We can agree to disagree. I don't think I was replying to you directly because you are mainly concerned with collar strategies which is hedged like vertical spread. You don't have unlimited losses like naked shorts. So it is not as relevant for you.

That's when you know you are good tbh. You are less wooed when people talk about amazing brilliant trade ideas. Why risk it when you got your own system that works? And there's a lot of distance between what could work in theory and how it actually pans out in the end. If it works so fucking...

What kind of broker are you looking for? What's your endgame apart from the finding the right partner who won't steal from your account? I run my own business and manage trades/investments that is my baby and essentially my only ticket to a good future with track record, but I'm also weary about...

I'm so glad I got a reliable car before pandemic made the market volatile. I will not need another car for another 10 years+. I hope the market stabilizes and maybe even make EV more practical and affordable by then heh heh

No one has given a clear solution for you but I went through this shit inside out so I'll save some hassle for you with bittersweet news. Simple answer is that no one knows. Very few may know if they understand SPAN calculator offered by the CME exchange, but it's quite complicated because...

I guess it varies on the situation, but just buying to ask price imho can be immensely punishing unless the contracts are extremely liquid with little spread. For instance, current MNQ positions I have are very spready. One of the position has bid of 4.70 and ask is 8.50. That's a huge loss...

I feel like this is mainly targeting crypto miners rather than targeting the traders because trading software and platforms are not demanding at all. Any modest laptop should be able to handle most (if not all) broker platform. It's why I built a computer with no graphic card. I still spent a...

So I'm not saying don't play with the pennies but I don't personally touch it for this reason: Just like the concept of buy the fucking dip concept with big index funds, we call them pennies for a reason. Go to really rural broken school. That's penny stock market for me. Ofc, there will be...

Yeah a lot of time has past and it could be a typical western stereotype. I'll have to visit their eventually and see the country for myself and do heavy research before I make a verdict. I got time to do that once I'm in tax haven country anyway so tbc.

Must be very important facts you're checking out there huh lol

It's not low, but once my capital becomes sizable enough scarcity of capital is less important and quality of life/time becomes more important. Hell, I might even return to heavy tax countries like Canada and UK if I am set for life. Who knows shrug.

Maybe this is why I need to travel more often to appreciate what countries actually are but my stereotype says Taiwan is significantly better place to live in than ex-Soviet republics or Czech but I could be wrong on that. I've been to Taiwan and granted for a brief visit but it seemed like...

No capital, no capital gains tax (big brain moment)

Well, I'm cautiously optimistic but I figure in half a decade or so I should be able to live in Switzerland or Singapore easily with the cash flow and capital I'd have. Switzerland may be too boring for me though I'd love to visit and enjoy the nature there someday. I imagine Singapore is like...
