    Swift changing the deal

    No, Swift has become a blight on the Canadian brokerage industry in my opinion. It has turned into a churn shop (both in terms of employee turn over and high volume share churning). No real trading going on, mainly it's like a cool video game for those who want to take a few months off with...

    Can an OTM option ever be profitable if it never goes ITM?

    Simply look at Delta. If stock is at $55 and OTM $60 call is at .50 with a Delta of .15, when the stock moves up to $56 the 60 call will trade at .65, and so on. Of course time decay (theta) is working against you, it will run from 1-5 cents per day.

    VIX Futures

    OptionsXpress vs. thinkorswim

    Agreed - have had some nightmare cancel times on CBOE and AMEX, resulting in call to brokers to call the exchange. PCX I find so illiquid exepct for a few block trades, would not use it unless I want to hold the market LOL, seems most don't hit it. I always use ISE and love the fills, and...

    Toronto Office

    I never traded the NYSE, only Nasdog. One of the reason I chose quest was no Series 7 required and it is backed by a real brokerage. Prop accounts are not insured anywhere but at least the restof the brokerage is so you know the operation in general is legit. my 2¢

    Easiest way to trade gold?

    XAU and GOX trade as options, only XAU is liquid enough to trade. XAU = philly Gold and Silver index GOX = philly Gold index GLD is best stock trading vehicle bet, surprisingly it does not have options on it yet.

    You guys who do VOLUME, why so much?

    Why? Because their task master - www.swifttrade.com - demands it of them. Their home page brags about a person trading 1 million shares of MSFT in a day.

    Does anybody think oil will Stay down

    I do not think it will hit new highs any time soon, but I suspect supply issues and strife in the Middle East are not going to go away. For that reason I am considering entering XLE long again, it did well today, but I think it has to stay above $40 to be for sure.

    AAPL - A bloodbath in the making

    What are your thoughts on AAPL now? It seems to have lagged too long, ready for a pop? (there was a bad tick of data today, at $37+, so today's candle looks strange). http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/SC.web?c=AAPL,uu[w,a]daclyiay[dc][pb50!b100][vc60][iLp14,3,3!La12,26,9]&pref=G

    Toronto Office

    No complaints on either level, re. the above. I still use CyberTrader Pro but for retail trading (swing)/. Commish was based on volume. I had a pretty good deal at the time, basically the ECN rebates covered all of the commission cost if you trades it right.
