    Trajan's second option journal

    I have a secret part of my trading stategy which will be revealed right here, right now. I find that it is sometimes very effective to sleep in. Yeah, I know what your saying, doesn't it work the opposite way as well? Of course, I've lost lost money from not being there on the open for a...

    Leasing exchange membership

    I should say that the warrant for the guy was dropped and was bullshit considering it was his girlfriend who tthen became his wife who made the claim. The warrant was very old and obscure.

    Trajan's second option journal

    As far as the Journal goes, it was really slow and I lost interest after not having anything to post for a couple of days. Things change, so now I'll keep try to keep track for a while. I traded 347 contracts on Tuesday. I was shocked myself. My position right now is long 84 of the May 15...

    Optionsxpress is a great firm, however they couldn't give me the level of support I need for my trading.

    Leasing exchange membership

    Actually no, my boss on the the Merc was on the membership committee and we discussed this because I had a DUI. They do check everything and are very thorough. There was a guy in our group who was investigated by the FBI because of an old warrant the CBOT investigators discovered. However, as...

    How much capital is needed as on option local ?

    I bet it is probably 50k right now. The best way to find out is to call First Options or Sage, I ditto the recently upgraded RS8.5's description of people at these organizations. Foc would be the best place to start with since it a huge organization with many subgroups. Itself is a sub of...

    Stop dealing options

    I agree with one caveat, if your sending a pick off order don't be pissed if they fade. MMs have an obligation to make fair and orderly two sided markets, don't be mad at him if the stock tanks 1/2 a point on a tick and the OBO is slow to get rid of a bid in the book. If the situation...

    Stop dealing options

    It's why I would never go back on an option floor ever again. On the CBOE, you were exepcted to trade every piece of garbage if one of the senior people in the pits opened their mouth. I would say that at least half of the people there couldn't make a market on their own. They just raised...

    Let's All Bash Each Other To Bits!

    Couldn't you have added another perjorative in your rant? "Fat ugly ass fools" instead of just "ugly ass fools". We Americans are the fatest on the planet, you must be an ignorant European not to realize this.

    Let's All Bash Each Other To Bits!

    Yeah, I'm pissed that I didn't register QDZ4 myself. A good bash? OK. Who the fuck are these people who show up in the options forum looking for the magic bullet? I mean , there are profits to be made in derivatives but come on. Why don't don't you lazy fuckers do some work. Who are...

    Stop dealing options

    This sentence alone illustrates your total ignorance of the markets. As I said before , these rules suck and, yes, they exist to preserve profit margins. It has been rather ineffective in pursuit of this goal. I think you may be QDZ and Harrytrader combined! Is this possible?

    The Idiot's Guide to Premium and Fair Value

    Is there a ticker for the bid/ask of the cash S&P 500. In other words, a combined quote of the underlying equities. I remember seeing it at either the Merc or CBOT, think it was the Merc. Never seen it any place else.

    Stop dealing options

    It is poor form the way QDZ does it. I wholeheartedly support his efforts to get rid this stuff. I just don't support him. Maybe he has a weird online personality that he express here and is normally a good guy, but he needs a serious attitude adjustment. He has crossed the line from...

    Stop dealing options

    Sail does have valid points, however, he neglects to mention customer advantages. The most important one being priority over MMs. It was nice today to get berries in front of the crowd after they had been on that market longer than me. Some days it seems I get everything and others days...

    Hey, I was going to make that comment. Mine was going to be,"What, is QDZ4 taken?".

    Why We Should Hate Europe

    Our elites come from Germany? JP Morgan started in London. Actually, the Irish probably are the most prominent ethnic group. Bill Clinton was Irish.
