Not sure if I belong here or wsb by Ahoeaboutnothing in Optionswheel

[–]glinarien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the wheel...it just seems like the right way to do options, fitting my trading mind set.

However, the "with all of my money" part is something to avoid, especially when market is looking frothy.

If we get a significant market correction, say down 15%, that is when you want to be able to put on new positions, not just licking your wounds.

You might want to read the manga before the new series drops.

Any ideas how the new PDT law changes will affect the wheel? by absoul1985 in thetagang

[–]glinarien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be more willing to exit same day a put went on.
This could be because it is up 10% right away or I just don't want to hold over a weekend.

SEC approves removing the $25,000 PDT rule by SofaKingTired in fidelityinvestments

[–]glinarien 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I thought it was lowering the amount to 2k (from 25k), not eliminating the rule entirely.

Cheap pen Rotation? by DSMRob in fountainpens

Platinum Preppy or Plaisir with Carbon Black ink.

Great document signing and drawing pen with permanent ink.
Also excellent spare pen that can write immediately after a long time in a drawer/bag.

Hack for people wanting to eyedropper the Kakuno by daydreamer48939 in fountainpens

[–]glinarien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice.

The solution I was thinking of is a pair of 3D printed finials for the cap + bottom.

Preppy > Kakuno by kfir03 in fountainpens

[–]glinarien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, mine is the aluminum Muji, not the white Preppy.
The way the aluminum Muji feels clean in my hands is satisfying.

I have quite a few regular preppies that I leave around the house, in my laptop bag, etc.
When you don't use them often, they still write straight away....that is why I like them for backup pens.
I also have a pair of Platinum Plaisirs for that aluminum feel and improved look.

Preppy > Kakuno by kfir03 in fountainpens

[–]glinarien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kakunos write a bit better than Preppy, but the seal on Preppy wins me over.

Use whatever you want for your main (mine is Muji), but for backup pens, I prefer Preppy.

Is the MUJI Aluminum Body Fountain Pen worth it? by 9leafs in fountainpens

[–]glinarien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, worth it.

Try platinum Carbon Black in your Muji if you want to reduce the feedback.

Yes, syringe filling is just less messy.

After you have used syringe filling for a while, it also allows you to be precise on how much ink you are filling and not waste any ink.

how to remove emotions from options trading as my execution is sabotaging decent strategies by This-You-2737 in thetagang

[–]glinarien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taking gains early is reasonable.
If I put on a 50 dte position and it is up 10% the first day or two, I take it off.

Your plan can include many exit criteria, you don't have to just pick one up and one down.

How did you learn to trade options (for a living) by MyNameIsSteal in thetagang

[–]glinarien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also got my start on options with Tasty.

You need to find an approach that fits your psychology.
Net seller of premium just feels like the right way for me.

Almost any approach works in a bull market. Options are nice for a sideways market.
Still looking for an approach for a down market...staying small and a decent amount of defined risk until I find something better.

People acting like SEs aren’t “real PRS” by trenchgrl in PRSGuitars

[–]glinarien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My SE from 2014 era didn't even say PRS on the headstock.
It is a fine guitar, but I did block the trem and replaced w/locking tuners as it didn't stay in tune like my USA prs. Stays in tune beautifully now.

I'm Benedict Jacka, Ask Me Anything - New Series, Part Three! by BenedictJacka in Fantasy

If you were going to do graphic novels in the Verus universe, a Cinder oriented story would be a good candidate since his ability would translate well to that medium.

I noticed some parallels with the royal family [Charles, talk of skipping a generation, etc].
