What is ACM?

In simpler terms ........ BUY

I would consider going long on the QQQQ puts or calls the day before any announcements. If you expect the market to go down buy ATM puts. The weekly QQQQ options are cheap and it doesn't take much to move them.

Apple should look into using the human body as the antenna. I have a set of rabbit ears from Radio Shack for my TV which need constant adjustment and the best reception is when I'm holding them. -----

Stop losses. Buying options is very expensive. --

Lets keep things simple. When selling options your maximum profit is the premium received ........... maximum loss is UNLIMITED.

Same thing with POT, and the reason as mentioned in previous posts was Expected Growth in China. http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=POT+Basic+Chart&t=2y

I don't think so, a strangle deep in the money doesn't make sense. Chuckybrown70 must have found the holy grail with all the secrecy and preferring PM's for communication, Range Rover is going to get good private mentoring. Lucky guy :D

Three games sucks, they must rake in the dough. I'm in BC and the British Columbia Lotto Corp (BCLC) requires only a minimum of 2 games. Be warned though that their odds are wrong so many times, so be careful about betting for the favorite. The game is called Oddset...

Your choices are: Buy Puts Sell Calls Sell Puts Call Credit Spreads Put Credit Spreads Put Debt Spreads All the above may produce a profit - or loss - depending on the extent of AMZN's decline during your time frame and the strike prices you choose.

Need more info. In your "examples" you must provided accurate and complete data. What is "long or short"? Are you shorting AMZN by buying puts? Or do you mean buying and/or selling options? Again what are you selling? Calls, Puts?

Your profits - if any - would be very slim, not worth the risk. You need more than a 2 dollar move. Check out the QQQQ options, they are cheap and pack a lot of punch on small QQQQ moves.

It's easy to calculate: Total cost for calls and puts = $2.29 Call strike $65.00 + $2.29 = $67.90 Put strike $62.50 - $2.29 = 60.21 Commission = ????????? The stock must trade higher than $67.90 or lower than $60.21 to profit, plus enough to offset the commission. Looks like you need...

I would go with buying the QQQQ options, instead of the MSFT options. The QQQQ weeklies are very cheap. ---

I would like to know if the weekly trade tomorrow? http://finance.yahoo.com/q/op?s=MSFT+Options According to Yahoo: Expire at close Thursday, July 22, 2010

And at this point you have reached maximum profit so it's best to close the entire position. Rule of thumb: When the short leg reaches ITM close the position on both a Debt and Credit spread. ----------------

The way his question is posted it must be a short spread, otherwise he would be at a profit.

Once a leg reaches ITM you should close the entire spread and take the loss. The whole idea of spreads is you want them to expire OTM. -------------
