These guys are doing a 2 day seminar in Atl this weekend. Would like to hear from any option traders who have attended. Is the information worth 1k? Especially for the pro trader who seeks to better his returns. ross

What is the deal with the Dec call options in this thing?, they are terribly undervalued. FMV for the dec 80 calls is 2.29 yet the inside is 1.25, exactly where it was when MO was at 71.50 last week. Anyone know what's going on? Ross

Is this the forbes steve cohen pic? ross

I have several trades that have been executed in small clips (i.e. 10,000 shares in fifty 200 shr lots over 2-3 weeks time.) Does anyone have an excel sheet you can post that will take all 50 trades at their various prices and spit out an average price? If so, please post. My new execution...

I don't necessarily disagree with those against trading on disaster, tragedy and mayhem. Just one little question: Do you trade phillip morris and any cigarette stock, pumping liquidity into an industry that creates perpetual death, mayhem, and Tsunami like family tragedies?...just measuring...

Max leverage trading equities only that is. ross

For all you alliance traders what is the max leverage given to a licenced trader, is 4 to 1 it?, I hope not. Please let me know. Ross

Axe, You hit the nail on the head. I'm amazed at how many posts I received taking up for the broker because it was obviously an "error", yet when flipping the exact same example they agree I wouldn't get a dime back. This is crazy. rossmedia

Well, Everyday billions are made because somebody makes "dumb" mistakes. In this case it was my broker...I guess you think I should pay for their "dumbness"...You did remember they have admitted the mistake was totally theirs don't you? Rossmedia

Thanks Ebo, I appreciate it. Don I'll PM you with the complaint I've filed with the NASD with all the details. Rossmedia

Thank you for your insight. As for EBO, his comments are immaterial, unthoughtful, and most of all down right incorrect. I made the trade. Below is a copy from the amex page for fridays options. I suggest you go to amex.com and search for yourself. Anyway, I hit the opening quote of 23.30. As I...

Good question, Honestly, my thinking is to try and resolve this issue amicably with my broker before publically naming them. I will however, when I'm certain they will not mediate or arbitrate this through NASD, post their name here, along with remaining details. I'm open to any contrarian...

Ebo, Also, I didn't sell PRE-SPLIT premiums genuis. I sold post split premiums, THE ISSUE IS THE SYMBOLS CHANGED BUT MY BROKER DIDNT CHANGE THEM IN MY ACCOUNT. MY $60 puts should HAVE been changed to $30 puts, DO YOU GET IT NOW! Rossmedia

Hey Ebo, 1. My trade printed on the AMEX, go to their site and check. I am the print at 23.30 at 9:33 a.m. for 15 contracts. It's in the historical anals of the exchange. 2. There was not DATA feed error, even my broker admits that, in fact the TASR QURRL is now trading way above where I...

I understand the math, that's the easy part. The question is can the broker get away with the carelessness of not changing the symbol, and would he be gracious and give me back my money if I made an "error" rossmedia

All valid points travel down two way streets...So if I sell a position for 10 instead of 100 because of an error, there should be no problem in getting my money back....Somehow I don't think that would happen. rossmedia

ok, I was holding TASR options for 7 days, on yesterday I wake up and check my account..My options were up +23 points on 15 contracts. I immediately hit the inside bid on the AMEX and sold for a respectable profit. Seeing that TASR can drop $30 in one day I just figured I caught its next run...

I will contact microsoft and ask that very question. If it is a shared dll what can I do about it? rossmedia

Don't think that's it. It has something to do with the flow of data coming form esignal resetting my software once a minute or so. rossmedia

I use esingal as my charting software, but I also use Microsoft works calendar as my daily planner. Each time I open esignal the planning software goes crazy and sends reminders of to-do tasks every 60 seconds or so...it's extremely annoying. Any help would be useful. rossmedia
