  1. Wow, it’s been an amazing couple of weeks! The Karen the Supertrader improved strategy is doing well during this correction. I’m up a measly 70.33% for the week. I’m holding 163 naked positions in /ES. Merry Christmas and Happy Trading!

    He didn’t say he bought puts. Or if he bought them, it could be a part of selling strategy, hedging, leftover from sold spreads, legging-in, legging-out, etc.

  8. How much is 163 naked ES positions in margin?
    > 500k?

    Somehow is doesn't make sense why expanding volatility and a semi crash market would be good for option sellers, aren't most sellers delta neutral,slightly negative deltas ?
    Seems like negative deltas are eliminated after one major down day, forget about a major down week.

    Jesus H. Christ dude, GTFO now!

    If I was that high in profit I'd be so GTFO NOW considering this market's recent price action, I would BANK THAT SHIT.

    GET THE FUCK OUT NOW! What is wrong with you? Stop gloating and TAKE YOUR PROFITS NOW NOW NOW!

    Up 70% and still holding on. I am in disbelief. TAKE THE PROFITS FOR BLOODY SAKE!
     
  10. Do that 1,000 times in a row and report back.
