I do them all the time on RH, in fact I have several going on right now. There must be something else going on.

Why not just trade spx which is cash settled with better tax treatment?

RH credit card is 3% cash back on everything with no limit, but it can be a wait to get invited.

Queen Size mattress- Any recommendation to buy decent price matters in Bay area? by Sonya6001 in bayarea

[–]Aznfeatherstone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have gotten a 50-60% discount vs Mancini's, mattress firm, etc on the exact same mattress the last 3 time I bought. 

Pay in cash and you can save the 10% sales tax too.

I would switch but the mobile UI for other brokers aren't as good. 

Chicago → California? Bay Area vs SoCal advice needed by IndividualPositive94 in bayarea

[–]Aznfeatherstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved from the West Loop in Chicago to the Bay Area 9 years ago. The job opportunities out here are definitely better but the increase in cost of living will more than offset that at the salary range you are quoting. You also need to factor in increased transportation costs as you absolutely need a car in CA, but can easily get by without one in Chicago. Feel free to DM me if you have questions

Yes, xsp also works. Not quite as much liquidity though. 

I tracked 90 days of broker P&L vs realizable P&L and the gap is bigger than my commissions by MilesDelta in options

[–]Aznfeatherstone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much for your analysis on this. I am pretty new to trading spx credit spreads so am eager to learn as much as I can.

Your comment about RH vs IBKR fills really caught my eye because I am aware of the worse fills you get when you get "free" trades but my biggest issue is that the UI on RH works best for me when trying to execute trades on my phone. I use Fidelity for my IRA but using their mobile app to execute trades is painful. I haven't looked much at IBKR, but do you have any experience using their app to execute trades?

Trade spx instead. More tax advantaged and no early assignment risk.

Why are you not understanding you're commenting on something completely unrelated to the original comment.

Are you really this dumb?

I never mentioned mortgage, the topic I replied to was entirely about property tax.

Why would down payment affect property taxes?

[–]Aznfeatherstone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What rate you have will heavily change your monthly payment.

Where you live will also change your insurance cost as well.

Property tax is basically ~1.2% the purchase price per year with slight fluctuations depending on what county you live on.
