We're all quite sure that an options max delta can only be 1.0

We've all had similar misses but the soft delta on the wingers is inexcusable

okie dokie

Ati, sounds like he was not a very bright MM. He should know a bit about soft delta.

dmo is right as usual. beatingthesp, you have a habit of looking at positions in a very limited and one dimensional way, as you learn more about options hopefully you’ll be able to expand your ability to think in more then a single dimension options wise.. No one is suggesting buying the...

Its really not an awesome play. You'll lose more over time then you'll make on the rare itm. Those options are not bought by professionals in hopes they go in the money they have other uses in more complex strategies and money management. Nor would a professional sit there an hold one through a...

Aug Doritos how now?

Hey coach you know I repsect you and hate to see you like this but I want to help you back on your feet. X

If you dont understand delta then you cant possibly know the effect of buying a random put on your net risk. Not a single position you've discussed is a pure synthetic underlying play. Dont forget the SPY is not a stock.

My how the mighty have fallen Coach!!! Just kidding

Thats the point people were making. You say its part of your method yet you cant define it. Most people in the industry would then classify that as a hunch or a guess or a gut feeling, and we all know those three along with wishing, hoping, prayer, and bullchitting are the most popular...

Its not that one year is statistically insignificant its that absolutely zero substantiation of your record makes it insignificant. I don’t need to defend Atti, even with my 20 years in the business and as well as I know options I would not be so inclined to imply that he needs you to dumb...

Oh I am sorry I was still waiting on you answering how you calculate market sentiment which people asked to hear 15 or more pages ago. I see you changed your website to get rid of some of those inconsistencies, I guess that’s a good thing.

The profit claims are pointless no matter how they're explained since they're not backed by anything but hot air

It should be noted that beatingtheSP is not consistent in his claims. Sometimes he says he's up 35% over that period and other times he says his index is now 35% higher then the SnP. There is a major difference. That’s just one of many inconsistencies in his posts. It appears as if he...

Funny on your web site you say those strategies or positions above are no good because you have to wait for expiration to make any money. Now in the above post you say you use them. When you understand options you learn you're either long options and the associated risk or short them with the...

I dont see anyone other then you being cranky. Why is it then when people on these type boards get some exposure to facts they always think those who are providing those facts are some how doing poorly in the market? Its a common theme with those who endlessly post unsubstantiated claims which...

Nor would you need to. Beatingthesp, the point people are making is that you have at this point adjusted your stories so many times as they have been pointed out to be dreadfully in correct that this thread has now degraded into noise. You continue to say you use the terms incorrectly but...

Becareful with what you see at the close on anyday. Options dont have "settlement" prices each day. If you're looking at the last trade in a particular series, that trade my have occured long before the closing bell. Getting back to the main topic, selling time, especially over the weekend...

Oh no one mentioned a 100k account, I was putting things in perspective.
