one of the easier puts reload. think i'm done for the day... 6860p BTO 2.8 avg STC 7.4 avg i think i should have went with 6870p as they would have been an "easier" hold
OP wanted to buy another debit spread and entered the order correctly (BTO/STO). The platform changed the STO leg to STC and the order was filled. If the platform had functioned correctly and rejected the order, OP would have picked a different strike. Wouldn’t you?
f the order originates from the option chain, TOS will auto-fill a two-legged order as an opening order with STO/BTO, but I could manually change the order type for each leg. If the order originates from the position, then TOS will treat it as a closing order and auto-fill with BTC/STC.
OP's order was to BTO 190 and STO 210 but he already is long the 210 - he can only STC the 210. TOS will reject the order but the rejection pop up is short-lived and the ticket remains open. If the order is re-submitted, TOS will auto-correct the STO to a STC. (Note the AUTO in the trade ticket means auto-correct.)
Your first trade is BTO 210 and STO 230. Your second trade is BTO 190 and STC 210 (you thought it was STO). Your second trade closes the 210 so there is a realized loss. This is real. Sorry. Review your order before submitting.
It's never enough. In any case, I don't own the stocks, just options. So BTO, then STC when profit is at least 100%. Rinse and repeat until the music stops.
Fucking irrelevant. They already have deals with Verizon, AT&T, Vodafone, STC Group (Saudi Arabia), and Vi (India). All they have to do is complete the launches and it's gonna rain money from the sky.
Nope! RDDT drilled further… In the lower portion of the confidence band for the previous technical analysis. However, 170 just does not seem like a realistic strike for tomorrow. STC RDDT 2/6 170c @6.23; 9.93 -> 6.23; 33% loss BTO RDDT 2/6 160c @10.36

So if the price did not go down 74.50, would you have to keep the 20 shares at that price? I am new to options. Also, is this a STO or STC put?
You STC for 30.2 K, your cash must increase by 30.2 K after settlement - no less and no more. Your realized gain should be equal to proceeds minus cost - no less and no more. It should be the same at any broker.
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. STC the LEAPS and BTO an August 21, 2026 OTM call.
Two options before you leave for work: STC or roll out to Tuesday.

I’m long ASTS and agree that the current valuation is completely irrational. I don’t see what the fuss is about Golden Dome contracts anyway. They are already have had major contractor status for a while and this is something within their wheelhouse, so I expect they will be awarded something. On the other hand, the announcement from STC which actually promised recurring revenue once they have core operations up and running barely moved the needle. The stuff that gets people excited makes no sense to me, so I also make some small trades as we go.
When you STC (sell to close) your long silver options, you will neither pay additional nor receive premium. Profit or loss will be determined by the option’s value in relation to what you paid for it when you BTO (buy to open).
It's pure speculation. True. But my guess has nothing to do with oil. It is a realigning of the entire ME for the better. Don't want to get into the weeds (it will be fascinating to watch it unfold, though) but almost EVERYONE in the ME fking hates Iran. They are obligated to spend $100s of Billions on weapons just to keep them in-check (Their own Cold War). Iraq/Iran war 1980-1988: Killed 1mil/Wounded \~2 million - Out of 65 million people (Equivalent to 5 million Americans dead) SA -generally #1 buyer of US weapons for the past 20 years - to keep Iran/Houthis out. UAE - Supports the STC who actively fight the Houthis Jordan - Actively helps us shoot down missiles targeting Israel and fly sorties from their borders. Kurds - want them all dead Israel - Duh and most of the other counties not listed just keep it business-casual for trading purposes.

Hey brother, I just want to let you know you're not alone down there in that deep dark hole. I'm up top here and I can see you down there. I'm gonna shine some light down on some places where you can put your hands and feet. So you can climb and get out of that hole. This is not guaranteed but this is what I would do if I needed to climb out of that hole. If i had that $200, I'd do this. For $QQQ if you buy one $2.xx at the money call option for Monday expiration. You can usually catch a nice gap-up of 2 to 3 points over the weekend from Friday close. Then be ready with a MARKET order STC, Sell To Close and sell within the first 60 seconds of the opening bell. You need to be ready and not distracted and you can lose lots of gaines in seconds with the volatility. Make sure you are watching the minute candle sticks chat on another screen, once opening bell rings, wait for green to end and wait for the first red candle and look away, press sell and make profit. You can look this pattern up by asking Chad. GPT for the Friday, close to the Monday, opening and Monday, opening intraday, high. Or you can just go to finance thought. yahoo.com and look up the historical charts with the date range. And you can see for yourself. Do that and then save the money. And then repeat the next week. And you should be able to buy double, but just be ready to sell right away or be ready to wait for each time zone pop in case you need to preserve capital. Because there was no gap up over the weekend. I'm not guaranteeing anything here. But this is a plan that I use and I'm 70% successful most of the time. DM me for receipts if you need them. The only reason I'm not successful with other times is usually because I'm greedy and I don't take profit right away or they're no gap up or recovery through-out the 390 candles I stare at all day. I hope this helps you climb out of that dark hole. ***I wouldn't do it this Friday to Monday (I am but im dumb). Since the last few "first trading day after CES" is usually not that great of an odd of a gap up. At least for the last few years if you look at historical charts. But usually every other Friday to Monday cycle like described above has good odds but nothing is guaranteed.

