    Martin, I have been trying to treat option as a margin tool, that's one reason I am trading option rather than the underlying equity. I thought if I can timing good, option should maximum the profit with limited risk. I had briefly studied option greeks and B-S modal, but I am not sure how to...

    OTM ATM ITM option at expiration

    Sorry for one more question: for naked long call option, is it better to write it(sell the call) at least 2 month ahead of expiration so it could have some decent extrinsic value as well assuming it has gone from OTM to ITM at the time? If this is true, say if I see the underlying equity will...

    OTM ATM ITM option at expiration

    Martin, thanks for the reply. So this mean unless the underlying equity rise the price to $120 @ expiration, in which case, the intrinsic value of option120-100 = $20, then this is a breakeven trade. Otherwise , this is a losing trade regardless ?

    dcraig, Thanks for your consolation. For Ehlers freebees, I found IFisher could be quite useful in higher timeframe in my limited study of them.

    Build an adaptive oscillator (macci) with good measurement of dominant market cycle

    Hi Guys, It's been quiet in TT for quite a while, I am wondering if people here have got much advanced strategy than multiple time frame analysis with static macci (5,6)? After I spent some time study John Ehlers's public indicators in his MESA website, I started wondering if an adaptive...
