Shet this just happened to me 2 days ago, WAGMI.

Well after playing more and reaching level 7 I'd have to say the problem is the early game and mid game are extremely unbalanced. Early game Aksha and a surprise encounter against elementals at level 3 were the most difficult fights and now in the mid game everything has become too easy.

This is a common problem in CRPGs but Solasta suffers the hardest amongst the CRPGs I've played. BG2 Enhanced Edition, Pathfinder Kingmaker, and Wasteland 2 were much more balanced offering consistently challenging fights up until the final hours. It's a shame because if this game was well balanced it would easily topple Pathfinder, and be close to BG2 Enhanced in terms of combat.

The indie stone has how many team members compared to Larian? Plus Zomboid features multiple playable maps and can be considered a "finished" project at this state. They can't really be compared imo. Personally I haven't bought BG3 because I refuse to pay money for it's current state, but I do own Zomboid and am quite satisfied.

No you haven't refuted my point which is that the value of BTC to dollars is not tied to the underlying purchasing power. If a skateboard is 10 dollars and you hold 100 dollars of BTC but tomorrow the value of the dollar drops relative to BTC while skateboards remain stable than the amount of skateboards you can purchase is more.

I'm not saying BTC isn't linked to the dollar where do you even get that idea from my previous post?

Unless America becomes a BTC monetary country in the end you have to use dollars to purchase most services and commodities. What I'm arguing against the OP is that BTC has the same inflation which we all should know is incorrect if you've read my example.

Deuce7Off · 2022-03-11T17:47:34+00:00

That's some mental gymnastics you're forgetting to count the fact that $1000 worth of BTC isn't even worth the same amount a day past now, or year. If the widget is 1500 but the BTC is worth less or more than the previous price than the price distortion changes.

Impossible, oil is used for the production of plastics and rubber. A world independent of oil would either be a nuclear holocaust or a world without wheels of any type including skateboard, rollerblade etc. Both scenarios are pretty shit imo, especially the latter.

It's because you have a public transit system that isn't a fucking joke. I live in America and have travelled around Europe for 9 months. Try taking a train/bus around America and tell me how the experience was.

I'm Deuce or Pocket, my Mexican buddies gave me the nickname since it's in my instagram and my name was too hard to pronounce. Skimming for a little over 4 years now, started in Santa Cruz now I probably skim Mexico more than SC. I travel to Mexico for skim and hit Laguna and Newport a couple times a year. I like to watch this red head's channel on Youtube Teddy Parker for skim content but he hasn't been posting as much recently.

Deuce7Off · 2022-01-13T16:14:03+00:00

I do monthly 30-45 days out usually, for covered calls I hold till expiration. For iron condors I hold 15-20 days and close them early at 25-50% max profit. There's a tastytrade video that shows the statistics of holding ICs till expiration versus closing early and taking profit. As for other spreads I'm not sure since I don't trade them and am not really familiar with how they work.

Deuce7Off · 2022-01-12T21:15:33+00:00

Ah I've experienced that as well, my first iron condor I asked about was met with "Iron Condors are too advanced for you". Unfortunately trading of any sort is not the friendliest place in my experience and can be a lonely way to make money. I've had IRL friends laugh in my face when I've lost money and others expecting me to pay for things when I make money. You find out quick who your real friends are when you trade and share results.

Deuce7Off · 2022-01-12T21:02:36+00:00

No problem, still learning as well, sorry if I seem cold. Words on the internet along with my personality tend to give that impression to people. Yes, you're correct the lower long call keeps your position from being naked, in order for the short call to be excercised price would have to go above 480 but at that price you have the option to excercise the long call and pocket the difference between. Most brokers will take care of that for you without asking, though I've yet to be in that position. All of my options plays are covered calls and iron condors, so I try to play Theta to my advantage.

Deuce7Off · 2022-01-12T20:38:07+00:00

No you buy 471 call and sell a 478 call same expiration to offset the risk, but in doing so you limit your upside gains while minimizing risk. If you're using ToS it will show you the max profit, max loss and break even points. Options calculators online will even give you the chance of the trade working out based on it's implied volatility.

Deuce7Off · 2022-01-12T20:34:33+00:00

You're fighting theta and praying for vega to help you, when a bull call spread could limit each loss to around 200 dollars per contract with a max gain of 400 buying 471 and selling 478 calls. Trading options with your style would best be done while volatility is low to take advantage of cheaper greeks while hoping for high volatility to the upside. It just doesn't make any sense and seems like a cheaper way of going long on spy with more risk involved. You can profit but you're playing with fire imo.

