Groundhog's Day...Again and again and again and again...

SammyJ dropping wisdom bombs left and right. Been around this stuff for 25 years, as quite a few others on here have as well. Yes, there was a time that reckless buyers got punished without mercy, but as Rickshaw and others have alluded, it's very, very temporary in these new world markets...

EOM

Talk about beating a dead horse. 7 months ago guys.

In combination with their allowance of third party transfers, this seems like a pretty logical conclusion. It's a big hole in their system (granted I'm just going on the info that others have posted in this thread).

A brief summary of what sort of options trading? Or how many trades per day, holding period etc?

It's a heaping dose of fourth turning for those who are familiar. The boomers will not relinquish their grip...sure they pay lip service, but at the end of the day you have these two running for the highest office...suckers.

Thank you...I agree, yet with all the vitriol launched on both sides nobody even brings this up...

There's a reason I stopped visiting this site...I'm sorry but that is hopelessly naive.

No one even questions the age of the candidates any longer...30+ years ago that was unthinkable...I'm not a Millennial or Gen Z, but the "boomer" stereotype plays itself out indefinitely...a 74 vs 78 year old running for the highest office and yet it is never mentioned...

He could also trade the bastard index that margins at about half of ES, namely the Russell. Bottomline, most people should just trade multiple lots of the micros and not lose their shirt/s*** in the 1-2x per week binary overnight moves that will stop them out at the highs/lows.

ok, so who was virtusa in his previous life. Dude blew up on me a few weeks back. Complete spastic.

Nothing real specific. I probably misinterpreted IB Dude's post since it seems he was pointing to some specific anomaly. The general jist is that post Feb swoon, even with this mega one way rally, vols stay elevated and I think the deep, deep OTM strikes on the put side can and will stay well...

Pull up a weekly/monthly chart of QQQ/NDX and then think about the tail risk following a one way move of such magnitude.
