“Malcolm! Malcolm!”
“Yep! boss!”
When director Gary Grubbs called out to him in a high-pitched voice, Malcolm Jr. hurried over.
Grubbs director’s office with the door wide open.
The office is as simple as the personality of Director Grubbs, and even a pen on the desk is always placed in the same position.
Director Grubbs exclaimed quickly.
“Malcolm! Activate the monster immediately! The target is Share Energy!!”
“yes! Okay. boss.”
Malcolm moved immediately when instructed.
Monster XR-102.
It is a kind of buy-and-sell program.
It is an AI (artificial intelligence) type program that can pick up the stocks that flowed out during the market faster than anyone else, statistically analyze the intraday flow while comparing it with the vast amount of data accumulated from the past, and perform various hedging strategies on its own.
We actively carry out arbitrage-type conversion (selling call options, buying spot and put options) and reversal (selling put options, buying spot and call options) methods.
It is a program with high utility value that produces the highest rate of return in the minimum amount of time. Nevertheless, it was also an incomplete program that was still being updated and mathematically supplemented.
And after a while, as the Monster XR-102 was put into operation, the real stock price window as well as the option order window began to catch fire.
Director Gary Grubbs came to monitor the status of these trading options through his desk monitor, and on the other hand, he opened the thick report in front of him again.
Unpublished report.
This is government data.
In the near future, the US government will support a special program to support large-scale renewable energy development.
A point to note here.
That includes Share Energy Inc as a major supporting company. Beyond the fact of simple inclusion, enormous financial support is provided.
In particular, this special program was a wide-ranging program that aimed to build a low-carbon green infrastructure beyond simple wind and hydropower development, but also paid attention to infrastructure related to electric vehicles and hydrogen electric vehicles.
So, the moment this special program is announced, Share Energy Inc’s share price will inevitably explode.
Of course, it’s still completely private and confidential.
Puck X!
Who are you?
Who knows, suddenly jumped into the hall.
I had no choice but to cleanly erase the strategy I had designed so far, and I ended up sweeping up the volume of call options in the market in a very rough and crude way.
So Grubbs is angry.
Nervousness is just about to explode.
The options market he knows is a terribly sensitive creature. Even if there is a slight change, it is reflected immediately. The range of change is astonishing.
“Steve! rice! Activate the second task immediately!”
Once the stock was secured to a certain extent, Grubbs immediately pointed out several members of the team again.
All of them are talented employees.
“yes! boss!”
“Premium adjustment, stock price adjustment will begin!”
From this point on, the market adjustment work was started to prevent an indiscriminate additional rise. In particular, since they wiped out a large amount of the previous volume, the shock will be transmitted directly to the real stock market.
So, this second operation is a form of first pouring out a false amount of call or put option, then proceeding with immediate purchase and liquidating the position. At the same time, the work continues to lower the premium asking price again.
Real stock prices will also be greatly affected by volatility in the option market. Therefore, it plans to release a large amount of shares of Share Energy Inc held by tax haven paper companies in the market. In doing so, the value of the real stock price will also drop drastically.
Shit! Shit! Shit!
Even so, director Grubbs can’t stand his nerves.
The work I’ve been preparing for by staying up all night for the past few weeks.
that would be a waste
The noble purchases he had planned were simply jumbled up.
Just like that, when Director Grubbs gets nervous and angry.
Hyun-Jun has accumulated a significant amount of strike-price call options.
In fact, as I felt during the previous [EVS Soft] investment in equity options, securing call options is not an easy task.
At that time, from as many as 83 contracts to as little as 33 contracts, we didn’t have as many supplies as we thought.
This market was very encouraging as there were a lot of listings in the early stages that were trying to realize profit through market profit because the call option was dominant.
So, Hyeon-joon focused on buying all at once without paying attention to others.
After paying off the credit loan and purchasing the car, the remaining cash was immediately used for this investment.
And Hyun-joon finally finished his intensive purchase.
Only then did he carefully check the considerable amount of options he had secured.
#
Wow, the number of contracts this time is much higher than last time.
The number of options for each event has also increased.
In particular, compared to the number of [EVS Soft] 347 contracts signed last time, the number of contracts signed has increased to 829 contracts.
So, more excitement.
Have you ever received such an amount?
Before returning, in the stock workshop, Hyun-joon was quite recognized and participated in option investment a few times, but even then, it was just a small amount of option purchase.
Apparently, the stock workshop itself was on the side of hitting the stock price, so the option side with infinite variables was not easily accessible.
In the end, I tried a few times, but the option performance at the time was not good. Although he barely survived in a situation where the principal amount fell to -80%, after that, option investment was completely denied access.
But isn’t the situation completely different now?
Hyeon-jun has a slight smile on his lips.
Soon after, I checked the option volume by strike price in more detail.
#
55 calls (average purchase price of $0.85) with a strike price of $245.00.
34 calls ($0.15 average) with a strike price of $247.50.
68 calls ($0.07 average) with a strike price of $250.00.
76 calls ($0.04 average) with a strike price of $252.50.
22 calls ($0.04 average) with a strike price of $255.00.
66 calls ($0.03 average) with a strike price of $257.50.
105 calls ($0.02 average) with a strike price of $260.00.
36 calls ($0.02 average) with a strike price of $262.50.
100 calls ($0.02 average) with a strike price of $265.00.
55 calls ($0.02 average) with a strike price of $267.50.
33 calls ($0.02 average) with a strike price of $270.00.
103 calls ($0.01 average) with a strike price of $272.50.
76 calls ($0.01 average) with a strike price of $275.00.
In this way, a total of 829 contracts (500 shares per contract) were signed.
Quite a lot.
In fact, intraday options are not something you can buy with money. In particular, equity options often do not come out well because there is a wide variation in market volume for each issue.
In addition, since the option strike price is set higher than the current market price, these call options have a very low premium, so the actual investment cost is also very cheap. Despite absorbing a large amount of money, Hyun-joon only invested about 35,000 dollars in this investment.
As such, Hyun-joon, who had completed the purchase, was now leisurely looking at the current status of option bids and real stock prices.
I can’t figure out the alternative reason.
However, it seemed that a fierce battle was taking place in the current stock market.
#
wow what the hell is this
What the hell is going on?
The stock price of [Share Energy Inc] suddenly fell vertically from $242.6 to $222.56 a while ago.
But for a while,
Again, it rose vertically to $252.35.
In the blink of an eye, the stock price, which had plummeted, hit the starting point again and soared higher, as if an explosive upward propulsion was attached.
And another rising storm that followed.
$252.35
$252.75
$252.98
$253.23
$255.78
$258.99
$264.76
Wow, crazy.
The restless sale bombs were also poured into the market at this time, but the invisible buying force was devouring even the quantity like crazy.
Not long after that, the stock price rose to +11.43% from the previous trading day’s closing price. It was because of the fearsome buying explosion.
And the rise was getting steeper and steeper.
Meanwhile, Hyun-jun’s heart is beating more and more wildly.
If you hit $293.4 soon, how much will your call options be worth?
It was a truly terrifying moment.
