{quote} This will always be regarded as so very clever. Clever girl. Good job. Very impressed with your creativity. {quote} Now that you reminded me... yes. Yes, I will. Thanks! {quote} That's not how you say "dumb fucks who are just a blight on the forum, and world, and who I have no desire to read their ignorance". But, you used letters that made words, so give yourself a pat on the back. I know it was probably a struggle for you. {quote} Classic.
{quote} For example, if Morty buys 100 shares of Stock plc (STOCK) at $10 per share, he might hedge his investment by taking out a $5 American put option with a strike price of $8 expiring in one year. This option gives Morty the right to sell 100 shares of STOCK for $8 any time in the next year. If a year later STOCK is trading at $12, Morty will not exercise the option and will be out $5; he's unlikely to fret, however,...
{quote} & if your referring on brokers cost I do get rebate on every trade either positive or negative & with more advance hedging method you win both ways the position and the rebates. {image}
{quote} Oh well gee you got me, so you must be right. Oanda having a similarly shitty platform negates everything.
{quote} You are just creating a narrative to fit your viewpoint. It's not based in reality until such time as you can show that players like Goldman EVEN KNOW WHAT A NEDGE IS to start with, AND Even more importantly, CAN CREATE SUCH AN OBSCENE NON-POSITION in the first place. Do you really think they use MT4? Come on now. Come back to reality.
{quote} As for pro's being restricted... FUCK. If you had followed any of this, and every single other thread like it, you'd know there IS NO RESTRICTION.
{quote} BECAUSE OPPOSITE TRADES GET YOU OUT OF A POSITION. That you don't understand this is amazing. Let's just imagine this for a moment with some fat fuck on a yacht ...
{quote} I can assure you that there is at least one more platform offering nedging that is not MT4 (Oanda V20, which is what I use on my retail account. So your statement about MT4 being special in that regard is certainly incorrect.
....... ouch......h
{quote} //----- hey k...... v20 is just the term oanda gave for their 20th anniversary api trade engine...... our v20 metatrader accounts are still using metatrader 4..... to have opposing trades here in the states we must have separate accounts..... until last year when lenar, known as fat here on ff, changed his mind, mt5 did not allow hedging..... it now does......
{quote}So how do you know then when it's time to close one side? And if you know the levels/point(s), you can just trade it with simple net positions.
{quote} Listen man, I understand. But to me, its still a wash. In your above example, once you go flat, you are essentially working a buy stop and a sell stop for a half of car, waiting for a breakout. Again, that's how I see it...
Fine mate. In real terms I suppose but personally I would never actually use a buy or sell stop. My risk is removed long before those areas, so if it breaks fine, if not, no issue either as already been paid. I don't have fresh risk at the break points.
