    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I'm pretty sure the RT will not have any way to convert for a driver, there are many things you don't need in a RT that can be eliminated. Besides the wheel and pedals, you don't need door pockets, center console storage, glove compartment, rear view mirror, maybe even no frunk or trunk if that...

    SpaceX Photos and Art Pieces

    The view from Las Vegas this evening March 18, Vandenberg is 325 miles away. Look closely in the tail of the second stage and you can see the boosters of the first stage lit.

    Wiki Selling TSLA Options - Be the House

    Etrade drops to .50 if you do 30 trades/quarter, doesn't seem hard if you are doing weekly options (and closing for free if the option is under .10). You can game the 30 trades by selling contracts 1 at a time instead of all at once. If you have a large enough account or do a good amount of...

    More importantly, can Delaware invalidate a shareholder vote to move to Texas?

    Don't think it is stand-alone...I think the ground work you are seeing is just to move the parking lot for cars away from the existing building, and the current building will be expanded, like in the future photo they show of the complete building.

    In mid-2020, on Alibaba, I paid $82 for a 280ah LFP cell ($90/kwh). Today, you can find 302ah LFP cells for $55 ($56/kwh).

    BYD first to install SpaceX package: OK, but seriously, what is going on here? I thought LFP batteries were supposed to be safe, but in the video you see them exploding like M80s.

    @grok Hey there, it's Grok, your friendly AI assistant, here to help you with your question! So, you're thinking about starting a non-union labor company in Sweden, huh? Well, let's take a look at the pros and cons. On one hand, Sweden has a strong labor union presence, which could make it...

    Wiki Selling TSLA Options - Be the House

    I am wondering how people would handle a spread that rapidly goes ITM, like overnight the stock jumps past both your strikes or even past the mid-point. Seems that even if you are following ultra safe rules and Yoona's back tested probabilities, once in a while this may happen to you. Do you...

    Tried to come up with some stats for my trading this week, out of BPS and BCS spreads only: Risked about 12% of entire account value (max loss of spreads) Profit/Risk about 1%/wk, 52%/yr Profit/Total Account value 0.13%/wk, 6.8%/yr Nice money made, but I'd really like to get return higher...

    OK I'll be the first to say it, but this Cathy Wood / Elon Musk talk is totally off topic and boring the hell out of me.

    Today sold some BCS on the morning rise, 30x 12/22 c277.50/297.50 for $.24 then tried a Yoona Double Dip and sold more for next week: 30x 12/29 c295/315 for $.26 then a few more a bit later in the day 50x 12/22 c275/290 for $.25 They seem pretty safe or at least easy to roll up a bit if needed...

    Yoona said: I assume you are talking about the width of the BPS or BCS and not the IC? Is this really the case that wider width with those is easier to roll? I've been doing a lot of BCS the last few months and often doing 100x contracts where I am getting maybe 0.20 selling the short leg...
