And then after exporting, when I open the file it's like this:

ZBZB, thank you for your effort, but I guess I'm too old for this. I set the option chain as I want it and after I click on Add All, it becomes like this:

Sorry, Sir, if you want to help you'll need to guide me please. What should I open in classic TWS view? Option chain? I tried and doesn't allow me to export it.

I guess I don't know what a QuoteMonitor page is. This is what I see on the option chain:

Will try that as well, but a while ago I entered a chat session and the customer service guy said you can only export the portfolio or watch lists.

Just found this link where he uses the Print feature and then selects Export to Excel. Will try your way as well. Thanks a lot.

This is great. And it shows many expirations on the same tab. Can you point to a tutorial or something that would describe how to do it?

How can I export option chain data to Excel? I'm looking for morning data, 30-60 min after the opening. Can TOS do that? I have TOS, but don't use it as I settled for IB in the end. Thanks, Corto

I would not mix Subaru and Integra.

I might be wrong, but it's the chart that makes me optimistic. While the stock moved sideways for the last 3 months, MACD histogram shows higher lows.

I have a Feb long 35 call in TNDM bought at 4.95, currently at 8.10/9.30. Rather than take profits now I'm thinking of letting it run and buying a protective put. What would you advise and why: Buy Feb 35 put at 1.80/1.90 or Buy Feb 42 put at 4.60/5.20 Thank you! By the way, how do you make...

Still waiting for someone on this forum to provide more details on strategies worth pursuing, but all I keep seeing is far from it. Plenty of time and effort is spent on disagreeing with each other which in itself brings no harm as long as some positives can be identified.

It contains what you said you are looking for. I'm an electrical engineer close to retirement and almost all my knowledge came from books that explained things in layman terms and then from decades of experience. Publications at the PHD level were pretty much useless. And the math I use is just...

Amazon has Options as a Strategic Investment: 5th Edition by Lawrence G. McMillan. I bought it few months ago and love it. He indeed describes what you're after. What you need to do when the trade moves against you. He calls it follow up and lists various fixes one can try. He shows several ways...

Yes, this is the idea, but "guessing" when you have a non trending situation is as hard as guessing when yo have a trending one. By using the "" marks I mean you can use whatever indicators or guidelines you please, but it will still be a guess.

El OchoCinco, after some reading I think I got a basic feel about calendars now. Would you advise calendars on the SPX or RUT? The favorable tax treatment definitely is an incentive. Plus no assignment risk at all. Weeklies or monthlies?

By the way, do you mean selling butterflies for a credit or buying them? With a market that's all over the place buying may make some sense, but I might be wrong.

The last one I bought is Options as a Strategic Investment by Lawrence McMillan. Many were saying if you only have to have one options book, this is the one you need. It seems indeed pretty comprehensive and detailed; on almost every strategy he describes methods on how to adjust , some more...

I have never played those ones and would appreciate if you could steer me into some good educational reading or maybe some old threads on the topic. Thank you.
