first, learn the system
second, understand the system
then come back and say again if it's rigged once you understand it and make money both ways.
2000cs is right, options is a derivative, there is a math behind it. the premium he is talking about is what i mentioned earlier, the IV. The higher the IV, the more premium you pay. that's why when you look at the stable stocks like apple, google, their IV is in high 20s to low 30s, then watch IV for GME, AMC, it's in 100+%, tesla is in 60+%
just stick with buying stocks if you don't understand it, plain and simple
or if you want to make money in stock market, be like Elon Musk, invent something, work it, and sell your share and let these 'rigged' investors drive up the share value. 
elon is rich because of these rigged investors, right?  |
I think it’s stupid you can hit the strike price and not be in the money. That doesn’t make sense to me and never will.
I appreciate the articles you’ve shared. By the way, this is the first one I’ve lost money on and I’m only dabbling.
So is it rigged? That’s not the right word but there should be a transparent way to see all of the technicals you’ve laid out so one can make an informed decision. I called Merrill edge earlier and their traders are worthless
