Here4Money a real person? He is Putin's son-in-law, as far I know. Ok, a little strong. Just a little. For reference, do a search on the name "Putin" in Here4Money's posts. Not that liking Putin is a crime. I respect him myself and wish the US could get a leader 1/10th as focused as...

I agree with you there has been more than one personality behind a couple of the nicks of our resident Leftists. One guy goes on vacation, another fills in. I remember answering an Craigslist.org ad for an "Activism Job" quite a few years ago. It payed relatively decently for a job targeted...

Ok, thanks.

There seems to be a certain delta symmetry to the short premiums to your iron flys as in (Abs delta short call plus abs delta short put equals 1.00). Of course, the net delta varies in the short option part of your IC, but I was wondering what your thought process was behind structuring your...

Sir Vanzandt, my perception of you is that you are intuitive and certaintly wear your emotions on your sleeve.. There is evidence of a troll farm (of two) amongst us. Over the years while they have perfected their methods, some cracks remain. However, you are coming on strong here and...

Thought you guys used bidets. Using a 53' trailer, a high quality mount, a custom refractor telescope array with narrow band filters, and cooled monochrome CCD imaging for deep sky objects, I could travel throughout the North America, especially during winter for some truly impressive imaging...

Sorry to hear you got sick, but am glad you are almost over it. Please give us a poll to show us you are truly ok!

You may be an UHNWI, but I got the toilet paper! Actually it's about 25% of a semi trailer's worth. The question in my mind is why are they shipping out a mostly empty trailer? Urgent need and capacity constraints or is it busy work for us truckers, perhaps like what may be going on in other...

It is interesting how the mind works. Your characterization of "An entire thread.." was not fair and caused me to validate some of the I things I wrote and how much of my ideas I should talk about. This resulted in another "Ah ha" moment where I found a "Nexus" of various edges and a way to...

I'm thinking a solid strategy would be to have a variety of expiration dates, especially in the higher volatility environment right now. Another consideration is management. A weekly expiration is more likely to require more "Hands on" than a "Place and forget" 6 week expiration. Term...

Simply log out to see his posts. He has me blocked as well. Please forgive me in advance for characterizing your comments about the guy as worship. It seems to me it is not healthy to worship those who reject you. The guy does write cryptically apparently to avoid giving away too much...

I ended up taking an options trade today. I bought a April 17th, 2020 OTM 1/2/1 ES butterfly in puts: Long 1 ES 2725 / Short 2 ES 2600 / long 1 ES 2475 for a net debit of 17.00. I suppose the only thing one needs to know about the stock market is liquidity is the fuel that powers market...

Made 4.75 points on a MES scalp after a correction in the European session after the trend finally reversed to the downside. Although I will show my entire trade history at the end of the month, I will post select trades as they happen. Watched the index futures briefly yesterday and short...

Reply to your post is inline, below: =".sigma, post: 5064777, member: 514564"]How far would you go out? These are natural 10-point wide flies, with very good R:R and use of buying power. Lets take my FB 160/170/180 for 2.72 Would you instead widen the width to say 20 points? I don't...

Thank you for your explanation. It is good to understand the reasoning of other people. Yes, Poopydeek is Destriero.

I suspect you are doing a lot more than "Spraying and praying"! Then again, personally I feel there is much to be gained by repetition and should so this for my trading. This post reminds me again of the idea instead of entering entire position at a single structure and point in time, it my be...

Those 'flys look very tight, as with the legs very close to the body. In addition, Interactive Brokers option pricing model (Profit probability times risk to reward ratio) implies a negative edge. However the model does assume you are paying the full spread. Destriero, now Poopydeek, is known...

I've trying to figure out a way to accurately determine and model expectancy over the term until expiration and moneyness of a position. It would also be nice to be able to determine optimal, if any, ratios between the Greeks. I guess it may simply be more of a personal preference than...

Why not skip a few strikes between the higher priced leg and the body, or accept, I can't think of a better term right now, a asymmetric payoff?

No trades today.
