now you're turning desperate. me no care if you think i'm full of it. me no care if you think i'm anything. i make trading decisions by throwing darts on the wall and looking at my magic ball. happy now? just 3 hours ago, you were telling me to go fuck myself. the fuk would i ever...

once again, mav is revealing his level of knowledge in options volatility, which is he knows very little. he seems to have this odd philosophy that "hey, if i don't know what's going on, then everybody else can't know neither!" amusing.

i wrote my own software. [b] you want me to disclose everything to everyone that i don't even know? i gave out some general principles. i think that's enough for now. :)

vulture, i'll tell you exactly where mav's entire reasoning is flawed in this thread and why his general approach to options is preventing him from discovering opportunities. throughout this time, he's been talking about neutral expectancy when you either long or short options. well, that...

what value are you talking about? i think he's damaging you newbies more than helping because he's presenting a very narrow view of options. every time he posts, i actually know what he knows, but i also know what he knows could be wrong. he's a bit stuck with theoretical textbook learnings that...

so i can hear your psychotic voice? no thanks.

all i asked was how the market was treating him, and then i told him he didn't really need to answer because it's kinda obvious, and then he just exploded. and he went into this psychotic rage. i guess asking maverick how he's doing is like asking a fat girl how much she weighs.

you're touting someone who used to be at worldco? lol, now you're really really killing me! hey mav, why don't *you* pm me if you think you and i have an issue. my only issue is some guy posting duck tales and just not making any sense of reality. what you posted was freaking...

deal with what? i think you should stick to die probability theory and leave duck tales out of your posts. your stories are straight from the bar room, except no one's drinking here. SOLD!!!! :D

actually, the jackass is the one who actually believed the guy who told him that he made money every single day and was down only 4 times a year in trading. like.... hello! anything in there? :) :D

you're claiming you know a guy who was a full-time trader and he made money every single day and was down only 4 times a year? HAHA now you're spreading duck tales. next you're gonna tell us about that football game in high school where you were down by 28 points in the fourth quarter, but...

like the following. this is why i see no value in talking with you. you just blow up like in all the other threads i bothered to scan in. it's not like you know a lot. what you know is just basic amateur options marketmaker stuff. nothing more fascinating than what a 6-month susquehanna...

if you've been a profitable trader, good for you. you certainly don't act like it with your level of whining. you seem to be more interested in hurling insults than contributing to a thread. you keep on saying there is no edge (this is such an overused word) in selling juice, but what you...

by the way, mav, why don't you reread this post and ask riskarb how his friends made money. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=803837&highlight=aspen#post803837 i am not surprised that they did well nor am i curious what they were doing because i already have a good...

let me rephrase. it's not easy money. it's higher probability money. but unzipping our pants and showing the size of our wieners is not really what i care to do unless you really really want to see. if you are familiar with options writing, you would know that selling options towards the...

and i got statements to show you how some easy money is made.

apparently at options that you haven't been looking at. the thing is that i see what you see, but i'm not sure you see what i see. you're making a lot of generalizations and stating them as if they're the law, but i'm telling new guys and describing things in more open possiblities in what...

you're making a generalization that happens sometimes, but not all the time. most get discounted by friday morning when nothing is going on. thursday morning is still closer to thursday value than monday morning value, and that's close towards the end of the week. like, duh.

when entering a short option position, you should sometimes think of entering your trade towards the end of the trading week, so you'll get to experience that lovely weekend decay to cover that initial bid/ask spread. if they're front month options and not too far otm nor itm, what you sold them...

what i said really has nothing to do with MO. it has more to do with not writing stuff for 20 cents on a $65 (or whatever it is) underlying. the reward is just too small. and otm puts are precious. you just don't write them for 20cents with 16 days to go if the strike is only $5 (or...
