Margin Test - Urgent!

[vinky5]

Is anyone really good with options and margin? My brokerage account is struggling bad and I need to apply for portfolio margin so they won't liquidate my assets at these very low equity prices. I answered all of the questions but I wanted to see if someone could check them for me please! They said I could use any resource other than their Margin Department Professionals. See attachments and my answers below: Thank you for input and help!!

You need to apply for portfolio margin so they will liquidate your assets at even lower prices ?

Q5 is B

I am not sure about Q7. One of you is right LOL The answer is either .47 or .53

11 is D

Not sure about 14

Not sure about 18; it is either A or B

With respect to all other questions, my answers are the same as yours

5. b - 2.50
7. c - 0.53 - Short put, gains delta as price drops, gamma describes change in delta for $1 move in underlying.
11. d
13. d
18. b

Did not look at the other questions. IMHO, you should be able to answer these questions on your own before using the additional leverage that PM allows. There's a reason why they don't give everyone PM.

@vinky5, how is the test environment? Ie. can you do this test at your own computer
and use your own notes and tools? How much time do you get to complete the test?
How much score do you need to achieve?

The way @ET180 described it is the right way to think about it. It's "c" (0.53).

Not sure about 18; it is either A or B

It's a poorly-written question (I used to design tests, and I hate seeing crap like that with a passion), but if you're looking for a common metric to evaluate theta across variously-priced stocks, 'b' is the only answer that makes sense.
