Volatility spiked up for some reason?

Wrong forum ---- Options isn't gambling.

Kayaking is better with one person while canoeing is better with two.

Wheel is a good name for that strategy. Lots of work and you don't get anywhere financially - your broker would like it though.

I prefer FB over a companies website (especially TV and newspapers) because of the comments. When you weed out the trash you come across some very good posts. IMO ..... FB is the epicenter of all websites.

Is this not good for you? You get to keep the premium from an expired ITM option.

The gross sale of booze is probably unchanged. The pubs are closed, so the consumer has to buy it from the liquor store.

AAPL earnings April 30? APPL at 283.00 Weekly (May 1) options are cheap - $6.25 for the 285.00 calls Is April 30 the correct date? By Thursday those options will be even cheaper. IMO ..... those options are TOO cheap.

Then it skyrockets up 10%+ after earnings.

NFLX is first up. Will NFLX set the tone for earnings this quarter? Options - as expected - are very expensive. ATM about $26.00 on a $440 stock. Earnings and options will be crazy this quarter. Sellers and buyers beware.

6:05 EST or CST?

Thanks ,but the formula doesn't work. I came up with a new example and tried keesa's formula. A = 124 B = 970 X = 124 (input) Mapped to: C = 0 D = 100 Y = 14.66 (output) Y output should be 0, but it comes up as 14.66.

A = 0 B = 270 X = input (example 73) C = 0 D = 100 Y = output ?????? What is Y? I'm looking for the math formula.

I am looking for the math formula to map a large range of numbers to smaller range. Example: Old range: 0-270 New range: 0-100 Thanks

You might have been reading an old article. When weeklies were first introduced they were only tradable for 7 days or so before they expired. Weeklies options are relatively new - about 10 years.

Why no IB?

Earnings coming up in a few weeks - options could be VERY expensive. Or maybe some companies cancel or delay their earnings report. This could be interesting for the option market.

Does the country have to be shutdown? Canadian stats, USA might be the same with 10x factor. Canadian 2019-2020 COVID-19 virus pandemic 2019-2020: 6,258 cases Canadian 2009 H1N1 influenza virus pandemic 2008-2009: 23,376 cases 2009-2010: 39,018 cases

No reason needed. The market is irrational.
