    Weird Spreads on Options

    Thanks. It is a glich. It happened before. Makes things ugly. Just curious if my broker has those contracts and trading against me. Not sure what regulations are like in Canada.

    Weird Spreads on Options

    I noticed that far out of money options can have insane spreads. While I am writing this (market closed): RUT Oct 31C 1720 has 9.0 ask and 0 bid. RUT Nov 2C 1715 has 0.65 ask and 0.25 bid. It will change once the market is open but the price swing was massive. Who the hell makes these prices...

    Profile of an average trader

    I am not sure yet if an average trader is 9-5 person doing this on the side or "all in" entrepreneur. I am self employed outside of the market. At times, it hurts like hell but I chose complete uncertainty over somewhat satisfactory certainty. So yeah...some deviation is there...

    Why isn't Tesla (or Twitter) running out of money?

    Thanks for posting. This and some other videos about Musk are helping me a lot with one issue. Originally I thought I would feel an incompentent wannabee as long as Musk lives. Feeling better now :cool:

    Profile of an average trader

    I am curious to find out what is the average profile of a trader on this website. I suspect that most people here are: 1. Male 2. Impatient by nature 3. Risk takers of course 4. Quick to judge 5. Haven't "made it yet" 6. Single I am assuming #5 is correct as a millionaire trader who is...

    Any Professional Prop/Day traders in GTA?

    There is a former institutional trader in GTA who "gives lessions". I bookmarked his website somewhere. Charges 10k! If you wish I can try to find it. I hope 96 in your screen name is not the year you were born? I think nobody who can make money would teach people as business no matter what some...

    Odds of aluminum & steel tariffs passing?

    Martha Stewart was convicted for selling 230k worth of ImClone stock one day before the bad news. How is this different other than the amount here is bigger? Trump said himself that the biggest trades are insider's trades...

    Rut on Friday March 2nd

    Omg! This is heating up... Let's see if I can calm it down with a more detailed explanation. A lot is about preception. To me this particular "Honestly" = "Really? You are asking this? You didn't know this?" So that reply already sounded dismissive to me. It's not nice to treat a newbee like...

    Rut on Friday March 2nd

    I was wondering if experienced traders can shed some light on why did RUT soar yesterday (Friday 2nd) while there was doom and gloom news all over? In my opinion people are overreacting in regards to Trumps tarrifs on steel anyway. Just day ahead the ratio of put to call on RUT was 3:1. So what...
