    Initially. But the reduction in CO2 over the next n-years makes up for the initial bump by more than an order of mag. Your dad should have pulled out.

    Vol-trading for beginners

    FULL SYNTHETIC STRADDLE (ONE LOT) The synthetic was priced at shares so there is no issue there. A short straddle is short one call, short one put, one strike. You can replicate a straddle two ways, both with shares: Long 100 shares; short two calls at n-strike. Short 100 shares; short two...

    Vol-trading for beginners

    I'll get to it today. I am short CL outright and it aligns with my view on CL. My CL trade is up a bit but it's not a long term short as I think CL hits 75-80 (continuous chart) in the late Spring or early Summer. Anyway, it's only a bit short D. It's a half lot.

    Biden worse than Hitler. Blackmailed by China, he now opens southern border to 20 million illegals.

    COVID was a phantom. We had to get rid of Trump.

    You need to wait for the next iMac gen with the M1X. The reseller channel thinks it will be a 12-core model; 8 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores. There are no M1 iMacs yet. Hearing that the 2021 Mac Pro will have an M1X with 12 performance cores, 8 efficiency and a GPU with 12 cores. RAM...

    When will SPY split?

    ofc you're correct that it doubles costs... but anyone here needs to ask themselves what the SPX and SPY value represents. And why you maintain a 10x ratio of SPX to SPY.

    When will SPY split?

    Right dude. I know that you're background is on the floor, so I shouldn't have to write this... but they are never going to split a major index and as a result the tracking ETF. It will remain 10:1 SPX to SPY forever. Jeez, I wonder why. This place is a fucking asylum. It's just cats all the...

    When will SPY split?

    There is no yelling font. It's disconcerting that anyone (you) can be this abjectly stupid. End of story.

    Vol-trading for beginners

    I have two "pro" Macs. One Mac Pro 12-core and an iMac Pro 18-core. Easily $25K in hardware and I bought two M1 Macs this month; the MBA (max spec) and the Mac Mini (base spec). The single core performance on the M1 is amazing. An added benefit is to be able to run native iOS apps on the M1 Mac...

    lol here is the half-size synthetic combo I trade for illustration. I chose it bc it's tethered to CL. No other reason other than I can essentially ignore it. Back later to discuss it.

    When will SPY split?

    WTF does that even mean? One contract of the synthetic is 100 shares. WTF are you talking about the synthetic when you can buy a single share for <$400? Seriously, is this thread a joke or is something wrong with you?

    When will SPY split?

    Top ten dumbest thread on ET (historically). If you can't afford $400 to buy a share of SPY then you have no business investing. Add to that the issue with tracking with the big. Troll somewhere else.
