chapter 27
Ghost number 01

Meanwhile at that time.
Gary Grubbs, Director of [Golden Invesco MRC Fund].
He was scratching his forehead and frowning.
The frowning eyes and wrinkled forehead show no sign of loosening at all.
[Share Energy Inc] It was good to have secured a certain amount of call options, but another problem occurred in the middle.
A paper company in a tax haven, in the name of this company, poured all shares of [Share Energy Inc] into the market, and at the same time attempted a sharp drop in stock price.
And when the actual sale bomb fell on the market, the stock price slid like crazy and showed a vertical drop from $242.6 to $222.56.
But immediately a problem arose.
Damn the opposite reaction.
As the stock price went down in the form of a vertical fall, the fearsome buying momentum soared out of nowhere.
A reaction quite different from what I expected for fear to prevail.
What kind of kid are you!
At the same time as the so-called vertical fall, the vertical rise in stock prices followed immediately. The stock price was recovering rapidly, as if the vertical drop earlier was misunderstood as a simple mistake. Rather, the stock price rose further and was shooting up to $ 252.35 in an instant.
I couldn’t help but pour out more of the remaining stock, but nevertheless, the madly burning stock price finally failed to calm it down.
“Puck X! Puck X!”
As the operation twisted, Director Grubbs, who was monitoring the trend on the monitor, immediately called some staff and started a countermeasure meeting in a hurry.
Still, the stock price is already on fire.
Currently, there is a steady upward trend taking place, so evolution itself seems difficult now.
“Do you know what kind of Puck X he is?”
When Grubbs exclaimed nervously, Malcolm Jr., a Jew and the manager of the individual stock options part of the [Golden Invesco MRC Fund], looked at Grubbs with his characteristic sharp eyes and thought for a moment. But I can’t tell who the opponent is.
An option order book that only comes and goes with numbers.
Who is active there and who is operating the operation is practically invisible. I can’t even hear someone’s voice. I only guessed through the trend of the trend of the favor and the trend of the graph, and I only have a feeling.
“Boss, um… I’m not sure, but I think… maybe [Maurizio Alpha Fund] attacked us.”
“Maurizio Alpha?”
“yes. Haven’t you been interfering with our affairs lately? It is highly likely that the earlier vertical upward trend was also the work of the retarded [Maurizio Alpha Fund]. Isn’t that Latin cubs always worked messy? I think maybe the information from [Share Energy Inc] went that way as well, and I think they immediately got their hands on it while preparing the target.”
In other words, if the insufficient quantity is absorbed even in that way, the problem of quantity shortage can be solved immediately.
But at that point, a sudden collapse occurred.
[Maurizio Alpha Fund], which had been waiting for a lot, did not miss the timing and carried out an explosive buying operation.
In fact, the operation seems to have been quite successful.
Because it was able to absorb a huge amount.
On the other hand, [Golden Invesco MRC Fund] suffered severe damage.
The quantity is robbed according to the quantity.
It’s true that I feel as if I was hit by a robber on the street.
However, the situation in the options market is no different.
Although the call option volume was secured in a hurry, the problem is that the number is far short of the target.
And even now, someone is absorbing options like crazy.
Come to think of it, isn’t the [Golden Invesco MRC Fund] getting pucked here and there?
“Could it be another force? Could [Maurizio Alpha Fund] be sure? Are those retard bastards even options?”
“Boss, let me check again.”
“Okay. If those bastards are really right, they’re going to fight with us after all.”
“Boss, I’m not sure, but even if it’s not this time, these are the guys who need to be taken care of at some point. They are like parasites.”
“Mmm.”
At this time, Director Grubbs twiddled the bridge of his nose for a while and was lost in thought.
[Maurizio Alpha Fund].
It is a very insignificant South American fund. However, this fund suddenly grew into a large fund. Thinking of being a fake of [Golden Invesco MRC Fund], a large number of Latino mathematicians were hired, and the investment was unexpectedly greatly expanded.
Rumors are rife that he brought drug money from a Mexican cartel, but the truth is still unknown.
But all of a sudden, [Maurizio Alpha Fund]… Damn that’s very embarrassing
Although the [Maurizio Alpha Fund] itself is insignificant, the problem is that if the Mexican drug cartel is really parasitic in this fund, as rumored, it will inevitably be very nerve-wracking. If you go to war with them to earn a penny or two more, you could rather be punished with blood from the drug cartel.
Shit!
Why isn’t this happening today?
Director Grubbs frowned and scratched his bangs with both hands. Then Director Grubbs raises his head again.
“What about the stock volume loss?”
