    Where to trade crypto options?

    Doesn't matter what you think. Deribit doesn't act as a broker otherwise I wouldn't be doing 60% of my crypto turnover there.

    Where to trade crypto options?

    I think you're confusing brokers and market makers with exchanges. Deribit is not a bucket shop. They're an exchange. Market makers will blow up but exchanges just fade into the void when volumes are not there

    Selling short straddles is like printing free money convince me I'm wrong

    Are you guys still not done circle jerking over this trolls shitpost?? Selling naked gamma has never been like printing money. It's a bet against realized vol. If underlying moves less than IV you win. If it moves more you lose...and sometimes it moves a lot more and then you're broke. And by...

    Tradable Correlation

    You need a larger account (or portfolio margin) to get the ratios right, yes. But honestly, if you just want to hedge out the overall market, you can just setup a long/short (e.g. SPY short/long DIS) portfolio.
