Hello all. To remain anonymous, I will not mention my name. I am very passionate about options trading and would consider myself fairly knowledgeable. I am 100% self studied.
As this is a very niche topic, I find not many people in my social circle know about the “Greeks” let alone options in general.
Anyone here who has decent knowledge about options, greeks etc. wanna just kick it and talk options/derivatives?
Feel free to drop a comment or dm!

RIP your inbox.
You can look forward to DMs along the lines of “Hi, I’m new to options. Can u teach me how to trade them?”
Sometimes I wish I had a friend who was into this shit.
I need someone to partake in my daily losses with me 🤣
How are Zeus and hera doing?
Are looking for talk or tech as well? I am not expert just basic. But keen to learn what you want to share or talk about?
I am currently at kind of a crossroads. I’ve been DCAing VOO as a long play (CB ~$500 so far buying corrections), bought a INTC LEAPS (expiry 12/26), and have been selling ~.3 delta CSPs on NVDA successfully so far making modest but decent gains. I want to take a moderately risky position in hopes of cashing out in 1 to 3 years ideally, and have been weighing a couple possibilities. One is selling a ATM shorter expiry CSP on NVDA to hopefully get assigned and long, potentially selling CCs to reduce my cost basis over time. The other I’ve been considering is buying a SPY LEAPS, which is in some ways riskier due to the time constraint but also more diversified than mainly longing one stock. What do you think?
Bet. I am so down. I trade futures, options, forex, and stock for a living and it’s literally just me and a discord server 90% of the time
Bot or not? This reads phishy af to me.
Why on earth would you get downvoted? I love your honest request.
I hope you make some new friends from this OP!
I don’t want to talk but just sharing my learnings. I have been playing selling spreads on SPX 0dte but Iam not playing a theta game. I play directional trades with 10 points profit or loss which works out to 40% on a 5 wide spread. I am slowly focusing on riding gamma as all I need is ONE good 1 minute candle to achieve the same profit. Once my risk tolerance increases I will increase my wing width to 10 points. I also did iron condors, fly,butterflies etc but now settling for something simpler but not easy, the Gamma. Right or wrong I get in quick and get out.
sooner or later you’ll realize that all the knowledge you gained about options geeks is ‘useless’ once you get high on ‘futures trading’. It’s only a matter of time! its a natural progression.
Naw
I need insider information, not a friend.
