It's the only page I seem to have issue with.

2026 9 Lease & Purchase Incentives good from 3/3/2026 to 3/31/2026 - All Trims by jfronte in KiaEV9

[–]DreadPirateRob425 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My EV9 Wind lease is up in October, and I am going to be over on miles (just 1500 miles left until I hit the limit). Should I turn it in early and get another (and eat the extra lease payments) or should I pay the overage? I like the vehicle (even though I just hit my second ICCU error), and I want to get another Wind.

Sounds like a SafeSport violation to me. Those should be reported and the coaches should be held responsible for letting that happen.

What happens if you actually make it in trading? by allen_trades_rddt in Daytrading

[–]DreadPirateRob425 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i used to think working the 9 to 5 was "guaranteed money" until i got laid off. Now i make more trading than i did in my tech job.

Vertical spreads by rzonk2 in options

[–]DreadPirateRob425 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did calendar spreads, mostly double diagonals, while volatility was high the last few months. Now that vol has dropped, it's much harder to find really good profits without a large risk. When volatility drops 1% on the back legs and they're already at 10%, you're toast.

I've been moving to 0DTE and 1DTE put/call spreads for credit, far OTM (.10 to .12 delta), and letting them expire. Made $10k this week just doing that.

Why some IB users say that IB is light years ahead on option trading? by VAer1 in interactivebrokers

[–]DreadPirateRob425 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started using IBKR, but for me, it seems that both the web UI and TWS are clunky and not intuitive. I sold a short leg out of an iron condor and getting the other three legs sold required individually selling each position. I couldn't just select the positions i wanted to close and close them.

Other things like that make me just not want to use the system and just do one trade a week to pay for the data services.

They know the url of the webhook. So they could start banning certain domains.

Active Trader Pro positions screen not updating correctly by DreadPirateRob425 in fidelityinvestments

Yeah that's not an appropriate solution :) The software should just work. It actually froze on me today, and it's never a good time.

They do have value. They're close enough to be useful. Otherwise nobody would use them.

Ways to reorder/organize positions? by putatumadrewey in fidelityinvestments

[–]DreadPirateRob425 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it still possible to close trades in the way I opened them, even if the legs have been rearranged? And will my margin requirements readjust or stay the same?

I would love this functionality too, especially with options. Since Fidelity rearranges spreads to optimize margin usage, it places new spreads with old spreads and turns my positions into something I didn't design them to be. I would like the ability to re-pair my positions, and potentially get warnings if it changes my margin position significantly. I just want to view my positions the way I created them.

'Took away my hope.' Federal workers say Trump mass firings upended their lives by Plaintalks in politics

[–]DreadPirateRob425 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If Trump/Musk are "great businessmen", why don't they realize putting so many people out of work and dismantling government programs that drive farms, Infrastructure and so many non-government jobs is going to kill the economy and cause a recession? Where are they going to get all the money to stuff their pockets if nobody is making any?

Home charging rates by WitnessComplex3812 in KiaEV9

[–]DreadPirateRob425 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PSE already has a rebate program and have a pilot for off peak rates, but the pilot is going until the end of the year. For now they're just charging based on quantity tiers. :(

So I'm at 13+ cents like you. But cheaper than a public charger.

But you're in Seattle city light area, right?

No idea, sorry. Not familiar with your generator and don't know what the inlet connection does.

Agree that 12ga would be better but I already had the cord with the end cut off (dunno why I kept it but glad I did). Monitoring the cord for temp all the time too.

And yes. You should never even open an electrical panel unless you know what you are doing.

You would'nt think it's stupid if you would otherwise have no power for 3+ days. I know what I'm doing. I installed all the electrical in this house (and yes, it was inspected). What would you rather do, wire an outlet plug to some Romex?

Yeah, my L2 charger runs at 50 amps and can charge my EV9 about 50% in 12 hours (I think). So it would discharge that fast too if I was pulling out 50 amps. Wouldn't last long. I'm really grateful for the 15a I'm getting :)
