You're welcome back. We did say that we're going to be talking security and women's participation in the election or in politics And we're being joined by Mr. Augustine Ega, a security expert. Welcome to the program Augustine. Augustine, can you hear me? I can hear you. Good morning. Okay. Good morning. Well, let us begin by assessing the level of preparedness of INEC as it regards security. Yeah, I think from what we can see in town now, there have been a lot of redeployment of their officers. I mean, the men of the police force, they are everywhere. And also other law enforcement bodies and also the Nigerian Army is also supporting the Nigerian police because the Nigerian police are the primary people in charge of this election supervision to maintain law and order. But other military personnel have also joined and other law enforcement bodies have also joined them. Around town, we can see that in very sensitive boots, some of the intelligence units, they are not wearing uniforms. They are all over the pulling units. You will not recognize them. Some are not on uniforms. They are gathering intelligence of every area. They are communicating with themselves and ensuring that everything works according to plan. I'll ask you the second question. Mr. Bayo Loakey has been standing by very patiently. I haven't even introduced him today, but he's been there all this while. Bayo, I'm so glad to have you join us this morning. Good morning to you. Hello, Bayo. Yes, can you hear me? Yes, I can hear you right now. Okay. Mr. Augustin Ega is on now, and we're talking this security. And I know that you always have good questions for Mr. Ega. But let me just ask him this before I hand him over to you. Mr. Ega, let me come back to you. What are the points? I don't want to use flash points that the security should be looking at this election because tomorrow is just a matter of hours before the election proper begins. So where do you think concentration should be? And what do you think should be done by the security agencies? I think there are two aspects of security we must look at. On the physical side is just what I mentioned. We can see the law enforcement people in some of the places where they have their men. There was this concern from beginning that how are they going to get their men to handle this election? There were fears that this election could be postponed. And I also mentioned earlier that there's always a backup plan by the police to withdraw some of their men from sensitive bicks in order to measure up with this election. And from the physical security, I think they are everywhere. Some are in uniform. Some are in plain clothes. The DSS, they are all in the intelligence unit, both the military and all the law enforcement. Some are not really putting on uniforms. And they are everywhere trying to ensure that things are working. Based on also the normal cash crunch that we can see in the society today in Nigeria, it has also minimized the rate of movement. I mean travels around town.  People can drive freely. That shows that with this minimal movement on the streets, it's also some form of security for us to ensure that this event or this exercise becomes a success. Now on the logical security, which is cyber security, that is where I have major concerns because everything has gone logical. What I mean logical I mean cyber or digital. I don't know the preparation from INEC because if they all the election results will be uploaded instantly to the web. I think we need to have some very, very good cyber experts that will help us protect the integrity of this results so that they don't change the results online. And these are the things, these are the side that I think comes in. But on the physical side, I am very, very sure that the Nigerian police and the law enforcement and all the military paraciters, they are well on ground to ensure that they give their best. Okay, Bayo, he's all yours now. I hand him over to you. Bayo, can you hear me? Okay, Bayo cannot hear me now or if he can hear me, I cannot hear him now. So Mr. Ega, you're still with me. We've had international observers come in. We've had external concerns, countries from around the world expressing concern over this election and talking about security, talking about the need for peaceful elections and so many other things that the eyes of the world are on Nigeria right now. Do you think all these will help to bring calmness to this election? Yes, I'm sure it will bring calmness. You see, you said a child that is monitored will definitely want to do well. And I can see that the most tense election we've ever had was the election of Joe Goodlop, Jonathan, former president, Goodlop, Jonathan and the sitting president. That was the most tense election we've ever had and will ever have in Nigeria because during that period, I was also monitoring events from Ghana. The Marine Corps, the US Marine Corps, they were all around in Ghana and trying to see how they could do backup plans. In fact, even moving their main out of Nigeria or standing by for any emergencies that will happen. And it's a good thing for us because it's a form of deterrence. If the people in Nigeria want to compromise from any authority, they should know that Nigeria is not just standing alone. Nigeria is part of the international community. And so with them coming to observe with us, it is a good thing that it will help us to really do the right thing. A few days back, they had this peace accord. Of course, that started during Jonathan and the sitting president, the Buhari, where they had the peace accord signed. I think about a few days back, a few hours back, the contest and the presidential candidates were also in Abuja to sign the peace pact. And these are all measures to ensure that we have a peaceful election. Okay, Bayo, we lost your audio at some point, so glad to have you back. Here's all yours, please. Yes, thank you, Yamgoo. And Mr. Ega, it's always a pleasure to have you on the program. Good morning. Good