    Anyone knows why charts are spiking?

    Anyone knows why charts are spiking?

    I’m sure you have noticed many spikes(bad trades) on the charts recently. I am seeing on multiple platforms which suggests to me that it is related to data feeds. Did SIPs introduce some new sale condition or started using a combination of sale conditions they did not use before? Wander when...

    Chart gets messed up at the open

    Yes it worked. I suspect it has to do with volume displayed. The official open print has all the volume of opening auction. That is my theory.

    Chart gets messed up at the open

    I think I figured it out. "Scale to Fit Studies" was checked. "Ignore Studies" should be checked.

    Chart gets messed up at the open

    Hello, I started having a problem with chart auto-scaling due to what I suspect a “bad” trade. It only seems to happen right after the market open - the worst time! Anyone experiencing this? Is there a way to filter out these trades? P.S. We all agree IB charts are not best, so not the topic...

    Selling naked calls OTM & covering them just before ITM?

    No such thing in trading, with few exceptions but most likely not attainable at our level.

    Selling naked calls OTM & covering them just before ITM?

    The problem with selling OTM options, imho, is that you paid so little. In your example, you are willing to take ownership of the stock and you will see it run up to your strike, your mind goes- damn, I would have made X but only made X/100 and now may have to buy the top. I just don’t think it...
