    Covered. New resistance at 158.53. After that 158.65, and 158.80. I will wait for the bounce, weakness, then sell again.

    As I made profit on the move down, and I think that it would go down, I will only short on bounces up after weakness is confirmed.

    I think that it is trying to reverse on daily chart. I took profits. I want to see a bounce back up, then short on weakness. Current resistance seems at 158.80. It may even go back up to 159.10.

    Is this real or paper trading? If you are using live money, I suggest that you start with only $100. I have taught some to trade, and I will ask one of my students to send me the link to her equity curve. If she sends it to me, I will post the link. You will be able to have a look at her equity...

    Straddle (sort of) question

    Excellent explanation! Would also like to add that if one is long a call one is implicitely holding a borrowing position. The opposite for a long put (lending position). So interest rise after transaction has positive impact on long call and short put holders. This may be helpful in remembering...

    Straddle (sort of) question

    I am not sure what you meant and understood from my comments. The essence of what I wanted to say is that when exercise is american style, and other things, the american option put (or call depending on carry) carries an additional premium. Therefore if american style, put-call parity cannot...

    Turkish Lira Carry Trade

    Do you want me to use a street definition? I read words and check their definition in dictionaries. Plus, how do you know that this is what he meant? After his first post he gave links in which I read this definition of devaluation: "In common modern usage, it specifically implies an official...

    Straddle (sort of) question

    The put-call parity comes with many ifs: 1. both positions are assumed to be held until expiration. Equivalence is in terms of dollar loss/gain, and not in term of percent returns. 2. Many things can get you out of the equivalent position such as over leverage. 3. Valid only for...

    Turkish Lira Carry Trade

    I am sorry the question was devaluation! You can not have both a free market and devaluation. It is an impossibility. Who is in his right mind? You or I. I use the word devaluation as defined. You misuse it. Is it my problem if you do?

    Turkish Lira Carry Trade

    You may want to watch a show by Charlie Rose on PBS with the French President. You should be able to see that a fair minded guy like Charlie has checkmated Sarkozy on the Turkey question. This country (USA) rightly supports the point of view that Turkey is in Europe. I believe that Turkey will...
