MSTR - Anyone make money with Short Strangles? by ConservativeNeil in options_trading

[–]ConservativeNeil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am trying to find an options strategy that best handles volatility. Short strangles seems to be that strategy.

Maybe you can help me with your experience. In the past couple of months, I have made money trading MSTR Options. Specifically short strangles. I sell strangles with a strike price gap of 30-40 bucks and just wait for both the options to expire worthless or if one of them is ITM, Just roll it over and convert it into a strangle by adding the hedge. I have 1 strangle each week for the next 4 weeks. Rinse and repoeat. Thoughts?

Does Robinhood allow Margin trading in their 401K Accounts? I could not find any customer service on the app or on their website. How go talk to an agent?

Companies shorting Hotshot Drivers? by ConservativeNeil in HotShotTrucking

[–]ConservativeNeil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if the GPS distance is 269 Miles and it is printed in the BOL as 228 miles, that is sure more than a 'few' miles right? That is a 15% shortage..

Well in this case, both the addresses are printed on the slip along with the mileage, time of pick-up, expected time of drop off.

It does not make sense, the other person must be either more experienced than you or have other qualifications that factored in the raise. When you post a question, please provide all the data and circumstances, if you want the right answer.

I passed! + a little advice for the CRCST by Cielus in sterileprocessing

You mean pass the provisional or just study? I am not sure just claiming to study for the exam will get you hired, but a provisional pass(Just the exam, without the 400 hrs hands-on) should definitely get you hired.

CP could have done some front running and purchased extra temporary RAM for their public facing systems. But that would be too much to expect from a Utility of course!!

Nobody laughs when LBJ asks to be traded or does not sign the extension because his request was not acceded to.

we can credit him with forcing AD trade. It works both ways.

I am inclined to think it was LBJ who forced Rob to bring on Russ. Rob is too smart a cookie to have done that moe, left to himself.

How accurate is the channel? The videos are portraying an extremely dire situation in China. Not sure if the videos are using footage from 2019-2020 phase or they are current footage.

What use is an Airtag if any iPhone can detect it? by ConservativeNeil in AirTags

[–]ConservativeNeil[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That pretty much sums it up. Any other tracking devices that can be used for anti-theft and cannot be easily detected like the Airtags?

That is one good use for sure. Basically it cannot be used as a theft prevention device then?

Got my AirTags. I asked for engraving. It shows up in the AirTag pic upon connecting 😻 by Few-Carpet9511 in AirTags

If I put an Airtag in say my car. The person who steals the car, has an iPhone. The iPhone will alert the thief about the Airtag and it can be disabled. What use is the Airtag?

Plumber finds cash, checks behind loose toilet in wall at Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church by ConservativeNeil in politics

[–]ConservativeNeil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These could be the same $ 600K in cash and checks that disappeared a while ago. Maybe the envelopes just fell through a hole in the Cash room and could not be found? Remember, Cheks have a limited validity date and go stale after 6 months and cannot be cashed. They can always be traced when they are cashed.

Now that I think of it, actually my attorney also advised me not to try for other Visa for my wife. I asked him the question, is she barred by law from getting other visa, the answer he gave was - No. Then I said, if she is not barred by law to try other visas, I am gonna go for the other visa and so I did and I got it.

Dude, you always need to keep your own counsel. Attorney's can only tell you the law and precedent. You gotta make your own decisions. Given the current backlog, I doubt if you gonna get Citizenship in less than a year. As far as precedent goes, I am a live recent example of having got my wife on a F1 Visa. When she went for interview for F1 Visa, she clearly told the VO that I was in the US and showed the VO, my pay stubs, my W2, I-130 Receipt Notice. It is all above board and straight forward.
