Read about 'max pain' It is as relevant to futures expirations as it is with equity options.

David Halsey has a great page on and about how to trade the e-minis eminiaddict.com

I was always wondering who would be stupid enough to buy the shit I've been selling for the last few years. Now I know. Keep up the good work :D

Pussy he he he You'll find your 'holy grail' at Amazon.

Laugh all you want Joe Ameritrade. No surprise on the lack of account minimum, LOL Pissed it away on your lack of probability calculation and trying to rub your crystal ball? I'll be on the other side of your foolishness and happily take your cash :) In fact, the next position you take, PM...

You do realize it's the weakest of the group. Not one I would hitch my wagon too. If you're in it you may want to start thinking of a crutch trade hedge or God help you the martingale.

Yeah I'm making it up just to impress people like you, caught me. OR just maybe I'm a pro ??? could it be??? nahhh Open an account if you want to out me in public. I have a rather stiff minimum FYI.

Yes, waiting/hoping for short squeeze. Last I looked it had a short interest over 20%. DV, APOL & BPI are looking good

I'm not going to give you setups or offer proof, but I might give you some food for thought. I've dropped over 6k tickets year to date, twice that in 09, on various proprietary option models. From time to time I find very strange things that should not exist, but they do. At one point...

I'm glad you disagree. The more like you that do the better off I'll be. "non sequitor" You do mean 'sequitur' right? If your trading uses the same attention to detail as your post you may want to find a decent broker before you're broke. :cool:

There is a gigantic difference. Institutions sell and retail buys. You should read up on 'max pain' The very BEST odds on a buy is 50% with a degrading theta. Selling can have 99% probs with time value decay on your side. The market can do three things, go up, down or sideways. You have two of...

I risk arb options that are deep out of the money against a select basket of stocks. I do not enter a trade unless it has an 85% probability of the desired outcome. As in any probability game it's about getting as much sample size as possible. The larger the sample the more validity the...

It's trading in teenths .... what good is that going to do you?

When I was prop trading I used ESignal Pro for analytics and Goldman Sachs Redi for placing orders. I also used proprietary Excel spreads fed by DDE through Redi Worked GREAT. Now I work for a wire-house and use ThomsonOne, or a very close firm customized version of it. Both are about...