“Approximately 350,000 shares have been meaninglessly lost.”
“What is the selling price?”
“Sell averages $227.56. It’s worth about $80 million…”
So, I couldn’t even sell it at the high point, and I was just robbed of 350,000 shares of large stocks by someone at the low point.
After the stock price crash, even the opportunity to recover it is lost.
So the damage is great.
The only thing left now is how to cover the loss with option profits.
“Could it be that Assistant Secretary Parker leaked the information?”
To Director Grubbs’ question, Malcolm has no answer this time. That’s because it’s an outside question.
“Okay, Malcolm. I’ll report it to the chairman right away, so you’d rather raise the stock price as much as possible from now on. Stephen and Bob will help you, so take responsibility and move immediately.”
“yes! boss.”
Malcolm immediately got up and ran out of the office.
I lost 350,000 stocks all of a sudden, but if I increase the value of the call option from now on, I will eventually be able to cover the loss with profits. In the end, you have to focus on raising the real stock price by risking more life and death. That is, until the stock of call options currently held is exhausted.
But the anger is still not resolved. Because of the unknown mudfish (?) in the option order window, everything that was going on slowly was completely ruined.

Meanwhile, at that time.
Hyun-jun could not take his eyes off of [Share Energy Inc] as he watched the trend of the stock price.
A stock that had risen rapidly a while ago.
But there is no such thing as always ascending forever.
The stock price stopped for a while at the $274.76 level, and from then on, it was facing a calm phase for a while.
As the stock price faltered, soon after, the stocks that realized profits came out all at once, and the buying and selling window was changing into something like a sledgehammer market.
However, that doesn’t mean the stock price goes down immediately. As if an invisible hand was persistently preventing the stock price from falling, it was tenaciously absorbing the pouring listings.
It looks like a kind of hungry leech clinging to a stock sale.
Even so, the additional share price increase did not happen seldom, and only the sluggish call flow continued for a while.
Based on approximately $274.76, only 30 cents and 40 cents fluctuated continuously.
In the meantime, some time passed.
At 4:05:36 in the morning, a sudden change appeared again.
#
$275.92.
$276.26.
$277.77.
$278.66.
$280.73.
$282.52.
$284.98.
$287.35.
Wow, here we go again!
After the short-term adjustment work was over, the upwardly priced items were absorbed again, and the stock price seems to rise like crazy.
In particular, as invisible investors rejoin the buying process all at once, the stock price rises very steeply.
As a result, the option order book, which is a derivative form, became more uproarious.
A surge in real stock prices.
After all, isn’t that a sudden rise in call option premium prices?
This is because it means an increase in the asking price of several tens or hundreds of percent, not just a few percent increase.
And because of that, in the option order book, buying and selling were made like light, and it was becoming difficult to keep up with the moment-to-moment trend of transactions with the naked eye.
Even in the confusion, Hyeon-jun waited in silence.
It has not yet reached its target.
From then on, time passed again, 4:22:46 in the morning.
The stock price, which was $289.88, finally broke through the $290 line.
At this time, Hyun-joon immediately fell into trouble as he approached his target of $293.4.
Of course, the same trouble as last time.
Do you want to wait a little longer without releasing the supply at the $293.4 level, or just clear all the options before $293.4 comes?
The former may be more profitable. But, of course, the risks are great. Because stock prices are always volatile. Even if it rises sharply, it may suddenly plunge.
So calm investors should never be fooled by the surface appearance of stock prices. This is because the stock price is a very sudden organism that cannot be known at any moment and how it will change.
Well, since the amount is too big this time, I think it would be better to go with a safe bread.
In the end, Hyeonjun liked the latter rather than the former.
Not even sure I’ll ever see the ghost number again.
Because it would be deplorable if the value of an option became cheap due to a useless risk.
But before that, Hyeon-joon started checking again.
Currently, the stock price has soared.
If so, at least good news should come out officially.
However, even after searching around, no good news has come out yet.
If so, it is said that there are still only rumors on the US side.
Mmm. what to do with this
Hyunjoon furrowed his brows severely.
In fact, if you judge these things instinctively, you shouldn’t be quick to sell these stocks. If you do that, you usually hit the ground and regret it more.
Hyunjoon thought about it again.
In the end, I made a very difficult decision.
It was a very tough decision.
And from then on, Hyeonjun’s hands began to tremble. I decided to watch more.
and after a while
The share price was rising further after hitting $293.4.
And from this point on, another struggle begins.
If you go up like this and then suddenly fall, everything you’ve accumulated so far will be blown away.
Could this be a real gamble?
And time was passing in extreme nervousness.