morning. Yes, I have been looking at the entire set up and the preparations. And I have been particularly impressed by the fact that all the political parties campaigned across the country. Maybe with the exception of Podakot if I'm right, we had an explosion before a particular rally in Podakot. But otherwise, everything has gone well. Now, there are those who suggest that this could underscore the claim of the military that they had actually neutralized the insurgency. Because we know that, for instance, 2013-2014, even most parts of the south had big issues with fears of Boko Haram. What's your response to that? You know, vis-à-vis the conduct of the elections, the security around, sorry, the conduct of the campaigns. The security around those campaigns and so on. What's your thought on that? I think we have very enlightened electorates right now. We have people who are very enlightened. The political leaders are enlightened. They have come to realize that it's not a do or die. I mean, we can see some of these leaders in those political parties that are contesting, actually having their own time and shaking hands and laughing. I think the society, I think the citizens of Nigeria have come to realize that it is a sport. To me, I see politics as a sport. And then they are realizing it because most of Nigerians are football fans. I think that is helping us to bring it into play in politics. That it is not something that everyone has to die for. And this has helped us this far to see that the political parties and their leaders have conducted themselves very well. And ensuring that Nigeria being in this state of violence for some time, they are really trying their best to ensure that they come the whole situation. And I can also, I'm also satisfied to say that the military, I think I read a comment yesterday, that the Nairas Cassidy or the cash crunch that we have right now has helped them to mitigate insorgency. And of course, we know that that is very true because most of these things, there are things that really need money to buy anything off. And some of these illegal buying, it's not something they do digital. It's something they do physical. So by taking off this cash off the system, somehow has also helped to calm the security situation in Nigeria. Even the campaigns, you can see that people are really out to just support. But those sharing like we used to see, of course, even if they are sharing is not really there like before. And these are things that have also helped us at this moment that we are having a peaceful time to really talk. And I'm sure that we are going to have a very peaceful election. Okay. Now, we've always been concerned about the size of the police, you know. And unfortunately, in my view, we do not seem to be doing anything about that. From the time of President Jonathan, even under President Buhari, they don't quite some things for the police. But the issue of the size of the police is still a big one. And you just alluded to the hierarchy of our police withdrawing police officers from bits that are less sensitive. I look at the fact, if I'm correct, that we have 179,000 polling units. I'm just trying to make sure, sorry, 176,846 polling units for the presidential election. If we put one police officer, because there must be one police officer at least in each of the polling units. That would be 176,846 polling units. We cannot put the military in polling units because that's not allowed anywhere. Only the police can be in polling units. Do you think we are ready to have almost 177,000 police officers? We could be twice that. If we keep two police officers, because police, you don't put one police officer anywhere. Many countries, there's always two police officers at once. That would be 176,846, 846 times two. Are we really up to that? Well, you see, when it comes to logistics, you know, some of these intelligence, there's a way, there's a handshaking. You know, if we depend on only just the police, they have law enforcement. You know, when it comes to this state, the civil defense, civil, as you can hear the word, the name civil, they are very involved just like the police. Before they were not armed, now they are armed. And they also have DSS, which you will not know their number. How do you get in it, sir? So they have DSS, they are very much involved in this, they are involved in the election process. But you will not really know them because they are plain clothes guys, they are secret service. And so they know how they strategize in their manpower. And they have been giving us results. And now that we have this kind of a logical approach to handling this election process, I think it's something that is even, it's not even more demanding on having too much manpower. Because everything is going to be digital. And of course, they have DSS, they have the law enforcement, somehow on the background without clothes. They're just to check, to check my certain violence. But I'm sure that from the strategy that they have, I'm sure they are prepared. If they are not prepared, definitely they will inform the presidency that they are not prepared. But if it's a go for us, I'm sure the security situation is solid for us to go. Okay. Okay. So it's good to hear that. Sorry, I'm good. You can go ahead. I was going to do a follow up of which would be like a wrap up. Okay. Yeah. At this point is, is just 12 hours to that, that D day. So I'm just asking what security measures can be deployed by the citizens themselves in order to stay safe, yet still protect their votes. Right. Right now, the citizens are, first of all, they must know where they are going to vote. Because you see some certain confusion that I've had in the past. You see somebody will go through two polling units or three polling units until they get frustrated at the end they won't vote. I think this is the best hour to find out where you're supposed to vote, where your polling unit is, your polling station, where you need to vote. This is the hour to find out, not tomorrow morning. And before they leave, there are so many emergency numbers we have for the media, including the television media and the radio, they all have their lines that we can call. They have the Nigerian military have also produced, they also provided us with the emergency numbers. We also have the Nigerian police and all law enforcement. They have the emergency numbers everywhere. So before anyone leaves this house, I believe we should have all of these numbers working. The media, the law enforcement, the military should have all these numbers so that if you see anything, you say something by calling either the law enforcement or military or the media to help you take shots and ensure that you send some evidence to the media to back up whatever point you're making.  