Am I just stupid that options confuse the shit out of me? Is there a site that explains it? The explanations Ive seen already assume you know the terminology so I end still being lost anyway
Here, don't buy any until you understand them fully or you will probably get rekt. Buy 1 share of TMDX to pay me back for spoonfeeding you.

You pay a premium that let's you buy (call) or sell (put) a stock at a specific (strike) price. If you don't execute that option because the the the market went the opposite of what you thought it would. You're simply down the premium payment. If you were to otherwise have purchased all 100 shares of that stock, your loss could be far greater.

Well if the MRO rally keeps up I won't have long to wait till $12 gets here (6.28 now)

I've capitulated and decided to go long now. I'm hoping on the dividend bandwagon. The only thing I'm waiting to liquidate is my $NET; once it moons I will sell it to find a nice divvy stock. Can /smg/ recommend me somes cheapies that also good divvy stocks?
Does anyone know any high yield credit/debt stocks? >10% yield
Luke Collins
it also has a crazy good divvy and is an MLP so fuck it i'll probably just hold it for those divvies
Luis Nelson
T of course. Fat divvy (0.52 x 4), fat yield (7 - 5.2%), low price per share. He'll still be there long after your dead. That's when the fun begins!. Leave your heirs a nasty surprise in your will. (Screw them)

how does it work with futures. is there a strawpoll somewhere that everybody votes on to determine the future price. how does it average everyone vote to determine the number in real time.
Thanks for the rec, but I'm looking for a stock that's about $10 or under.
Chase Carter
Alright so basically you pay a premium to bet that the stock will reach x price by y date. The faster and closer the stock gets to x price (or past it), the more money you make. Potential gains are big, potential loss is only as big as the premium.
The constant bitching and cheerleading in the investing.com comments is fucking hilarious. Makes biz look civil. If those guys were in the same room they would physically attacking each other.

More short pressure. It almost makes me think tomorrow will be green again.

Futures are just options trading but without the market being open to validate any form of accuracy. They might react to news post-market and such

How do I get a job shilling on social media? I’m dead serious, I can do 12hrs a day on social media.

VIX doesn't mean red. It just means big moves in either direction. Huge donkey dick green candles for the rest of the week.
Jace Kelly
I wish, I sold my small position at 700. Congrats, my man.

too many people do it for free for it to be profitable

the vix going down = stocks violently moving up. the vix going up = stocks violently moving down

Yah, I know. Im gonna keep getting losses until I do eventually start making money. Ayyyup This will happen
Jace Walker
So you don't have to hit the EXACT value listed on the contract if you don't think your call is EXACTLY right? (I mean, how the fuck often can someone accurately call an exact price at an exact time?)
Thank you that actually is a very simple explanation. What would happen if, say, a stock was currently at $10, but I thought that next month it will hit $15? Lets assume that I magically knew the future, and I KNEW it would hit 15. What would be the best thing for me to do in this situation to make the maximum amount of money with options?
Owen Myers
it is a contract to purchase shares at price X if the shares are more expensive than price X, you buy them for price X and you can sell them for >X, that's your profit (after subtracting what you paid for the contract). if its below X, the call expires worthless
if I'm somehow wrong, correct me. However the VIX index actively goes down when stocks are going up and vis versa. the VIX's derivative ETFs are fun to gamble on.
Lucas Butler
$ET is already in my position, retard. Look at my post again.
SO what does USO rolling over it's expiring contracts mean for tankers? What does them leaving June 2020 contracts completely for later in the year mean too?
Robert Morris
>people shilling for free. Wasted resources and time. People are dumb, at least get paid.
Kevin Ortiz
why don't you read the definition of the VIX, or its formula?
