    Thanks, Hajimow. I thought you had stated the option symbol "XLNX" and I don't know how to find options by their symbol, hence the question to be able to track it by knowing the underlying. But you WERE talking about the underlying all along - my mistake. You say you keep on selling more and...

    Could you tell me how to find the underlying by your quoting "XLNX"? Thanks.

    Thanks - CNMS2 and Smallfil, to both of you for the rec's - I will be studying. By the way, does anyone know how one can keep momentary track of crude and nat. gas prices? I will stay close by to watch for Pinabetal's picks.

    Thanks for asking - I did the worst I could have done. I set a sell limit order for $5 on the calls instead of a trailing stop as I could not be there for the day. They must have come just short of that, then went down for the day. When I checked in an hour before close, stock was at $400.86...

    How about GOOG for tomorrow the 18th? I know it definitely is weakening now, as it had a hard time following the Nasdaq's strong afternoon rally. I'm stuck in Nov.400 calls that are having a hard time keeping premium. I don't know whether to close in an opening rally or wait closer to market close.

    I think GOOG will reverse soon as well, but farther past $405. I believe 400 is a strong resistance point and that the pressure to breakthrough is still pretty strong, judging by the quick rebound Nov.10. Where do you see demand dropping off? I see volume still about average, if that's what you...

    Oops!! Don't know how I did that - probably the same way as Optionpro007's last post to me.

    What a GOOG day! Good for you, QIUNIU, for closing this a.m.! I thought for sure it was going to break $400 today, seeing how bullish it was just after open, so I dumped almost everything I had on 4 Nov.400 calls , only to have to leave for the day and find it tanked right after I shut down...

    Please forgive my stupidity, but I'm not understanding the gist of the REFCO and FOREX discussion in relation to the quote. Could you please explain?

    SMALLFIL - Thanks - that was great - I also use those indicators, but probably not as knowlegeably as you. I find different stocks respond better to different indicators, by looking at how they've responded to backtesting. Certain stocks can be said to be bullish as long as they stay above a...

    Is this supposed to mean that NOBODY knows if the markets are open tomorrow (seeing as this is the 4th time I've asked this question in the last few hours)?

    You say I give you the impression I'm guessing my directions (and that may very well be, compared to your methods), but the last few posts on the "My Options Play" thread between CNMS2, ICEMAN1 and THENEWGUY, including your last one, are referring to what best option positions to take on the...

    For Directional traders

    Ever since CNMS2 mentioned volatility (and I thought it was primarily volume) I noticed that the trades you guys have mostly been doing have been flat to start with - that is, the underlyings been moving very little, with the Bolinger Bands narrow, indicating little price movement - and it...
