Bob, Ditto. Also have missed the top 10 2016 wines, vacation spots, restaurants, cigars, pistols, shotguns, tax preparation software, books, movies, billboard singles, archaeological sites and so on. Steve

I've followed Theresa Carey's column for a long time and have always respected her column and found it to be, in general, unbiased and very useful. Do you have any empirical evidence to support your claim that the 16 brokers listed in the article paid the Dow Jones & Company some undisclosed...

Good morning fellow options traders. A beautiful day here on Florida's Gulf Coast. A high of 74 predicted for today, warm enough for a gin and tonic at the beach this afternoon. And so it will be. Today's Barron's magazine features its 22nd annual rankings of what it has determined to be the...

Last time I checked all the financial markets (e.g. stocks, bonds, forex, futures, options, etc.) traded year round. Money can be made (and lost) any trading day of the year trading any financial instrument. Both by selling or buying, or both at the same time (think credit spreads.)

In my library I have a book entitled Alternative Investment Strategies And Risk Management: Improve Your Investment Portfolio's Risk-Reward Ratio by Etukuru Updated in 2014 it familiarizes the reader with risk management principles and seek out alternative investment strategies to maintain and...

That's why I like the E-mini S&P 500 options (/ES). For example I put on a MAR17 (DTE 17) PUT Vertical credit spread (2300/2295) this morning for $0.50. Risk is $250.00 and I keep the $50 (less about 5.00 in commissions) if it expires OTM*. I find that to be reasonable. Delta 15 on the short...

I pay <1.00 per contract to trade GLD (and other ETFs) at ThinkorSwim. Shop around and/or negotiate commissions if you're paying >1.00 a contract Strikes for the nearby GLD contacts are 50 cents apart. A dollar father out. That's per exchange rules. CME lists Weekly gold (/CG/OG) options and...

OK, Thanks. Futures in the future perhaps? Or no? Nothing wrong with the SPX. Does your trading platform allow for ETH trading in that symbol? Best

Bob, Does the Livevol Options Strategy Scanning Engine scan for spreads on futures options (e.g. /ES, /YM, etc. Thanks

Go for it. Let us know how it all turns out. Perhaps so. But, on the other hand, perhaps not. I checked my list of things to avoid in life and CFDs, Forex, Binary Options, B Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton and scrapple are all on it. As is haggis. Ha en bra dag. :sneaky: Best

TDA's ThinkorSiwm platform. I trade the ES options contracts there daily. Not sure what they require to open a futures/options account. $2000 for an equity options account. Best A screenshot of ToS trading screen for the /ESH7 Week 2 Emini S&P 500 futures options.

My sincere condolences. In any case, Contracts for Difference (CFDs) are not tradeable in the U.S. There are financial rules in place for US (and Canada, Hong, Kong, and others) residents (CFTC, SEC, Treasury , etc.) , which make it impossible to trade CFDs as an individual. It is considered a...

Can't speak to FX as I have nothing to do with the foreign currency exchange market. But, as for the E-mini S&P 500 futures options, there are 4 types of options for the ES. American style (the quarterlys) and European style (EOM, Weekly and Weekly (Wednesday)). To answer your question, Back...

Greetings fellow options traders. Here's link to an interesting (for me at least) article about Tom Sosnoff and the new Tastyworks which appeared in yesterday's (dated 1/3/2017) Barron's magazine...
