  1. Anyone traded this strategy and if so do you have any long term results that you wouldn't mind sharing or just share your thoughts and findings.

    I have a follow up question. Stocks. Does anyone have success trading this strategy?

  3. I have heard, from truly reliable gurus [1], that some people have done exactly that. Therefore, I shall buy some stocks and become wealthy.

    [1] I found them on YouTube; that's how I know they're telling the truth. The government would surely come and arrest them if they didn't.

    I didn’t ask about “buying stocks.” I asked about “stocks”
     
  5. Hmmm. That must be some new, deeply-sekrit way to make money. Do you have a Discord channel?

    Are these similar to the "stonks" everyone is raving about?
     
  7. Let me rephrase that question: Anyone trades
    monthly deep-in-the-money calendar spreads ?
     
  8. Calls = Puts, Puts = Calls. So the above is equivalent to trading deep otm cal spreads. Your view and therefore profit potential is the underlying has to make a large move towards the strikes to make money. you will get better fills trading this setup as deep otm options.

    yeah. All the time.
    Be more specific in your question.
     
  10. Do yourself a favor - assuming you want your question answered, that is - and work your way through the weeds before posting here. What is it that you really want to know? Write a post that can, ideally, be answered in one paragraph at most - people will usually expand on side issues if that's needed - and in such a way that the answer would be useful to other people.

    In general, no one wants to play 20 questions with you, only to find out that the actual question at the end of the chain was a waste of their time. Spill the beans, let the cat out of the bag, tukhes afn tish. Those who are qualified to answer will often do so - IF you tell them what you're looking for.