There's nothing like I stand for this party or not. At this moment, you need to keep quiet so that you don't raise some sort of violence at the polling unit, the polling stations. So you just go there and ensure that you keep yourself where you're voting for. We've got those areas that will also bring some kind of violence against some citizens who are not aware of it, that you need to keep quiet. This is a moment of silence from now till you cast your votes. There should be no talk about politics or political party anymore. I think this is what I see. When they go, they should be adhering to the instruction that will be given. They will definitely meet the INC officials, they will meet certain laws because people are trying to conduct them on the crowd. Just obey the crowd. Obey the people organizing the crowd so that if there is condo, there is obedience, there is some sort of compliance to the rules and regulation in the particular polling unit. I'm so ordered to follow suit. But if there's this confusion, we're going to have confusion at the polling unit. Well, thank you very much, Mr. Augustine Nega for coming on the program and giving us security tips. It's good that you are very confident that tomorrow will be a very, very peaceful election and God willing, we really are going to have that. So we are hoping that you are going to vote as well tomorrow, right? Very prepared. Very prepared to vote. Well, vote well, stay safe. Thank you for coming on the program today. Thank you, welcome. It's a pleasure. Okay, it's always a pleasure talking with Mr. Augustine, a guy, a security expert of International Repute, and he's telling us that tomorrow is going to be very peaceful and we all are hoping for that. And we're going to take a short break right now. When we return, we'll be talking about women participation in election or in politics generally, and we'll be joined by our guests. In the meantime, just stay with us.


Hey guys, what is going on? It's Bracad23 here with Xtrades. Today, we're going to talk about something that's very important in options, especially if you're new to trading and unfamiliar with them is the Greeks. So the Greeks are really important in driving and just being the foundation of option prices. So a lot of these can be used along with your price targets to really help you pick the right option strikes and expirations for your own risk tolerance. So getting a better understanding of the Greeks and how they all interact together can really help you hone your skill better if you're trading options so that you can really target those strong risk to reward trades. So without any further ado, we're just going to go into kind of a high level synopsis of what the main Greeks are, the four Greeks that I have laid out here. We're going to go into a little bit of detail about them and then I'm going to give you some examples about how you can use them as proxies and you can try and solve the examples and then we'll go over the answers with it together. So theta is what we'll kind of start things off with and this is pretty straightforward, but it essentially measures the change in the contract as time passes. So this is like the cost of you swing the option for a day, swing the option overnight, is essentially the theta. And if you're doing a buy to open, it's always going to be a negative value. If you're going to sell the open contracts, theta is going to be a positive value. Delta essentially measures the change in the contract for a corresponding $1 change in the underlying stock price. So for calls, for example, delta will be in between zero and one and for puts, the delta will be in between negative one and zero because it's really honed in on that increase by $1. So obviously, you know, a put is not going to have a positive delta because if the stock increases by $1 then the option price wouldn't improve. It would actually get worse because that would work against your buy to open put option, for example. So essentially it's saying, if the price moves $1, this is what you could expect your option price to be if it goes up by $1 and that same that same delta can be used to project prices. If your option contract were to fall by a dollar essentially, or if the underlying fell by $1, then you could also project your option price to the downside. Gamma measures the rate of change for the delta. So this is just saying after that first $1 move that gamma shows you how much delta will increase for the next $1 move. So delta doesn't stay the same over time. So it's really just the impact to your delta if the underlying stock were to increase by a dollar. This tells you your new delta once you add it to the previous delta. As far as Vega goes, this simply measures the change in your contract by the given change in implied volatility. So this takes the implied volatility and for, you know, plus or minus percentage of implied volatility. It'll take that and multiply it by this Vega factor, which is used to give you that the value of Vega and the change in Vega, which you can relate back to your option premium. So again, this is just very high level and we'll go into a little more detail below, but essentially this is an example of, you know, buying stock XYZ. You