Nothing is wrong with your argument but I hate sitting on dead money. My time line are weeks and months not years. I am not buffet enough to wait for that kind of setup. I find a trending sector and trade it until it gets choppy then I find another. right now I dont see a definate trend in the...

i rather flip a coin! better odds

thats almost a broken wing butterfly its not possible to have that kind of broken wing on one side.

not touching this sector until you tell me fro pays a $5 div again.

been all in since december on every trade in one of my small account. 440%+ so far. could be lucky that we are in a trend.

I dont see it happening in my life time. there might be less company but those new fleets of double hual are just starting to go in the water. over capacity = less spot prices.

oh the days of TNK and GMR and FRO paying a fat div.

use a calendar spread

thats a limit buy on a calendar

cnbc rumor I love them. I have BAC in my portfolio the run up almost killed my calendar spread I didnt wanted the run up too fast and the rumor stopped it perfectly I almost had to buy some closer month calls to offset the premium on the april calls I sold on thursday against my august calls...

I am not disagreeing with you at all but my instruction to my broker is exercise when you see my short leg get assigned, in any case its a covered position. Believe me I know what you're saying that is why I gave him an example of what I do, its not theoretical.

not entirely sure what you're trying to ask but yes I trade for myself so its a retail account hence PMA and there are no margin involve in this debit spread. If I get assigned my long call will auto exercise to cover if I dont have enough cash in the account for the short.

I would love to get assigned before expiration because I would realize my profit right away, with OTM puts there is no chance this will happen.

I'll pick an easy one AAPL for example the April 21 calls 440/445@4.8 if you buy 40 verts it will cost you $19200 to make $800 when it expires AAPL is at 585 now the probality it's going to 445 in a month is not very likely. fundamentally AAPL is solid, technically the chart show an up...

my bread and butter is the DITM verticals with starting risk/reward ratio of 10-20:1 or less. a very high probability trade, its boring but it will make consistence money over time. There are people that say this is a crazy trade why would you risk 10K to make 1K or 20K to make 1K but if you...

my advice to you is get experience trading live with 1 contract until you can make consistence profit over a long period of time, I would say 1 year. -pick one strategy and be good at it and use it exclusively. -concentrate on one trade at a time. -read a few books about trading not...

load up on DITM call for june...magic number will be 45. sprinkle a little pringle.

your neighbor is not that wrong I been looking at BAC too. Options have been disproportionate on the call side since the turn of the year also look further out into the leaps. its pricing a 10-12 range by year end.

I had to gamble a little:D

I guess no one use eoptions regularly enough to give a review. I am a long time user of TOS but commission is getting a little to high for the volume I am doing. I just open an account with OptionHouse to check them out. Someone told me about Eoptions and there's isnt enough info on the web...
