    Ahh yes, AMZN's penetration into the dirt-floor Romanian countryside will be throttled by their failed support for Ubuntu 16.04 on Pentiums.

    VIX spread margin at IB

    Yeah. I don’t clear IBKR but most are going to req some premium over SPAN. Basis trading in VIX in the early days of the CFE contract saw margins on M1M2 spreads of a under $100 per spread.

    Eliminating half of the risk - A practical options research

    In the OTC world options are priced in vol. I already told you that root time neutrality can get you locally (in spot and time) neutral but you’re going to have to write excess calls and puts to achieve it, why neutralize vega? If you trying to isolate delta then trade the underlying or trade...

    Advice to new a trader

    For the rational among you. When vol rises; the gamma of the ATM strike falls. The effect on OTM gamma is to rise symmetric (10/90 deltas gain = if skew flat) but that’s meaningless as ATM gamma sens is an order of mag > in value and notional impact. Douchey is stating that the rise to extrinsic...

    lol when vol drops theta takes over, you say!? You’ve fucked it sideways yet again. I already schooled you on peak gamma in the other thread, you’ll remember bc I used the huge font. Stop with the self flagellation or delete these when your Amygdala calms down. You fucking loser lol.

    Advice to new a trader

    lol you’re a fucking lame. Infinite gamma! Delta is for noobs! As vol rises, gamma falls… really it’s true. The price was due to wide vol-mkts in a panic represented by the vol-line, not gamma you tool. vIx hit 120. Vol as synthetic time. As vols drop, premiums fall, gamma increases...

    Eliminating half of the risk - A practical options research

    oml that only works for arbitrarily narrow spreads. Sure, the vega is low but now you're trading a binary (up or down). If you choose to combo (bull cs, bear ps) then you're going to be trading a $0ish vega iron fly with a 95/100 payout for long gamma and the inverse for the short gamma fly with...

    Dot-com bust 2.0 is becoming a reality

    He has Asperger's, impulse control problems and an unlimited bankroll. It was a troll buy and now he thinks he can treat it as a PE investment and go public after monetizing the traffic. I guarantee you they lose more users than they gain YoY. Nobody is going to pay to use TWTR as it's not...