can see that we have a few situations that are explained here where we go into detail about the contracts as far as the implied volatility is. The delta, the gamma, the theta, and the Vega. So you have all the grease that you need in order to do this calculation. And then we're also going to just give you a straightforward and simple scenario, which is assuming same day is purchased, prices increased by $1 and IVS increased to 30%. What is the approximate value of your option contract? So go ahead, just you can take notes, pause the screen, and just take a second and try and calculate on your own based on the conversation we just had and based on your understanding of the Greeks at a high level using the information on this slide. So go ahead and pause the screen now before I move on to the answer and explanation. So as far as the details and the answer goes, the price of the underlying increased by $1, okay? So we know that there's no impact to gamma that we need to calculate for this because there's really no price move beyond that $1. So gamma doesn't impact this calculation, although it does mean that if there was another dollar move that the gamma would be involved and delta would be higher. So we obviously just have to take delta into account here, no gamma. Additionally, no time has passed so theta will remain unchanged. I mean, obviously theta changes even throughout the course of the day sometimes, but assuming there's a long, you know, where weeks out from expiration, just assume that no time has passed. We're not kind of looking for tricky answers to these questions. It's just to make sure you have a good understanding of how they function generally. And then the IV increased and will need to be taken into account via Vega. So we have just the calculation written out down here. The current price is $1. We know that the delta is 0.08. We know Vega is 0.02. And we saw that 3% increase in vague or implied volatility, which means that our Vega value has increased our option contract 0.06 or 6%. And there's been no increase to theta or no impact to theta and no impact to gamma for this simulation. So that puts our projected price at $1.14. So, you know, assuming this situation occurred, you'd be looking at, you know, a 14% increase in your option contract, given this scenario. Now, this one was pretty straightforward. There's no real, you know, theta to incorporate. There's no gamma. So we're going to go into a slightly more complicated answer for the next one that you might have to spend a little bit more time on. So for this example, again, assuming all the same general attributes with the implied volatility, data, gamma, delta, gamma, theta and Vega, this is the same exact contract and grief that we were looking at in the previous scenario. But the situation has changed. So assuming one day has passed since entering the contract, the underlying price of XYZ has increased by $2 and IV has decreased by 2%. What is the approximate value of your option contract? So go ahead again, take a moment, pause the screen and write down your calculation and try and get to the answer that you see best fit based on the data given. So go ahead and pause it. I'm going to move on to the details and answer on the next slide. Okay, so as far as the details and answer goes, the price of the underlying increased by $2, which means now we need to leverage gamma. Additionally, one day has passed, so theta will impact the contract as well. So this one incorporates delta, gamma, theta and Vega, because we know that over this period of time, for whatever reason, the implied volatility has decreased. So we need to take this into account as well using Vega. So the current price of the option is $1 when we bought it. As far as delta goes, we're looking at a 0.18 total impact through delta and gamma. So again, the reason being for this is for that first dollar move, we had delta 0.08. But as we know, gamma is the rate of change for delta. So that 0.02 gets added and our delta after that $1 move becomes 0.10. So then that makes our total delta and gamma for this $2 move 0.18. That being said, our Vega decreased by 2%. So then we take that 0.02 and multiply it by the negative 2% decrease, which gives us a negative 0.04. And then we also know that theta was 0.10 and needs to be subtracted. Granted, I'm sorry, I didn't specify that it was a bit open contract. But at any rate, theta needs to be subtracted in this case. And that leaves our projected price at 1.04 or a 4% increase from the current price. So again, this is just a good way to give yourself an understanding for how all of these interact. And as you can tell it, if you have a good understanding of the delta, the gamma, how much your theta premium is, and if you use implied volatility and historical volatility, you can get a good idea of the kind of expected moves and price targets you could have for the underlying stock and really leverage these options and the Greeks to give you a strong understanding of what your options would look like if those price targets were reached, because you have this deeper understanding of everything that drives them. And that's why it's so important. And whether you're trading same-day expiry or longer dates, it's very important for you to understand all of the things that contribute to future price movements and the price movements of these derivatives. So I hope that this was helpful and I hope that you guys learned something, especially if you're new to trading options. This is definitely something you should understand before diving in. And if you guys have any questions at all, please let me know in the comments below. I'm sorry if I might have kind of gone over something quickly. It is kind of a complicated concept to explain at a high level, but if you guys have any questions, you can just submit them below and I'll do my best to answer them. And I hope that you guys had a great trading day and I hope you stay green. So thanks so much for joining, guys. Have a great day.


