    Market Value calculation of option

    You realize you bought TSLA option calls on earnings right? If they didn't crush it your contract would be completely worthless now. Earnings calls are usually for gamblers.

    is Cathie Wood’s fund in trouble?

    I stopped following her newsletter a while ago.... It almost seems as if she is lacking the ability to understand stock behavior and buys heavily into companies based on her faith or it fits the design of the ETF

    is it better to pay commissions?

    If you do fast trades/scalps esp lowfloat smallcaps then yes, you should probably look into a commission based broker with superior execution. I wouldn't go with IB unless you supplement it with DAS trader.

    What happened to PYPL?

    A ton of users switched over to Venmo. But I wouldn't short PYPL at these levels. A technical bounce is bound to happen at some point. Perhaps, it may see the low 170's support first. SQ pretty much on the same boat. They will run in unison.

    Valuable Lessons learned from trading

    All but the ones in bold could be adjusted to the type of trader you are. Personally, I do make trades at 9:30 am from time to time. I trade options so the dynamic is much different if you just trade the underlying. (Def not for newer traders tho.)

    What happened to PYPL?

    JAN 21 200 calls looks good. But I don't have the patience nor account size to afford holding this for weeks.

    anticipating market moves when patterns break

    Perhaps, that is where better experience and market intuition comes to play which is something that can't really be passed on? Your threads on here always gives me a raised eyebrow. :rolleyes:

    Best realtime option scanner for daytrading?

    Wouldn't it just be simpler to find a scanner for stocks running up then? If the stock goes up so would the options. I have never heard of an live scanner that can scan percentage gain for options tbh

    Noticed bid/ask spreads very wide currently in the options market - curious why?

    TSLA always has wider spreads. As for AAPL, I took the 177.50 and 180 calls and haven't noticed wide spread. The 177.50c was a few pennies at best while 180c was always within a penny. I traded both of these tickers today. (AAPL was choppy AF!)

    Not a bad setup. Was looking at LULU today for a daytrade in options. Got too occupied with TSLA, NKLA & XXII.

    What exactly are you scanning? Unusual volume, flow trading? All useless anyways...

    If I use a Canadian broker as American do I pay taxes twice?

    What makes you think you can simply find a loophole like that? There is no Canadian broker out there that allows US residents due to PDF laws. Otherwise, an American broker could just open an office at Canada and get a ton of US customers under PDF rule. Jeeze! Use google...

    Trade zero and shorting

    Use to be 7x they lowered it after I made a rant on ET! Was charged $500 for one night. Thank god, I did make enough on the short to cover the fee. Perfectly timed the offering to be released the next day. Learned my lesson to never hold HTB overnight.

    how do you make sense of seasonal market trends?

    Wut? We've been in a pandemic market for over a year now. Seasonal trend change hardly even applies in this type of market.
