"Right on!" Yeah -- I have found it a mite annoying in a hurry, but JEEEZ let's not be StockTwits. (No offense, SOES, but if you're sipping a whiskey when you're posting? You might consider taking a bigger sip, and ... just.... slow-inggggg... down-nnn-nnnn a bit.)

Just a reminder -- as humans, we have it so very much above (most of) the other animal species, in that we have an ability to conceive of abstract constructs, build deductions and intuitions around those constructs, and let that inform our lives. Yay, us. However, "as humans," we are also...

Do you want me to hit google for you? You've got this, Jack.

Ummmm -- the point being made is that YOU are not watching the underlying, but one, single, fractious derivative of the underlying. Capiche?

One of the best ET posts ever?? "Why, Yes!" :)

Fear not, man. This will be the first State Of The Union in.... 30+ years... that I am *specifically* intending to miss. The way I figure it, if I listen to the Large Lying Orange Sack-o-Shiite for too many (cumulative?!?!?) minutes, I would become a mass-murderer. As a reasonable guy/reliable...

Sure it's easy -- you go to the other side. But under no circumstances is that market manipulation -- that's "a market." :wtf::cool::rolleyes:

If he could explain it, we'd all be doin' it. :cool:

It's institutional hedging, so it's counter-market.

My clarifying question to the OP would be "...the rest of *what*???" Has a position been *entered* on the turn? Or is it that a prior, trend-based *entry* is in fact looking for an out?? Dunno!

Thank you. *Somebody* had to say it. :p

"do market makers just take price in the direction they want?" It ain't me. :cool: (But FWIW, what you've picked up on here has been a reliable 2-3 minute indicator for a good couple of years. I don't know how it's not better recognized. I've touted it, at least. :rolleyes:)

Bad juju.

Dude -- whatever battle you're fighting, you won days ago. 'Kay? :rolleyes:

Vicious, vicious rumor....... :cool:

I *think* you and FSU mean, "close out [the] GE [$30] put, buy a new GE $16 put TO KEEP :wtf: the downside protection aspect, and keep GE because, hey, an old-line brand with plenty of tech behind it, in the process of reformation, is a recipe for price improvement," right?? (I'd still seek to...

"Money talks; bullshit walks." This works for markets/trading, too Prices -- especially in a thinly traded market -- can be all over the place -- of which 90% might be bullshit. ("Ooo! Maybe somebody will hit "MKT" and I'll get hit on their mistake!" sort of things. Phooey.) So, if that's the...

You know, since the delta on that put is (I'm guessing) 1.0, you are not going to lose any more, should GE plummet to 39¢. With that in mind, why not make a game out of it, and see how much of the current ~$270 loss you can recover, and sell a call on GE?? I think its IV was in a fair range (for...

Sometimes, TWS' flexibility can be a little confusing. Unless I'm tick-scalping off of BookTrader, I trade off of Quote Monitor pages, and the individual contract lines. 1) With GE and GE Jan2019 30 PUT on two available lines, put your cursor on an open line. 2) Hit the COMBO button on the top...

Oh PLEASE tell me you are not trading with a wireless freaking MOUSE! :D