What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overload here So we'll be talking about scream sick solely in this video here again today Kevin Williamson in a interview with sci-fi more specifically the sci-fi wire Sat down to talk about his upcoming movie sick, which is debuting on peacock later tonight If you want to I would advise I would encourage you actually to stay up and watch this movie when it drops Because sick is a great movie the best pandemic slasher era movie We've gotten thus far out of the bunch that are out there or just out of pandemic movies in general to be honest If you saw my review, you know that I really enjoyed that movie and think it's a pretty well done Slasher movie set in the pandemic era stay up and watch that tonight when it drops on peacock But during this interview where he was talking about his upcoming Movie sick he got asked about scream sick and he has had nothing but high praises to say about this movie going over that Going over radio silence now He thinks they're they're the appropriate fit to be handling the IP now. Oh taking over from a force him and West Craven He said this about scream six. It doesn't feel like part six. It feels like you're watching this big huge fresh reinvention He also stated I love love love it. I've watched the movie with a big smile on my face I think it's everything and more and going to New York was awesome the movie feels new it feels fresh It feels like a new movie now Of course, he just repeated some stuff there at the end But that first little snippet obviously not too shocking to hear that the serious curator Who's on as an executive producer for the upcoming film loved this movie? However, it seems that going off of some of his the way I'm the way I'm just fulfilling the energy or interpreting the energy from this words He seems like he's preferring this one over screen five Which to me was something I was already kind of getting a sense of just from the simple teaser When I saw that the aerial shots of the city the way everything was just setting the stage and then that brief small teaser of what We saw the cinematography looked a lot better. Everything just looked a lot better in terms of the The sets looking a lot more authentic given how everything was restricted due to the COVID protocols during the production of five Six definitely looks like visually. It's gonna surpass five easily I'll have to see if the script is actually executed in a manner that surpasses what was written in five But on the surface from what we saw in that teaser. Those are the exact vibes I was getting that this is going to be better than screen five and that's what I'm picking up or Interpreting Kevin Williamson's words from this interview. He seems like he prefers screen six over screen five Now he also said this about about radio silence is that radio silence is amazing They're the perfect people to take the torch. I love screen six. It's really good. It's great. There's no way around it I'm very happy with how it turned out. I really do have all that enthusiasm for it. I'm really excited You're not the only one that's excited. I'm excited now to hearing these words from you and interpreting the way that I am And just deciphering how how he must be feeling and the energy behind his words when he's saying this I'm excited for screen six. I'm excited to see ghostface take on New York. I'm excited to see ghostface show Jason How it's done. We won't have ghostface in like a majority of the movie set in Woodsboro And then we'll catch a boat trip over to New York at the last minute ghostface is gonna show Jason how it's done So what do you guys think about what Kevin Williamson had to say in that interview? What do you think he's really overly excited about? What do you think is happening in screen six that has him feeling this way? I will share My thoughts on some more of this after I read this last excerpt from this article says during an interview Last year bet now bet now bet Nellie open Which you know is one of directors one half a radio silence stated that the key was to stay true to the material while subverting audiences Expectations it has to take risk and I think we had a lot of fun on this one being like How do we make sure that we have one foot firmly planted in the legacy and in the history of screen? But then also try to take a step forward and try to play with your expectations a little bit I will say that going off of what Kevin has stated about his thoughts on the movie It seems like they do enough to honor and pay respect to what scream has been But then they shake it up enough to be their own unique movie From radio silence and this is radio silence is iteration of scream while still remaining true to what scream has been in the past But we're seeing things in a screen movie that we've never seen before which makes me excited That's what I'm hoping we get anyway Well, we're seeing different things