You are quoting this text, but you did not provide a direct link to it. I provided a link to the terms and conditions on the Tradiac website: https://tradiac.com/terms/ That page does not contain the word Delaware, and it does not contain word Ventures either. (It does have the word...

Okay, I have not read the research paper. I briefly skimmed the abstract. I am not especially interested in fractal theory as it applies to trading. But why in the world would they use "a sample of Islamic stocks listed in the U.S. Dow Jones Islamic market"?? Are they referring to the Dow...

Yes, I get that I'm interested in reading the legal docs There is more to it than that For example, SPY is American-style exercise, and trading in the options continues until 4:15 PM on the day of expiration. The extended trading hours are not "standard." Most equity options do not work that...

According to their terms and conditions, they are registered in MÄRSTA, Sweden. https://tradiac.com/terms/ What makes you think they are incorporated in Delaware?

Okay, that's actually very interesting. You seem to know a lot of history that I am not familiar with. I would love to know why OEX options have kind of faded away. I remember when they were the hottest thing out there. Maybe all this talk about how "owns" or "sponsors" or "licenses" options is...

And so, with a little more searching, I found a page at NYSE Arca that looked very promising: https://www.nyse.com/options#products When you scroll down, you get to an area with four boxes, and four different categories of options: equity, index, ETP, and FLEX/LEAP. And for each category, you...

Maybe sponsor is not the right word. But if you look at my first attachment, you'll see that SPX and XSP options were somehow created by the CBOE. The concept originated at CBOE, and that is the "home" exchange, or something like that... If there is no sponsor or issuer or host or whatever the...

Okay, then why have my Google searches not turned up any formal documentation on SPY options from OCC?

I don't think that's what it means. Axe is a very technical term that refers to how bids and offers are published by broker-dealers. A retail trader can't have an axe. Even an institutional investor, such as a pension fund, can't have an axe. It's a type of quote that can only be selected by a...

There are some industry professionals and researchers who think that the term does indeed originate from the phrase "an axe to grind." And in the more remote reaches of the internet, some have suggested that it is a metaphor for using an axe to cut certain positions. I am skeptical of this...

State Street does not issue the option products. See my reply to @ajacobson

The page you cited contains no information at all about SPY options. That's the SSGA website that describes the exchange-traded fund. SSGA is not the sponsor for the options. The options are issued, or sponsored by NYSE ARCA. So you won't find what I am looking for on the SSGA website. Did you...

Can't find this info anywhere. The sponsoring org for SPY options appears to be NYSE Arca. I would like to read the contract specs or any other official documents that describe the product. Can't find anything like that. I don't really want to read a 300-page prospectus. But I can't find...

Steps 1, 2 and 3 are not a problem. It's only with step 4 that you get into licensing issues. If you charge a fee to advise her to buy a particular investment product, whether it's US treasury bonds, index funds, or corn futures, then you are probably in violation if you are not licensed...

The current GBTC product does not own Bitcoin. It only owns Bitcoin futures.

A federal appeals court has overturned the SEC's decision, in which the SEC denied Grayscale's application to establish a Bitcoin spot ETF. Here's the Bloomberg article: https://tinyurl.com/BB230829GBTC and here's Matt Levine's column: https://tinyurl.com/BB230829Levine These are gift links...

What kind of losses are are you talking about? Something that gutted your account, and now you don't have enough money to keep trading? So you are asking if you should walk away, or move new money into your account so you can continue trading? Or did you just have a really bad day, or a...

You want coffee at the end of the day? Won't you have trouble falling asleep? :rolleyes:

Gladstone Capital is a business development company (BDC). A BDC is a specific type of closed-end fund. And yes, they hold equity and debt in companies that are not publicly traded. I'm not disputing what you said. But I would be pleasantly surprised if the GLADZ baby bonds get an...

No, I am not. I own some of their common shares, and I have a general interest in baby bonds. I think a lot of people don't even know these things exist, and some of them are a great way to diversify in fixed income. I don't have an opinion about this particular note. I want to see if it gets...
