DF , I put him on ignore because of style of his reply , I don't debate people that's start their reply with "LOL". My ms was about odds for certain scenario that other poster brought(all players at the same level) , rather that general debate if poker is about luck or knowledge. Do I belive...

you need help , really. On Ignore...

VERY WRONG ! In poker house collects certain % , without any risk of losing , for their services that they provide to players ( like a room , tables , dealers...). So if 10 players brought 10$ each to the table , they are playing for 98$ max ( and 96 next day and 94 next one). If all players are...

strongly agree , and if the game runs on neutral territory (like casino) , the edge goes to negative because house takes small %

notice that OEX spread is much better , 50 cents vs. SPX 2$ , while the stock price is only double

got it ! thanks again

what should I enter in column "Underlying" to see the individual quote ? Let's say for ATM put and call. Thanks , SS

Does IB displays weeklys today?

thanks. I think you are looking at regular NOV options

do you actually see words "weeklies" ? What ticker ?

thanks for the info. Spread is only 5 cents , I wonder what the spread will be for the weeklies.

LOL , good post

if one belive in perfect option's pricing theory ( hence , zero expectancy for initial position) , then for any given time period without change in IV it should looks like this : Possible ABS % change = ( ATM straddle premium * Price of XYZ) / 100.

long ATM straddle and close position every Thursday before close. No adjustments.

I'm wondering how much money some MM lost on this trade. How this 'delta neutral options hedge via stock" strategy working for them now , ah ?

Smiling , I heard this from other people too , that they used to sell but stopped. Why ? The vols / vix was in the lowest 10 percentile (only 1:9 chance to go lower) in the last 10 or so years and people sold premium , but not anymore. Can you explain why? Thanks

right , no time or vols matters. Its very simple : if GOOG goes up (or down) by a point , I am losing on short , but gaining the same point on the call and vice versa, so its always stays 17 points .... unless it will go below 310 ( then I will make more)

cannot . By shorting the stock , I "locked"/sold my 310 calls for 17$ ( I wish I wouldn't , its 21$ right now)
