  1. Yes, arrogant, stupid people who forget their training if they have any don't know what they're talking about. That is indeed the case.

    I will be 100% correct with regard to what will happen to this "trade."

  2. Hank, I would not want to sell Mar at 75 cents, even if I were wildly bullish on the broad market. I am bullish and there are many preferable bull spreads here.

    FWIW, your spread is long the market and I take your "nuke" comment to mean you're intent was bearish index/long SDS. This diagonal is not bullish SDS/bearish SPX.

    If I had to make an even money bet I'd put it on atticus.

  4. If bwolinsky were on the otherside of the trade, I would put even money on a half eaten donuts and a cup of cold coffee

    Are you using Reg T margin? Because if you are that short March call has a big margin requirement right now; the shorter duration long call does not count as a hedge for margin purposes. Are you taking that into account in your return calculation?

  9. Ummm... did I ever specify for either party where their errors were?

    We obviously now know the typo error by hank-- BWego within his response clearly showed he is not at all qualified to be judging an option trade...

    So in answer to your Q-- yes still ROFLMAO...
