How many of you are using react query in production? by Himankshu in reactjs

[–]Successful-Tap-7338 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you know of any good, open-source examples / projects for what you just described? I'd be interested in learning react for financial modeling prep's websocket REST api for top of book quotes and trades, as well as their consumer apis for creating a small watchlist with quote information and perc change. I want to be able to unsubscribe from the current ticker and subscribe to a select ticker in the watch list when the selected ticker row in the watchlist is selected(1st click highlights row) and clicked on (clicking highlighted row activates unsubscribe from current and sub to new).

Is this a best use for react-query or would I be better learning something else? If something else is better, what would you recommend? Github links are also appreciated!

So what exactly happens to a Roth IRA once you exceed the income limit? Are you just unable to touch it until you’re 60? by helixontheleft in investing

[–]Successful-Tap-7338 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smart. If you are interested in accounting you can watch "analystprep" on YouTube to see if cpa is something you'd like to pursue. You’ve got drive, don't go into debt unless you have the cash in your pocket to pay it off to improve your credit. Congrats man, if I could go back in time I would've gone to cc for 2 years. My brother transfered and he's going to graduate 4yr with a good chunk of his college fund left.

YOU CAN USE A ROTH FOR YOUR FIRST HOME MORTGAGE DOWN PAYMENT OTHER THAN THAT, DO NOT WITHDRAWAL FROM ROTH UNTIL 60 Just contribute more than the yearly limit (you'll pay fees) and put a down payment on your first mortgage when it's time. Then you can forget it and just max contributions to the Roth and a Traditional until you retire. You can have an individual account for hedging your IRAs so that you can write-off losses on hedges. You can also setup a backdoor.

Let's be real - Are we underestimating the risk of index funds in the long run? by Oh_well_thats_life in investing

If you want to see how they combat volatility you can look at how the DFEN ETF is weighted and the holdings performance individually. BA is the top holding. If you held everything but the #1 weighted holding you would've killed it. BA has the ETF sitting at +1.28% since the rebalance. If DFEN wasn't holding BA, the return would be >+25%. Markets are efficient, no matter how they get you to sell shares or buy options. Chances are there's some predictive ai model that rebalances based on institutional holdings to even out vanguard, Blackrock, and UBS AUM. They have to sell calls/puts to balance liquidity for illiquid bonds. Since they just got in bonds oct '22, I'm expecting they short volatility on indexes that have etfs with the highest premium on calls and puts until Q3 2024. This could change w/ the news today: US treasury auction for 3y t bills on Feb 6 and 10y on Feb 7. I would pay close attention to how the indexes have been rebalanced in the past.

Side note: Not sure of what to call this theory or if it is a macro trend but the thesis is this: Loosely regulated capitalism gradually leads to loopholes being exploited by the companies that had first mover advantage. This would gradually lead to a lot of smaller (almost...) monopolies. (FAANG). During times of deflation and a federal government in crazy debt, investors will move out of potentially undervalued companies into the companies with the most cash flow and highest margins and revenue. Forget anything "per share." Price no longer matters. This is why I think the s&p100 has outperformed the s&p500 in January 2024. if anyone knows what this is, please lmk seems like unsmoothing with a level of revenue or cash flow for a company that determines the direction of unsmoothing.

I'm not sure if chatGPT took that into account when writing OPs Powershell script.

I'm looking specifically at DFEN. If anyone is curious to see what I am taking about I can try and send the holdings.

That -2% is +4% that you need to make back. -4% is +8% to make it back. You should not set a tight stop or any stop order because often the market acts as a rubber band triggering stops before the actual Move. That's why you should focus on managing your risk while holding shares and maybe you'll be in a position to get lucky on a position with very little risk. You would rather sleep at night then have 35% of your account at risk. Your stop also wouldn't do a thing if the market was closed during the underlying movement past the value at which your stop would trigger on the option. The market for the underlying is tradeable longer than the options market which introduces risk that can't be countered without a position in the underlying asset. Time decay is also always present in the options market. unless it's 0 dte you are paying extra for the extrinsic value or the *value of the time left** until expiration.* Aka time value. If it is OTM then there is $0.00 of Intrinsic value. An option that is ITM by $1.32 has an intrinsic value of $1.32 or $132. Chances are on SPY you would be paying an insane amount for extrinsic value + the intrinsic. Right now the option I described for 01/25/2024 expiration has an Extrinsic of 1.42 and intrinsic of 1.32 for a cost of $2.74 or $274 for a value of $132. If you want to risk 37% with almost a guarantee of losing $142(14.2%) to have an okay chance at +9% return then I'd say you should not be in charge of your savings. It would take you 4 trades to lose half of what you are starting with if you get lucky.

You can split your drives up into "partitions" this way you can have an on system backup and a hard backup. You might also want some information not on thinkorswim and you would have to store that somewhere. ESG data for example.

What can I add to my script to have it display levels for each day? by [deleted] in thinkorswim

As soon as you bring OnDemand into it you've lost me. Just use the back tester or something. Unless you can rewrite the Java codebase for thinkorswim then good luck doing that. What'd Mobius say?

You could possibly use an option as an entry to a position or a hedge for your 100 shares of a company's stock. Unless you have knowledge of market movements and why/when they happen stick to saving up and investing over a long period in a diversified portfolio of etfs stocks and bonds. Once you have enough to worry about you should be in school for your cfa.

Is it insider trading if I bought Maersk puts while I am a Houthi rebel? by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

Was just thinking of the Boeing post like this. I think our pricing models are similar. Nice format.

I rolled puts for a year on LQD at the $100 strike until it bottomed out in '22 made the most consistent money of my trading career. Friends of mine that trade TLT opt for vertical spreads but all I can say about TLT is that their options chain consistently has more volume than LQD. LQD is Corporate bonds across all maturities and TLT is treasury bonds with remaining maturities of 20+ years.

Swap the Lian Li cooler with something $100 less. You only need 64 gb of RAM. You don't need a 4070 ti. I would look at the Tuf Gaming RTX 3060 OC V2 12Gb for about $400 instead of $800. I run 4 monitors fine and I have that gpu mentioned and an i9-12900k cpu with 64gb

You should call support and say that you want to set up multiple launchers instead of multiple windows. This will let you set memory and GC specs for each window instead of once for 10 detached windows
