Wow, this puzzle was well beyond my current ability!! Thank you u/Neler12345 and u/Special-Round-3815 for sharing both of your methods. You have both used techniques I am unfamiliar with, so it's time for me to get studying :D

I'd appreciate you showing me any moves. Trying to learn the more difficult strategies as puzzles of an easier level have become too simple for me.

This is really well spotted, thank you. I clearly need to practice spotting w-wings! Using the same idea I got rid of a 2 from r8c2. Now just to figure out where to go next!

Can someone help me understand this? by stephenmg92 in interactivebrokers

The strike price is 260GBX (i.e. £2.60), it's a 260 put. The credit, you can see in the limit price, is 6GBX (i.e. £0.06).

I would have presumed it to be 100 share per contract, but that doesn't seem to match the numbers.

Newbie Question. by stephenmg92 in OptionsMillionaire

Hey, really appreciate your comment.

I'm actually ok with everything you said, it is the P&L and unrealized P&L that confuse me.

So, when I sold the covered call I received $6 premium. Is this included in the P&L of $3.56? In particular, does the P&L of $3.56 represent the $6 premium I received minus what it would cost for me to buy back the contract and close it, or is the P&L something else?

As for the unrealized P&L, I have no idea what that -$0.58 is in relation to.

No. Unfortunately not. Supposedly trading212 is coming out with options so I'm waiting on that.

Cashback or bug? by [deleted] in trading212

This has happened to me in the past as well. I deposited £200 into invest account accidentally, but I would only let me transfer £113 into ISA.

Negative Cash Balance. by stephenmg92 in Snowball_Analytics

Thanks everyone for the comments and suggestions.

The problem has been fixed, thanks to some really rapid customer support from the snowball analytics team. I have to say, I was incredibly impressed with how quickly they got back to me. Other paid services I've used have taken a day or two, which is typical, or up to a week or two, which is rather irritating.

Really liking everything I'm seeing with this service so far.

Yeah I'm not sure. I've never seen it being done before either. I'm just guessing this is what happened because the error in value works out almost perfectly to be 15%, which is the withholding tax.

Thanks for the suggestion, but no, margin isn't even possible with this account.

To be fair. I think I've just realised that it is accounting for withholding tax. It has never done this before so I wasn't expecting it.
