    No good. 2014 is going to be a bad year with option reporting and all. ;)

    It's pathological. Everyone is a f*cking hero.

    AAPL is Overpriced!

    No BS stating you're up $90 over spot. If you're going to make a call then do so, but without the handicap. This place is already stocked up on hindsight champions. I don't deny that you bought where you did, but it's moot unless stated at inception of the trade.

    Nice job, and next time don't come on here after the stock has rallied 90 to report your buy.

    ACA is a joke, but this is all smoke and a convenient excuse for their shitty operating co.

    Triangular Arbitrage Question

    No, it actually got better with time, then they issued the press release. The corridors were ok, but these were not the fwd-starts. These were near-ATM touches priced as digitals. Obviously (for those who are unclear) you cannot price a true ATM touch. You drew a skinny horizontal hit out from...

    AAPL is Overpriced!

    Dumb assumptions. The multiple may be 20x with the stock at 300 when demand goes to shit, and they will be DESPERATE to issue. Debt is leverage. Nobody acting in their self-interest would pay 4% if earning 2%, unless you're a delusional American consumer. Obviously the arb is operational in...

    AAPL is Overpriced!

    It's worse (than a split) when the shares drop. It's a trade, period. You're implying it's an arbitrage. They should've done share offerings at 695 and then a buyback at 375. So what? Einhorn's 4% perpetual is a smart idea as their net will always be a multiple of financing, and therefore the...

    The Most Important Lessons You Have Learned From Options

    Please stop. Your statement has been disproven countless times in the past with all the prop blow-ups related to capital and not regs. There is no risk to letting your K1 member use 15x-50x outright. Sure, tell us another fantasy. Have you ever actually traded anything beyond box-tops?

    Triangular Arbitrage Question

    And there was no penalty for going out on duration. The difference between a 1W 40D and a 5W 40D was like 5bp. I would've arbed the term structure but the things were free money as outrights.

    The Most Important Lessons You Have Learned From Options

    wtf? Are you stating that the upside from his profitable traders is w/o risk? It would help if your grammar wasn't that of a 6yo. lol, what puts, exactly?

    AAPL is Overpriced!

    Right, and the HR person is clairvoyant. wtf is the point of these mindless time-travel hypotheticals? Determinism. Steve Jobs was a corporate and cultural phenomenon because he became Steve Jobs. Ya, he dropped out of Reed College... what a resume draw. Maybe XYZ corp should take a write...

    Triangular Arbitrage Question

    No, they killed it worldwide (including white labels) some time in 2012. Makes sense, right? Scrap a vol-platform due to DF in Europe and Asia.

    Triangular Arbitrage Question

    haha, yes. Dodd-Frank forced them into 40D touches that paid out 70/100.

    AAPL is Overpriced!

    Job's talents are not applicable to Dilbert positions. The idea that Job's would be "hired" is proof that the question is pointless. His value was macro, not micro. Pixar, NeXT, etc.
