Quote from TRYKtrading:

the synthetic put was actually a slight mistake on my part initially, if you go back and read my posts, the software kicked me into the JUN20P when i wanted the JUL22P.

You state that you understand synthetics but then post a statement like this. I can only come to one of two conclusions. You don't understand synthetics or for some reason you find pleasure in lying.

Although it may be ignorant on my part, I've given you the benefit of doubt that you are not a patholigical liar and I will kindly point out that the JUL22P has nothing to do with your synthetic short put position.
Look, I'll ask this one more time. You posted a trade. I asked a question regarding why it was constructed with a synthetic. I'd appreciate your honest response. If you don't want to answer or don't know the answer then that's fine. If you want to "string me along for your pleasure" I suppose that's fine too. Whatever gets you through the day but this will be the last time I ask and if you are trolling then I won't take any of your words seriously from here on. I imagine others have already taken this course of action and if you alienate everyone then you'll have no one left to read your posts...

Sure. I am long xxx of the GS June 110/135/ BTW, I have more real-time trades posted on ET than anyone, and w/o question that my hit-rate on stated-trades is the best on ET.

honestly, Dana, and please take this at face value, really couldn't care less if you were Steven A. Cohen himself, about your record, your trades are of no interest to me, and I take Wdnesdays off to have fun.

I wish you the best of luck with your trades.
Cheers.

I answered your question. Draw your own conclusions.

I honestly couldn't care if you were Jim Cramer himself. And if you were, I'd want to be his friend, because I respect him immensely, going back to when I first started trading at 17, watching him scream on CNBC when it first went on the air, moreso than anyone I'm aware of with the last name Cohen.

And I couldn't give a flying fuck if anyone reads my threads. I'm not the least bit interested in fame or infamy either.

I'd answer the question exactly the same way, and I'd string him along the same as I would you or Dana or any other reader of this thread, because in the end, all that matters is I made money today.

Booyah.

I see. I'm sure you and Jim have a lot in common.
 
LOL. You are definitely the dumbest guy/gal in here.

Quote from TRYKtrading:

i am never concerned with commissions, they're tax deductible, and the spread is getting into arbitrading between months and strikes, and that's not my focus unless i'm specifically trading options, and if i'm doing that, i won't buy the underlying stock.
 
I dont get why you and others spend SO MUCH time over this guy. Has it STILL not become abundantly clear that the main motivation for this guy IS TO BE RIGHT rather than making money?

One guy I read about stated it very correctly: Everyone gets what they want out of the market. And this idiot gets to be right, even if everyone else proves him wrong and he overpays in commission, spread, and what have you.

Time to move on I would say ;-)


Quote from atticus:

You stated you didn't want to be short puts. The position has a short put component. Here's a dissection.

The long spot position from 20.45 coupled with the short call from $0.91 is equivalent to a short 20P from $0.46.

You are short the June 20P from $0.46 x 100, synthetically. It's identical to selling the 20P outright, but added commission and microstructure risk on entry and exit.

You are long 50 July 22P from 1.91
You are short 100 June 20C from 0.46

I agree. I'll admit I take some pleasure in forcing him to constantly reverse course to cover his gaffes. Stuck at the office all night, but I agree there is better things to occupy one's time.
