The #1 Skill In Selling Options

  1. Oh we read it. The gist of it was:

    “Don’t buy a call- it’s rigged; buy stock and a put: way different!”

    They’re trying to help you but you’re not keeping an open mind.

    When I made markets on the ISE, qqq options were 100k up 5 cents wide. That’s 10mm shares.

    "Available on kindle."

    Two great CBOE stories. The unnamed MM - who has since passed - reversed a sell/by in OEX long-dated puts the Friday prior. The mistake was the GNP of a small country in his favor. His MercClerk read the hand signal wrong. They got the report too late. So he came in 10/19 long with a boatload of LD puts.

    You obviously didn't understand what I wrote. I never doubted the fact that it's not a zero-sum game on an individual basis i.e. when one person wins, the other person must be losing by the same amount but I just observed that the payoff from that zero-sum game is not equitable or symmetrical on an overall temporal basis.

    It's OK you don't get it.

    That's not what I wrote and I never mentioned any specific options, calls or puts in my message. You obviously have either severe reading comprehension problem or you didn't read it. Troll somewhere else.

    Everyone is nice to noobs?? LOL Sure if they agree to your bs otherwise they are on PCP, LSD right? LOL like what you wrote here:

    They can't have their own opinion and god forbid that they want to stick to their own opinion. They have to accept your garbage as the bible right? LOL Anyway like I said, you are just a troll. You haven't really given me any empirical proof or mathematical calculations that counters what I have proposed. What you observed what MM does is not it. Since you are just a troll, I just treat you like semi-entertainment, not always funny but hey it helps me pass the time since trading gets boring sometimes.
