Mine is to figure out what the heck all these abbreviations and short hand means. I keep seeing .56 on GILD and I'm baffled because I see nothing that looks like that.

My 2021 resolution is to play a little bit bigger on each trade.

What are your thought on possible GILD buyout? Does today strengthen those thoughts?

I would pull before 203

For BTC followers do you expect any sort of pullback? I just have some money that is going to be paid to me in Bitcoin. No hurry to be paid. Should I wait or just do it now?

Feel free to try to snipe a dip but I don't see people getting out significantly for now. Don't ask me about two weeks from now bit I think you're okay to go. Damn thing could be 33k by Monday.

Start probing around 192ish. If it feels like your sticking it through butter or peanut butter than it's done.

I am not usually one to tell another man what to do with his meat, but I do agree here. Better to pull it out too early than too late.

This is just fantastic advice. For many arenas.

Here. I'm just trying to unlock the language before unlocking my bank account.
if you are using mobile only I would open a think or swim account with TD Ameritrade. It is much more simple to view. I will also "simulate" a trade then execute it in fidelity where my money is sitting.third coast.. said:
Well I'm doing everything on mobile for the most part so I can't really look at 2 things at once. Now that I have a basic understanding of covered calls and selling puts, I am trying to watch the trades talked about but a lot of times I cant figure out what date is being talked about, and like bulldog said sometimes it is hard to decipher what price everyone is referring to. I recently got my fidelity account approved for basic options but the layout is miserable to navigate imo so really its just trying to piece it all together. I'll be quarantined in a hotel for the next two weeks and I was hoping to sit down and try and focus a lot more during that time. Then everyone is talking about call spreads, for instance you mentioned a vertical and also selling puts and buying calls, which no matter what would be above my pay grade right now, but I'd still like to understand the principle of the action.
My fidelity account won't let me sell any puts though and I wanted to give that a whirl on a stock I wouldn't mind buying, so I'll have to sort that out over the phone anyways.
Tldr - just trying to put the puzzle together.
the option price is more volatile on a percentage basis. The price moves based on the delta, and how quickly that delta changes is based on the gamma. You should be trading options out 2 weeks to 30 days so that minute to minute changes in the ticker don't affect much.third coast.. said:
I get that. I was under the impression that a lot of the option proces are much more volatile than the stock price so if you are unable to execute a trade quickly then you end up missing a lot of upside.
