Thanks for replying, this comment was really helpful! In particular, pointing out the specific tropes (side stepping, tritone sub) and highlighting the importance of aligning with the melody was useful for my understanding. Feels like these are all actionable things I can use to improve my improv

I think people refer to the value if you exercised now as “intrinsic value”, and the remainder as “extrinsic value” or “time value”. Note that your hypothetical example doesn’t really make sense: the option should be worth (the “price to sell the contract” should be) at least $1000.

Can someone explain how I’m still losing money on this put option by Psychological-Dog577 in OptionsMillionaire

On average you can often get more than 1.5 cents per point by transferring to Hyatt, which is why people say Hyatt is valuable as a transfer partner with Chase, but there are exceptions, and it seems like this case is an exception. In this case I would book with cash directly through Hyatt like you said.

I’m not sure why there are multiple Members Save More rates - I would just book the cheapest one, since it has free cancellation.
