you should reread the thread. And then retract some of your posts. That would be starting over.

You can always short the stock and have a free put option. Offset a short squeeze (borrow is essentially a dividend). I’ll make it simple for you as you clearly know nothing about options :).

so you are saying that Tesla will never be over 885? And you are taking the credit for that statement now?

“the count of montecristo by Alexander dumbass”

I often trade when there isn’t news - but as I said the anticipation of no news is the ideal market for a short vol trader. my biggest money has been trading around a news event.

the stories… not fit for a public forum!

the statement being debated is “news is useless” And no, because the absence of news is news in itself.

Stick to your squiggly lines. News has no bearing on those price movements.

Easier than just trading on the random prices of a million market participants.

I’m pretty sure that if I knew the news ahead of time I could make billions on very little capital. Just because you suck at trading doesn’t mean the rest of us do.

Im suggesting that the OP should stop paying 1k/month each to three different brokers for live data and instead pay that 1k/month to Bloomberg and get far more info and all the live quotes he needs.

65 cents a contract is .65 cents a share on a 4000 point index.

they probably even have the jail cells and executioners’ rifles loaded.

You can trade without paying for live market prices. I used to do it all the time (when I had delayed quotes with E*TRADE and live quotes on my Bloomberg)

But instead of paying three brokers 1k/month you can pay one company 3k/month, get way better service and still trade with your three brokers

it can stay contained. Like ltcm.

All those German landesbanks knew who Lehman and bear sterns were. They bought all those subprime mortgages.

China may not bail out the company but they will have to bailout the banks. 300bn isn’t a trivial amount to lose, but it’s nothing like subprime.

Reduce your size. You dont want to be in this type of position where you are managing your margin req this way.

that’s the hard part. All the talk about what IV is, etc is just text book knowledge. Determining what is rich and cheap is the application of that knowledge and there isn’t a clear objective answer.
