This may be last post after being banned for a few days by elite trader for what they called "TROLLING" of a paid sponsor! A little back ground on my situation with elite trader and my professional life. 1. I have traded for over 20 years successfully 2. I speak my opinion which of course i think is valuable to other people but it may not be 3. I try and be respectful as I can but when it is obvious others are being disresptful i will stoop to their level and say some disrespectful stuff 4. I have never trolled anyone in my online life and doing that would be a complete waste of my time at Elite trader I have tried to add some value to the site...why? because i like the format and it is a way to spend some time away from the trade as it works. 1. I was put into Elite trader jail for a few days due to what was called excessive trolling of a paid advertiser. I was banned for a few days. I have as so many others on this site had a different opinion and you can see on this site where there are numeous threads and posts where people actually do end up getting way off base and off topic and actually do what I would call an official troll of someone account. 2. I was being sincere in my different opinions on this site and with the person or entity that I was going back and forth with and there was no reason in my opinion for ban. 3. Do you ban people for excessive trolling or different opinions when they are not paid customers? without the numerous free users this site would not have any paying customers because they pay elite trader to be seen by the hundreds of people who frequent the site. 4. My temporary ban was a wake up call and it got me to thinking why does elite trader care so much about this one particular sponsor? due to my ban it opened up all of my energy to be utilized this past weekend to get to the bottom of who is and why thsi occurred and let me just say... it was an interesting weekend and with a new administration and possible jockeying at the CFTC and NFA I feel like maybe there is goign to be a true reconcile of people who claim to have profitable systems and charge money for them but then do not talk properly about risk. 5. As it turns out there are quite a few of these people from texas to minnesota and I am no SHERLOCK but BASIC skip-tracing on the world wide web with a focused intent sure can yield some incredible results and even my ALEX i mean alexa can find things that I never would have thought to look for but again this is just me stating the obvious which is on this site .. the elite trader be warned that the time you spend here and the people real or fake or human or bots or multiple accounts are just that... a figment of what you really think and perhaps if the new administration does pass new laws then there will once again be faith and truth restored even to free websites like elite trader. BUYERS BEWARE. Feel free to look at all my posts and you be the judge if i was "TROLLING" anyone and let me say it chilled me to the BONE what i found online and the correct regulators are being notified! Good LUCK to the ELITE
This does not sound like a fun weekend to me. I gather from your writing you're pretty intense. It sounds like you've leveraged this intensity into a very good trading career and my hat is off to you. I find these forums a great place to absorb new ideas. The banter is sometimes witty and there are a lot of sharp minds on here. Good luck with your quest but I'd let it roll off your back and have some fun on here and have a more relaxing weekend.
Relax dude, stop using this forum as a ranting page, this isn't a little girls diary. Act a little bit more like an adult instead of a 5 year old girl who doesn't gets her way every time someone disagrees with you. That will get you a long way.
From futures mag. ..... The second reason to use the vertical spread in a high volatility situation is the little known concept of trumpification. Trumpification is a delta effect caused by increased volatility and/or time. It causes in-the-money options to lose delta and out-of-the-money options to gain delta. All options in a rising volatility environment move towards a 50 delta. To see this effect yourself, go to your option trading platform and go to the page that shows the “Greeks.” Observe your deltas in a given month and record them. Then, for the same options, record the theoretical values. Now that you have recorded the deltas and theoretic values, adjust volatility higher, much higher, to better see the effect. You will be able to observe the “crunch” (trumpification) of the deltas, but more important, the “crunch” of the prices. This crunch is the tightening of the values of the options. It is closing the spread between the different option values. It is making the value of the vertical spreads cheaper.
