Quote from marketdecoder:
Your comment is constructive and its technicality is spot on. However , the name (the nut) is symbolically reflect the nature of highest chance of winning, not high chance. Let me ask you something, if right now, Facebook drop to 1 USD, and you buy it, how would you rate it in term of poker .. would your buy has a very high chance ( or highest chance) of winning down the road?, and you would consider calling it the Nut, and would it be straight flush kind of nut , or full house nut after the price make its move through many price layer ($30 price as flop, $10 as turn) all the way to the river of 1 USD price .. Now we are symbolicly at the river level of 1 USD price point, if you are to buy at 1 USD, would your confidence be at the Nut level? The nut level is just my proprietary term that i coin to express this kind of high confidence at certain price level based on the technical signal i has decoded and experienced. In your case,if the BUY facebook at $1 USD (river level) is considered the nut BUY, and my selling from 58-62 bonus is considered the Nut Sell (as 50 is flop, 56 is turn, 58-62 is river symbolicly). How consistent will you win with this the Nut trade, it is remained to be seen in time. But if it is correct first 10 out of 10, it should be seriously considered as good analysis material to base trade on from your point of view as i already experienced much in Forex and Gold, and again in stock , it remain to be seen if i can do this or not since i have not much experience as i do in forex, if you would allow me. If not consistent, then any name calling for making a fool would justified, and for my part , would have to go back to drawing board and stop being a stinking gibberish loud mouth. There is still room for improvement, but it is at its best that i can decode so far and begin put it on the record.
You're obviously selling something.
Now, you can't quantify the R/R (heat-taken, not arbitrary stops) on this FB short, which is reflected by the 56-6x range. It's vendor-speak. There is no application of conditional probability here. When I have the nut flush, you don't.
