    do most option buyers do the greeks calculations etc..

    All this "math" is making things more confusing then what it has to be. If your volatility is trading at 40% and the SPY is trading at 80.00 (just for an example), all this is saying is that the expected move over a year for the SPY is $32.00 EITHER way. A 10.00 stock trading at 100%...

    If the "Trading Tax" is Passed

    It's still a good thing that the people with money still make the rules in this country. We have nothing to fear. Nothing like a few million for a political campaign to keep this off the books.

    To sum it up, what they said in the meeting today is the existing customers will be grandfathered in. Commissions, platfrom, everything. They will be adding futures and forex by the time that the merger comes around. Tom and Scott will stay in charge of the active trader part(thinkorswim...

    After listening to Tom and Scott after market close today for the TOS traders, I feel ALOT better about this. Listen to them whenever they have the meeting up on the site and you will be surprised.

    I draw a crap load of lines, will it work?

    For starters I use the same software as you so this will work.
