    Is there anything i can do to get around the PDT rule?

    Nobody stopped you from shorting GME via the synthetic. Ironically you could have shorted the synthetic in GME and covered in shares during the same session (complete the conversion arb) and it would not count against PDT.

    Bought 100 shares of Google today...

    Only risk I see is AMZN tanking but should stay above 90 this week. I have to ask... why not simply short the 93 put? Save on a new bucks on NBBO.

    EXACTLY!! It was the short puts, pushed by the ballooning infinite gamma that never really reached 0. You don't really understand the meaning of infinite. Asymptotic, perhaps? We'll give you some time to look it up.

    You stated that gamma was not inf in practice but in theory. You're fcking delusional. Nothing that you wrote, above, makes any sense. You don't GAF about delta? Where do you buy your bearings?

    omg, how long have you been doing this shit? I went back over the time stamp. NDX cash market closes -> MSFT and GOOGL sht the bed -> futures drop 160-180 -> Soy opens this thread with the bear call at 11500 futures -> Soy takes 200 points against his call (11700 top) -> mkt sells off and...

    What happens to gamma when vols rise? Where is peak gamma? I know you think it exploded but it didn't. Perhaps you're conflating with one of your recent date-nights. Vols exploded. >100 point move on VIX cash. Gammas drop with moneyness meaning that as the position generates delta (ITM) it...

    Is there anything i can do to get around the PDT rule?

    PDT forced a lot of small traders into futures so from 4:1 intraday to 7:1 overnight. Sounds feasible. 1) Don't open/close intraday. Swing trade at the close of the day -> cover next day's session or beyond. 2) Trade synthetics at x, cover at y; you're in a box at the end of the day at a few...

    I'll entertain your stupidity one more time. Sure, gamma exploded. We'll use your scientific term. The problem is less that gamma exploded and more than the positions went to 100D. At 100D there is no gamma. Gamma implies leverage yet you can have exploding gamma and lose very little. Too much...

    optimal point for profit taking

    I don't trade a lot of classic flies now, but say you're long upside flies (long delta). Vol-corr: Are you marking down vol at neutrality (Sticky S)? In index you have to account for sticky D, but skews are essentially locally-flat so not an issue. It may be an idea to reduce the position a...

    Wrong. Futures were down nearly 200 when you opened this thread. Worse, they traded up on the day in the morning session. You’re a joke.

    Dude, fix your commas. Gamma is inversely proportional to moneyness and proportional to vols. That, and you’re a “tool.” The irony that you became the grammar Nazi on Lucy and followed-up with your infinite shitty grammar. Straight up loser.
