As far as I can tell, it hates me because I've learned more about options in the last three years than it has in its entire life - and I dare to say things about what I know without seeking its approval. [shrug] I don't get that kind of jealousy, but I do recognize it. Incompetents always feel...

That's an odd definition of beta. Where did it come from? And what is 'alpha' in this case? The "normal" definition of beta is the volatility of a given asset against that of the market, not some perfectly locked "ratio of movement". There's no such thing, or we'd all be billionaires (if it did...

:D As I recall, my recommendation to those who supported that idea was a rectally-inserted garden hose with the water turned on full blast. Gotta wash those Gates microchips out...

Ahh, done for the day. Time to poke at the troll again... Yes indeed... you're the offended innocent that I mercilessly slaughtered without provocation. Take pity, all who pass!

([shocked intake of breath] Look, look! It has decided to stand on its non-existent dignity! What shall we do?) Noooo! Please come back and provide some more comedy relief! All this intense finance stuff... we NEED you to be the desperate, miserable sad clown that you are.

Ah, I see... methyl alcohol. You poor, poor critter. Please call the 988 hotline before it's too late. Why, yes, yes - you ARE the measure of all things, and everyone will obey your diktat!... until you wake up alone in your sweat-soaked bed, tangled in those unwashed-in-months, smelly sheets...

Been gargling with vodka again? The thought of YOU knowing anything whatsoever about options... after the incoherent hot garbage you've posted, every single time when trying to discuss issues of fact - rare as that is!... holy shit. :D:D:D I didn't think you could sound even more stupid than...

Odd how that "laughter" of yours sounds like gritting teeth... please do keep freaking out in public, it's why I keep poking you through the bars of your cage. So you keep upvoting my posts, have to be told who they're intended for, have zero options or trading knowledge of your own - gawd, the...

Ah, those delusions are kicking in again. I specifically said that I won't put you on ignore - but I guess the rot in your brain is starting to extend through the optic nerve... too bad, really. I'll miss the slapstick idiocy that you demonstrate so well. P.S. Oh, and gender confusion too...

Ewwwww. ON, I thought you were my friend! Why would you wish something like that on me??? Now I have to waste a bunch of alcohol wipes disinfecting every square inch of my skin. Just the thought... blechhh. (Adding a glass of Gosling's rum to the procedure. Might as well disinfect internally...

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D Why... you simpleton. Are you just now discovering this, after spewing your vomit all over the walls and pounding your face into it? Stating (and re-stating) the basics is exactly what I'm doing. I've never claimed to do anything else. There are plenty of newbies here, and...

ON, I appreciate you trying to stand up for me - thank you, quite sincerely! - but really, it's not needed. Every time Karen goes insane and tears her hair out after seeing me post, it's fun time for me: like "...really? I'm saying the most basic stuff here, and she freaks out over that?" Let...

Why would anyone need to add comedy to your head-first dive into the shithouse? The spectacle of your legs waving helplessly and the queef-like gurgles from below are enough entertainment for anyone! Funny thing, though... if my only talent was running my mouth, then why are you twitching like...

:D:D:D Come on, man - you know me. If I see it, I call it - as precisely as I can. Granted, I don't know what M.W. looks like... but someone with that much hatred rotting out their guts is clearly not an amateur at that game; that kind of emotional disturbance has been there for 50 or 60 years...

Ah. Well, I can't see his nonsense, so I went with a best guess in the "if the shoe fits" category and named the most proximate "Cinderella". One without a prince - even an ugly one - to occupy her, alas. C'est la vie, c'est la guerre [glancing in M.W.'s direction]... C'EST LA POMME DE TERRE!

Dude. I don't like @M.W. very much, but that's a little too unkind a name for her. Be nicer.

I only had a few moments before this class that I'm teaching started, so I was indeed imprecise in my wording - thanks for pointing that out. However, what I meant was a "broker" from a broader perspective - e.g., companies like TastyTrade, who benefit from people over-trading.

[yawwwWWWN] You just can't resist creeping on me, can you? Gawd, the desperation... Isn't there a shop in your home town that can sell you a plastic "friend", or even a cucumber? I'm just amused as hell that you absolutely can't stand success in others; it's sand in your craw and fiberglass...

True for every day of the year, I would think. Most traders 1) have no protection against tail events, and 2) make trades based on one or the other extreme of the hope/fear scale. It doesn't help that they're told "just look at this indicator" or "just trade small and often" or some other...

Have you tried hovering your cursor over/clicking the "About" link? It's there for a reason. That app is a speed trainer that I wrote for figuring out terminal values for a variety of options trades. Most people have to go stare at the analysis tab in their platform to figure out their max...