I BTO/STC options as day trades. Things I'd say that will stand you in good stead and will scale: At $1k you'll have to play a very specific game: Buy into momentum so you cover your fees at least. Wait for the dip, get in there, that's support, and from the moment you open a position get ready to sell it. It's predatory out there right now. Literally be ready to do a limit sell at your current price if it stalls before you hit 15-20%. Making 20% per trade accumulates fast, and the old days of every trade running 100%+ are long gone. If you make it to 20% and your trade is running but looks like it's going higher, stick a market stop in at say 20%, then track your trade and get ready to limit sell as it starts to slow. If you have more than one contract consider selling one at 20% profit so you've already banked some profit if it turns. If it's running and you're comfortable then let it run. You'll already know that once it stalls then premiums can deflate fast. You can take yourself out of the loop a little if watching for an exit point fries you by moving that stop up as the price rises. The big one with $1k: Don't take a loss, don't let it go negative. I see so many 'strategies' where people buy and sit there with contracts going -30% and more, on the notion that it'll turn around. Sometimes it does. Equally often these days it doesn't. The 20% market stop plus slippage should get you out positive or flat at worst. This market has been tired of late (tho they just turned the QE tap back on) and even though the macro trend is up the micro trend intraday isn't always, often quite the opposite. $1k means you don't have the luxury of enough capital to wait and find out. Once your trade goes negative you're a passenger. -10% comes up fast, and you don't get many goes at that. So better to get out without taking a loss and wait for the next opportunity than to hold into deep red on a hope. Finally...There's always another trade. Wait and be selective with what you pick. Good luck.

If Starlink had 9000 coke cans in orbit would you still be arguing about the importance of quantity? Their current satellites are apples to oranges different from what ASTS is launching. Eventually SpaceX will be able to redesign their entire satellite fleet and launch 10,000 V3s and fly them and extremely low orbit to compete with ASTS, but right now they are behind the technical curve. From a launch side of things, ASTS is about to have several providers to choose from. Blue origin, SpaceX, India, Neutron (Rklb). Costs to launch will come down and the beauty of ASTS is that they don’t need that many launches, and because of their altitude they have a longer life span. If you know anything about diminishing signal strengths you will understand why having a massive surface area in orbit beats 9000 tiny surface area objects. It doesn’t matter how many you have, you simply don’t have the power capacity to amplify a signal to the strength needed to reach your stupid little phone in your pocket with very much data. ASTS should not be compared with American MNO companies. They are a global supplier of connectivity. Where ATT is limited to its 140M subscribers or something, ASTS will have access to billions of people and many billions of devices. They are partnered with ATT and Verizon, Rakuten, Vodafone, vodafone idea, STC, and the list goes on and is growing. Their revenue share model makes them an extremely attractive candidate to work with for mobile network operators, whereas SpaceX seems to eventually want to compete directly as its own MNO. In my opinion that is a poor business model.
don’t focus too hard on revenue until commercial service has been live. Market caps for MNOs are not apples to apples comparable because the margins and expenditures are vastly different. ASTS is aiming for +90% margins. Starlink has 9000 satellites but last I checked they had about 600 satellites for d2c market, the rest are fixed broadband. They have public signed commercial agreements with 4 major MNOs now (STC, VZ, ATT, and Vodafone) but this is just the beginning, they have MOUs with 40+ other MNOs internationally. Doesn’t include government contracts either. Anyways, to answer your question no if it does reach “perfection”, 31B is extremely low valuation.

He's talking about RAM, not storage solutions. SNDK is up because SSD and HDD prices also went up due to AI, STC and WDC also went up 300% ytd at its ath too. Which is hilarious because SNDK's only product benefitting from this is selling their cheap and shitty SSDs to business clients, yet it still propelled their sales numbers like crazy Also you're not the first person I see mentioning SNDK when memory is talked about, y'all retards got lucky picking the wrong company from a different sector but still printed because it's adjacent.

