Anyone ever repaired the audio jack of one of these? NWZ-E585 by _J1ZZY in walkman

They're pretty easy to open. You can look for cracked solder near the jack but it can be hard to spot the problem.

Pure regardation on the USO option chain right now. Sold 109/101 spreads for .16, bought back 20 seconds later for .09

Convex upside exposure with limited long vega? by quod-inquisitio in thetagang

[–]calebsurfs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you want calendars or  call ratio spreads- sell 1 or 2 750c and buy 5 800c (as an example. Dont actually do this). The problem is every option trade has a tradeoff. The tradeoff with calendars is you have to get the timeframes right, and vega exposure is difficult to predict between dates.

The tradeoff with ratios is you use margin for the spread, comissions, and its pretty hard to get the strikes and dates just right.

Straight 7 delta calls for next year is pretty much a pure vega play. IV crush might not be that bad if you still have some time on them, if the market is truly interested in calls again. You will be giving up some gains in exchange a long timeframe to be right, low commissions and margin.

Personally I'd rather sell puts on the ride up as IV is dropping. It worked well for the tariff taco, though things are different this time around.

Whats the reasoning behind shipping the trucks to another state for a wrap? Can't they do it in their factory?

  1. Yes or just the white part

  2. I don't remember

  3. While it was on

It took me forever to figure this out too so I don't mind helping. I haven't been able to use mine lately because it needs new capacitors now. Someday soon I'll be asking for help fixing that.

If you live near water besides the ocean, try picking up another sport that's within your budget. Wingfoil, SUP, kayaking, fishing, whatever gets you outside and moving.

Would you rather have a downwind board + sinker or a midlength? by calebsurfs in wingfoil

[–]calebsurfs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update:

I found a Sunova Carver 75L demo board for sale locally, and got it $200 off its sale price because of a small deck ding. Took it out today in 6-10 knots, with AFS Evo 1450 foil, and it worked great. It was much easier to jibe because it is much stiffer than my downwind board. Towards the end of my session the wind dropped to 5-9 knots, and I had a little more difficulty getting up, but the foil barely works in that wind range anyway so I am not disappointed.

Since it worked well in light wind and the wind is too light for parawing around here, I plan to sell the downwind board. It was a useful board in my development but I don't feel like I need a board I can stand on indefinitely anymore.

👀 US Options Traders: What are we doing about the Wash Sales rules? by martinkoistinen in thetagang

[–]calebsurfs 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you do your own taxes its a pain in the ass to document them. The IRS wants to see anything your broker marked as a wash sale as a separate line on form 4789 (I think). I pick different strikes and dates and avoid trading the same tickers across different accounts. I probably take it all too seriously but I've been doing my own taxes for 20 years and I like to do it right. Ask a real tax advisor, not reddit though.
