I think nitro may actually be working as "the dark side". Preaching "sell 'em" as the market is launching skyward and "buy 'em" as it's about to...
Uh, dude, that straddle recommendation was made long ago.... The calculations you have presented are just for the past week.
Still a winner. Although quite a bit less than 4 days ago.
Well, whatever you bought (paper or otherwise) was stopped out. 1257.80 as I write this...
Quite interesting.... your post @10:22am CST has the volume in the Oct 1270 call zero. It's now 10:36am and its still zero... Hmm.... Paper trade?
Unless we enter some bizarre zimbabwe style inflation (also requiring 30yr to crash) the chances of a 100 handle rally are effectively zero. BUT...
From fundamental (xFV) trader to technical analyst to psychologist, to philosopher.... I guess you have all the bases covered!
Perhaps you need someone to hand you the towel?
Uh, the goose is cooked. You want it extra-well-done? Burnt to the bone?
Solitary bar stool at Cactus?
I guess this coming from someone with the handle "failed trader" is appropriate.....
I'm guessing it did, but not anywhere as much as it is up in profits now. On the contrary, nitro's theta bleeding long calls are unlikely...
Looks like nLtro was right on. 100 handle winner??? Short Sept 1325 straddle?
The first element of economic intelligence spoken in this thread (with the exception of some comments by someone named nLtro)!!!!! Bravo!
I suspect they are quite "Schweddy" http://www.hulu.com/watch/4156/saturday-night-live-nprs-delicious-dish-schweddy-balls
Not making fun of anyone. Just my observation.
What's really annoying are the 100% incorrect market predictions!!!
And suddenly its "grossly undervalued"????
Want to know where to send the check or should we wait for the close. Going to be a close one.....
I'll take some of that action. 50k worth please.
