No big deal..off by an odd lot "Forbes has recalculated Kylie’s net worth at just under $900 million."

Did you backtest on the indicies and or stocks,and run the stock portion as a portfolio of 30 plus names?? Im doing the Orats trial..Matts a good guy..

I think there is more to this than is behind said out loud.. No dog in this fight,but if you read the original post from Balck,it would certainly appear he is a major shooter with little experience trading futures.2 months ago,he was flipping 2 lots,now He is throwing around 300 lots...He may...

If you look at his graph,the covered call strategy performed nearly as well as MSFT stock..Didnt give up much in terms of performance..In a down market,vol picks up and you could probably get close to 2 percent for the calls..

D,nothing but respect,but if you are over 50, watch out for your shoulder joints with the weights you are tossing... Been there,done that

Lol...3 posts??? Fail:)

Hi Matt,nice simultion.Like that you can run the backtest over a portfolio as opposed to a single stock.Looking at the results,it certainly makes intuitive sense.If you can get 2% of spot for a 10 Delta call,thats really high vol. And in a runaway Bull market( other than 2008 and the 2020 V...

Now that you said that,I pretty sure my Mom used to say the exact same thing your parents said..Good memories indeed..

As my mom used to say"Health is Wealth"..

You clearly have never been balls on the ass broke:)

Your initial post is a little confusing.I get that you are trading IF/IC.Im assuming you are holding them..You say you are hedging the Vega risk with VIX calls and sell before the bell.Im assuming you mean your VIX hedge. So you are day trading VIX(not holding overnight),and exposing yourself to...

I dont understand why you are "daytrading" the Vix as a hedge while exposing yourself to overnight risk and gaps..Find it hard to believe you arent giving up any "edge" on slippage/bid offer spread..Are you really that concerned with intraday vol pops on a limited risk strategy?? Ild be far...

Hey guys,FWIW,I am taking a trial with Orats,and Matt is by far the most responsive developer/software guy I have come across.I am no walk in the park,and for the record,I have no affiliation with Orats :)

Dont be lazy...Backtest,Walk foward,Rinse,Repeat

Hi TEO,where did you pull those charts from?

The Markets on the options are on the quotes he attached..Really wide market on the options,but apx 29 bucks on the short leg..Just add that bsck

Hey Matt,on your output report,is there any way to see relative performance of the option strategy vs position in the underlying instrument?? Would like to see equivalent holding periods versus one another..

Pretty sure IB has an optimizer..

Judging by his P and L swings,it appears he is trading in between 5-10 mil notional... Thats more than 10k of APPL,not factoring in adjustments for Vol..

What does "Poops" mean??
