there is fantastic FREE options training at 21stcenturyinvestor.com- it takes months not 2 minutes,like forex-as it's a complicated subject-but selling options naked is for idiots who eventually get blown up -check out Taleb and Sornette. Some people sell puts to buy stock at a discount-so you...

I know a lot of failed traders, and I know I'm terrible but options for me are the only way to make profits. You need to work a bit harder but you do not have to be right most of the time- unlike forex or futures which are one dimensional and binary in nature. Most of those traders are quietly...

you cannot keep the proceeds of crime in the UK -but for $5,000 you could probably hire a scumbag to kill this piece of crap

Some madness from VFTSE-this must be a glitch

long and wrong, short and caught -but enough of my predictive powers!

Forget the UK for stock options-and we only have the FTSE100 index no other optionable ETFs AFAIK so I presume you are trading the US market,which is liquid and run by intelligent brokers. the UK is hopeless but I persevere with our site: options investing.co.uk and we post real trades every week

I post my weekly trade ideas each week on the website options investing.co.uk -free education- how cheap are you?

Still looking for people?

Fair comment, but buying the dips may wipe you out one day Sunshine! When volatility comes back your costs will be increased dramatically, you will be paying big for tiny gains as you know as well as I do that vol plummets when the market rises-but you need vol there in the first place-so well...

LIFFE - the history of UK options in '95

You've no idea about a bear market then- QE since 2009 has made geniuses out of a lot of people

You will have to speak with ADM. I've been a client for many years- but you will need a fair chunk of change. You can message me: davideppel1@aim.com

Good to know you guys are still around Mike- haven't seen you since I came along with my old mate Patrick

I trade via the phone with ADM -but the symbol in IB is still Z for ftse options

it's $ 120 a month for the live data feed-which is obscene- all data for the US is free-just shows you what those pathetic numpties in the city hide behind even with their massive advantages

looks like IB does not have ICE.com markets traded through it-scratch that- it's ICEEU https://misc.interactivebrokers.com/cstools/contract_info/v3.9/index.php?action=Details&site=GEN&conid=179888160 The index is Z

On IB I think is is Z though the future on UK markets is ES. You don't need to pay for delayed option prices at ICE, just follow the link, register and then used the dropdown

Ino longer use live data as I get quotes from my broker. Saxo does a demo platform but prices are not live. The only source I found was IB at €30 a month. I trade much longer term these days, and wait for entries to hit my prices. We are royally screwed by the institutions who do not want...

Terrapin 1 from Fool- yes. Been banging the same drum for 15 years

It seems the UK may be waking up to options. I've been trading since '99 and all of my education was thanks to the US educators. We now see the London Trading Group and Saxo Bank offering free training. I have been trying to popularise options as they are so much fun to trade (or they were until...
