    RUT & IWM Combined Delta Calc

    I'm currently short 3 RUT 450/460 call verticals and the position has a delta of -20. I am also long 3 IWM 47 calls with a delta of +78. Given that the IWM is 1/10th of the RUT, would that translate into 78 IWM deltas being equivalent to 7.8 RUT deltas? Just trying to figure out overall...

    RUT Spreads Width

    EOD Position Analysis - Mark or Last Trade?

    The difference between the EOD Mark price vs. Last Trade price can be quite different (especially over the weekend). I'm curious as to what everybody is using and what your reasoning is behind one or the other. I've been using the EOD Mark price; however, with my current straddle, the EOD Mark...

    If the circled crossover on the MACD is what you're talking about, that is not a t28 trade--see the very first post for what his trades are.
