Hello all, Recently did a quick study to see if there is any usable edge in MOC imbalance data. Enjoy reading! https://siramcapitalresearch.substack.com/p/moc-imbalance-is-there-an-edge-part-c98 Regards! -gariki

Hello Phoenix, I believe what you are looking for are vol swaps. But afaik they are not all that accessible to retail traders. Probably OTC if you have access to them somewhere. I could be wrong though.. Hth -gariki

Tongue in cheek.. but it happened there.. then. This time its different and it surely cant happen here. What about the growth inherrent in our stocks.. economy.. zero chance. On a side note, many well known names have been putting out forecasts for the same. Gmo. Hussmann etc. -gariki

What claim did i make? Just go back and re read op's original post - the first three paragraphs. He is asking about basic option mechanics. And that is what i said he is right about. I have not made any claim. Chill dude; no intent to start a pissing contest. Just trying to encourage and help...

Yep. And that is where all the risk is in the position. Often salivating on the possible profits is the cause for major losses. So first thing is to look at the risk. Play defense. Profits will come by..

Most of what you understand is right but since you are buying a put below the market. You wont be hedging 37k worth of qqq risk. More like 70 to 75 percent of it. Look at delta. If you buy deep itm put then that would have been right.

Well said Scataphagos. Only thing i would add is.. are you sure you will still be a happy camper if 6months from now tsla gets cut in half? Say at 350$

Hahha.. because doesnt matter either ways once the main event is done.. You are a pancake.

Whatever you pick trendisyourfriend, pick something that you will like to sit on for the long run. Markets are at all time highs.. any down move and it wont take long for the covered call strategy to not look all so wonderful. Only do it in moderation and on underlyings you can comfortably hold...

Another safe thing to think about is to ladder in time or price or both. Or like you did wait for an up day and now ladder.. there are no wrong approaches. All of them basically will take some deltas off. So just think what your comfort delta is.. Hth!

“In our opinion, the true price of these “free” trades is the loss of best execution, market transparency and a market that favors wholesaler entities that provide routing and have an affiliated market maker (MM),” Golding said. This is the only thing that talks to why it could be bad.. and it...

Exactly trendisyourfriend. If you do not like the risk in a position, if you sit on a limit order, there is a good chance you might never get filled - unless you are ok with that you might want to be a bit more aggressive. But with options given the spreads, you might not want to put market...

I doubt that destriero. Anything you write will probably be worth a lot more.. I will buy yours for sure.. are you writing one btw?
