Lets say we decide to pull out of world affairs and become isolationist just like we were prior to WWII. no more Nato, no more bases or soldiers etc.. We decide not to care if the Russians march into the Ukraine etc. If Countries in Europe etc.. were forced to build up their own militaries...

No big deal. I sold short some options on Friday evening. Collected net 26,645.00 in premiums. Short calls and short puts and some LTCM insurance for blackswan risk :) This aint shit, you must be a new trader and missed out on the real action a few years ago.

I would be a beach bum living in my waterfront home at Sanibel Island. I am not big into all that bling bullshit or trying to impress assholes. Just a nice quiet low key antisocial life.

I can get out of my NYC condo in 3-5 minutes. (using stairwell/not elevator) taking a medium pace. So I found something interesting, not sure why these end up for sale but they do and brand new with air in them in the factory box. They pop up on ebay, 100-130 bucks but they normally cost like...

Now I have 1.2 million dollars daytrade buypower. Time to go big or go home.

Naked selfies and actual intercourse are two different things. All the Naked selfies are because Millennial women have tons of self esteem issues so in order to prop that fragile self esteem they will post these selfies so they can get accolades and feel better about themselves.

Any Bull Semen drinkers? It brings good luck to trading. Anyhow new delivery came in.

I don't but I do not daytrade because I am an options trader not an equity trader. It is irrelevant to me if I am flagged or not but it is a very rare thing for me to be flagged since I typically do not trade intraday in and out.

It was the SPY ETF options. but I do not normally trade them it was a specific situation that came up and I took advantage.

Love insurance. hanging out not giving a shit what happens regardless of vote. :) Got in cheap it would have cost me twice as much to buy in. I would love to see the S&P 500 plummet down +6% friday. Hopefully folks bought insurance earlier when the bulls were running the game.

Is this a learning trade? It seems like a lot of effort for what seems to be lunch money?

Well looks like the Insurance is now in the green :) Lets see what happens tonight with this stupid vote.

Cut your losses. If I have a position that does not meet my criteria I cut and take the losses, taking a loss is part of business better get used to dealing with them. You get a tax deduction against past profits and you get your capital back to redeploy when your opportunity knocks again and...

Thats all I do. :) I agree though its a very powerful tool but it requires lots of study/years of experience, attention to details along with a good capital base and risk management policy in place. I would say its like Flying a 747-400 filled with filled passengers.

I normally never do this but sometimes it happens and it works. It all depends on the situation but yeah 99% of the Time it makes zero sense to daytrade options. I am 1 trade away from being flagged as a PDT which is very rare but its been an interesting week :) All from Options trading, Zero...

I finished buying some insurance to insure my position and like magic, markets start climbing :) Well my trade was 1.2% of total trading volume so far :) If only I waited 20 minutes. anyhow it is kind of funny it seems to happen regardless now the next day could be a different story.

Do you have a job? Can you save money enough to come up with 25K at least or 10K It takes about 10 years of heavy experience before you become pretty comfortable trading and becoming consistently profitable. Its no different than becoming a 747 pilot. Lots of learning and lots of cockpit hours...

You are better off staying low key and just working on it on your own, from what it sounds like you are doing well. No need to muddle the waters bringing someone in who will end up mooching or sapping your energy. Over time you will get better as you hone your craft.

The coolest thing is being able to trade anywhere. I was at the airport waiting for a flight and was able to sell some SPY puts in the process and close out some older trades. Its amazing what you can do and how cheap trading has become. Now you can even see full Level II depth on options on...

How do you calculate the probability of another 9/11 occurring within the life of the options contract?
