How to trade Forex- take $5,000 dollars in small bills, set fire to it. Forex is at best a wet finger in the wind. Pure gambling

The U.S. pharma giant and its German biotech partner now report 95% efficacy for their vaccine candidate, drawing on the final analysis of a 43,000-person study. And don’t worry about the elderly not responding to the vaccine; the efficacy only drops to 94% in people older than 65,

Trump is the dumbest bedwetting loser ever to bankrupt a casino -he is so stupid the IRS doesn't even have to bother with his pathetic joke 'businesses' that are in reality just a pile of stinking debt that NO US bank will touch. When a business is going well it pays down debt- Trump has never...

For those with terminal stupidity. The Republicans always cock up the economy. Trump's insane debt mountain makes a mockery of the US economy-if you ran a business like that, you'd be insolvent for decades-exactly like Trump. Without his Russian mob money through douche bank he'd have been toast...

Bloated orange moron has already trashed your economy and status in the world- but keep up with the death and infection rates- looking peachy for a Covid victory. Nobody thinks Trump is a good idea

Oh don't I know that! Tring top explain selling an option that I don't own! I just say it's exactly like insurance- I've had so man yletters this year though and 3 cocked up years going back

I think this explains it better- but a loss can be used to offset tax in a number of ways.https://www.litrg.org.uk/tax-guides/self-employment/working-out-profits-losses-and-capital-allowances/what-if-i-make-loss

You do not have to report losses straight away - you can claim up to 4 years after the end of the tax year that you disposed of the asset. That's only a one off for the next tax year though- same with income tax self assessment. I see no use in trying to revenge trade this year, so I'm letting...

Example an option might be quoted 18-20.5 on ICE.com but it'll be 16-22 on IG. Hard to keep an edge unless you are strangling and holding for a few weeks - not for me.

HMRC have got sniffy about this over time, but it doesn't work for me as the spreads on options are terrible.

I had thought about that, but I'm really not money driven! I don't mind paying tax- though I resent council tax at £50 to get my bin(which I haul to the end of the driveway) emptied - you know what I mean!

I shall be carrying forward losses as I pay income tax as an options trader. I have had a couple of losing years in the past and this only offsets the next tax year. Wondering if I can claim CGT allowance on shares, though

It does not say if it was for a credit or debit- either way a quick drop in VIX would make the 17 puts lose much more than the 21s -I do ratios all the time.

Missed that- however these can trun on a dime so it may have done very well -I'm alwasy suspicious of the 'insider' stories

It's a ratio spread and may have produced a credit due to the vol smile and subsequent drop -options are multi faceted. I always look at premiums first and my website shows wins every week

Firstly apologies for my rant- Idespise Trump with a passion and it seems the gutless White House pussies are terrified of his threats and menaces. I am no socialist but the radical right have hijacked the US, and spread lies about Biden and the Dems being socialist. It's simply not the case...

Truvey I thought you were ok but clealry the Trump team has got to you. The US is at zero risk of socialism-you people hate each other - if you had any fellow feeling you'd have free healthcare. It's why so mnay American women used to come to the UK to have a baby. That and the fact that...
