Rolling ITM Covered Call
I sold some 135C, 139C, and 140C NVDA covered calls. NVDA is already well past 135. Instead of letting my shares called away, why wouldn't I just roll the 135C week over week instead of rolling it up? If we ignore earnings the 135C Feb 28 is 9.25 and 135C …
Need some advice- malpractice settlement money
I won a medical malpractice and got about 348k lump sum. My lawyer referred me to his financial advisors and I’ve been with them since Jan of 2023. Since then the account has grown to 407k and I pay the advisors a 1% flat fee. My portfolio is a mix …
Bull Spreads vs Selling Covered Calls
Could someone explain the difference between these two scenarios? My understanding is they both achieve the same outcome of minimizing losses/confirming gains. I fully understand the selling of covered calls - but what about bull spreads? What nuances are there?
Is magic wormhole safe?
I have a silly question about PAKE protocols often lauded here. Magic wormhole uses SPAKE2 algorithm. The passphrase has 16 bits entropy, from which a secure key is derived. The file is available for download for 24 hours in the relay server. Cannot attacker guess that weak password in 24 …
Private Lending options .
Thinking about putting some extra cash to work and came across P2P lending (Upstart, LendingClub, etc.). Seems like a way to earn decent returns by lending to borrowers, but still not sure how it actually plays out. I’m on a work visa and not an accredited investor—anyone in a similar …

Issue with Assigned Vertical Credit Spreads
I opened two vertical credit spreads on TSLA and MSFT, both of which expired on 02/14/2025, and both were assigned on Friday morning. Unfortunately, it was a challenging day for me, as I had to attend a workshop meeting with my boss all day and didn’t have a chance to …
Sale Not Long Violations, does this still occur?
Why would a brokerage execute an order to sell to close a stock position that an account doesn't posses anymore? This seems like an issue with the brokerage executing faulty orders. Or is there a reason why an account holder would want to sell to close a stock position they …
Exit strategy for Options Trade
My friend convinced me to sell my first covered call expiring February 21st and I’m having second thoughts. I bought 100 shares of a stock (intel), I sold a covered call (Sell to Open, Strike: $24, Quantity 1, Order type: market, type: cash). The stock is currently at $23.60 and …
Does placing a limit order at the bid price essentially bypass the bid/ask spread? Or does it just wait until ask price falls to your limit?
I.e. If I buy a stock that has a $99 bid price and a $100 ask price, if I bought it at the market price I'd pay $100, with the brokerage pocketing the $1 difference. If I placed a limit order for $99 though, would the order execute immediately? Or …
