Dear @schweiz penis, That straddle is marked to 18.44 mid, as I am typing this. 30.6 - 18.44 = 12.16 (gain).
80.8K shares bought. Price in posting May 3, was 254. Price when I posted today was 231.9 (231.9-254) * 80,800 = -1,785,680. in 11 days time. After he went long, because all indicators were screaming LONG, we made the lowest low since begin 2017. At that point he lost over $2 million since his 254 posting. LOL.
Bought shares 233.8 -> Sold 1600 250 calls to effect synthetic straddle with shares above 250. 30.6 was the credit on the synthetic straddle. Straddle was MTM at 19.8 when I completed the (synthetic) straddle. Straddle is currently marked to 17.99 mid. You're literally too stupid to debate.
At least he posts PnL blotters. You claim to be this master ES trade making over $250k yet I've never seen a single blotter post from you. Yes, I lurk much more than I post.
That trade gained more than $800K. I made more in that spot -> straddle -> fly that I've made in my current 50K short. Criticism is fine; defamation is not. Dest-out.
destriero, I can only speak for myself. But thanks for showing your PnL to let traders know it is possible to make money trading. Thank you,
I could not find "Trading Options for the Mentally Ungifted" so this one will do... maybe learn how options and synthetics work.
