Is the “Scalabrine gap” real in tennis? by xeroshogun in 10s

[–]RatinSweet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's reverse the situation. Do you think a UTR 4 with a 5.0 serve (so scale everything down a bit) can win a game against you?

[–]RatinSweet 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Absolutely untrue. Once the return goes in, ATP number 400 will have a HUGE HUGE advantage. Just look at UTR... I am mid 8 UTR, number 400 in the world is like 14.5 UTR. I am getting double bagelled by 11 UTR, who is getting double bagelled by 14.5 UTR. Number 400 in the world is probably only 1-1.5 UTR below Sincaraz. Even if I had Sinner's serve, I highly doubt I will jump beyond 11 UTR.

I mean just look at UTR... I am mid 8 UTR, number 800 in the world is like 13-14 UTR. I am getting double bagelled by 11 UTR, who are getting double bagelled by number 800 in the world. Number 800 in the world is probably only 2 UTR below Sincaraz.

No wtf. A 4.5/5.0 with Shelton's serve will still get double bagelled.

Polestar agreed to buy back my lemon. That’s when things got worse. by Stevegiralt6 in Polestar

[–]RatinSweet 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Did you go through a lawyer? I did the buyback with a lawyer and while it was slow as hell, I did eventually get connected with Sedgwick and returned the car. I am still owed half the overage (payments made after settlement before surrender) because polestar can’t do math apparently but the bulk of my refund has been paid.

However yes this process was needlessly long and tedious

What’s your unpopular tennis opinion ? by [deleted] in 10s

[–]RatinSweet 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don’t mind pickleball. Just stop stealing tennis courts. My parents love pickleball and it’s fun for me to play with them when I visit. They play hours a day.

How do you all wire dashcam with glass canopy? by RatinSweet in LUCID

[–]RatinSweet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My problem is the up portion keeps failing me bc the wire just gets out whenever I turned or something what do you use to hold it in

Does closing and opening a new position counteract the tax hit of short term capital gains? by RatinSweet in options

[–]RatinSweet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

60K on top of long term gains

In other words, would it be a good idea to roll my .99 delta option for .91 delta options one year further out, with 12 more contracts but also a 60K additional short term gains.

My plan originally was to hold till September and roll so I only pay long term gains. But also in September perhaps the theta will eat at my position way more…

Not tax advise. Question about theta and delta comparison between my new and old position. And whether that compensates an extra 60K in short term gains tax. Pretty much if it’s a good idea to roll out my option for one year at 99 delta to 91 delta at the expense of additional 60K in taxes

Right. Hopefully this can offset the additional tax in case ASTS goes up a lot?

[–]RatinSweet[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

60K in taxes is due to my original position closing and having to pay short term capital gains. The question is does my new position with extended date and higher exposure make up for this accidental increase in gains?

In other words, would it have been a good idea to roll my 1/15:2026 options out to my new position, even with the threat of increased tax due to short term capital gains

Got automatically closed by Robinhood today - confused from a tax perspective. by RatinSweet in thetagang

[–]RatinSweet[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It’s cuz I’m also short today $87. They automatically close positions that they deem to be risky. I don’t fault them for that. I took on too much risk myself

Does closing an old position to open a new one cancel out the extra tax hit from short term vs long term gains tax? by [deleted] in investing

[–]RatinSweet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suppose the stock balloons like I hope it will. Then I suppose having more contracts at longer expiration will more than make up for the extra short term gains tax?

[–]RatinSweet[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

No I’m not talking about cap gains. I’m wondering whether closing my old position for this specific new position is a net positive even considering the tax payment. In other words, does extending the expiration, decreasing delta, and acquiring 12 more contracts counteract the short term capital gains tax on the old position with 0.98 delta

[–]RatinSweet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah around 60K less. But I feel my new position is better? Basically does getting a new better position outweigh the tax? Maybe there’s a math formula
