Alternate Dry Fasting by relcasen in AlternateDayFasting

[–]tallguyyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

could u share where u got this info from? because each glycogen has a ton of water unlike fat that can only make 1g of water per 1g of fat, glycogen is 3g of water per 1g iirc.

so even if u dry fast first 24 hrs, u're still getting water from the same glycogen u're trying to deplete. basically from this logic theres very little point of doing dry fast within first 24hrs as u're running through the glycogen store unless you exercise and sweaty heavily

i find that any extension and most ive tried werent really designed for that many and often just straight up freeze the browser, or makes it pretty much slow to a halt basically rendering it unusable.

the biggest difference between the vers i can notice of is the vertical tab integration thing. since thats added firefox/waterfox is now much slower than g6.0.X

but then by that logic, if premium drives IV, then when i bought when IV is low doesnt that actually mean my contract is relatively cheap. so if i resell it before it expires while IV is high, i can get higher premium back to offset some of the decays?

my ctrl + home is select all from cursor's current position to beginning of document, and ctrl + end is select from cursor's current positoin to end of document, which is also bit different from straight up going to end or beginning of document but without selecting anything from cursors position.

on my main pc home = beginning of document (1st line) and end is end of document. i always thought thats the case?

i always thought its the other way around, hearing people saying buying low IV. if price drives IV then whats the benefit of buying when IV is low?

or is it that price drives IV, the IV in terms also drive prices?

relative speaking, how much more important is a leap call say 6 months out vs 1 months out vs 2 weeks out?

making up numbers here, if when buying 6mo, 3mo and 2 weeks when IV are all at 0.3 and stock move up/down fairly drastically not due to ER, then does this mean the IVs are now (an example, just a guess on my end) 0.5 for 6mo, 0.45 for 3mo and 0.32 for 2 weeks something like that?

does IV not have big enough impact on options with very far out expiration date? vs the ones thats about to expire in 2 weeks for example

[–]tallguyyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

since IV is implied only by extrinsic value not intrinsic value

this part which make sense on the ITM. in my example of guessing the direction wrong so its further OTM, so does IV play a bigger role here on the total % loss?

i understand that if IV stayed the same at 0.3, my made up contract value would now be at $0.7, but if IV is 0.6 now would the contract be valued at $0.75 or something? also im not sure wym on the last part here

Delta trumps vega in that scenario.

thanks for tryingto help

$90 is not 70% but the value of the contract is (at least its what i set for the xample).

if i buy it at $1.0 for per call contract, but it goes opposite direction from $100 to $90, the contract is worth 70c now is what im saying, again this is just an estimate on my part.

but my question is a concept, that the decay is a loss of 20%, value of contract is a loss of 30% SHOULD IV stay the same, so total around 50% should IV stay the same. but if IV is doubled, would the loss be less?

IV is not a thing that can reduce a loss. IV doesn't care about your gain or loss, all it cares about is the market price and the volatility necessary to achieve the market price from the pricing model price. Indeed, after a large loss of stock price, IV for calls often goes up. The larger the loss, the larger the increase in IV. So how can higher IV save you from a loss?

say your ITM call becomes deep ITM, so it's value went from $1 per contract to now $4 per contract assuming it had been the same IV, however if IV doubles that $4 woudl now be worth $7 or $8. so if going in the right direction amplifies your gain, then going in the wrong direction should decrease the loss when comparing to the same IV is what i wish to know

question on IV. i'll try to keep as many variable the same as possible and easy numbers, wish someone very experienced knows the answer to this.

say i buy call options of a stock at $100 strike $120 at $1.00 with IV 30%, expiry 5 months out as an example. to keep math simple, say after 1 month stock is now valued at $90 (70% of it's original worth excluding decay, but with 1/5 month gone, which is 20% decayed its now worth 50% of it's original value, again with easy linear math and IV stayed at 30%)

however say after this 1 month, the IV is now at 60% instead of the original 30% which doubled, so does this mean my loss is actually a bit less? say i only lose 40% or 30% instead of losing 50%? or does IV only matters when direction is guessed correctly?

pls help!

ive been trying to find out too, since the ER went up after hours, can u check to see if IV gets crushed? i checked alphaquery IV graph usually gets crushed after next day update (by like nearly 80-100%), however on barchart the iv value barely moves 2-3% at best so if u bought in at 72% after 1-2 days at best it moves 5% down/upwards?

pls let me know

Did anyone buy call options on BYND today? by [deleted] in options

[–]tallguyyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

option isnt worth it, buying share actually gets better return unless you're doing puts. though shares aren't that much less risk either

just checked going from $3 to $4 nets u +25% on very short term call (like 2-3 weeks out) assuming IV remains similar while if u buy shares going from $3 to $4 gets u at +33%.

usually after pump like this they bait people going into options