> im also skeptical no one is buying at mid level, If the bid/ask is 0.15/4.20, only insane degens would trade at the mid. There is absolutely no rule that says the mid ought to be a popular price at every spread width. It's only when the spread is narrow that the mid rises in popularity. If the spread is 0.15/0.25 on a nickel increment contract, *the only choice of price that isn't the bid or ask is the mid*. Ergo, narrow spreads force more trades to be at or near the mid. > or that mid level is becoming ask by the time i click go, every time This is a requirement of the NBBO. If you are buying to open, your mid limit is now the best bid. If you are selling to close, your mid offer is now the best offer. What's far more interesting is to see what the *rest* of the order book does. Usually, market makers will join your new price. Say, before you entered your order, the full spread was BIDx20 0.15/ASKx80 0.45. You put in your STC at 0.30. For a fraction of the second, the spread will change to BIDx20 0.15/ASKx1 0.30. Then the MM algorithms will join your price, so it might look like this: BIDx20 0.15/ASKx81 0.30. Some or all of those old 0.45 stub orders will be revised to be at the same price as your order.
copy - I see the chain now. here's what happened: T1. You BTO (12) @ 31.85 \> Debit: $38,220 (this comes out of your cash and sweep, no change to net liq) T1b. STC for 29.30 \> Credit: $35,160 \> Net PnL = $35,160 - $38,220 = -$3,060 (your net liq decreased by this amount - your cash and sweep will have financed the loss) T2. BTO (12) @ 23.6 \> Debit. $28,320 In total, you realized a loss of $3060 and have an open trade right now that you paid a debit of $28,320. You need to close this new trade for at least 26.15 in order to break even (this is to cover the -$3,060 realized loss).
STC 12 @ $29.30 BTO 12 @ $23.60 Total balance decreased from $40,900 and change to $40,770 now $40,342 because GLD dipped at the end. CB on the new contracts is $28,327 and cash increased by $6,824 and the available to trade is the full cash balance of $12,382. I think where I am confused is when I saw a credit I assumed I was realizing a $2,900 loss, being credited $6824 and was expecting to see a total balance of $44,824 reflecting the difference.
can you give me the line by line trades? \- BTO (12) 361C @ X.XX \- STC @ X.XX \- BTO (XX) @ X.XX
Nope… despite a broad-based rally across markets, SMCI just seems stuck below 35. STC 40c smci 12/12 35.5c @0.44; 0.63 -> 0.44; 30% loss

First of all can you disclose what data provider you are using so we know you're not a bot ? Secondly, options flow will not always show if the trade is BTO, BTC, STO or STC. I'm looking at barchart and I don't see an option flow of that magnitude for KSS unless its a darkpool.

STC last RDDT 227.5c @2.25; 3x1.37 -> 2x4.78 + 2.25; 4.11 -> 11.81; 187% profit. 🥳 Still actually lost a little due to paper handing the 225calls earlier this week but at least I made back most of it on this play.

> basically I do a BTO operation and then a STC Operation but if that contract expires before i STC I have to fulfill what the contract says? Almost entirely right. The BTO and STC part is 100% correct. The "contract expires" part is only partially correct. You forgot the "expires ITM" requirement. Only contracts that expire ITM will be exercised-by-exception. If the underlying is exactly the strike price ($100 strike vs. $100.00 share price) or lower, it is OTM and will expire worthless. An exercise-by-exception means an exercise that is **done on your behalf without you explicitly asking for it**, as a favor to you. If an expiring ITM contract was *not* exercised-by-exception, you'd lose the entire value of the contract. Nobody wants that to happen by accident! So exercise-by-exception is a safety-net that protects that value of **ITM** contracts at expiration. > Or is it just optional? Let’s say I don’t want the excercised-by-exception even if it is in the money or I just don’t have the money to buy the 100 shares, do I still have to buy the 100 shares by obligation if I previously did a BTO? To be clear, your decision to exercise is always optional. However, exercise-by-exception is always mandatory, UNLESS you file a "Do Not Exercise" request to prevent exercise-by-exception from happening. So it's mandatory unless you opt-out, which you should basically never do. Instead of filing a DNE, just STC on or before expiration day. That's much easier and makes much more sense. If you file a DNE, you lose all the value of the contract. Some aggressively paranoid brokers (Robinhood) won't even allow your ITM call to expire. If they see you don't have the cash to pay for exercise-by-exception, they will do the STC for you without waiting for you to do it yourself.
