My prediction on IBM and TXN after earnings

  1. You didn't earn 300% on margin, only on the net-debit. A 25-strike risk-reversal is simply a synthetic short, and at full margin. You didn't make 10%.

    I can provide a 250% ROC on an OTC exotic option account for July (statement from broker) if you'd like to wager. PM me and we'll compare runs.

    With your attitude, I am not sharing anything with you and I don't need to prove anything.

  3. You stated a 300% profit on what is essentially a margined position in the shares. You could not have earned 10% on margin in the synthetic nor the risk-reversal, let alone 300%.

  4. Any thoughts on <a href="http://www.socialnews.biz/tag/IBM">IBM</a>'s anti-competitive's practices in the EU?

  5. attitude? omg, you did say:

    Buying back naked Puts and Selling Calls on 25 strike price (risk reversal) which gave me 300% gain is huge. Yes 8700 shares with 0.7 gain while most of the investors are losing money is huge. My July gain is 51%. Dare to compare ?

    plus i can vouch for atty's record in july.
