    Why people of Madagascar and Turkmenistan still alive?

    But if we trusted data from China (or their zero covid approach) a year and half ago, we probably wouldn't be in this huge mess in the west now. I don't trust China, but do I trust the west? No way A bit like the guy on your profile picture... I wouldn't trust him with taking my rubbish out...

    BTC $500k, ETH $42k, ChainLink $1,400

    How could they touch or crack down a few strings of alphanumeric characters that I own on a piece of paper, usb or in my head? They should turn off the internet too to stop me from exchanging it. They know that, that's why they are slowly adapting to it.

    BTC $500k, ETH $42k, ChainLink $1,400

    I wonder how many remember that Bitcoin was powerful even when it was seen as an illegal thing, and mostly traded in anonymous exchanges like btc-e, or overpriced p2p sites like localbitcoin. During those times as a clandestine, it went from nothing to 600$ a piece. Today, it's taxed, it has...

    How to short the S&P using options? Day & swing puts

    In regards to options, knowledge is not subjective as mathematic is not an opinion. As a learner I appreciate the fact that when a self-righteous ignorant shows up here pretending to be a big shot, I get to learn and reflect on a few new things from the real traders in the forum.

    How to short the S&P using options? Day & swing puts

    No, not suggesting, just trying to learn too :D True that Ken enquired about intraday and options are expensive. I have noticed a few times the "unless you are trading the greeks, stick to D1 underlying" concept, and I try to understand why and how when it comes up.

    How to short the S&P using options? Day & swing puts

    I think all of those etf's have options available. You could papertrade some along your daily trading, see how they behave and compare.

    Second-largest U.S. mortgage lender will accept payment in bitcoin

    Maybe one day they will regulate it all, kill theter and switch it with digital central bank issued currencies. Keep taxing it it as most countries are already doing and let it be. This might cause some massive swings, but will it affect crypto existence or its value forever? I wouldn't bet on...

    How to short the S&P using options? Day & swing puts

    There are a lot of layers and dimensions with options as they are not linear like "delta 1" spot trading, and you are trading the greek intricacies of a complex contract more than you are trading raw price. I am self-thought and not professional, but I will attempt to answer your question in a...

    Bitcoin Price Thread

    Why people discuss market cap of a crypto like if it was a stock? I never hear discussion about dollar and euro market cap... Or gold market cap... I think it doesn't make sense to discuss crypto market cap, in a global economy that prints cash like it's shitting it out of nothing. I guess...

    Let's get this straight, politicians are afraid of crypto. Crypto is not afraid of politicians.

    I am very much anti politicians... so come on crypto, kick asses. I want to see them cry. Fact is that, a crypto, which is "just" a string, abstract, deep fried air without backing some would say... has a lot more use and reason to be, than most politicians. Crypto might waste some energy...

    Missing data in IBKR charts?

    Sometime refreshing a chart template helps. Same problem here, always had it and I often use something else like tradingview. The ibkr android app appears more stable and user friendly with things like charts, than tws.

    Today, McDonalds, Starbucks, Pizza Hut, and others accept bitcoin in El Salvador

    You might be correct in theory, but in practice it has been my best store of value since 2017 (and probably in my life), and I consider myself a very late starter on crypto saving. I traded in and out BTC at 150$, Eth at 16$ before 2017, then started storing some during that year. Never felt...
