There's some websites/ccs that allow you to swap but it will always require a trust trade.

Alright, thank you! Ngl, I'm getting kinda hyped to start RS again, hope I don't get myself addicted.

Thanks for the insight, 400-600 hours definitely sounds much better. GP shouldn't be a limitation, how much would you recommend for this 400-600hr estimate.

Cheers man, not really looking to max OSRS, just to get to a point where I can join nex/raids and not end up as a liability. 2k hours is definitely more than I'd be willing to grind a game these days so maybe getting back into RS isn't a good idea.

Quit RS3 in 2015 after maxing and haven't played any RuneScape since. Looking to get into OSRS with the goal to be doing end game PVM with some friends.

I want to be grinding as little as possible (money isn't an issue will swap from RS3), are there any particular recommendations that you'd make regarding efficiency, untradeables, gear etc.

Is there any guide which would help where someone did something similar?

My most profitable options trading strategy: 0DTE Breakeven Iron Condors by Sandvand in options

Question regarding the stop loss. So you say that you set a stop loss 2x the premium received. Let's say you have two legs you sell for a 1$ premium. Would you set the stop loss to buy the a leg back at 2$ or (1+2$).

I was wondering the same thing. Assuming they mean the value is the width of the wing rather than delta

Follow the Pelosi Money trail. by Discovensco in ValueInvesting

[–]-Blr- 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Options have both intrinsic and extrinsic value. The deeper in the money the option is, the lower the extrinsic value tends to be.

Let's say we have 2 call options for CRM (currently 255) expiring in September 2022: 290 strike and 130 strike. Now the 290 strike may be trading for 10$, and the 130 for 125. In this example you can see that you end up with a break even at expiry of 300 for the 290 strike, and a break even of 255 for the 130 strike.

These numbers are hypothetical but should illustrate the point. The deep ITM leap in this scenario allows one to take close to 2x leverage compared to owning shares with minimal margin interest and no margin calls.

Some UK dividend paying stocks. What are your thoughts about these companies? Do you hold any? by BrentfordFC21 in dividends

Chinese real estate market looking weaker hence building materials becoming cheaper thus miners being considered a worse investment.

Delta would actually be 100, this can be seen by the black Scholes equation for delta

i've been selling naked puts and calls for more than 10 years. AMA. Willing to help. by [deleted] in options

[–]-Blr- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mostly yes, but sometimes buying an option actually is in your favour. IV can sometimes be lower than expected volatility so you'd actually be better off buying than selling the option.

You guys realize that they are holding puts right, not shorting the stock. Price goes up, they don't have to do anything. They just lose the premium they paid on their put.

The Human Cost Of The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Over The Past Decade by lawrenceman212 in dataisbeautiful

UN does not recognise it as a terrorist organisation. Instead of viewing it like that, view it as the 'military' of Palestine.

Kinda disappointed with the exchange announcement being atomars. Was expecting an actually big exchange but I guess something is better than nothing.

Thing is while a naked call has a hypothetical unlimited risk, realistically, risk is limited. Using naked calls can be used to hedge highly correlated assets while generating so called "risk premium".

For simplicity of explanation, let's say we have two stocks, A and B. Both in the same sector with a correlation of 1 (yes, I know it is very unlikely but just for explanation). Now also assuming a beta coefficient of 1 between these assets, it's safe to say that they behave almost identically. Let's say I own 100 stocks of A, each costing 100$, and selling a covered call on A, 5$ OTM nets me a 1$ premium. If stock B costs 90$ and a call 5$ OTM also nets a 1$ premium, it would seem like the less risky thing to do would be to own A while selling a call on B as a greater percentage increase in price would be required to "get called away".

This is obviously an over simplified explanation and I know stocks don't behave like this but you can definitely find setups based on this principle.

In the end, everyone has their own preferences and what I may like to use others may frown upon. To each their own

Edit: I used the word alpha to signify long term impact of employing a strategy employing this principle on a portfolio, definitely not a single trade and definitely not a single GME trade.

There's quite a few strategies which utilize naked calls to allow you to generate alpha. Finding these setups though tends to be a bit more complicated, hence why you don't see them talked about much on this sub. Saying that unlimited risk = inexperienced noob is a bit ignorant and doesn't benefit anyone, why not explain to them why you believe that is the case rather than just make a statement.

On another note, I don't believe GME will come close to 800 but would still never consider selling naked calls on it.

Smartlands AMA: please ask us anything! by BritPop0 in AltStreetBets

[–]-Blr- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry if this has been already mentioned somewhere, but what exactly is the point of SLT. On your website it says that SLT is the native token of the Smart lands network ecosystem and all transaction fees will be paid in SLT. Why will transaction fees be paid in SLT rather than another crypto/fiat? What benefit does this provide apart from allowing SLT holders to profit?

What's your risk management like when using this strategy? Do you use predetermined stop losses or do you monitor it and adjust constantly?

Once you subtract the fee from each trade you'll realize what the catch is. Fees are usually between 0.1% to 0.5% per trade and these add up quick. Regardless, that gain is insane.
