options? Time decaying and emotionally exhausting. DBS's dividends and capital growth is compounding at its best. Options may be flirty but with DBS , magic happens over time.  DBS isn't just a bank.    It is a compounding machine with a dividend crown that is hard to beat! Go Long Go Strong Go DBS! 🥰🥰🥰🌈🌈🌈💰💰💰🇸🇬🇸🇬🇸🇬 @Tiger_comments @TigerStars

I prefer holding stocks over options due to my lower risk tolerance. While options offer high returns, the risk of total loss doesn’t align with my investing style. I’m more comfortable with steady growth over time, even if it means lower returns. That said, I believe in the power of time. Some stocks can deliver explosive returns if you hold them long enough. My best performer so far is $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ . I’ve been averaging up using DCA & its growth in AI and government contracts has really paid off. I’ve seen others make huge gains with options, and that’s great for them—but I stick with what suits me. Long-term stock investing gives me peace of mind and solid results. I’m excited to see where PLTR goes in the next few ye

Options give you more options, period. Stocks alone will not give you the gains that you're looking for. Coupled with options, profits can be multiplied manifold. Am glad that options has generated a rather significant sideline income for me 💜🙏🙇‍♀️

I prefer stocks over options due to my lower risk tolerance. I accept lower returns for stability and trust in long-term growth. My best pick, PLTR, has shown solid gains with its data analytics focus. The TSMC 222% gain is impressive, but I haven’t hit that mark. Still, PLTR’s steady rise suits my strategy. I believe in time over options’ volatility. I haven’t seen 30,000% returns like Nvidia, but gradual growth works for me. I focus on stocks with strong fundamentals, like PLTR, for sustainable gains. In short, I stick to stocks for lower risk and trust time-driven growth, with PLTR as my standout so far.
