This strategy is initially set up to profit no matter what the market winds up doing. If the stock or index being used immediately goes up or down, a gain should be realized either way. Then, using the gamma scalping adjustment technique, the trader can lock in those gains, capturing the profit, and then immediately ‘re set’ the trade to once again make a profit no matter what the stock or index being used winds up doing.

When gamma scalping – the trader doesn’t care which way the market will be heading. The trade is set up to profit either way. Up or down – its all good. And the bigger the moves, the better.

Then, when a move has occurred and a profit has been realized in the position, using an easy to follow set of rules, the trader can perform an adjustment that immediately lock in that profit while setting up the position to profit again no matter what the underlying winds up doing. And this can be done over and over again – continually scalping profits out of the trade.

How many times have you purchased a stock or option and wound up actually being right and seeing some profits – only to have the underlying immediately turn around and retreat back to it’s starting position wiping out all the profits?

Trading this way takes so much stress out of trading – and actually makes it quite enjoyable. Gamma scalping allows one to not have to be right about direction and still have the ability to be very profitable. Wether the market heads up or falls down – we don’t care. Either way we can make money.

For option income traders who are struggling in these especially volatile times trying to use the standard income trades like condors, credit spreads, and calendars, Gamma Trading is a good method to learn and consider using and adding to their collection of other option strategies.

And last but not least – it’s a really fun way to trade as well.

Gamma Scalping: Surfing Volatility For Steady Profits is a post from: Reachings

For example, RFID tags are in most office identity tags and in a few passports, allowing the holder to pass through security quickly while keeping the building or the country safe.

They are a modern version of the bar code. Remember before bar codes and bar code readers? When a shop assistant had to key prices into the cash register, correct errors and look up prices that they could not remember? People do not have any time for that anymore.

It is OK at the newsagents, but picture a teenager typing in your two trolleys of weekly shopping at the superstore every Saturday. You would still be there on Sunday! Supermarkets have thousands of articles and dozens of special offers – no-one could remember that lot.

No-one could, but bar codes make it straightforward and so do RFID tags. Bar codes work well, but they have to be seen to be read. RFID tags send out their information on a unique frequency which can be read out of line of sight. In other words, an RFID scanner does not need to be able to see the tag to read it.

The scanner can read what is in your trolley without you having to empty it and as you pass by that scanner and pay for your goods, they are deducted from stock straight away so that the warehouse manger can see what people are buying and what nobody wants to buy. So, if one brand of cat food is selling better than another, the manager will see that on the computer print-out and buy more of that brand, thus keeping more people happy.

This use of RFID in stock control or asset management to give it its more official title, can translate itself into other uses too. An RFID tag can be put under your cat’s fur or in its collar so that you can locate him if he gets lost. The police and the wardens scan stray animals for a tag as part of their routine these days. Consevationists have been doing this with wild elephants, big cats and other endangered animals for years. Now you can have it done with your pets as well.

Company cars, as assets of the business, often have RFID tags and you can have one put in your car to aid recovery if it is stolen. Baggage handlers at airports or bus terminals can (and do) use them to prevent mislaying luggage.

The US government requires RFID tags be placed on all vehicles carrying explosives or hazardous substances and have done for almost ten years. The US military is in fact the biggest user of these tags in the world. RFID tags are used to track military assets such as armaments, battle tanks, fuel, containers, guns, you name it.

Some people worry about RFID technology. Where is the line between their convenience and their personal information? For example, they do not like getting junk emails from people that have been able to track the purchases they made with their credit cards.

Owen Jones, the author of this piece writes on several topics, but is currently involved with the RFID asset tracking. If you would like to know more, please go to our website at Active RFID Management.
