Actually, I’m seeing the same (wide b/a spread in the last few weeks) on US equity’s options

Ah…I see . How come EVERY one of your posts are broker related? And it’s always customer’s fault …where did I heard it before , lol http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/search.php?s=&action=showresults&searchid=2184714

Where is my post I stated that it actually happened to me ??? Or that IB ( or any other broken ) will actually will do this ? I specifically called it a “nightmare scenario”. My post was about concept of “changing the rules in the middle of game / on the fly”. Everything is possible...

Changing the rules in the middle of the game is trader’s worst nightmare…I’m very often carrying following overnight PM based positions: Long the stock. Long twice ( or more , depending on deltas) # of puts , then : 87’ all over again…Futures are down huge , stock tanks 50% + in...

Sooo…What happened to the WS superior risk management??? Where were all these overpaid elitist quants and PhD’s ? Taleb was right once again: Sharpe , Sortino , Monte Carlo and others are absolutely worthless tools unless of course you are on the receiving end of “ heads we win , tails...

http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=60550 I see a lot of dead ppl on this old thread...riskarb...whatever happened to him ?

Ahh..exp-less options…I saw it at Vegas Trader's Expo…Presented by some Euro guy with two incredible hot bimbos next to him

Dip , sure , it’s fair. I personally don’t need these stats because I keep collecting it for the past 7 years ( 30k+ and counting). If you a seller of the reporting premium (and I am too, on CERTAIN stocks at CERTAIN time) , study’s results should improve your return

how do you THIS ? I am not arguing; but maybe you can posts some stats backing this statement.

You have to connect historical binary outcome with current (report day) IV/primium . This ratio is also depending on days left to expiration. And , yes , OTM ( or far OTM) will yield the best result , although win/loss ratio will be negative.

Due to latest market action, cyclical vols (report related) is broken. Calendars are the way to go right now (front/back month tenor …of course if you know where it’s going)

more like closed for "adjustments"

I guess “income generating” gurus will be covered under “other delusionals” , right ? LOL Words of the great Wondering Bear from Larry David show comes to mind: “And how is your vagina today?”

I say it's opens at 35 and touches 40 intraday...unless the rate cut , lol Thoughts ?

I say opens at 35 with day high at 40...unless the overnight rate cut , lol Thoughts ?

OP , I hope you listen and CLOSED this trade

Inherited ratio of 1.5 (odds to reach vs odds to close/reversals) advocates some kind of increase in initial position.

It’s a 64k question
