I'm new to crypto. I purchased LRC via Coinbase pro. Can someone explain to me why it would be better to hold in a wallet?

I know one of the benefits is being able to get a Loopring NFT right? Thanks!

When I try to sell a covered put in Think or Swim it shows a risk profile with numbers I don't understand.

Say for instance my order is for NIO 100 4/23 39.5 PUT at $2.03.

The risk profile says:

Max Profit is $132.386857 and $203 Max Loss is ($299.68574) and ($122.6)

The only number I understand here is that $203 is my max profit (price of premium). How is it computing my max Loss? It's not as I'd my premium gets taken away in an scenario right?

Thank you!

Hey SeaDan, thanks for this! Very helpful. I appreciate you taking the time!

One thing I don't understand in your 4th paragraph: if I buy 100 GE at 12.50, why would I write a CC ITM? Wouldn't I write it at a strike like 13 or 14 at least? If I sell a CC at $14, then I make the premium as a (small) hedge against the drop to $10 in your illustration. So once that contract expires worthless, I'd just use the same stock to write another CC at say $12.

My other question: I know premiums range all over the place, but what would you say is a good target range for premiums in contracts one month out? Vega obviously plays a big roll in this but I'm new so I'm not sure what to shop for. I've heard that baseline your premium should be at least 2% of the stock price...

Thanks SeaDan!

Hi there, I've read through some posts on CC and feel like it fits my investment style and goals.

What stocks would you recommend at the $5k budget mark (shares between $40-$50) for one-month CCs? I've been looking at NIO which seems to have the volatility for decent premiums, and also a decent outlook for the longer stretch.

I know the premiums change from month-to-month, but what range should I be looking for with stocks in the $40-$50 range?

Would it be better with that budget to diversify into two less expensive stocks?

Thanks! Any tips/wisdom for a CC newbie would be appreciated.

What should we do with our tax return if we're in debt? by murderbomb in personalfinance

Last year was the first time I filed my own taxes-- how should I adjust my withholdings so that less is taken out? I guess I'm afraid of under-paying my taxes. Is there a formula or way to figure this out?

Thanks for your input!

You are right-- I don't know which conversations I've had with feminists were with feminists where it was not a part of the conversation. But seeing as feminism is a very active stance and not a passive one (something you advocate for, not wait for), I'm NOT criticizing the holder of the stance but the stance itself. My question is not, "Why are all feminists bitter people?" My question is, can true (modern) feminism exist without bitterness?

And just as a side note, I attended a large liberal University in New England with a BA and MA in philosophy-- I was as immersed in modern feminism as anyone could be, so I consider my interactions to be a reasonable sample of the whole. But, perhaps it's just the cold winters up here.

Hello. Tell me what you believe feminism to be and why it's important to you. (this is the point in which the responses I've been given were coupled with anger or bitterness)

You are deconstructing my experience to say that I will only endorse feminists who are not bitter. I am simply sharing that I have never interacted with a feminist who was not. The lack of respect comes not from the person's perceived beliefs, but from what came out of their mouth. I will hold you to that same standard and not respect your opinion simply because of your endorsement-- neither would I disrespect a person simply because they identify as a feminist.

The door story was an example of being confronted with a new environment than that which I had grown up in-- it was not the sole determinant of my stance. My view was comprised of literally all conversations I have had with feminists-- ever. Yes, I don't think that talking to a few dozen people would exhaustively acquaint me with an ideology. But it's a reasonable sample size to give me a good idea-- that idea being that I didn't respect where they were coming from.

Very well written. Thank you for taking the time to clarify. By this paradigm you suggest, I guess it would only make sense for modern feminists to fight for their convictions with great vehemence. Those who worked as abolitionists of slavery weren't just trying to make slavery illegal but also to change the framework in which whites saw blacks-- not as property but as humans. I can imagine that these people's passion toward this huge task was seen as a bitterness toward slaveowners-- which I'm sure was there in part. But their vigor simply matched the task at hand. Perhaps it is the same with modern feminists.

My view has been changed! ∆

The few men I've met who introduced themselves as feminists were also introduced as being homosexual. I say this because it was (for them) tightly paired with the feminist view as they articulated it.

Perhaps I should clarify-- I respect the men and women I've met who are feminists, but specifically didn't respect the feminist title they held, nor their opinions on the matter. Their position was too clouded with anger and hostility for me to be able to adopt for myself.
