So you are equating the best of the best hedge fund managers with thieves??? Yeah,you have major envy...

Jealous much??

Take,a look at Quantshare(or Amibroker) and backtest a portfolio of chosen stocks and run simulations with different stops,trailing stops,profit targets etc... For shits and giggles,optimize the levels and then run WFA.. It's the only way to get a decent idea of how stops/trailing stops affect...

Take a look at ORATS and find out for yourself. These type of questions are easily answered thru simulations.

Then you my friend are an Artiste!!! Thats a compliment.assumi g you make money:)

Not sure how you could not place a stop at the time of trade....

Ok,I get it...Price action/TA first foremost and "only"... You dont factor in "derivatives" of price.. Do you trade equal dollars andrisk equal dollars??

So you never adjust for volatility?

If I read you right,you sold 75% at 390 on the overnight??? If so good for you....

What's the difference?? Upside vol picked up,stock was off 21 percent Hoping he blew it out in the overnight around 390..

I'll be,taking applications to star in the new reality show I will be producing, "Real Traders of ET"... No real experience in trading necessary.. Must love drama..:)

Yes...Im either in a split strike fly or ratioed at least 20 percent wide..I will go tighter,1.5 to 1

You mean you would buy the stock and exercise the put.. Or if you were short the put,you would short stock, hopefully being 100 percent sure you were assigned on the short put.. Your wording was a little confusing:)

How many shares are you buying on the opening?? New is one thing..Dangerous is another :)

Haven't traded Reg T in a while,so I'll punt and say minimum cap hit will be 10 percent of stock price plus premium..Ball park 60 bucks per contract..most likely more.. Does he have 240k plus??

Fuck yeah... Better off with Reg T than Portfolio Margin.TOS will simulate up and or down 50% for TSLA.. Im not so sure I would be reccomending shorting calls against TSLA until I knew how much of his net worth is being exposed.. Im assuming its decent as he was short 20 puts(again big...

FWIW,I am (almost always)short the upside skew in TSLA.Its been flattening..Not so sure about the upside vol getting any more jacked,but I hope you are right..Long live Robin Hood

I concur,with the exception of that beast known as TSLA:) If I am not mistaken,I don't think you can buy back anything neat ATM for a nickel...

In case I wasn't clear,cover your expiring TSLA short options( near the money) for pennies..

Dick move by Volente getting the hate party started in an appreciation thread :)
