    You can join in now. I'm at the Maxwell House sipping their brew as we speak. Virtual gots to taste better.:)

  2. I just had a capp made by my Tassimo. Highly recommended and world's better than the K-Cup machines.

  3. So don't use delta for an ATM $3-strike either? How about a $5 strike?

    K-Cup's suck and are crazy expensive.
    I'm not a coffee connesuir. Folgers instant for me!

  5. The Tassimo cappuccino (two discs) are $1/cup, so not cheap. Roughly equivalent to the SBUX capp, w/o the bitterness. The Tassimo has a barcode reader and adjusts to the temp and pressure.

    I've never had instant, so I'll have to try it some day.

    That's pretty high tech. I don't think the K-cups are very high tech.

    The nicest two things about instant coffee are it's cheap (like 4 cents/cup) and it's fast (hot water, add coffee, stir, milk, sugar, done).

  8. Since there is no European option you have an example of this for, I don't feel like answering.

  9. I don't know what you mean by "don't use delta." It is not a probability, so in that sense it should not be used to predict ITM probability.

    Delta will tell you approximately how much the option will move for a $1 change in underlying...I think I've said this five times already.

  10. The CFA Institute would not be happy with this sort of talk right here...
