    LMAO @ Charlie Sheen. Porn star recants crack binge and $30k check. WTF?

    Thread title is wrong. Recants means "To make a formal retraction or disavowal of a previously held statement or belief." The porn star wasn't recanting anything, she was more like confirming the drugs and money.

    Assume lets say, that you know exact date and time of Collapse

    I would buy 1 or 2 strike OTM QQQQ and DIA puts. See my post in the "Anybody want to back my movie idea" thread: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3065558#post3065558

    Need help understanding my risks !!!

    But the after hours GAP can be your friend. With cheap weekly options a GAP can produce a huge return if you are a buyer. So consider buying options also. :) :) :)

    Weekly Option Assignment?

    You have nothing to worry about - Just sell if the option reaches ATM, which is what you probably do anyway.

    $25,000 minimum for daytrading needs to be changed

    And how is it more risky to hold stocks or options for one day as compared to overnight? I would think overnight is more risky because of gaps.

    $25,000 minimum for daytrading needs to be changed

    Then why do they allow option and future trades? If they were worried about under-funded traders they would implement a $25,000 minimum on ALL trading accounts.

    $25,000 minimum for daytrading needs to be changed

    I agree - $25,000 minimum is a joke, and the 90 day suspension is insane. I recently closed an option position that had a slight delay in confirmation. I then made a 2nd attempt to close only to end up opening another position, I then closed that position within a minute. They considered...

    No to the DITM calls. If you expect a 40% increase you buy OTM calls.

    Should moderators arbitrary closes their own threads?

    I agree .......... The thread in question should not have been closed. He didn't like the responses so he closes the thread, "my way or the highway" was his attitude.

    IB Pricing Question

    Even with the 15 minute delay Yahoo quotes are good enough to base your trade on - right up till you are ready to submit. Just use the broker for the final quote.

    IB Pricing Question

    The only way to know for sure is to give it a try and see what price you get, it's only $12.00. I always use market orders with IB.

    IB Pricing Question

    Yahoo data is very good, and easier to access than your brokers data.- The OP's trade has already shown up, he sold one or two contracts. http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=SVNT110319P00010000 IB and Yahoo option quotes are usually the same. My guess is that if the OP entered a market order, or...

    India to trade gold for oil with Iran.

    No matter how they trade it all filters down to one common denominator - US DOLLAR. If Iran wants payment in gold the amount of gold will be based on its value in US dollars, if they want payment in EURO it will be based on EUR/USD. The USD is the Worlds default currency, and will be for a...
