What is Medicaid and Medicare? Is it Social Security based care or is it something else? Please give details?Thnx.

All my answers seems to be deleted, with scorecard tampered. Can someone tell me whether they had such experience before, if had what they did about it?

If I expected this kind of a treatement, I wouldn't have joined the Answer community in the first place. I was on the 28% level into 4th level. I made some comments against some wrong answers from some Bigwig from Wharton, MIT and Berkely. So probably the harassment. Is it so that they can get away with anything inspite of their dud heads.

The hedge ratio is change in option price/change in stock price. When d1 of Black and Scholes formula gives this why should it be that it is diercted N(d1) as the hedge ratio?

Kazink and Taranto has given some explanation for my question but both seems to be unsatisfactory. Taranto says delta is not given when I have given delta in my question as del. He also says option price and stock price don't move in tandem he says linear, but Eugene Brigham book on Financial Management and Biermann's book on Financial control treat the matter as linear which I believe is the latest theory. Even though this is hypothetical situation, I have tried with real life IBM options and it produces similar results.

Kazink comes out with the cock and bull explanation about the block sale of 100 in which case let him rephrase my question as 1 block call option of 100 and stocks of 300 in which case the gain from sale of calls is 651 and loss in the stock is 2100 with a net loss of 1449. He said my calculation is wrong, only thing I have done here is raise the written call 3 times which makes it a block sale and hope this satisfies the reality but problem doesn't go away.

Expiry Price =100, Stock price=107, time to expiry=15days, discount rate=0.05, del=0.06

d1=ln 107/100+15/360(0.05+0.06/squrt.2)/0.06.sqirt/15=.072/.232=0.31.

If I have 100 stocks to hedge I sell 31 calls from the above formula for hedge ratio d1 for say $7 price of option today and if price move to $100,

gain from writing call = 31x7 = 217

loss in stock = 7x100= - 700 with a downside loss of $483.

If this is the case then how can d1 be the hedge

ratio if it cannot protect against downside risk. This is te 'in the money' case.

Suppose if the option is 'out of money' similar result happens without any degree of protection for downside risk.

Is the spells cast on one by witches other than traditional ones nuteralisable. It is time consuming and time negating this evil spells. Does everyone has the power to cast evil spells? if so how is it nuetralised. Does this come under Witchcraft? Or is it only traditional witches can cast spells?

How can evil spells be evaded? If spells are part of Witch Craft then is there any remedy for this. Can non traditional witches ie: those who don't belong to any organized pagan group cast spells. If so how can it be nuetralised.?

Some do it through chodes, some through scales. Is there a big picture one can see before starting and work towards it for example if you are a lead guitaritst then you look at the finger pattern of the chodes and do the strikes in the scale, in which case learning chodes first is good and what is the advantage of learning scales in the first place? Is there any good books available for this, if so pleas show the source.

There is a connection between the Micro and the Macro levels. One is constrained by the constancy of the speed of light when thought engines are created to answer special theory. Why is it that one can only work with the constancy of light and why is there so much confusion about this.?
