Use Kucoin, and purchase some UOS (Ultra), it will be the best investment you ever made :) Make sure to hold a few years.

Not all blockchains use a lot of power. Check out chains that use eosio, such as eos, wax, uos, ... they use almost no power compared to bitcoin. They are just a few servers running, many people are very ignorant about this. There are very excellent alternatives available, these will be the future.

The only cryptocurrency I recommend is Ultra (UOS), a game distribution platform. I look for 3 things, what is the use case for the token, are people actually going to use the platform, how are they going to get people to use it and how many people. Checks all the boxes. Biggest partnership in...

Why not just trade the bitcoin futures at your normal broker. Then you don't have to mess with crypto taxes either.

Eth is garbage for practical applications. Can cost $100 to make a transfer. UOS is the wave of the future, trust me. Buy a little, check it in a couple years and thank me later. Partnered with AMD and Ubisoft. AMD is going to market ultra by offering their software install on all driver...

In an options spread on spy stock, in the quote panel, at times today the bid was much higher than the ask. What is going on here?

If I have an in the money call calendar spread approaching the near term expiration, in the account window, it says somewhere close to $2000 for post expiry margin. This is for a stock around $200. Assuming that I let it expire and take the assignment, will my margin on the following day be...

There are many options traded on ES futures, I trade them often as well with good liquidity.

Are there any liquid futures options on emerging markets? I found the emerging market index options (mxef), but they don't look very liquid.

for example xsp market price of 322, the Jan 10th 310 call trading ~12.30 while the 310 put trading ~0.15 Those are a general idea of how it was trading. So why the extra 0.15 for the call over the put in time premium?

I noticed that with about a week until expiration, a deep itm option on the s&p index xsp has about $15 more time value than the same strike put, I guess due to interest rates? Would being long a future instead of the deep money option have any cost savings, or would the future also decline in...

I have seen an article where backtesting shows that delta hedged short straddles are profitable in the long run. I wondered if anyone has experience trading butterflies and delta hedging at the end of each day, and if that is profitable?

Hello, I have 3 calendar spreads on ES futures open. They are using options expiring on Nov. 21st & 23rd and are currently out of the money. Current margin is around $300, but it shows post expiry margin of $4900. This does not make sense to me. Why would post expiry margin be so high. Assuming...

Hi, why was svxy down about twice as much as xiv today? I thought they both moved the same?

If you don't have anything useful to say, please don't respond. I understand options very well. As long as you close a reverse calendar before the long leg expires, you are covered quite well with much less risk than many other option strategies. Hence the much lower margin requirement when you...

Hello, first of all, why is margin on a naked short ES option about $9500 when the margin on an ES futures contract is around $6000? My second question is: I want to hold a reverse calendar spread until expiration day of the front option. When doing a reverse calendar spread using ES options...

Hi, I have never had this happen before, but at interactive brokers, I was trying to buy a spy 248.5 call for sept 29th, and it would not let me buy it. It said something like invalid contract or something, don't remember exactly what it said. Then I tried buying the 27th call instead, and had...

Easy problem to fix, simply trade spx options. No chance of early assignment.

thanks for all the info!

I like trading vix products, but I do not understand some of them. Can anyone tell me how these vix structured products work or refer me to a website that explains them. In interactive brokers if you type vix into the quote field, there is an option to see structured products. It is these I...
