    Jim Cramer got margin call on live TV?

    I was quoting- selling naked puts is for assholes who have never known anything but QE fuelled markets. The second line is mine and is confirmed with some irony about pharmas

    Jim Cramer got margin call on live TV?

    Writing naked puts on stock you’d like to own outright is a great way to buy wholesale! With vol at such level you may be right but then all stocks except pharma will be worth peanuts Oh wait.....https://uk.investing.com/equities/glaxosmithkline

    I'm getting whipsawed, and I need advice/opinion

    FFS do not sell anything naked -grow up people you are idiots to try and trade this. You simply cannot take from the market all the time. The rubbish traders of the last decade just got their backsides handed to them and good riddance. They thought they were genius. Stay OUT -read a proper book...

    Jim Cramer got margin call on live TV?

    selling naked is the supreme stupidity and arrogance of so many assholes. May they rot-filth like that destroyed real volatility.

    plunge protection team- it costs 'peanuts' relatively in low volume end of day trading to ramp up the indexes -they do it often

    Black Monday?

    Plunge protection team out in force with the grandkids' inheritance. The FED cannot make Chinese workers well enough to work, and nobody, absolutely nobody is telling the truth about COVID-19. Show me the recovered people- not one news service has done so- not one. This is not a silly game with...

    The economics of pawn shops

    that's another argument -but when I had no money I walked everywhere and lived on porridge for 2 weeks-with no money for heating. We are all equipped to deal with finances differently and no amount of education seems to change that. I do feel that the media keeps banging on about how 'we're...

    400 Trading Algorithms Later

    The market s NOT a zero sum game. I buy stock ABC for $10 from a man who bought it for $2 -he sells as it suits his profile. I buy as it suits my profile. I then sell it for $15. 2 years later it's $100 yet we were all winners. I trade options as I like to be able to choose when and how I eat...

    Iran MP offers reward for killing Trump, U.S. calls it 'ridiculous

    $3 mill? Heck I'd think anyone with a brain would happily get rid of the Orange Twunt. I'd be more concerned about collateral damage- his wife is well fit.

    Option selling. Too good to continue?

    My worst trade after 5 years full time? -watching short puts go to 300. I could have closed them out for 3 the previous week. I must have paid somebody's college fees for 3 years. That's a lot of 3s!

    MA Crossovers. Yay or nae?

    I trade UK index options and post a real trade each week. Not retrospectively, but in advance. I have yet to see these systems sellers do that-they just show you last year's chart for Amazon. All my 160 + trades can be seen warts and all on my UK site -message me if anyone's interested as I...

    OK Boomer, Who’s Going to Buy Your 21 Million Homes?

    I think inheritance is a crock -and maybe 50% should go back to the state-in the UK we have so many subsidies, like health it'd be good for people to pay something back, and the kids can go have a tantrum

    Few people talk about how boring trading can be

    Of course it's boring -if you want a thrill jump out of a plane or sail the Atlantic in November. Day trading is another mind set- no idea why people do that, when you can make serious coin with options and work 30 minutes a week. I suspect it's thrill seeking and most people blow up after a...