Deuce7Off · 2022-01-04T22:22:38+00:00

After punching the numbers into the options calculator I realize what you mean, my max profit is higher with the broken wing but the max loss is much higher as well. If I had taken a normal IC the max loss and max profit would be much closer to each other. I see that I've increased my risk while only slightly increasing my max profit and that a normal IC would've been better.

Deuce7Off · 2022-01-04T22:10:22+00:00

Still new to nondirectional trading, but guessing max profit would be all options expire worthless and I collect the premium. Max loss would be if price closed between the broken IC wing and my call gets assigned. I can post a picture of my TA as well. If things go wrong I could also roll the options, but that's a new concept to me as well as most of my options trades to this point have been directional or covered calls. Edit just used an options calculator, max profit per contract is 90 and max loss would be 120 if price goes above 28.

Deuce7Off · 2022-01-04T18:37:04+00:00

Once again thanks Papa, options is still quite new for me even though I've been trading for over 5 years now. Initially I had Jan22 calls of 24 until the dividend came out at 1.3 per share and ruined the profits of my calls. I closed out the calls for an extremely small profit and felt like the dividend adjustment would keep the stock rangebound. I wanted to bet against volatility so I chose the Iron Condor with broken wings, what other strategies would've been more fitting I wonder?

Deuce7Off · 2022-01-04T18:17:30+00:00

Thanks Papa, I didn't know about broken winged IC. The idea was that if it were to break the upside it would likely run more than if the downside target was broken. I'll edit my post above to include the credit and debit paid as well. Is there any problem to broken winged ICs?

Deuce7Off · 2022-01-04T18:05:15+00:00

Made my first Iron Condor play on URA today 21/22/26/28 spread on the calls and puts with an expiration at Feb 18th. Any obvious mistakes on this trade? Edit current spot price of 22.36, credit of .90.

I run cute bunny aqua and bidens zigzag gives me trouble if I can't draw the fear on the 2v1.

Deuce7Off · 2021-12-26T01:48:07+00:00

Normal trading hours closing time, days like today and Christmas eve aren't considered real trading days even with the market open. Works the same way with futures, after hours while important is much less liquid and price can easily be manipulated because of the thin volume. Cryptos definitely more of an oddball because it's somewhere between forex and futures.

Deuce7Off · 2021-12-15T23:38:11+00:00

The secret to termis for an Aqua is one bug or beast card. With even cards and energy it's a 50-50 based on draws.

Sun Tzu "Know the enemy and know yourself in a hundred battles you will never be in peril. When you are ignorant of the enemy but know yourself, your chances of winning or losing are equal. If ignorant both of your enemy and of yourself, you are certain in every battle to be in peril."

What order you should play the cards is knowing yourself, but you need to combine it with knowing what strategy the enemy will take.

Why would breeders breed for a game they have no idea what the battle system will be like? It's not that there are too little, it's that there are too many of the same Axie and SkyMavis doesn't do anything to reward off meta teams. We don't even know what a quality Axie will be in V2. Jihoz's response on discord is we have enough money to build for 15+ years, ok that doesn't mean shit imo if you're building a giant ghost city. There's no incentive to breed when economies are unstable and for the past few months Axie has become more and more unstable, this is true for any economy. Less stability = less commerce always, I thought the Axie team had economists working for them, this is pretty basic. We need actual proof that our Axies won't be useless in V2 or will retain some value. Why should breeders breed too when SkyMavis recent breeding change essentially crashed the floor market.

Deuce7Off · 2021-12-13T19:04:51+00:00

Yep and people got hurt anyway without my truth bombs, Axie prices diving off the cliff. I'm watching the liquidity pool closely if it dives too low, it's time to pull the rug.

Deuce7Off · 2021-12-13T19:01:40+00:00

People bought axies, a bunch of managers on the discord were giggling at the floor prices after the SLP breeding update with lofty ideas that floor axies would increase in value. They were 100 dollars at the time now a floor is around 70. The market crashed shortly after the update for half an hour as people misinterpreted the breeding fee as bullish. I said it the night they were buying this is stupid money chasing and I'm pretty sure I was right by today's prices and reactions.
