    Why do people trade iron condors

    It seems like people are forced to enter these awful trades due to the margin requirements being too high. Margin requirements are designed to protect the brokers and not the customers. So that means customers have to enter bad trade likes iron condors that generate huge commissions for brokers...

    TOS portfolio margin test

    TOS is for ppl who like huge commissions, huge margin fees, huge margin requirements, and bad fills. get a real broker like interactive brokers. even robinhood is much better than TOS. If you use TOS you already lost.

    Pension Funds Selling Puts

    dumb thread. selling puts is the opposite of buying them. buying puts for protection is a bad strategy and you always end up overpaying because puts are too expensive

    how does does it take to calculate the SPX SET?

    like an idiot I forgot to close my SPX spread yesterday. I wonder why no one has thought of creating a software program to find the SPX stock that have not traded and then just executing a single share for all of them

    TD Ameritrade and Think or Swim Option Market Maker Scam

    I know TOS is not a MM. there is some sort of back deal between TOS and market markers, splitting that 7 cents that should be your pocket. More profits for Ameritrade in the end.

    TD Ameritrade and Think or Swim Option Market Maker Scam

    ummm...then why does my entire trade history show multiples of 5 and 10 cents fills? I never got penny increments on my TOS fills unless the option has a penny increment on the control panel. Yeah, swabb fills at 3.43. TOS would fill at $3.5. For big orders, 7 cents makes a big difference

The increments are the big deal. If...