that aren't playing it as safe as you could argue screen five played it What those could be those could be a variety of different things One the simple fact that we're in New York City We're out of we're out of California once again the only time we went out of California in the past I believe was screened to all the other movies. Yes or seven California. So this is the first time since 97 we are outside of California, thank God and We have a movie without Sydney Prescott, of course that is also some opportunity. There's some opportunity there You have an opportunity to see if you can actually tell a compelling story That's solely just tied to these characters and not use any of the past legacy characters as crutches Not that they were used as crutches in the fifth movie But again, you have chance to develop those characters Chances to introduce a new audience to these characters that maybe haven't even seen any of the movies Sydney has been in Maybe this is the first movie from the franchise They see and this is what helps them become a fan of the franchise and wants them or encourages them to go watch The previous movies and see how we got up to this point When it relates to just like shaking up and dodging expectations or subverting expectations Expectations right now I think the biggest expectation for a lot of fans is the fact that you're going to kill off a lot of the woodsworld survivors So I think how you could play with our expectations is put them in these dangerous Scenarios, but don't have them die there just yet use that mindset of the public To your advantage to help create tension help create suspense help create these fun chase sequences or dire situation Similar to how we've been teased that Mindy could potentially be dying on that subway there in the teaser Chances are she's not gonna die there, but then she will die later on in the movie You can see stuff like that going on where they play with you to make you think that this character that you Already are going into dreading the chance of this character dying Put them in situations where you think they're about to die Then they don't so you get that breath of fresh air after your blood pressure was just up your heart was racing Then you get that sigh relief when they don't die then you get that false sense of security Minutes later moments later however many scenes later that same character that you thought was going to die right then in there They get killed or better yet another way you could do it some of these people that think the characters are gonna die What if they survive that's the other thing that could be something that people aren't ready for or prepared for So you guys can let me know what you think about this down in the comment section below What are your thoughts on Kevin Williamson's comments on scream six and his praise of course again like I stated There's nothing shocking about this because of the fact that it's Kevin Williamson. He's attached to the project in some capacity. However, I Trust him in what he's saying. I trust him in what he's saying given that I've already seen his movie sick And I know that he still has it. He has not lost a step. Although. I know he was a co-writer for sick I have faith that what he's saying about scream six will will end up being my sentiments when I see the movie as well Or of course, he could be lying. I mean he he lied about stew being dead, right? That's that's the sentiment by some fans that he's lying about stew marker being dead even though he's not I'm telling you right now. He's not you guys again Can let me know should think about this down in the comment section below if you haven't already of course Make sure you go ahead and subscribe Turn on post notifications so that you never miss a video in the description I will have links to my social media accounts. I am on Facebook Twitter and Instagram You can message me there of course to let me know if there any movies news or reviews I've been to cover in the future and with all that in mind guys. I will see you in the next video


From Soldiers Radio and Television, this is the Army Now. Wounded warriors from all branches of the service have been buying for the gold. For most, the Warrior Games represent more than just competition. It's helped me overcome depression. Life goes on. No matter what your disability is or your illness or your injury, you can always overcome. As a member of the Army National Guard, Sergeant Gout played semi-pro football with the prospect of a professional career. It all changed when he was injured, shattering his shoulder during Operation Jumpstart. The Warrior Games provided an outlet to do what he loves most, compete. It was hard for me to learn how to sprint again because all your power and speed came from your arms. So pretty much what I did is I learned how to use function with one arm and not use my shoulder at all. And I'm fast as lightning. That's the Army Now.
