Dude is up 300k for the day and asking us for advice on how to reduce commissions??? I really like this guy:)

Not trying to stir the pot,but why would any trader stream their trading???

No disrespect,but people are gonna call bullshit when you state that you are an amateur,just getting started and 2 month ago you were a passive investor> trading 1 lots>quick learner,and are now swinging 200 lots multiple times per day... Doesn't add up

2 months ago,you were in your trading snuggies flipping 1 lots,and now you got your big boy boots on trading 200 lots,multiple times per day????? Things that make you go Hmmmmm...

on the plus side,its only 50% as ridiculously priced as it was when it traded at 239 :) Im not disagreeing in any way as I presented the same argument in the other thread on BYND.. We were eventually right as the stock cratered,but we were dead wrong before being right Take a look at Growth...

Amibroker is decent too..

Quantshare is pretty good

Are you saying you are a buyer of LUV at 10??? Theres not much you can do on that one..:)

Cant be very specific if we dont know what you are looking at:)

Whats the problem here?? Put on a long dated spread with positive delta and flat/short vega

Yes indeed... Ill let you guys in on a secret.. In a stock like TSLA,should one be so inclined,you can GRIND out 500 bucks per day picking off relatively mispriced options..I hear the algo story,but I beat them to the punch all the time.In fact,they are my friends... Im not bullshitting...

Not sure where you are going with this... Other than 2 way flow(and OPM),the distinction between "big firm" vs "retail"is meaningless... Its a question of being gifted or challenged/good or bad.. Forget about your proprietary model. There are stocks out there which will have mispriced options...

Hey Poop,is your "don't short naked vol" specific to CL,or is that a policy of yours..Pretty sure I have read posts where you were short synthetic straddles in TSLA..Just curious

That's right,rub it in...:) When the market was melting down,I put on the May 280 340 1 x4 call spread for even money.. On the rally,I sold out for apx 2 bucks,leaving 10 bucks and counting on the table.. Definetly my biggest weakness.. Did you leave it on as a punt or scale out at all??

You want it to snap back up..

LOL!!! My apologies,i misinterpreted what you wrote.. My issue is,in a world where the market goes down for a nanosecond and then rebounds every F-ing time,I never make the money I anticipated on ATM backspreads..With that said,maybe i should start expanding my horizons and look at the longer...

Off the top of my head,I dont believe you make any "real money" trading the ATM/25 D 1x2 backspread in a crash. Yeah,the OTM strikes picked up more than the rest of the smile,but they lost vega as the market cratered,while the pre crater 25D put blew up,had real vega plus your gamma kicked...

Yes indeed... I will have to check,but when the meltdown took place,I got in to the May 2800/3300 1 x 4 call spread for even money. did a similar trade in AAPL..I do not hedge these type of spreads,knowing full well that the Vol(wings) will get crushed on a bounce while the skew reverts.I was up...

When the market tanks and they blow up vol,along with the skew inverting,it's the closest thing to free money you will find.. P.s.. Im talking about the upside skew

Not too mention the vol skew inverted and then reverted plus the vol crush..which us what I think you said:)
