    The real risk is it becomes too toxic and folks who come not to hurl insults simply leave. We have over time lost some great talent here.

    No, it's not. Getting flat or trading the bull synthetic vertical is risk management.

    The problem is that people with no knowledge or experience come in here to conflate rolling/wheel BS with edge. It's sacrilege. I don't go to my lawyer/doctor and tell him how to do his job.

    It's always these Y1 noobs who read some retail vol-book and thinks they invented the wheel (no pun).

    If they had any skill whatsoever they would quickly move beyond CC/SP.

    We're not children.

    Martingales don't work. Spreads/combos are tools. Structuring (save exceptions) is not an edge, but anyone with any experience can recommend a better expectancy than a CC.

    Anyone with any reasonable sophistication or skill at trading vol would not run a CC-portfolio. Don't defend idiocy.

    We've saved him (our) time and money.

    I volunteered on Obama's Senate campaign. I canvass every General and mid-term. My wife donates large sums to Dem PACs and individual races. Yeah, 100% MAGA.
