    Led Zeppelin's Stairway To Heaven and Spirit's Taurus

    Led Zeppelin was the opening act for Spirit. This would be around 1968 or so. :)

    Heads Up - MSFT earnings Thursday

    Heads Up - MSFT earnings Thursday MSFT earnings Thursday April 21 - after the bell. MSFT at $55.59. The 2% OTM (56.50) weekly calls are only $0.82. Buying the 56.50 or 57.00 weekly calls would be a good way to play these earnings. DOW at an all time high. Nasdaq below all time high. Will...

    What can I do about insider trading activity in stock options that cause financial harm?

    Insider Trading isn't as much of a problem as the media portrays it to be. It's next to impossible to predict how a stock will react to news. For every successful "inside trader" there are many more "inside traders" holding the bag - ending up with worthless options. :)

    ALR

    Good to see you updating your threads. I think that's about 3 (perhaps there might be more) that have gone to maximum loss. IBM, AGN, ALR. IMO ...... Looks like the average risk:reward ratio is about 10:1, I think that's too high. So I would reduce that to 5:1 by selling Iron Condors or...

    Straddling Exit Thoughts

    These are Long Straddles I assume. IMO ........ Straddles are too expensive and I would go with either a Call or Put. One exception: QQQ ATM weekly straddle/strangle entered on Thursday - the day before expiry. :)

    I would consider: SPY at $209.90. SPY target by May 31, 2016 minus 10% = $190.00. Buy 50 contracts June 17, 2016 200.00 Puts at $1.96. Debit $10,000. Expected reward $50,000 (P/L plus $40,000). :)

    Where do I get access to intraday data in csv or txt format?

    What can I do about insider trading activity in stock options that cause financial harm?

    Makes no sense. Doesn't an MM have to provided a market for about 10 contracts? A motivated buyer (as in this case) would Buy at the Ask - he wouldn't waste his time trying to buy at the bid. :)

    What can I do about insider trading activity in stock options that cause financial harm?

    But they were trading at about $3.00 expiry Friday. Buy-to-close 40 contacts * 100 * $3.00 = $12,000 Open Interest: 1284 :)

    What can I do about insider trading activity in stock options that cause financial harm?

    If the buyer was motivated why not go for 10+ contracts with a Market Order? Or a Limit Order well above the Ask for 10+ contracts ( my broker will fill it at that price or better). Only 2 or 3 contracts at a time doesn't seem very motivated to me. :)

    What was the weekly OTM put Volume like on Thursday? Any spike of Volume should have been a Red Flag. :)
