100-90. 1x4 What duration?? Going to run a backtest

Dude,now you are flat out trolling

Keep it simple and stick to the math.. If you want to ballpark probability,look at the Deltas of the strikes and go from there... Play around with IV and see how it changes your likelyhood/odds

You sold the spread for a buck ..How much can you make??? Do the math

No disrespect,but you should brush up on option basics. You sold a 5 point vertical for 1 dollar. Think about it

You are operating above my weekend paygrade,but Ill go out on a limb and bet you are using a pipe :) On another note why the FOOK is a guy as bright as you trading thru Robin Hood??? (see above??)

You should read up on reversals and conversions,carrying costs,short stock rebates and the impact of dividends..A little understanding of synthetics would help as well

There must be some reason a smart guy like you trades thru Robin Hood,but if you went over to TOS,Tradier,IB you wouldnt be having this issue.... If you are hell bent on staying there,spend 15 bucks per month on OptionStrat..

You had to bring that up

I would phrase it a bit differently.. Orats is the shit...:)

Why not move over to TOS???

Do you use Tiprank as well??

Orats is the best program out there for analysis and backtesting. .Why do you need a visualiser?? Who do you trade thru..Dont they have a decent analyzer?? OptionStrat is a pretty decent basic visualizer if you don't have one Keep in mind most of these programs can not custom adjust...

If I am reading you correctly your Slope measure offers more information than the widely used 25 D put- 25 D call due to the "curvature" (gamma) at different percent of spot.. When I chart Skew in Orats,I typically look at the 25 D ratio of 75D/25D as well as 90D/10D The difference between...

Thats always fun..another exception to the rule.... Divs,borrow.... I think class is dismissed :)

Barring div,an option is worth more alive than exercised.NWD pointed that one should short stock against the long call to get out and "get the put "for free.. Giving up the "free put" was why I questioned exercising early..

Cheap shot:) There was zero chance I was introducing the revolutionary free put concept..

I should have added if there is a wide bid offer on the deep ITM and,you want out,selling stock and exercising may be the most efficient way of getting out...

Oh boy,it's worse than I thought..
