Simple and Brilliant! This thread is so deep and hits home with me on so many levels that it is scary. I work at a bank where I actually deal with the desk asistants where some of the bank traders mentioned in Trader Montly Magazine work and I fantasize about what that guy must be like, how...

RiskArb, Please explain to an idiot such as myself what it is you are hoping the market will do, up, down or nuetral, to make this option profitable: Short weak synthetic straddle, bull delta I always print your journal on Friday's to read over the weekend and would also like to know...
