Why don't you put in $1 million? At the end, you doubled it and you got another $1 million?:confused:

Multioption, finally another winning trade from you! :D Would you mind sharing the exit rules, too? Thanks!

hajimow, how many contracts would you buy for the GOOG 340 puts?

Yes, because you are paying for the b/a spread. If you don't like paying the spread, just buy the underlying stock if you have the money. The spread in the underlying stock is always tighter than the option spread.

Riskarb, why would someone betting so big and in an obvious way? Wouldn't there be other forces trying to trade against this bet? And why wouldn't he do it in batches, so it would not be so obvious? May be he is doing something besides this butterfly?? :confused:

:D You can bid at any price you want, but if you are very eager to get filled now, you hit the ask. If you are willing to wait, you can always put it in between the b/a or sitting at the bid.

Save $500 per month, and go live after 6 months? So $3k would be enough for your comeback?? Seriously you should save till you got at least 25k. And by that time if your paper trading account is still doing very well, then you will have more confidence to go in.

7 million...:eek: If you repeat your 50% gain this year, you will be in 8 figures! :D Good job.

Is your portfolio in 7 figures? Or high 6 figures?

hajimow: I think your INTC play would probably "yak jiu" in the short run. Novel Hint: Ask any of your friend who knows Cantonese.

Thanks, Multioption. Will keep monitoring PAYX. Will seriously consider buy the PAYX Mar 37.5 calls if it is showing an ACAS move. Good luck! :D

Multioption, are you ready to long anything now? As for the PAYX Mar 37.50, they are now 0.65/0.75. Are you going to keep holding? By the way, Multioption, I appreciate your generosity in giving out picks. Please share some good picks like the ones that gave you 45k profit from 100k...

Do you guys think the specialist likes to trade against me? Say right after I buy, he or she will somehow manipulate the price down until I give up? Or say right after I sell short, he or she will jack up the price so I will have to cover at a loss? Does the specialist hate people who...

kalzayani, Would you please explain a little more? Thanks! Novel

:D

Multioption, are you in any other trades now? The PAYX Mar 37.5 calls are now 0.90/1.00. Is now a good opportunity to buy now? Thanks!

Option coach, you still don't get my point. Look at what DonnaV and liulala wrote and you see how newbies fall into the trap of cherry picking the suggested trades, not blindly following all of them. If Steve is as good as he seems to be, I will follow all of his suggested trades. The...

liulala, read my response to DonnaV about cherry picking the suggested trades by option alert. In short, if you are better than Steve such that you think you can cherry pick his suggested trades, then you don't need to subscribe to the option alert. And if you are the 50/50 normal people...

Thanks for the clarification, Steve. Have you accounted for the commissions? Look forward to your new trades. Thanks for responding to my inquiry. :D
