    "before or by the end of next week", "stays flat or goes down", seems you are profiting in every possible scenario providing little to zero transparency about your actual entry timing and levels.

    Talk more shit and you go on full block.

    Short straddle was for when market stays flat. Short underlying was for market to trade down. I opened the trade when i posted the thread. I posted the prices. My risk was continued upside in that pair. But since my models predicted flatness or down i opened this combo. It was high probability trade based on stats and it worked as expected.
    I was right in direction and with timing. Can't get any more accurate than that.

    Please please block me. And don't write in my threads again. You either got zero clue about markets or you just pick fights for no reason. So, do me a favour and get lost please. Thanks.

    So, let's get this straight: you call a 2 day trade where you hardly made anything on the short straddle nor on the short position yet took a large risk holding over the weekend with government shutdowns under discussion that might have the potential to blow up your position, gamma wise, a great trade? When did you hear about options the first time, the day before you entered your first trade?

    There is a old saying at the poker table : "If you can't figure out who is the patsy in the room than you are the patsy.
    It seems that you are having a problem figuring out the comments..

    If you are knowledgeable about option trading you should be able to conclude which one of the above choices is correct.

    Wait. So, You mean where he thought my short straddle + short underlying combo don't profit when price trades below my entry price, that this is somehow correct statement? :)
