It’s clear what he’s trying to do economically. He’s going to trade the legs to creat realized losses and realized gains at specific points in time. This stuff is quoted 30 points wide but he will trade within a point of fair value (since he’s in the industry I assume he knows how to calculate...

I think a viable solution has been given. how have you structured these for other clients? i read a bit about perpetual travelers. There’s little on capital gains treatment.

I misread “pt” for “put.” But the concept remains the same. On a zero dte option there will be virtually no value on the credit part of the iron fly as the decay will be swift. it changes the trade (as the OP alludes to). That’s fine if your view had changed; but if not, you are better to...

it did for the longest bull market / Economic growth cycle in modern American history.

Republicans don’t like any color that’s not white unless you 100percent assimilate and still accept being a second class to your white counterparts. They will, however, happily accept your votes and financial donations.

you take away China, Japan, and south east Asia and Asians make up less than 5percent of the population.

the structure is straightforward. He has two 99 delta options. So when the market moves, one earns and the other loses in equal amounts. He closes the winning one while banging street prostitutes in Panama. And then closes the losing one while hanging out at a fetish sex club in Berlin.

The white paper (admittedly I have not read) isn’t about bitcoin becoming a global currency. That’s the definitive purpose of bitcoin. Not your opinion of what it should be. I’m a nocoiner despite talking to some very serious and respected people in the space. I still haven’t gotten a...
