My option trades

Quote from ursofos:

kevin, all i can ask any of you is to really look at his record ...ever note that his calls end up "flying" off or some oddball synthetic new creation?

I'm trading, both sim and real, various variations on one of those oddball synthetic creations. Works pretty well. You might try actually reading what he posts and thinking about how to work it rather than making a nuisance of yourself.

Somehow, I don't think that's going to happen...

Like this one?

"Short the shares [JPM]"

That is pretty straightforward. And a great call. That post was the first hint I had that JPM was in trouble, and it came days earlier than other posters' short calls.

BTW, "flying off" (buying wings) on a short gamma position has saved me more times than I can count. You give up a little edge, but you sleep soundly.

I have to respond. I'd love to see a complete record of the trades I've posted to ET if someone is up to the challenge.


Admit nothing. Deny everything. Demand proof, then refuse to accept it.

MIND BLOWN
 
Quote from Kevin Schmit:

Ursofos is undoubtably someone whom Atticus called out for BS in the past, maybe Proflogic or someone like that. Just getting his revenge anonymously. Again, sending a threatening PM with only 5 posts under your belt should be grounds for instant banishment.

Clearly he has no interest in contributing, he just a bone to pick with atticus. His nick is "your so full of shit." Clearly ET is not interested in any sort of moderating...disappointing because this is one of the more active/beneficial forums.

We won't hear from ursofos again. Anyway, good luck this week.

You still posting? I thought you were leaving.

And if atticus ignored him we wouldn't have 30+ posts about some guy with 6 posts that has a "bone to pick with atticus". Atticus craves attention and that's why he shared the PM.

Hopefully we can now get back to the original purpose of this thread and discuss option trades. I will be updating the SOCL trade has it unfolds. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3526409#post3526409

I can add that I know for a fact that Atticus took a large broker to the cleaners when they mispriced a box option model. Not too many folks have the skillset to pull that off even among professional option traders. Anyhoo, I welcome the volatility, mkt is a lot more tradeable with vix over 20.:)

Now THAT is where I'd like to be....

WOW!!

Hey qqqoptions, that's a hint. It means gofyouself
 
I'll go out on a limb here, and risk reprisal from some. I honestly think Atticus knows his stuff, and has been very helpful to many on this board.

Not sure what the controversy is about, but as far I can tell, he's helped a lot of people.

FWIW,


Don
