Yes, they WILL honor the stop. As I said before, that comes at a cost though. In situations of high volatility they are going to take you out EARLY! You need to understand that. That is why people on ET scream about running stops. They are NOT running stops. They are executing the way that...

It's not a question of obvious, it was more an issue of asymmetry. Could the spread could go against you 5 or 10 cents? Sure. But these spreads are like long calls. Most of them won't go anywhere but the upside is .50 to a 1.00 so the payoff is very attractive. And with gas, all it takes...
