Thanks so much . Very good eye opening replies from everybody. Another question if you all donot mind Are there weekly options on any ETF? In that case I would be exercised at the end of the week .

Thanks Mark. Good reply for education I will try iron condor as you have outlined.

Is there any food item, any minerals and supplements that will help to become happy. Anything except drugs? Thanks

def IB is great in many many aspects. I wish they charge reasonable margins in option trades. I have a small a/c and these days I can just do 2 trades and I am down in available funds which is not acceptable for risk management. I hope you will consider this. Probably commission income is...

Somebody else has told me that ODL allows £0.50 per point on FTSE and spread is only one point. I will try to check it out.

I would like to do spreadbetting using FTSE cash at 0.50p per point. I can gradually increase it to £1 or £2 as I practice more. Would any spreadbetting firm allow me to do this? Thanks

Any idea how I can use replay feature ? I am using IB and QT . Help much appreciated as I would seriously like to do this .

Thanks for starting this thread. It is worth trying renco charts side by side as well. Try 20 or 30 box size and you can see trend changes very clearly. Drawback is whipsaws but still worth in a good trending market. Any body else any opinion on renco charts? Thanks
