Option Question about Delta

Discussion in 'Options' started by the, Dec 29, 2011.

  1. I won't be using Sentinel 4 for my covestor model. I will use my pairs system since Sentinel 4 daytrades.

    It is for futures.

  2. Not 5bp's, 5 cents.

    The tangent is the equivalent of taking atm call option trades with delta's of 0.5 or 50%. Casually, yes, it's within the range predicted by delta's previous value from the change in the underlying the following period.

  3. Show some restraint. The upside is that you know that you can't possibly fuck this further sideways.

  4. It's true, I can't, unless I bring in the binomial probability model!

    Would you like to test 5 stocks, calculate their deltas, and track them to confirm the 5 cent rule?

  5. Where are the answers to the good questions on this thread?

    dvega/ddelta/dvamma/dfuckyou/etc are not answers.

  6. I think they might be in the first 25 pages somewhere, but, my answers, more specifically, whether you like the numerical example I tried to come up with, do provide the information required to know what delta is for, and I'm not going to repeat it here, because I said it more than 5 times.

    Do some reading.

  7. Show me something that is of positive value.

    BTW: what happened to your bearishness on the QQQ/market at the latest bottom. It is documented in my thread. I assume you have been reading it. Here is the link:
