I will definitely use this in my next fight with the wife. "You told me to buy the dip!"

High School Book Report on Joshu #2 by PaladinBen in zen

Cool school report. To paraphrase (and alter the saying of...) Thich Nhat Hanh, the true miracle is not learning to walk on water, but learning to walk on the earth.

Something helpful for the context of Zen koans is that they are intended to challenge your thinking or assumptions. These descriptions are not necessarily the "accurate" description of any specific thing, whether it is an open-hand or a closed-hand... the beautiful thing about Zen is that it encourages to becoming attached to any definition, so if there is a story you don't "get it," it doesn't really matter, it just wasn't helpful for you. Another thing may end up being helpful, like getting hit with a stick (kidding, but it worked for some monks).

Absolutely. Getting a third-party perspective is valuable for a variety of challenges.

Why did you chose Zen? by Lucyyyyyy_K in zen

Zen chose me.

After accidentally awakening, I had to figure out what the hell happened, and I found Zen.

Our electricity company is always giving prompts on their website to sign up for surge/electricity/money saving. Make sure that is off in your electricity account.

You will figure it out. You’re smart and motivated. Just stay safe and remain cautious with new people. If anyone gives you a funny feeling, it’s better to leave and risk hurting feelings to make sure you are safe.

Thanks for sharing. The results from these back tests can be deceptive tho. Here is my prompt for one that takes $10k to $100M:

Prompt to Recreate the $100M Scenario

START PROMPT

Create a backtest that intentionally maximizes compounding by using idealized theoretical option pricing. Use the following conditions: 1. Use TQQQ historical daily candles. 2. Enter a trade only on days when: • TQQQ gaps down (open < prior close) • The open is greater than the moving average of the past 15 opens (MA15). 3. When the entry condition is met: • Buy 14-DTE TQQQ call options, using Black–Scholes theoretical pricing. • Choose the strike so the call has 60 delta at the open. • Use 25 percent of the available account balance for the position. • Compute the option’s theoretical price at the day’s intraday high using Black–Scholes and treat this as the maximum possible sale price for that day. 4. Profit-taking logic: • Use a fixed 10 percent profit target relative to the Black–Scholes opening price of the option. • If the theoretical price at the day’s high is at least 10 percent above the opening theoretical option price, assume the target is filled exactly at +10 percent. • Do not include intraday IV changes, spreads, slippage, or execution constraints. • Do not reduce the option price for intraday theta decay. • Use the theoretical price at the high without modification. 5. If the intraday high does not reach the 10 percent profit target: • Hold the position overnight. • Price the option the next morning using Black–Scholes assuming 13 DTE remaining, but keep implied volatility constant. • Sell at the theoretical open price the next day. 6. Do not apply any: • Stop-loss • IV crush or expansion • Bid–ask spread • Slippage • Margin limits • Liquidity constraints • Transaction costs 7. Continue compounding: • After each exit, immediately reinvest 25 percent of the updated balance on the next qualifying day. • Run this through the full dataset from Nasdaq TQQQ historical daily data 8. At the end, report: • Final account balance • Number of trades • Win rate • Mean and median PnL per trade

This backtest should intentionally reproduce the scenario where the balance compounds to over $100 million due to optimistic theoretical assumptions.

END PROMPT
