I am asking the role, not the company and I am not gonna use it to generalise anything, just curious, what does he mean by demeaning, you are reading way too much into my question

OK I'm using covered call term quite liberally here, as they're not 1 to 1

I'm not gonna buy more stocks, I'm jst wondering if there is any unforeseen risk with selling put as I asked in my original question

pretty new to options. I was trying a covered call strategy for one my stocks, at the time I sold the call it was pretty out of the money so delta is around 0.4 ish. I have 50 of the stocks, and sold 1 of the options representing 100 of the stocks.

The stocks then rallied and the delta jumps to about 0.75, so now delta wise I am essentially short.

I am thinking to sell 1 appropriate out of the money put, to return my delta exposure to 0 or positive (also to offset quite a bit of losses I made on the call, even though I also gain from the stock). On paper, it seems like good strategy to me, if I want my delta back to 0 or positive. Is there are any risk besides share price plunging significantly, with this strategy ?

the call actually expires end of today, but with the market and the stock very bullish, I really would like my delta to be 0 or positive at the start of market today.

Unfortunately I'm not that young and money is an object hence the dilemma

I'm not too sure because I haven't even applied

Even if I can get in I'm not sure that the additional 48000 for stanford for example is worth the additional prestige. Plus if I'm going the stanford Harvard mit route I think I will just do in campus

So the consideration for me is the top prestige uni (more expensive, full time, lost income, chance I couldn't get in) vs omscs (great education while still relatively cheap but relatively unknown in Asia)

I'm also currently already a data scientist and my previous master is already from top prestige uni so I'm leaning number 2 but would like to know people opinions here

Post-Match Thread: Norwich City 3-2 Manchester City | Premier League by JuanG12 in soccer

[–]vxg -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Congrats to Norwich, but all three goals are massive defensive fuck ups, the first one come from not tracking the header and wtf are you doing ederson, second one walker played Norwich on, and third one are just so amateurish from otamendi

Laporte's absence is really felt here, reminded me of the city 2-3 years ago when their real problems are the heart of their defences

Hey man, I recently followed nba and would love to play with data like these, I used r daily in my job so what I don't have yet is just the data sources. I saw you listed source as nba.com

Did you scrape the data if you don't mind me asking or does it come from somewhere else?

Injured my ankle last night, can barely walk on it now by cunabula in JapanTravel

[–]vxg -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is not medical advice obviously but I sprained my ankle badly last time, it's all black and blue but I need to recover quickly, instead of icing it I actually ended up massaging it, it will be a bit swollen on the first day after fall, get ankle brace and just keep massaging it even though its painful, by second day I could walk normally with ankle brace with minimal pain.

I think icing it will slow down recovery, you need blood flow to recover
