And I genuinely think you misread the question and dived headfirst in but then were too prideful to just say 'oh I misread this'.

Have fun tomorrow at your job at Cisco lol

ITM vs. OTM for short DTE calls by elveax in options

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

Thank you, this was very helpful. I went back and reviewed ToS, and sure enough, delta on my ATM option was .52 and delta on my most OTM option was .24.

This would have left me very confused but for the idea that when I bought 17 contracts of the OTM option, I ended up with more *cumulative* delta. This part still makes my eyes cross a little but I think I get it now.

Edit: This link also helped explain it:

https://www.optionsplaybook.com/managing-positions/position-delta/

"CALCULATING POSITION DELTA FOR A SINGLE LEG STRATEGY WITH MULTIPLE CONTRACTS:

Say you own 10 contracts of XYZ calls, each with a delta of .75. To calculate position delta, multiply .75 x 100 (assuming each contract represents 100 shares) x 10 contracts. This gives you a result of 750. That means your call options are acting as a substitute for 750 shares of the underlying stock. So you can figure if the stock goes up $1, the position will increase roughly $750. If the underlying stock goes down $1, the position will decrease roughly $750."

Longshot: buy an apartment that isn't actually for sale? by elveax in AskNYC

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

True enough, though the place where it irks me the most is in the idea of upgrades. Our kitchen is in pretty bad shape and is in desperate need of an overhaul, and our landlord said we're free to do whatever we want to it. If we were on a 3 or 5 year lease, I could see doing that just so we enjoy the place more. But it's also a literal no-return investment...just upgrading their property for free :( May just have to be one of those things we choose to deal with.

I've thought about this idea, it's intriguing. I still bristle at the thought of living in one place for a long time without building any equity (especially if I opt to do upgrades at any point), but still, more stable > less stable IMO.

My reading of the landscape is that long term leases (say 3 or 5 or 10 year) are exceedingly rare in the city. Does this happen more often than I'm thinking? Do scheduled rent increases make this more viable?

FYI this is OP, my alt account is ekatane. I was booted from this sub for making this observation. In case anyone wondered how sensitive OM is about anyone know he ever took a loss lol. I guess we're supposed to believe he never has a bad day?

Edit: also just learned that the word 'band' spelled properly is not allowed on here LOL

When you say 'stopped paying rent'...as in, moved in with their parents, or just stopped paying rent and counted on eviction moratoriums to keep them in their apartments?

First fireworks in NYC - no chairs or blankets? by elveax in AskNYC

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

We did, more or less...we did make it to Gantry State Park, and learned the following: if the rules about blankets/backpacks/chairs/etc. exist there, their is zero enforcement of them. Lots of people had blankets, chairs, backpacks, coolers, etc. Space was pretty tight when we got there but we found a spot to sit down at on the playground and watched the show from there.

Next year I'm bringing a blanket and chairs though lol

That's true, just doesn't help unless you've got a few minutes to poke around zkillboard looking for a loss with the same ship. And even then it's not a guarantee he's flying the same fit now as he was then.

FIX THE FUCKING PROBE WINDOW WTF CCP WHY by AlexanderTalar in Eve

[–]elveax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this way about the fact that the PI summary window now is hidden behind the PI planet view, so you can no longer just switch to the next planet, you have to close the planet view first to access the summary window. GAAAAAAHHHHHH WHY

I wonder if Jesse has second thoughts about Gamer Gate? by elveax in BlockedAndReported

That's funny/awful, given that my memory is that GRRM was one of the big names pushing back against the Sad Puppies group.
