    Want a VR device for a NYE party. Newbie.

    Ok, I want a little toy for guests to play with. Can use Windows or Mac. But not iPhone 8. What should I buy? Good Guides? $400 sounds about right? What can I get/do/learn? No porn for this crowd.

    C2 newbie question

    Actually, I was going to be posting my trade and system. Not using someone else's. The other side of the C2 program, in other words. Was wondering how many subscribers the average trader attracts.

    C2 newbie question

    Have a very simple short vol strategy with hedges. Is it worth it to pay the $99 a month as a way of getting subscriptions? What does the average C2 trader get in subs? Personally, I just want to offset my fees and 20 or so a month at $5 a pop will do that. Realistic? (Apologies in advance if...

    Looking for a desk or wall ticker similar to Lametric

    Tks much. Haven't used Alexa yet but this might make me try it. A key question: Can I set it up for alerts, like ES down 1 %? I don't want to ask. I just want it to wake me up at 4 a.m. if there is a Houston we have a problem moment, and I am asleep. I also presume the stock market app does...

    Looking for a desk or wall ticker similar to Lametric

    One that just shows the S&P futures 24/7, rt. Alternatively, does anyone know if Amazon's Alexa will proactively warn me if, say the SP is down 1%?

    IB Strategy Builder question: the iron condor

    Sorry, thought I put that in; I use IB's strategy builder, useful for a two-leg trade. But baffled as to how to input a four-leg trade.

    IB Strategy Builder question: the iron condor

    Do I have to build and submit this as two separate trades? Or call I do all four legs at once. Kept getting either bear put spread or bull call spread but no way to expand into an IC.

    How Hedged Am I in the Pre-and After-Market Hours?

    Let's say I am long stock, long puts, delta hedged 1 or very close (or short stock, long calls.) The stock spikes or collapses overnight. Any risk of a margin call? (More specifically, what I mean is there any chance a change in the stock prices in the pre and after market will lead to a margin...

    Newbie Question on VXX options

    Ok what happen pre-market if there is a black swan event. Is there a period where VXX could spike but the calls haven't opened yet. Thanks for the VIX, btw, but I suspect this my be more of a hedging question on a short VXX position.

    Muni CEFs

    I have a lot of cash on my balance sheet from short positions that have been held for a long time and probably will continue to be held. I'd like to do something with that cash that's safe and accessible but gives me a better return, even if slightly. I'm thinking about muni CEFs. Anyone have...
