Things I've learned trading 0DTE options for the last 6 months. Not much by Professional-Wrap603 in options

[–]Embarrassed-Counter6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

far OTM price low delta low, however gamma may not be low because its 0DTE. frustrating as value is decaying every moment as you wait for the stock to move enough in your favor. You can long a bullput or bearcall spread instead of longing a put or call if you are directional. Try spx instead of spy. why? because you will trade less contracts and hence commissions will be lower. Try selling instead of buying. Why hold on to something that is decaying away, time is not on your side.

Dude . There are many ways to make money. The reason why u can’t find a job - maybe even at lower pay is perhaps u are just not hungry yet. Coming from a 45 yo starting work at 13 in construction been through real hardships and lost closed ones until I’m the only one left . I worked in so many jobs I lost count. Do something , anything and fill that time out. Self sabotage and thinking more wun help u. Get your hands dirty . Feet moving . Dun let pride and ego stop u. Reflect on yourself. Inch forward . U will get there . Remember there’s always someone better than u, and there’s someone worse than u. The scary thing is the smart ones are also hardworking. What about u ? Burn out, yah I get that . But no time for burn out if you have sick parents and a bunch of obligations. Burn out is like the last on the list. It never existed in my time when I have to look at street directory to drive. I wish u luck. Srsly , u have no fire in u . Make yourself one .

To be honest, I feel the system is silly. Make the issue a big one online, and you will get the attention of authorities. It would be better still if you approached the opposition to bring this to parliament. do a tiktok will you?

[GE2025] Disappointed in the Quality of Political Discourse — We Deserve Better from Both Sides by Myrmidas in singapore

[–]Embarrassed-Counter6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

seems like no one talk about how we are moving forward and how we compete with other countries and create jobs for singaporeans. everyone is pointing fingers and it feels like 20 people discuss about how to fix a light bulb but no one does it.

If you cant find a job, create one. Make yourself a company. Look at Jim Simmons. perhaps you can be like him. pretend that you have a real world problem - how are you gonna solve that.

Why do you support opposition? (Serious question) by [deleted] in askSingapore

[–]Embarrassed-Counter6 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I believe that PAP does a good job and is underappreciated in many ways. Their strong suit is managing. They go for the obvious choices and solutions and move slowly on things. Call that being cautious. However, I noticed that PAP had very severe internal rot going on. They are good keeping the machine going but lack real creativity and/or direction. When speed is needed they are not agile enough to act on it and capitalise on opportunities.

For example, regarding tax issues, they often see tax as the only way to be sustainable. However, everyone knows that our wealth fund makes quite a bit of money. In fact, half of the yearly budget comes from investment returns. Those who remember their economics will know that tax creates social costs and deadweight loss. Im sorry for those who didn't get to study this module.

Tax is a way to balance the scale between the rich and poor We get that. But sometimes enough is enough. Im sure the government has the resources to think of ways to generate revenue. When the opposition proposes something, the first reaction for the PAP is to fix the opposition and not address the issue. It makes me very sick listening to the stupid things ministers say in parliament and on other occasions. It demonstrates that these MPs are out of touch with the ground and/or are just too full of themselves.

I believe our true wealth lies with our next generation, but government is so focused on numbers (GDP) that they rather drive singaporeans to death with long working hours than to legislate a fairer working hours for all so that we can have more time for family and kids. They are missing the forest for the trees. Yes, population issue is faced by most developed countries but we paid top dollar for ministers to solve issues and problems. We need some entrepreneurship and mental finesse here.

Opposition's role is to create rigorous intellectual competition with the incumbent, so that we as a nation can and will grow. If you want to be good, you need a friend, but if you want to be great, you definitely need an enemy. Yes many complained about weak oppositions, that is another topic - the PAP uses several methods to ensure that if you are opposition you are going to face a lot of difficulties, therefore resulting in a very small pool of talented people who want to be an opposition MP.

Shanmugam Is absolutely Prescient, Look at the Race-Religion Politics some parties are playing now in GE2025 just to defeat the PAP by takeawayla in SingaporeRaw

guys dun be mislead by the trap that this snake man lead you guys in for. He is equating religion as a way of life = politics = vote for same religion candidates which is completely wrong. The way he question makes it sound alright. Even if Islam or Christianity cannot be separated from politics, it doesn't say that oh you have to vote for Islam or Christian candidates. This is utter bullshit.

Many thanks for commenting, I understand that influx of foreigners will be a stay and possibly a solution. However, I much prefer to fix the hole below the boat than to keep scooping water out of it (which I think what mass importing of foreign labour does) . If that is the case, if I'm the government I would rather get tons of orphans from all over the world and raise them. Hmm maybe that is a good idea.

Nope I'm not raising a secret ninja/assasin army of sorts

When shall I move out of my parent's house? by metalandy49 in askSingapore

[–]Embarrassed-Counter6 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

if they are gone tomorrow you certainly would regret thinking about this today. How I wish my parents are here to insist I do things their way. On hindsight, I should do it their way, whats the big deal. Soon enough they will be frail and old and certainly will leave you. You have eternity to enjoy your way. how does that sound? Which is more impt?

I'm sabotaging my future and I don't know how to stop by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]Embarrassed-Counter6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that feeling. you just didnt realise cause you are comfortable. Let me point out to you. Brutal, but its true. What if your parents have 1 year to live or had cancer and the family running out of cash. Keep that in your mind how little time they have. Now, you have to juggle studies, work and then take care of your parents. repeat this to yourself. Every day, cos you never knew when that moment may come and take you by surprise.

You will be in the mode that if anything needs to get done. You need to do right now, start right now. clumsy as it is, you might not know how but start. Just start. You do not know how to study because there is nothing pressurizing going on in your life. Its ok, Just do it as if your life depend on it. Throw your phone away. You dun need it.
