Every time I think of you I always catch my breath And Im still standing here And youre miles away And Im wondering why you left And theres a storm thats raging Through my frozen heart tonight I hear your name in certain circles And it always makes me smile I spend my time Thinking...

I think you should buy a Beemer (or similar) tomorrow with those can't miss profits!

A move to either inner strike will produce about the same gain (or loss) depending on if you bot or sold the IC. It's pretty much symmetrical. Toward the outer strikes the change will be greater to downside which would be less good for you if you had sold the inner strikes. Time decay would...

when someone says ONLY, that means that they have no clue how to do it.

the ones who really kneo what they were doing are making thosands of dollars per trade with automated trading and can spend their time posting here, playing golf and whatever they liked. Aren't we the better for it? :)

Skip LAST CHANCE HARVEY. Kinda hokey unless you wanna take the little lady to a chick flick :D

Does you broker not have smart routing to the best priced exchange?

Just because you are too dumb to comprehend what he wrote doesnt mean he owes you another explanation. All you have to do is read his post slowly sevral times and you might figure out what he was saying.

Au contraire Putzy. Atticus was mocking your moronic statements about options not your trades. No one here cares about the trades you put on for pennies that lose dollars on. Putzy thinks that this public BB is his domain where he makes the rules and controls the discussion. All I can say is...
