    Are there optoins platforms that let you map out greeks?

    Interactive. They have some options price history but not in spread format. Like if I wanna know where a straddle price has been in the last 2 months, i wouldn't be able to construct that.

    Chinese President warns Feds about hiking interest rates

    Are Trump's tariffs still active? I guess it's not hurting them anymore.

    Are there optoins platforms that let you map out greeks?

    For example - If I want to compare the vega from 1 option to another at a different strike or even a different underlying in a graph, is there a platform that lets you do that? Or say if I want to know the historical credit for a call spread.

    Advanced question about Diagonal spreads

    I don't know about the options community here. I use options to do directional and if it goes down I should be losing money because that is the opposite direction of what is intended. If it goes down like you said and I get assigned, I would probably just exit and take the loss. If I get...

    Advanced question about Diagonal spreads

    Yes you can get assigned, but the risk profile is the same. Say I get assigned the put. I own 100 shares of XYZ. 1) I get to collect all the theta value 2) If the stock goes up, I win, if the tanks, my long put is still there. As for the Theta decay.. I don't think neither of you know the...

    Advanced question about Diagonal spreads

    I didn't lose any money on this "yet" because I'm just going to keep rolling the front options until both options are on the same expiration date. If you see above, I posted what I did today. So we'll see. I don't have any modelling software, I'm just doing this strictly off what I do know...

    Advanced question about Diagonal spreads

    I rolled it today. Just for the sake of science, I'm going to post to until this thing expires or I decide to close out the position completely. I rolled the 262.50 Short Put to next week at $245 (below my LONG because I thought today was going to be another bad day). Instead it rallied and...

    Advanced question about Diagonal spreads

    There is no doubt if I "should" be doing this trade. I definitely should as I posted my small loss after a $10 drop. I just don't know if one is better than the other. That's why it's more on the advanced side. Also it's impossible to know how much a diagonal spread will be worth when one...

    Advanced question about Diagonal spreads

    I want the underlying to go up yes. Having a put spread on the same expiration would not give me the benefit of having only a $171 loss when the trade went -$10 against me. It would be much higher. I guess that is what you mean when Theta is on my back? They don't work together, if I'm...

    Advanced question about Diagonal spreads

    Here is what I did on SNOW today. Stock closed today @ $244.72 I got in when snow was around $260. so it already went deep through my Long Put. Which is not what I wanted, I wanted the Short ST $262.5 put to expire worthless tomorrow. Now I face the problem.. Should close the 255 Long and...

    Advanced question about Diagonal spreads

    I usually do a diagonal spread with the underlying price in between. Is this a bad idea or the 6 month long a bad idea? Using my same example as long as I don't make the LONG PUT more than 30 days it's fine? It still doesn't answer the question about readjusting the spread though. Assuming...

    What's it called when you buy a put and call with different expirations?

    It's called a diagonal or calendar. Calendars have same strike price different maturity. Diagonals both are different. However, for both strategies, both options need to be a call or a put. The example you provided is nothing, if you have a call expiring this week and a put expiring next...

    Advanced question about Diagonal spreads

    I don't know how advanced this is, but I'm sure it happens a lot. (especially now) Sell to Open Put ST $100 expiring 1/28. Buy to Open Put ST $80 expiring 6/30. Stock is trading at $90 when you engaged in the spread. Next Day: Stock drops to $70. 1) We can assume the 1/28 Put is worth ~$30...

    Tesla TSLA has topped

    I just have a thought. Elon Musk doesn't get paid a salary instead he gets paid in stock options when the company this certain goals. Does this mean there'll always be a sell off every time he needs money???

    Russell 2000 almost in Bear territory

    HARD hammer signal today. Is this going to be a consolidate area or will it double top? Or will it keep going down? If we're dropping 20%, I highly doubt the market won't come back for a double top or head and shoulders before than.

    Russell 2000 almost in Bear territory

    You just said stagflation is coming and nothing is wrong? Has the earnings for smaller companies grew? If they grew and the stock didn't move, that's a different story. In that case, the P/E should be very low.

    Tech Stocks Keep Tanking?

    I like it when I lose money but know I didn't get in at the top. lol All jokes aside, I'm not looking for a quick rebound though, looking to hold for at least end of 2022.
