    What is this trade?

    He's missing the Sep strike. It's a bull vert + call. But why?

    Dude, Biden is going to win. You can start as many threads as you like and it won't change anything. You're fucked, sideways. You will actually have to do something with your days, like find gainful employment. It's going to be a landslide and he will have to be spoon fed during the...

    Fidelity's 0 Commission Platform, what are the cons?

    ATP is a cartoon. I have a current gen Mac Pro ($15K tower build) and it runs like it's on an XT-machine. I wouldn't clear Fido at gunpoint.

    You're asking the wrong question. No, the majority of retail lose money trading vol. I am happy to supply a mkt to you but you'll just blow-up.

    Are you a successful at home day trader with no other source of income who began with modest means?

    TBH, I'd retire. Your MF timing edge is likely no longer persistent and you've done better than most. FWIW, I liked your book.

    Selling naked put

    Stats are worthless. 0.01 ITM, but there are exceptions in very low OI series.

    So the condor is at 4/1 delimited. The mkt is telling you that 4/5x the trade will earn the terminal value inside the strikes. Are you willing to throw money at long-shots until they pay out? If so, then don't limit payouts. Backspreads or bear RRs.

    I am not tracking. You lose on skew and gain on strips (Sticky d/S). No way that this loses on a strike touch. The idea is that you are holding vega as it's a calendar over the vertical. Yeah, you are giving up the upside, but who really thinks we're going to rally 3K over the Summer? Honestly...

    Yeah, it's because you're operating the US equivalent of an LLC and they're looking for "shadow banking" tax cheats and launderers. I wouldn't be concerned bc you're such a fucking piker. #doublecalendar

    IQ by Country - Whites are not the highest

    Mind-blowing GOP stat although I suppose I am surprised that the GOPedophile party as a whole broke 100.

    Trade half as many and you have a triple on the ATM stress and will own Sep vola as Aug goes off. This is a day1 stress. Tenors are not equal (40 v. 68 days). You don't have weeklies with DJX but you can still vert it off when Aug goes off the board (fly; asym-fly; asym-condor). Stress on...

    Youngest (son) is taking a gap year to live in downtown Stockholm and travel throughout the EU, mainly Scandinavia, providing that travel is allowed. His cousin did it last year (her junior year) while attending Lund U as a Northwestern study abroad student. She graduated summa last month.

    DJX? 230/235/285/290P? 1) Don't trade deep ITM naturals. It makes no sense to trade DITM legs. There is no turnover in the deep stuff. Trade irons (synthetic). Always trade OTM when possible. 2) You're only risking a buck, but the mkt has to move 3K Dow to for the max terminal payoff in a...

    Neither will have any problems there. Oldest is at W&L and could transfer anywhere; Stanford, H, etc. Youngest got a 28 on ACT but will take it again. Same score as his brother's first time. SAT comparable but younger hasn't taken it yet.
