    Will this naive option strategy work in practice?

    Actually I'm pretty sure it's illogical. Logically, if you could do that then you wouldn't need any funds to open an account with in the first place.

    Will this naive option strategy work in practice?

    You have 42 credit cards and each month you charge the minimum balance due to one of the other cards don't you?

    A notice to Noobs regarding Expiration friday.

    I have no idea where this thought of whether Google shares would be tradable at that price came from. The point was that someone pointed out that Google ATM calls never trade for .05/.10 even eod on expiration. I simply was pointing out that yes, an ATM Google call can trade that low and did...

    A notice to Noobs regarding Expiration friday.

    Oh I understand that and I understand what he's saying, but there's a difference between what should be and what actually is. .. that and I've got nothing else to do right now so endlessly replying to him is no big deal.

    A notice to Noobs regarding Expiration friday.

    So my broker's quotes and the ISE data feed is wrong, and you are right because theoretically it _should not_ be priced like that. That's nice. Since you were proven wrong, the exchanges and everyone else was doing it wrong. Let me put it another way. If the stock was going for 430.10 at EOD...

    A notice to Noobs regarding Expiration friday.

    Ok The data I posted was not wrong and you could just as easily check it. Let's try something. Was the 430 call at EOD ATM? Was the 430 call at EOD priced at .05/.10? That is all I was pointing out in response to you saying that the GOOG ATM option would never be priced that low even at...

    A notice to Noobs regarding Expiration friday.

    For anything that overly matters I wouldn't rely on them either, but the only time I've ever noticed them wrong is when the option hasn't been traded that day. Yahoo lists the last price regardless if it was that day or not. .. Personally I think it should reset all last prices each day, but...

    A notice to Noobs regarding Expiration friday.

    Yes, because it was quicker and easier than logging in to my broker, I checked Yahoo. So I checked two of my brokers chains and the quote for the ATM call was .05/.10 Market data for the last sale of the day shows as .15 - 130 contracts (at 4:20) All the last orders before actual close...

    A notice to Noobs regarding Expiration friday.

    I didn't really pay much attention to whatever you were saying, I was just pointing out to whoever claimed the ATMs would not be priced at .05/.10 at any time that in fact they were. Past that I could care less..

    A notice to Noobs regarding Expiration friday.

    I mean.. this is none of my business or anything ... but look up GOPGF. .. I'll save you the trouble.. 430 call - Google closed at 430.25 and bid ask is .05/.10 Just sayin.

    Anyone tried eOption.com?

    If there is a bid out there at 1.1 and you route to a different exchange with a sell of 1.1 - You're going to get filled. I don't know what crap your broker was telling you.

    A little advice needed please :)

    If you're trading large volume then go to Options House. $9.95 flat, no per contract. If you're only doing a couple contracts per order then nevermind. I'm sure you can do the math to figure it out.

    Lightspeed vs. Optionshouse vs. Sterling

    I use OH but have never used Lightspeed or Sterling so I can't directly answer your question .... Feel free to ask any specific question about OH and maybe I can be of help.

    OptionsHouse delayed quotes?

    Because OH fits your needs on commissions. The delayed quotes are probably because OH heard of you and don't want your business. If you ever start to think that you're not a douchebag, just got back to that IB thread and read the responses again. WHAAA .. I'M TOO YOUNG AND IB WON'T LET ME...

    OptionsHouse delayed quotes?

    Ohhh.. You're the douche that posted that thread about suing IB cause of the age thing.. HAHA .. Never mind, your question, and it being asked here makes perfect sense now.

    OptionsHouse delayed quotes?

    Not to be a dick, but wouldn't this be one of those things you would ask them? ... Now that I have that out of my system.. Quotes are realtime, free, etc etc etc.. why you don't have them ? .. Probably because of that paperwork issue, or cause you're unfunded. ..

    Is it legal for IB to do this? Considering pressing a charge...

    Even if you get an exemption from their age policy you'll probably bump into the no douchebags policy. I'm not sure though. Seriously.. When you get a little older you will realize how stupid you sounded and how misguided you were thinking you could sue a business for refusing you based on...
